Description
Split from OpenHands/OpenHands#7752
I understand from slack that Graham proposed to offer an easy way to specify repos to clone, if more than one repo is desired:
---
dependency_repos:
- frontend: OpenHands/OpenHands
- backend: OpenHands/software-agent-sdk
---
Maybe then we could clone automatically, or maybe we can insert a sentence for the agent to start by cloning those repos.

Done means the chosen behavior is implemented for multiple repositories and covered by tests.
