Description
Summary
We should add an "Integrations" page to the OpenHands documentation (similar to Hugging Face's Add Your Integration page) to encourage and guide third-party integrators to document their OpenHands integrations.
Motivation
Just as Hugging Face's integration directory has helped build an ecosystem of tools working with their Inference Providers, an OpenHands integrations page would:
- Lower barriers to entry - Make it easy for tool maintainers to get their integrations documented
- Build ecosystem awareness - Users would discover tools that work with OpenHands in one place
- Encourage contributions - Clear guidelines make it more likely people will add documentation
- Attract partnerships - A formal integration program signals openness to collaboration
Proposed Structure
Based on the Hugging Face model, an OpenHands integrations page could include:
Requirements
To be listed, an integration should:
- Work with OpenHands (SDK, Cloud, or self-hosted)
- Be actively maintained with recent commits or releases
- Have clear documentation showing how to connect to OpenHands
How to Submit
- Test your integration with OpenHands
- Fork the openhands/docs repository
- Update an index file (e.g.,
overview/integrations/index.mdx) to add your tool to a table with a link to your integration docs - Submit a Pull Request with your changes
- (Optional) Create a dedicated integration page (e.g.,
overview/integrations/your-tool-name.mdx)
Integration Page Template

# Your Tool Name
Brief description of what your tool does.
## Overview
How your tool integrates with OpenHands.
## Prerequisites
- Your tool installed
- OpenHands account (if using Cloud API)
## Configuration
Step-by-step setup instructions with code examples.
## Resources
- [Your Tool Documentation](https://yourtool.com/docs)
- [OpenHands Integration Guide](/your-guide)
Example Integrations to Feature
Potential first-party integration documentation we could add:
- GitHub Actions - Running OpenHands in CI/CD
- Slack/Mattermost bots - Chat-based agent interactions
- Cursor/Windsurf/Roo Code extensions - IDE integrations
- MCP (Model Context Protocol) clients/servers
- CI/CD platforms (Jenkins, GitLab CI, CircleCI, etc.)
Next Steps
- Create
overview/integrations/index.mdxas the integrations directory index - Add navigation entry in
docs.json - Create template and guidelines
- Seed with existing known integrations

Research direction
Start by reviewing the documentation structure and navigation in docs.json, then inspect the proposed overview/integrations/index.mdx location. Define the integrations directory, submission guidance, template, and navigation entry described in the issue. Done means the index, guidelines, template, navigation entry, and initial known integrations are documented.
