Hey folks. A while ago I was asking in the questions channel if there is any way I can start the OpenHands local GUI without docker and use the local runtime. @limited-student-10747 told me that I can try using

export INSTALL_DOCKER=0
export RUNTIME=local
make build && make run

to start the local GUI with local runtime. After I tried the local runtime, I found that there are problems with their previous configuration. I raised two issues regarding the local runtime and two PRs on fixing them. issue: https://github.com/OpenHands/OpenHands/issues/12011 pr: https://github.com/OpenHands/OpenHands/pull/12012 issue: https://github.com/OpenHands/OpenHands/issues/12014 pr: https://github.com/OpenHands/OpenHands/pull/12015 Would appreciate it if someone could take a look and let me know if this is a reasonable direction for supporting the local GUI + local runtime (without Docker). Thanks!

Hey @flaky-engineer-19286, thanks so much for this! We’re in the process of transitioning from OpenHands v0 (with agent code in the

OpenHands/OpenHands

repo) to OpenHands v1 (with agent code in the

OpenHands/software-agent-sdk

repo). I think OpenHands v1 solves both of these issues, so if transitioning over to using v1 is an option that may be sufficient

I think this is a bit in flux right now, sorry, as Graham said. You may want to take a look at this code, which is from V1 https://github.com/OpenHands/OpenHands/blob/main/openhands/app_server/sandbox/process_sandbox_service.py

Thank u guys so much, I'll take a look at this code and see if there is anything I can help.❤️
