It's pre-1.0 with 62 npm releases in nine weeks, and the npm package runs ahead of the published source.\n\n**OpenHands.** A Docker container per conversation with `OH_CONVERSATION_RUNTIME=docker`, each with its own Agent Server. 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### MiniMax Code\n\n1. Run `mcode exec --cwd \u003crepo\u003e --output-format json --timeout 10m --max-steps 50` and check both the exit code and the JSON `status`\n2. Keep `--permission full` and `off` for a container or throwaway workspace. The default `smart` fails when it would need a person\n3. Set `MCODE_PROVIDER_API_KEY` and add a provider for BYOK. M Plan models need a browser sign-in with `mcode login --region global`\n4. Set `MINIMAX_DATA_DIR` per CI runner. Keys and sessions live in `~/.minimax` by default\n5. Pin a version. npm published 62 releases in nine weeks and the public source trails it\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 The `openhands --headless` CLI is no longer maintained\n5.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, MiniMax Code or OpenHands?\n\nOpenHands scores 70.8 (BB) on agent readiness against MiniMax Code's 67.5 (B), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Are MiniMax Code and OpenHands open source?\n\nYes. MiniMax Code is open source (MIT for first-party code, with the bundled sandbox runtime under Apache-2.0. The desktop app's source isn't published). OpenHands is open source (MIT (Agent Canvas, SDK, tools and Agent Server). OpenHands Cloud is a hosted service).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/minimax-code-vs-openhands.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/minimax-code-vs-openhands.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"minimax-code\", \"b\": \"openhands\"}`.
