Fay-os

From The Hei Canon

fay-os is the fleet's Fairphone 5 configuration repo — Termux setup and Android device management for the phone that runs fay. Where fay is the app, fay-os is the ground it stands on: the device, its access paths, and its provisioning.

What it covers

  • Device — a Fairphone FP5 (build FP5.UT2Q.B.125.20250605, kernel 5.4.242-qgki), reachable on the LAN.
  • Access — SSH over WiFi into the Termux environment, so the phone is a scriptable node rather than a black box.
  • Termux setup — the package + environment provisioning that lets fleet tooling run on-device.

In the canon

fay-os is infrastructure-side to fay's application side. The fay app is the voice/chat/display surface for talking to the fleet from a phone; fay-os is what makes that specific phone a managed, reachable member of the ecosystem instead of just a handset.
