Summary

Documentation updates for the OpenHands v1.18.0 release, covering user-facing features and bug fixes identified in the release review.

Changes

  • New release notes page (openhands/usage/agent-canvas/release-notes/v1.18.0.mdx): Added release notes for Agent Canvas v1.18.0 following the existing format, highlighting image lightbox, automation permissions, cloud-backend editing, and identity display.
  • Conversations (openhands/usage/agent-canvas/conversations.mdx): Added an "Image Attachments" section documenting that clicking an image thumbnail opens it full size in a lightbox, dismissable via Escape, close button, or backdrop click.
  • Managing automations (openhands/usage/agent-canvas/managing-automations.mdx):
    • Added the automation identity display to the detail view description list (shows which user the automation runs as on cloud backends).
    • Added a note under "Enable and disable automations" that only the automation creator can re-enable a disabled automation on cloud backends.
    • Added a new "Edit an automation" section noting that automations can now be edited on cloud backends.
  • docs.json: Added the v1.18.0 release notes page to the navigation.

Source issue: #789

Validation

  • docs.json validated as valid JSON.
  • pytest -q tests/ — 35 passed, 2 errors (pre-existing, unrelated to these changes; the errors are from test_pricing_documentation.py failing to fetch a remote file that returns 404).

💡 Tip: Enable Automations to automatically generate PRs for you.

Removed cloud/org only information to reduce confusion
Removed the mention of the identity (user) the automation runs as from the list of automation details.
Updated image attachment section to clarify that images produced in a conversation are also displayed as thumbnails.
