About OpenDevin

OpenHands (listed here as OpenDevin) is an open-source project for AI-driven software development. Its current homepage presents it as Agent Canvas, a self-hosted control center for running coding agents and automations. Users can start agent conversations and set up recurring or event-triggered tasks, such as generating reports that publish to Slack or breaking GitHub issues into tasks.

By default it runs on the user's own machine. It can also connect to other agent backends, including Docker containers, virtual machines, or a company's infrastructure. Running agents on OpenHands Cloud or OpenHands Enterprise infrastructure is optional. The project includes the open-source OpenHands agent and can also use third-party agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Pi, and OpenCode. The source does not state pricing, and it directs readers to a separate self-hosting guide for security hardening details.

OpenDevin FAQ

Can agents keep running when my laptop is off?
The source says running OpenHands on a server in the cloud allows agents to continue running even when a laptop is shut. It also makes it easier to trigger agents from services such as Slack and GitHub.
Can I use agents other than the OpenHands agent?
Yes. The source lists Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Pi, and OpenCode, and says any agent that supports the Agent-Client Protocol (ACP) can be used.
Where can I send questions or feedback?
The source says to open a GitHub issue or join the #proj-agent-canvas channel in Slack.
