I apologize if I was not clear. The 13.1 series is still under
development. It is not a stable release and will only load on machines
that have developer keys.

There are builds for XO 1, e.g., http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os15/xo-1/

Not every spin is built for every machine, but there should be builds
for XO-1 for most spins.
