Tactic Dev builds scalable systems at the intersection of AI, automation, and web development.
We design products and frameworks that let teams move from concept → deployment with speed, precision, and creative control.
Our mission:
To turn complex technology into usable, elegant systems that scale.
Meet Tux, a secure, LLM-powered Linux system administrator that understands natural language and executes system tasks safely.
Instead of memorizing terminal commands, you tell Tux what you need — and it plans, validates, and executes securely.
- 🔒 Defense in Depth — 4-layer security model: Flatpak UI + User Agent + Sandboxed Adapters + Polkit System Service
- 🚫 Zero Direct Access — LLM and UI have NO direct host access; all privilege escalation via Polkit
- 📦 Bubblewrap Sandboxing — Read-only/limited-write adapters run in isolated namespaces
- 🔐 Polkit Authorization — Every privileged action requires user authentication
- 📦 Package Management — Install, update, remove packages with natural language
- 💾 Storage Operations — List devices, mount/unmount, disk usage analysis
- ⚙️ System Control — Start/stop services, check status, manage systemd units
- 🧠 Multi-Step Planning — LLM generates execution plans with reasoning before acting
Tux embodies our philosophy: powerful automation without compromising security.
- Full-stack web & app development
