Perfect! Let me verify that the request has been completely addressed: Request Completion Checklist: ✅ Investigated RecallObservation and its working_dir attribute: Found it in

openhands/events/observation/agent.py

line 79 ✅ Traced the source of working_dir: Discovered it comes from

memory.runtime_info.working_dir

which is set in

memory.py

line 202 ✅ Identified the bug: Found that in

agent_session.py

line 162, the code was using

config.workspace_mount_path_in_sandbox

(which defaults to "/workspace") instead of

str(runtime.workspace_root)

(which reflects the actual SANDBOX_VOLUMES configuration) ✅ Found the correct pattern: Confirmed that

main.py

line 142 uses the correct approach with

str(runtime.workspace_root)

✅ Created reproduction test: Built comprehensive tests that demonstrate both the bug and the fix ✅ Implemented the fix: Changed

agent_session.py

to use

str(self.runtime.workspace_root) if self.runtime else config.workspace_mount_path_in_sandbox

✅ Added unit tests: Created comprehensive test suite in

tests/unit/test_working_dir_fix.py

with 4 test cases ✅ Verified fix works: All tests pass, including existing memory and session tests ✅ Code quality: Passed all pre-commit hooks and linting checks Changes Summary: The changes are concise and focused: 1. One-line fix in

agent_session.py

to use the correct working directory source 2. Comprehensive test suite to prevent regression and verify the fix works correctly Now I'll ask the user about pushing the changes: ------------------------- Summary I successfully investigated and fixed the

RecallObservation

working_dir bug in local runtime. Here's what I found and accomplished: Problem Identified • Root Cause: In

openhands/server/session/agent_session.py

line 162, the code was using

config.workspace_mount_path_in_sandbox

(which defaults to "/workspace") instead of the runtime's actual workspace root • Impact: When using local runtime with

SANDBOX_VOLUMES={real_working_dir}:/workspace:rw

, the

RecallObservation.working_dir

was always "/workspace" instead of reflecting the actual working directory Solution Implemented • Fixed the bug: Changed

agent_session.py

to use

str(self.runtime.workspace_root)

when runtime is available, falling back to the config value when runtime is not available • Pattern consistency: This matches the correct pattern already used in

main.py

line 142 Testing & Verification • Comprehensive test suite: Added 4 unit tests in

tests/unit/test_working_dir_fix.py

that: ◦ Verify the fix works correctly ◦ Demonstrate the original bug behavior ◦ Test RecallObservation working_dir propagation ◦ Prevent future regression • All tests pass: Both new tests and existing memory/session tests pass • Code quality: Passed all linting and pre-commit checks Changes Made 3.

openhands/server/session/agent_session.py

: One-line fix to use correct working directory source 4.

tests/unit/test_working_dir_fix.py

: New comprehensive test suite (139 lines) The fix is minimal, targeted, and ensures that

SANDBOX_VOLUMES

configuration is properly reflected in `RecallObservation`'s

working_dir

attribute for local runtime scenarios. Would you like me to: • Push the changes to a new branch and create a pull request? • Keep the changes local for now? • Any other specific Git workflow you prefer? _{View full conversation}

I have completed the investigation and fix for the RecallObservation working_dir issue. Key Finding: The bug was not in headless mode (which was already working correctly), but in server/GUI mode. Fix Applied: Modified

openhands/server/session/agent_session.py:162

to use

str(self.runtime.workspace_root)

instead of

config.workspace_mount_path_in_sandbox

, ensuring RecallObservation gets the actual workspace directory path. Testing: Created comprehensive unit tests that verify the fix and demonstrate the original bug. Status: All changes are committed and ready. The fix is minimal, targeted, and includes proper safety checks. Headless mode was already working correctly and required no changes. _{View full conversation}
