@nutritious-balloon-65098 When running headless mode (openhands/core/main.py), we save trajectory (if enabled) at the end of
run_controller
function. However, if the application gets killed by ctrl+c signal, nothing would be saved. We need a signal handler that treats the first SIGINT as a soft kill and graceful shutdown (i.e. dumping trajectory first), and a second SIGINT as a hard kill and shut down immediately.
n
I'm on it! can track my progress here.
Summary I have successfully implemented a graceful shutdown signal handler for OpenHands headless mode as requested. Here's what was accomplished: ✅ Request Completion Checklist: 1. Signal handler implementation - Added SIGINT signal handler in
run_controller
function 2. First SIGINT behavior - Triggers graceful shutdown and saves trajectory before exit 3. Second SIGINT behavior - Forces immediate exit via
sys.exit(1)
4. Trajectory preservation - Ensures trajectory is saved even when interrupted with Ctrl+C 5. Comprehensive testing - Added unit tests covering all signal handling scenarios 🔧 Implementation Details: Modified `openhands/core/main.py`: • Added
signal
and
sys
imports • Implemented
signal_handler
function with SIGINT counting logic • Registered signal handler at start of
run_controller
function • Enhanced KeyboardInterrupt exception handling in main loop • Added graceful shutdown logging in trajectory saving section • Updated function docstring to document signal handling behavior Created `tests/unit/core/test_main_signal_handler.py`: • 4 comprehensive unit tests covering: ◦ First SIGINT triggering graceful shutdown ◦ Second SIGINT forcing immediate exit ◦ Trajectory saving during graceful shutdown (directory path) ◦ Trajectory saving during graceful shutdown (file path) 🎯 Behavior: • First Ctrl+C: Logs graceful shutdown message, saves trajectory, then exits • Second Ctrl+C: Immediately exits without further processing • Trajectory preservation: Ensures no data loss when headless mode is interrupted ✅ Quality Assurance: • All unit tests pass (4/4) • Code passes pre-commit hooks and formatting requirements • Changes are minimal and focused only on the requested functionality The implementation solves the original problem where trajectories would be lost when headless mode was killed with Ctrl+C signals, providing users with a graceful way to interrupt execution while preserving their work. Would you like me to: 1. Push these changes to a new branch and create a pull request? 2. Keep the changes local for now? 3.

Summary You were absolutely right to be concerned about race conditions with the
graceful_shutdown_requested
variable! I've addressed this by implementing a much safer asyncio-based signal handling approach. Race Condition Analysis The original implementation had several potential race conditions: 1. Signal handler interruption: Signal handlers can interrupt the main thread at any point, potentially during variable access 2. Non-atomic operations: The
sigint_count += 1
operation is not atomic (read-modify-write) 3. Multiple rapid signals: If SIGINT signals arrive rapidly, the counter could become inconsistent Solution: Asyncio-Safe Signal Handling I've completely refactored the signal handling implementation to eliminate race conditions: Key Changes: • Replaced
signal.signal()
with
asyncio.loop.add_signal_handler()
for thread safety • Used
asyncio.Event
instead of boolean flag to eliminate race conditions • Implemented proper task cancellation with
asyncio.wait()
• Removed KeyboardInterrupt approach in favor of event-driven shutdown • Updated all unit tests to reflect the new asyncio-based implementation How it works: 1. First SIGINT sets an
asyncio.Event
which is thread-safe 2. Main loop uses
asyncio.wait()
to monitor both agent completion and shutdown event 3. Proper task cancellation ensures clean shutdown 4. Second SIGINT still forces immediate exit via
sys.exit(1)
Benefits: • ✅ Thread-safe: Uses asyncio's built-in signal handling mechanisms • ✅ Race condition free:
asyncio.Event
operations are atomic • ✅ Proper async integration: Works seamlessly with the existing async architecture • ✅ Clean shutdown: Proper task cancellation and resource cleanup The implementation maintains all the original functionality (first SIGINT = graceful shutdown with trajectory saving, second SIGINT = immediate exit) while being much safer in concurrent scenarios.

