# Welcome to Dimensional

> An open source modern operating system for generalist robotics. Python-first and agent native.

**DimOS** is a modular robotics runtime: you write small **modules**, wire them into a **blueprint**, and run that stack with `dimos run` - on quadrupeds, humanoids, arms, and drones. Simple install, entirely Python, no ROS required.

It is **agent native** in a precise sense: robot capabilities are exposed as skills an LLM can call over MCP, so "Hey robot, go find the kitchen" is a supported control surface - and every skill also works from the CLI with no LLM involved.

Start with the [Quickstart](/quickstart): fifteen minutes from install to replaying a robot session and talking to an agent, no hardware needed.
