Confirmation mode is off by default in Agent Canvas, and the npm install gives the agent the host's whole filesystem.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Crush\n\n1. Add `permissions deny` rules or a PreToolUse hook before `crush run`. It approves every permission request in its session\n2. Read `.crushrc`, `crushrc` and `crush.json` in a cloned repository before running Crush there. They execute as shell code at startup\n3. Set `CRUSH_DISABLE_METRICS=1` or `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` to stop usage metrics to data.charm.land\n4. Wrap `crush run` in your own timeout. It has no turn, time or cost limit flag\n5. Configure a provider by environment variable or `crushrc` first. With none, `crush run` exits with an error asking for interactive setup\n\n### OpenHands\n\n1. Set `AGENT_CANVAS_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1` and `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` before the first start\n2. Start Canvas with `OH_CONVERSATION_RUNTIME=docker` or use the Docker image. The npm install runs the agent on the host\n3. Turn on confirmation mode with a risk threshold. Canvas starts with it off\n4. Use the SDK or the Agent Server API for headless runs. The `openhands --headless` CLI is no longer maintained\n5. Set `filter_tools_regex` on the agent to keep unneeded MCP tool definitions out of the context\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Crush or OpenHands?\n\nOpenHands scores 70.8 (BB) on agent readiness against Crush's 56.5 (C), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Are Crush and OpenHands open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Crush. OpenHands is open source (MIT (Agent Canvas, SDK, tools and Agent Server).
