os - Operating System Information

The os module provides detailed information about the current operating system, including its name, architecture, release details, load averages, and more. It is essential for writing cross-platform scripts.

When to Activate

  • When the user needs to identify the system architecture (e.g., x86_64, arm64).
  • When checking if the environment is Linux, macOS, WSL, or Termux.
  • When monitoring system load or uptime.
  • When retrieving release information for software compatibility checks.

Core Principles & Rules

  • Efficient Scripting: Use variables like name_, arch_, and uptime_ in scripts for high-performance data retrieval.
  • Cache Control: Subcommands starting with get (e.g., getname) bypass caches for real-time detection.
  • Cross-Platform Readiness: Leverage os is <type> for robust conditional logic in shell scripts.

Patterns & Examples

Basic Information

bash
# Show OS name and architecture
x os name
x os arch

Environment Check

bash
# Test if running in WSL (returns 0 or 1)
x os is wsl

System Performance

bash
# Display uptime and load averages
x os uptime
x os loadavg

Checklist

  • Confirm if real-time detection is required (bypassing cache).
  • Verify the specific information requested (name vs release).

pufferlib

High-performance reinforcement learning framework optimized for speed and scale. Use when you need fast parallel training, vectorized environments, multi-agent systems, or integration with game environments (Atari, Procgen, NetHack). Achieves 2-10x speedups over standard implementations. For quick prototyping or standard algorithm implementations with extensive documentation, use stable-baselines3 instead.
