OpenHands has shifted from one agent in one terminal toward an operations layer for coding agents. The hard problem is where agents run, how humans supervise them, and how work becomes repeatable automation.
What Sets It Apart
Agent Canvas can launch conversations and automations across local machines, Docker, VMs, remote servers, or cloud backends. It supports OpenHands agents and third-party ACP-compatible or coding-agent backends.
Who Should Use It
Great fit if you want to operationalize coding agents for issue triage, reports, reviews, or long-running tasks. Look elsewhere if you only need one-off code completions or cannot set security boundaries.
