Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 9, Documentation: 8, Utility: 4)

CambiOS is a Rust-based microkernel operating system designed around cryptographic identity, zero-trust IPC, and verified binary execution, targeting x86_64, AArch64, and RISC-V. Its ambitious security model and content-addressed object store represent a novel combination of modern OS research concepts, though it remains in early development with limited real-world applicability.

Target audience: systems programmers, security researchers, OS developers
