23+# go-urbit Core Interface
24+
25+One of the missing projects in the Urbit ecosystem is the ability to directly communicate with Urbit from another device or system using the Ames protocol.
26+
27+Most particularly embedded devices and low-power systems needing to transmit messages to another ship, on which running a full Urbit ship would either be not possible, or not ideal. This also includes services running in cloud environments only needing to transmit message packets.
28+
29+I am proposing to create a go-urbit library that contains the required functions for interfacing with Ames.
30+
31+My end goal, as discussed with ~wicdev-wisryt for a future proposal, is to rewrite the Urbit King in go using this library for maximum security and memory safety.
