Open Interpreter

Open Interpreter is an open-source coding agent that lives in your terminal and lets LLMs read, edit, and run code on your computer. It’s a Rust fork of OpenAI’s Codex tuned to get strong agentic performance out of low-cost and open-weight models. Its /harness command switches between emulations of other agent harnesses, such as claude-code, kimi-code, qwen-code, and swe-agent, to get the best performance out of each model.

It edits files and runs commands inside native sandboxing on macOS, Linux, and Windows. Approval policies (untrusted, on-request, never) and sandbox modes (read-only, workspace-write, danger-full-access) control when it pauses to ask, and --yolo removes prompts entirely for throwaway environments.

It supports hosted and local models via model providers, such as Ollama and LM Studio, and ships a built-in QA skill that lets a model operate and test GUIs, driving web apps in a real browser with agent-browser or native desktop apps with trycua.

Alongside the terminal agent, the project ships Interpreter Desktop, a desktop agent for work that crosses apps, files, browser tabs, spreadsheets, and documents.
