Introducing the OpenHands CLI, a new coding CLI that: - Has top accuracy (similar to Claude Code) - Is completely open source, MIT licensed - Is model agnostic, use an API or bring your own - Is simple to install and run `pip install openhands-ai` and `openhands` (no Docker!)

OpenHands has long been one of the best coding agents overall, and especially top open source agents. But running it required a docker sandbox and GUI, and many of our users asked for a more light-weight alternative. This CLI solves this.

In implementing this, we added a few pieces of functionality: 1. slash commands to make it easy to change settings 2. a confirmation mode to allow you to check commands before you run them

We're enjoying using the CLI when logged in to servers, or just to spin up a session in a low-friction way. Hope that you like it too!
