KOSCHEI LANG · v0.10.0 · CAPABILITY SECURITY

Security starts with
explicit authority.

A programming language that makes disk, network, environment and process permissions explicit. Inspect what your code can reach before it runs.

One-time commercial license · One developer · 12 months of updates · Perpetual use of acquired versions

BUILT FOR CONTROL

Know what your software can do.

Language-level protections you can test and inspect, without claiming every threat outside the Koschei toolchain is solved.

◇

Explicit capabilities

Disk, network, environment and process operations require capabilities explicitly passed into Koschei code.

⊘

Compile-time rejection

ks check rejects the bundled unauthorized-import example with diagnostic KS2401 before running it.

⌁

Auditable reach

ks caps reports the program's reachable capabilities. ks caps --deny net can fail CI when network authority appears.

⌘

Run and compile

ks run uses the checked interpreter. ks build compiles native applications through the present Go-based adapter.

▦

Core Library

Typed collections, text helpers and SHA3-256 digest support, with growing libraries authored in Koschei source.

▣

Practical examples

Includes secretscan, directory-integrity examples, a VS Code extension and bilingual reference guides.

REAL COMMANDS · EXPLANATORY PREVIEW

A denial you can reproduce.

These commands run locally after installing the official package. This website displays commands; it does not execute code in your browser.

Unauthorized dependency denied
ks check examples/supply_chain/main.ks
# Expected: KS2401 · exit 1
No unapproved network reach
ks caps --deny net examples/apps/secretscan/main.ks
# Expected: exit 0

START IN MINUTES

From ZIP to first program.

Extract the purchased ZIP and open a terminal inside its koschei-lang-0.10.0 directory. On Unix-like systems, use Python 3.12+; native builds also require Go 1.24+.

01

Install

./install.sh
ks version

Install the language into your own user environment.

02

Run a program

ks run examples/hello.ks

The bundled hello program prints Koschei and 1.

03

Inspect a security boundary

ks check examples/supply_chain/main.ks

Expect KS2401, a deliberate denial of a module that lacks disk authority.

Inside the product ZIP: English/Turkish guides, the Core Library reference, examples and release notes. Source-repository access is not included.

FAQ

Before you start.

Does the $49 license expire?

No. You can use acquired versions indefinitely; versions released within 12 months of purchase are included.

Is Go required?

Python 3.12+ is required for installation and the interpreter. Go 1.24+ is required when you use ks build.

Is this a Web3-only language?

No. Koschei Lang is an independent general-purpose language. Web3 and AI integrations are separate applications, not the language's required runtime.

Can I redistribute the compiler?

Not without separate permission. Programs you author and the binaries produced by ks build belong to you, subject to the LICENSE. The Koschei toolchain itself is proprietary.
