Rune is what happens when you stop treating an AI agent like a single chat completion and start treating it like an operating system. Underneath, everything is an event, A Telegram message, a cron tick, a dashboard click which flows through one asynchronous bus into fault-isolated workers that crash independently and restart without losing state. On top, a cost-aware router classifies every request in milliseconds and decides whether it deserves a free local Gemma model humming on your own GPU, or a frontier cloud model reserved for real reasoning and code. Agents, skills, and cron jobs aren't Python classes, they're Markdown files with YAML frontmatter, so anyone can teach Rune a new capability without touching a line of code or restarting the runtime.
