Conjure OS is a local-first, phone-native workspace built for anyone who wants to create or customize their own tools—with zero coding experience required. Written entirely on a phone, it avoids heavy Node.js build chains, generating local web apps and native Android APKs directly on your device.
It began with a question: How can I capture my fleeting thoughts without looking at a screen? A traditional notepad forces you to unlock your phone, open an app, and navigate menus—diluting your flow. I wanted something completely seamless: Headless Capture.
By mapping physical hardware keys, I record my voice with a blank screen.
The raw audio stream is transcribed through OpenRouter, landing directly into my private inbox. When I first started working on Conjure OS, capturing thoughts was all I wanted. But then I began experimenting with PHP and realized it could build almost any tool I needed.
I started creating my own daily apps, adding functions that made practical sense for my work, and they worked. When I built the Lesson Planner, I discovered the stack was fully capable of handling complex, stable systems. That’s when I realized I didn't need a desktop computer or the heavy setups recommended by coding videos—I could build my own workspace directly on my phone.
I'm releasing Conjure OS for everybody to use in the hope that this system can be as useful to you as it has been to me. I'm not sure how much value it can bring considering how fast AI is moving forward, but I hope I can make a difference here :)
Watch raw, unstructured insights distill fluidly into actionable execution files on your local drive.
True capture requires no screen time. Map physical hardware keys (like holding the power button or volume rocker) to capture voice notes stealthily in the background. Your raw audio is transcribed through the OpenRouter API and landed directly into your inbox stream, bypassing touchscreen friction completely.
Select the scattered thoughts about the community block party project in chronological order, then click merge.
We need to confirm the food truck vendor line-up for the block party. I think Sarah was looking into the taco truck, but let's make sure we have a vegetarian option too.
Ugh, I really need to drink more water today. My skin feels so dry and it's supposedly super good for energy levels anyway.
Need to draft the sound system requirements and contact the rental shop. Phone number is like 555-0192, and I think they are open 9 to 5, but maybe closed on Sundays?
That guy at the coffee shop was not nice today. It's too bad, he must have been having a really rough day, hope it gets better for him.
Oh, also, volunteer sign-up sheets. I need to send them out to the neighborhood email group before tonight so people can claim shifts early.
Thoughts arrive as fragments. With Selection Mode and Sequential Copying, tap passing insights in chronological order to stitch them into a single clean memo or structured blueprint without losing your place.
Everything can be a project, and every project is just a clean, portable Markdown file (`.md`). Converse with your local AI companion to package raw conversational streams, plans, or mood logs. The system manages your centralized Knowledge Directory, registers custom workflow shortcuts with `commandify`, and exports immutable Session Capsules so you can pick up any brainstorm later on any device with zero context loss.
Imagine a world where you aren't forced to conform to bloated commercial apps. Imagine being able to create any tool you want, tailored to your specific quirks, incorporating ideas that are never before seen in commercial software. Here are some apps that I have developed to eliminate friction in my work and daily life:
A Custom Tool for Educators: As an English teacher, class prep traditionally meant cross-referencing printed textbooks, manually extracting vocabulary, typing separate lesson plans, student tests, and answer sheets, composing supervisor posts on Trello, uploading pages to Dropbox, converting everything to PDFs, and downloading them manually to import into an iPad.
The solution: Scanned textbooks are parsed into an offline database with OCR. Now, prepping is just click-click-click-save. A single tap programmatically generates all documents, publishes review logs to Trello, streams files to Dropbox, and automatically loads a custom pre-composed classroom Whiteboard canvas on the iPad.
Commercial workout apps offer great isolated features but force you onto proprietary clouds filled with ads, social bloat, and subscription paywalls. AtlasTrack aggregates custom exercise logging, rest timers, and performance charting into a single, cohesive private tracking app designed exactly for your routine, keeping your raw health telemetry strictly offline.
A visual, zero-configuration system deployer. With a single click, Orbit provisions cloud VPS servers, maps dynamic Cloudflare DNS routes, registers secure reverse tunnels (via Cloudflare and Tailscale), and sets up authentication gatekeepers. It takes the pain out of host management, allowing you to secure and deploy any of your malleable micro-apps with zero command-line friction.
These included demo apps are fully functional and completely malleable. If you want to modify them or build upon them to better suit your own workflow, you can immediately do so directly on your device:
AppDescription
Because the entire ecosystem is malleable, your tools never live in isolated silos. If you plan a syllabus in the Lesson Planner, you can instantly weave your data onto your infinite Whiteboard canvas. Or if you record workouts in AtlasTrack and want an AI Agent to act as a recovery coach, you simply ask the AI companion to create a simple API (a data bridge) so your Agent can read your gym logs and write personalized rest-day advice directly into your app.
Conjure Runtime is a native Android application that transforms your phone into a self-contained local web server. Access your entire workspace and any created web apps from any device—laptop, tablet, desktop, or iPad—connected over the same Wi-Fi network, personal Hotspot, or remotely via Tailscale integration.
Maps physical phone hardware buttons to trigger background voice recording instantly with a blank screen.
A floating ball overlay offering a quick-access mobile development dashboard and system controls anywhere on Android.
Compiles web apps into signed native Android APKs—enabling true full-screen mode, split-screen multitasking, and floating windows.
Four under-the-hood stability mechanisms work in synergy to ensure your workspace evolves safely without code loss or unrecoverable errors.
Enforces exact find-and-replace diffs instead of full-file rewrites. The visual diff view makes supervising AI updates simple—even if you don't write code. You instantly see the target file names, which parts of the code remain untouched, and the exact lines being changed. Combined with a mandatory comment explaining the AI's reasoning, you maintain total oversight over your workspace.
Generates lightweight structural skeletons by stripping function bodies down to signatures (~90% token reduction). This skeletonization allows your AI companion to inspect your entire project architecture at once, fetching full source files only when preparing surgical edits.
Every code patch appends a plain-text summary into a permanent edit log. More than just a human record, this log acts as an automated memory bridge for the AI—allowing new chat sessions to instantly pick up recent changes so development remains continuous and seamless across sessions.
Refined Section 5 cards in Launch Site: added JIT Context Exporter and explicit reasoning comments on surgical diff patches.
Optimized Whiteboard floating viewports and added stylus tilt gesture support for seamless tool switching.
Engineered Two-Phase JIT Context Exporter for ~90% token reduction via brace-depth skeletonization.
An unkillable, standalone recovery terminal isolated from main database logic. If custom code encounters a syntax fault, roll back to clean system edit checkpoints instantly.
Conjure OS kernel sandbox environment active and shielded.
To test the unkillable error safety architecture, trigger a simulated system execution fault.
The error shield has safely isolated the active workspace. A custom code update encountered a fatal crash syntax block. Lockout averted.
100% built by AI, directed and evolved by an English teacher with zero coding background. This entire operating system was written on a phone from the very beginning. It creates local web apps and builds native Android APKs directly on-device—without ever needing a desktop computer.
Conjure OS works directly inside any web chat window—ChatGPT, Claude, Google Gemini, or local models. Export lightweight context, paste it into the chat, converse, generate surgical diff patches, and copy the patch block back to apply live updates on your phone with zero API keys or extra fees required.
