# About
Dimensional is the modern operating system for generalist robotics. We are setting the next-generation SDK standard, integrating with the majority of robot manufacturers.
With a simple install and no ROS required, build physical applications entirely in python that run on any humanoid, quadruped, or drone.
Dimensional is agent native -- "vibecode" your robots in natural language and build (local & hosted) multi-agent systems that work seamlessly with your hardware. Agents run as native modules — subscribing to any embedded stream, from perception (lidar, camera) and spatial memory down to control loops and motor drivers.

# Installation
## Guided installation (recommended)
Use the official installer to set up system dependencies, Python 3.12, and dimOS:
```sh skip
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dimensionalOS/dimos/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
```
> See [`scripts/install.sh --help`](scripts/install.sh) for non-interactive and advanced options.
See [installer options](docs/installation/index.md), or platform notes:
- 🟩 [Ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04](docs/installation/ubuntu.md)
- [NixOS / General Linux (not CI-tested)](docs/installation/nix.md)
- 🟧 [macOS](docs/installation/osx.md)
> Full system requirements, tested configs, and dependency tiers: [docs/requirements.md](docs/requirements.md)
## Manual installation
If you need to install without the script, follow the system-package and Python steps for [Ubuntu](docs/installation/ubuntu.md#manual-installation), [macOS](docs/installation/osx.md#manual-installation), or [Nix](docs/installation/nix.md#manual-installation).
## Quickstart
Activate the environment using the command printed by the installer, then run:
```bash
# Replay a recorded quadruped session (no hardware needed)
# NOTE: First run will show a black rerun window while ~75 MB downloads from LFS
dimos --replay run unitree-go2
```
```bash
# The installer's default extras include simulation support.
# Run quadruped in MuJoCo simulation
dimos --simulation run unitree-go2
# Run humanoid in simulation
dimos --simulation run unitree-g1-sim
```
```bash
# Control a real robot (Unitree quadruped over WebRTC)
export ROBOT_IP=<YOUR_ROBOT_IP>
dimos run unitree-go2
```
# Featured Runfiles

> Full blueprint docs: [docs/usage/blueprints.md](docs/usage/blueprints.md)
# Agent CLI and MCP
The `dimos` CLI manages the full lifecycle — run blueprints, inspect state, interact with agents, and call skills via MCP.
```bash
dimos run unitree-go2-agentic --daemon # Start in background
dimos status # Check what's running
dimos log -f # Follow logs
dimos agent-send "explore the room" # Send agent a command
dimos mcp list-tools # List available MCP skills
dimos mcp call move_to --arg x=0.5 --arg relative=true # Call a skill directly
dimos stop # Shut down
```
> Full CLI reference: [docs/usage/cli.md](docs/usage/cli.md)
# dimTELE: Remote Teleop
**dimTELE** is hosted teleoperation for DimOS robots: operate them remotely from any browser or Quest headset over WebRTC. The robot dials out to a hosted broker, so you don't need to open any inbound ports on the robot's network. It works behind a home router, on Wi-Fi, wired LAN, or cellular.
1. Open the [Dimensional console](https://console.dimensional.org/console/keys), sign in, and create an API key (**API keys → Create key**).
2. Run a teleop blueprint on the robot, passing the key as `TRANSPORTS__BROKER__API_KEY`:
```bash
# Robot dials out to the broker with your API key
TRANSPORTS__BROKER__API_KEY=<your-api-key> \
dimos run teleop-hosted-go2-transport
```
3. Your robot appears under **Available Robots** — click **Connect** and drive the robot from the browser.
| Blueprint | Notes |
|-----------|-------|
| `teleop-hosted-go2-transport` | Browser teleop — drive + camera + minimap + click-to-nav (recommended) |
| `teleop-hosted-go2-multicam` | Adds a second RealSense, operator-selectable, mux'd into one video track |

# Usage
## Use DimOS as a Library
See below a simple robot connection module that sends streams of continuous `cmd_vel` to the robot and receives `color_image` to a simple `Listener` module. DimOS Modules are subsystems on a robot that communicate with other modules using standardized messages.
```py skip
import threading, time, numpy as np
from dimos.core.coordination.blueprints import autoconnect
from dimos.core.core import rpc
from dimos.core.module import Module
from dimos.core.stream import In, Out
from dimos.msgs.geometry_msgs import Twist
from dimos.msgs.sensor_msgs import Image, ImageFormat
class RobotConnection(Module):
cmd_vel: In[Twist]
color_image: Out[Image]
@rpc
def start(self):
threading.Thread(target=self._image_loop, daemon=True).start()
def _image_loop(self):
while True:
img = Image.from_numpy(
np.zeros((120, 160, 3), np.uint8),
format=ImageFormat.RGB,
frame_id="camera_optical",
)
self.color_image.publish(img)
time.sleep(0.2)
class Listener(Module):
color_image: In[Image]
@rpc
def start(self):
self.color_image.subscribe(lambda img: print(f"image {img.width}x{img.height}"))
if __name__ == "__main__":
autoconnect(
RobotConnection.blueprint(),
Listener.blueprint(),
).build().loop()
```
## Blueprints
Blueprints are instructions for how to construct and wire modules. We compose them with
`autoconnect(...)`, which connects streams by `(name, type)` and returns a `Blueprint`.
Blueprints can be composed, remapped, and have transports overridden if `autoconnect()` fails due to conflicting variable names or `In[]` and `Out[]` message types.
A blueprint example that connects the image stream from a robot to an MCP-backed LLM agent for reasoning and action execution.
```py skip
from dimos.core.coordination.blueprints import autoconnect
from dimos.core.transport import LCMTransport
from dimos.msgs.sensor_msgs import Image
from dimos.robot.unitree.go2.connection import go2_connection
from dimos.agents.mcp.mcp_client import McpClient
from dimos.agents.mcp.mcp_server import McpServer
blueprint = autoconnect(
go2_connection(),
McpServer.blueprint(),
McpClient.blueprint(),
).transports({("color_image", Image): LCMTransport("/color_image", Image)})
# Run the blueprint
if __name__ == "__main__":
blueprint.build().loop()
```

# Development
## Develop on DimOS
```sh skip
export GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1
git clone https://github.com/dimensionalOS/dimos.git
cd dimos
# Run the default test suite (uv run syncs deps on demand; --all-groups
# only needed for self-hosted tests / mypy — see docs/development/testing.md)
uv run pytest --numprocesses=auto dimos
```
## Multi Language Support
Python is our glue and prototyping language, but we support many languages via LCM interop.
Check our language interop examples:
- [C++](examples/language-interop/cpp/)
- [Lua](examples/language-interop/lua/)
- [TypeScript](examples/language-interop/ts/)
