Education OS v1.0

The Human Systems Standard

A common language and safety-first framework for building, diagnosing, and correcting human systems

Education OS is a general standard for understanding and improving how human systems work — including individuals, schools, organizations, and societies — in a way that prioritizes human dignity, shared reality, and safe self-correction.

This page defines what Education OS is, what modules are official, how compliant implementations are defined, and how the standard is maintained.

What Education OS is

Education OS is a structured framework for:

  • understanding how human capability is built
  • diagnosing why outcomes rise, stall, or collapse
  • identifying binding constraints and failure loops
  • choosing humane recovery paths
  • protecting people and shared reality during correction

It is not a product.
It is a standardized language and safety framework for human systems.

Official modules of Education OS v1.0

Education OS v1.0 consists of the following official modules:

  • DLT — Capability Engine
    Defines how real human capability is built, renewed, and sustained.
    /dlt/
  • OHME-e/t — Human Outcome Physics
    Diagnoses outcome trajectories under constraints over time.
    /ohme-et/
  • Collapse Signatures — Failure Loop Library
    Defines repeatable collapse and regression patterns.
    /collapse-signatures/
  • Environment Constraints — Hard Ceiling Diagnostics
    Defines binding environmental ceilings and substitution limits.
    /environment-constraints/
  • MCL — Meta-Control Layer
    Defines safety, truth-protection, and humane correction governance.
    /mcl/
  • OHME-e/t Tools — Executable Diagnostics
    Provides scoring and recovery instruments.
    /ohme-et-tools/

These modules together form the Education OS Core Stack.

What “Education OS compliant” means

An Education OS compliant implementation is one that:

  • uses DLT to define real capability standards
  • uses OHME-e/t to diagnose outcome trends
  • identifies binding constraints and failure loops
  • applies recovery modes in humane order
  • applies MCL safety gates to protect people and shared reality
  • avoids using metrics or models to justify harm, erasure, or coercion

Compliance means the system is using Education OS as a human-protective diagnostic framework, not as a control weapon.

What Education OS explicitly does not allow

Education OS may not be used to:

  • erase or invalidate real people, cultures, or histories
  • deny dignity, safety, or basic human worth
  • justify harm using “system optimization” language
  • enforce ideology by suppressing truth
  • classify people as disposable system parts

Education OS exists to protect humans, not to rank them out of existence.

Versioning

Relationship to EduKate OS

Education OS is the open standard.
EduKate OS is the reference implementation and distribution of the standard.

Education OS defines the rules.

Next layers in the standard

The Education OS Standard is supported by:

  • Scoring Rubrics
  • Certification Criteria
  • Case Archives
  • Implementation Guides
  • Safety Charter

These define how the standard is measured, adopted, and protected.

This page establishes Education OS as a formal human systems standard — not just a framework.
