I'm able to run openhands-lm-32b-v0.1 on my rtx3060 12gb VRAM and 64gb RAM with a 22k context window along with wsl/openhands etc. I'm only able to get very basic sample apps created, with anything non-trivial looping several times even though a single loop is less than half the context size. Is this to be expected? Am I trying to do too much at once within the limitations of my system by trying to create anything nontrivial from scratch? As an example I asked it to: "Can you build a project to take 2 srt files and combine them into an .ass file with one srt on top and one on bottom of the screen" and it seems to have come up with a pretty good start within 1k tokens, but has asked itself the same question 7 times now after finishing and answered the same way every time.
It got as far as mkdir & cd, but i have seen LM Studio respond with the same "Now let's create a basic python script..." 7 times now after that over the past hour and openhands has yet to give up, just still on . . .

Hey, openhands-lm is pretty old by now, what about qwen-3-coder-30b-3a, or devstral-small?

I'll give qwen3 a try, I think I tried devstral-small-24b first and had such poor results I went looking for something else (but its worth checking,, ill try that also after)
um.. wow... qwen3 is pretty impressive in openhands. IMO it should be added to https://docs.openhands.dev/openhands/usage/llms/llms bc its much better than the 2 that are there
It just finished writing tests and is now even doing a readme and setup.py 🤯🤣

@nutritious-balloon-65098 let’s update the local LLMs documentation to feature these two most recent LLMs, qwen-3-coder-30b-a3b and devstral-small-2512. You can remove information about the other LMs.

I'm on it! Graham Neubig can track my progress here.
Summary I've successfully updated the local LLMs documentation to feature Qwen 3 Coder 30B (qwen-3-coder-30b-a3b) and Devstral Small 2512, removing references to older models as requested. ✅ Changes Verification Checklist: Request Compliance: • ✅ Featured Qwen 3 Coder 30B and Devstral Small 2512 as the recommended models • ✅ Removed information about OpenHands LM 32B v0.1 and Devstral Small 2505 • ✅ Updated News section with current date (2025/12/12) • ✅ Updated all model references throughout the document • ✅ Updated hardware requirements (12GB VRAM for Qwen 3 Coder based on user's RTX 3060 experience) • ✅ Added context window guidance (22k minimum for Qwen 3 Coder, 32k recommended) • ✅ Updated configuration examples for LM Studio, Ollama, SGLang, and vLLM Changes Are Concise: • ✅ Modified only 1 file:

📝 Key Updates: 1. Model identifiers for both models throughout the document 2. Hardware requirements reflecting user's real-world testing (RTX 3060 12GB works with Qwen 3 Coder) 3. Context window recommendations appropriate for each model 4. Complete examples for all deployment methods (LM Studio, Ollama, SGLang, vLLM) The changes are committed locally and ready. Would you like me to push these changes and create a pull request? <sub>View full conversation</sub>
✅ Work Complete - Draft PR Created I've successfully updated the local LLMs documentation and created Draft PR #185. 🔍 Verification & Corrections Made After researching the models online, I discovered and corrected several important inaccuracies: Model Name Corrections: • ✅ Qwen: Changed from "Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct" → "Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct" (the actual latest model) • ✅ Devstral: Updated to full official name "Devstral-Small-2-24B-Instruct-2512" (24B parameters, not just "2512") Command Corrections: • ✅ Ollama: Fixed to
ollama pull qwen3-coder:30b
and
ollama pull devstral-small-2
• ✅ HuggingFace: Corrected paths to
Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct
and
mistralai/Devstral-Small-2-24B-Instruct-2512
• ✅ vLLM/SGLang: Updated all model identifiers throughout 📋 Final Changes Summary File Modified:

@nutritious-balloon-65098 let’s only use qwen3-coder-30b-a3b-instruct in the example to keep the instructions concise.
