   Software is one of the most powerful tools that we humans have at our disposal; it
         allows a skilled programmer to interact with the world in complex and profound ways. At the
         same time, thanks to improvements in large language models (LLMs), there has also been a rapid
         development in AI agents that interact with and affect change in their surrounding
         environments. In this paper, we introduce OpenHands (f.k.a. OpenDevin), a platform for the
         development of powerful and flexible AI agents that interact with the world in similar ways to
         those of a human developer: by writing code, interacting with a command line, and browsing the
         web. We describe how the platform allows for the implementation of new agents, safe
         interaction with sandboxed environments for code execution, coordination between multiple
         agents, and incorporation of evaluation benchmarks. Based on our currently incorporated
         benchmarks, we perform an evaluation of agents over 15 challenging tasks, including software
         engineering (e.g., SWE-BENCH) and web browsing (e.g., WEBARENA), among others. Released under
         the permissive MIT license, OpenHands is a community project spanning academia and industry
         with more than 2.1K contributions from over 188 contributors.
