walkerOS

Event collection you own, version, and trust

LicensewalkerOS DocumentationReact demoStorybook demonpm version

From browser to BigQuery and ad platforms - warehouse-native, and ready for AI agents via MCP.

The problem

GA4, custom tags, ad pixels - each one a separate setup, none of them agreeing on the same numbers. When something breaks, you can't see where.

walkerOS is one collection layer for all of them.

Why walkerOS?

  • Config-as-code - version control your tracking, review it in PRs, deploy with confidence
  • Declarative tagging - tag your UI in HTML, not scattered JavaScript
  • Consent-native - events queue until consent is given, then flush correctly to every destination
  • Schema validation - catch bad events at collection time, not weeks later in a dashboard
  • One layer, many destinations - send to your warehouse and ad platforms from a single event definition
  • Warehouse-native - events land clean and structured in your data warehouse, ready to query
  • MIT licensed - self-host anywhere, no vendor lock-in

How it works

walkerOS Architecture

  • Sources: Where events come from (browser, dataLayer, Express, AWS Lambda, GCP Functions, and more)
  • Collector: The processing engine (consent, validation, mapping, routing, enrichment)
  • Destinations: Where events go (GA4, Google Ads, Meta CAPI, BigQuery, and more)

Two ways to install walkerOS

Choose one based on your workflow and integration possibilities:

ModeDescriptionBest For
IntegratedImport directly into your TypeScript applicationReact/Next.js apps, TypeScript projects
BundledBuild a standalone script from JSON config with npx walkerosStatic sites, Docker deployments, CI/CD

Integrated (import into your app):

import{startFlow}from'@walkeros/collector';const{ elb }=awaitstartFlow({destinations: {console: {code: {type: 'console',config: {},push: (event)=>console.log('Event:',event.name),},},},});awaitelb('page view',{title: 'Home'});// -> logs: Event: page view

Wire a real source and destination once you are ready:

import{startFlow}from'@walkeros/collector';import{sourceBrowser}from'@walkeros/web-source-browser';import{destinationGtag}from'@walkeros/web-destination-gtag';awaitstartFlow({sources: {browser: {code: sourceBrowser,config: {settings: {pageview: true}},},},destinations: {ga4: {code: destinationGtag,config: {settings: {ga4: {measurementId: 'G-XXX'}},},},},});

Bundled (build from JSON config):

{
"version": 4,
"flows": {
"default": {
"config": {
"platform": "web",
"bundle": {
"packages": {
"@walkeros/collector": {},
"@walkeros/web-source-browser": {},
"@walkeros/web-destination-gtag": {}
}
}
},
"sources": {
"browser": {
"package": "@walkeros/web-source-browser",
"config": { "settings": { "pageview": true } }
}
},
"destinations": {
"ga4": {
"package": "@walkeros/web-destination-gtag",
"config": {
"settings": { "ga4": { "measurementId": "G-XXX" } }
}
}
}
}
}
}

Then: npx walkeros bundle flow.json

AI-ready via MCP

walkerOS exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) interface. AI agents can read your event schema, suggest tracking definitions, and generate integration code - making your event layer programmable, not just configurable.
