I suspect one of the FORTHs would have  used a standalone operating system.

For a while, you could run CPM on the CoCo, so long as you spent the
money on the hardware to do it.

There was FLEX, which wasn't specific to the CoCo, but existed on
various other 6809 based computers also.

THere were all the varianst of RSdos, which I'm not sure I'd classify
as separate operating systems, but some might.
