An independent agent kernel platform for task planning, tool orchestration, provider abstraction, and plugin-driven execution.

operator-kernel is the new-brand successor layer in the AICode-Nexus portfolio.

• claude-code-runtime proves compatibility-oriented CLI workflows.
• claude-code-playbook explains the architecture and research trail.
• operator-kernel extracts the reusable core into a provider-agnostic SDK and execution engine.

• Stable public abstractions: Kernel, Task, ExecutionPlan, Tool, Provider, Plugin
• Mock-provider execution path for deterministic testing
• Reference CLI shell to demonstrate the kernel is callable, not just conceptual
