OpenHands

Run AI coding agents across local, self-hosted and cloud backends

Official website

What is OpenHands?

OpenHands gives software developers a way to run AI coding agents through a terminal, a web interface, or an SDK instead of relying only on code suggestions inside an editor. Its Agent Canvas workspace can run multiple agents at once, with each task isolated in its own Git worktree so separate changes can be reviewed independently. Developers can connect supported agent harnesses, including Claude Code, Codex and Gemini CLI, through the Agent Client Protocol while keeping their existing model arrangements. The execution backend can run on a local machine, a self-managed virtual machine, or the optional OpenHands Cloud service. Teams can connect development workflows to services such as GitHub and Slack, build scheduled or event-driven automations, and add MCP connections or agent skills. Self-hosting does not remove model-provider costs or the need to review generated code; paid team plans add multi-user access controls, budgeting and organization features rather than making model usage unlimited.

An open-source platform for running and reviewing AI coding agents locally, on a self-hosted server or in OpenHands Cloud, with terminal, visual workspace and SDK options.
