Reference
gatOS has a friendly face, but its interfaces are proper contracts. This section is where paths, formats, units, gates, command timing, and sharp edges live.
Pick the right book
Section titled “Pick the right book”| Need | Start here |
|---|---|
Read or write /sim | Conventions, then Vessels and Controls |
| Query from another program | HTTP or MQTT and serial |
| Automate a sequence | Batches and schedules |
| Compose a shot or play a clip | Camera or Audio and display |
| Repaint a vehicle, part, or EVA | Vehicle and EVA paint |
| Change runtime behavior | Configuration and mounts |
| Check what is ready for a flight | Status and limitations |
Canonical sources
Section titled “Canonical sources”These pages are the player-readable projection of the contract. The root
SPEC_9P_FILESYSTEM.md
is the exhaustive path-by-path source of truth; the MCP surface is separately documented in the
MCP reference. MCP deliberately groups the model into logical resources and tools,
so it is not a filesystem mirror.
Every /sim path is relative to the guest mount. Thus vessels/active/id below means
/sim/vessels/active/id in a terminal and /v1/fs/vessels/active/id through the HTTP field mirror.
