SoLo lets a fully static Linux executable load the host machine's shared libraries. A musl linked static binary normally cannot dlopen a glibc built GPU driver, which is why graphics software still ships as a container or an AppImage. SoLo supplies its own ELF loader for x86_64 and aarch64 plus a glibc ABI bridge over musl, so one ordinary static file can drive the Vulkan implementation already installed on the machine. Its CI loads shared objects from the 1,000 most installed Debian packages on every commit.