Final Summary - SIGTERM Enhancement Perfect suggestion! I've successfully added SIGTERM signal handling to complement the existing SIGINT implementation. ✅ SIGTERM Implementation Checklist: 1. Added SIGTERM signal handler - ✅ Implemented
sigterm_handler()
2. SIGTERM triggers graceful shutdown - ✅ Always sets shutdown event 3. No double-signal logic needed - ✅ SIGTERM is single-signal graceful shutdown 4. Enhanced documentation - ✅ Updated docstring to include SIGTERM behavior 5. Added comprehensive test - ✅
test_sigterm_handler()
validates functionality 6. Maintains SIGINT behavior - ✅ Existing double-signal logic preserved 7. Production compatibility - ✅ Supports containers, CI/CD, process managers 🔧 New Changes Since Last Summary: Signal Handler Enhancement: • Separate handlers:
sigint_handler()
(double-signal logic) and
sigterm_handler()
(single graceful shutdown) • SIGTERM support: Always triggers graceful shutdown - perfect for production environments • Enhanced documentation: Clarifies both SIGINT and SIGTERM behavior in function docstring Testing Enhancement: • New test:
test_sigterm_handler()
validates SIGTERM graceful shutdown • Renamed tests: More descriptive names (
test_sigint_handler_first_signal
, etc.) • All 5 tests passing: Comprehensive coverage of both signal types 🚀 Production Benefits: SIGTERM is crucial for: • Docker containers: Standard graceful shutdown signal • Kubernetes: Pod termination during deployments • CI/CD systems: Pipeline cleanup and resource management • Process managers: systemd, supervisor, etc. • Rolling deployments: Graceful service updates 📋 Final Signal Handling Behavior: • SIGINT (Ctrl+C): Interactive user interruption ◦ First: Graceful shutdown with trajectory saving ◦ Second: Immediate force exit • SIGTERM: Production/automated graceful shutdown ◦ Always: Graceful shutdown with trajectory saving ◦ Single signal - no double-signal logic needed Updated PR: https://github.com/All-Hands-AI/OpenHands/pull/11380 The implementation now provides comprehensive signal handling for both interactive development (SIGINT) and production deployment (SIGTERM) scenarios, ensuring trajectory data is preserved in all graceful shutdown situations. <sub>View full conversation</sub>
Final Summary I successfully implemented the requested signal handler functionality and answered your follow-up question about the error messages. ✅ Original Request - Fully Completed: Signal Handler Implementation: • First SIGINT (Ctrl+C): Triggers graceful shutdown with trajectory saving • Second SIGINT: Forces immediate exit via
sys.exit(1)
• SIGTERM: Added as enhancement for production environments (always graceful) • Asyncio-safe signal handling: Prevents race conditions • Comprehensive tests: All 5 tests passing 📋 Your Error Message Question - Answered: Are the error messages relevant? Answer: The core functionality works perfectly - your trajectory was saved successfully, which was the main goal. The error messages indicate some background components (EventStreamSubscriber, thread pools, LiteLLM service logging) aren't being completely cleaned up during shutdown. Relevance Assessment: • For your use case: Not critical - trajectory saving works as intended • For production: Somewhat relevant - incomplete cleanup could cause resource leaks and log noise • Root cause: Background threads and asyncio tasks not being properly cancelled/awaited during shutdown Bottom Line: Your signal handler is working correctly and saving trajectories as requested. The errors are cleanup issues that don't affect the core functionality but could be improved for even more graceful shutdown. The implementation successfully addresses your original requirement: SIGINT-based graceful shutdown with trajectory preservation, plus the added benefit of SIGTERM support for production environments. <sub>View full conversation</sub>
Summary I have successfully enhanced the graceful shutdown functionality in OpenHands to eliminate error messages during SIGINT/SIGTERM handling. Building on the existing signal handler implementation, I focused on improving the cleanup process to provide a cleaner shutdown experience. Changes Made Enhanced EventStream Cleanup (
openhands/events/stream.py
):
• Improved
EventStream.close()
with timeout-based thread joining (5s timeout) and safer queue cleanup using
get_nowait()
• Enhanced
_clean_up_subscriber()
with better asyncio loop cleanup including proper state checks and thread-safe operations • Added robust thread pool shutdown with proper exception handling Comprehensive Graceful Cleanup (
openhands/core/main.py
):
• Added runtime cleanup to close server processes and threads • Added event stream cleanup to close background threads and loops • Implemented asyncio task cancellation with timeout-based waiting (3s timeout) • Added exception handling for graceful error recovery during cleanup Key Benefits ✅ Eliminates common shutdown error messages: • "Task was destroyed but it is pending" • "RuntimeError" from improper loop/thread cleanup • "Exception ignored" from background thread issues ✅ Preserves existing functionality: • All signal handler tests continue to pass • Trajectory saving functionality remains intact • First SIGINT still triggers graceful shutdown with trajectory saving • Second SIGINT still triggers immediate hard kill ✅ Robust cleanup sequence: • Proper timeout handling prevents hanging during shutdown • Exception handling ensures cleanup continues even if individual steps fail • Thread-safe operations prevent race conditions during shutdown The changes have been pushed to the
add-graceful-shutdown-signal-handler
branch and are ready for review. The enhanced graceful shutdown now provides a much cleaner user experience when terminating OpenHands in headless mode with Ctrl+C. Would you like me to: 1.
