Overview
Open Interpreter is a natural-language interface to a computer. You describe the result you want, for example 'load sales.csv, remove duplicates and plot revenue by month', and the model proposes Python or shell code, explains it and runs it once you approve. It keeps the context of the session, so you can refine the result step by step.
Running that on your own laptop means giving a model access to your files. This image gives developers, analysts and data teams a dedicated, disposable instance in their own account where the code can run safely, with your data uploaded only when you choose.
What is included: Open Interpreter 0.4.2 in its own Python 3.12 environment, a per-instance profile with auto-run off and the telemetry option set to disabled, and a workspace at /var/lib/open-interpreter/workspace. The interpreter command refuses the -y auto-run flag unless you explicitly allow it for a session, so code never runs without your confirmation by default. The upstream CLI still checks PyPI for newer versions at startup and, when you exit, asks whether you want to send feedback; nothing is shared unless you answer yes. No provider key, model download or listening port is included.
Getting started takes a few minutes: launch t3.medium (2 vCPU, 4 GiB RAM) with a 16 GiB or larger encrypted gp3 root volume and IMDSv2, attach an instance profile with AmazonSSMManagedInstanceCore, allow outbound HTTPS and keep inbound rules closed. Connect with Session Manager and run sudo -iu ubuntu bash /opt/sushi/docs/demo.sh to verify the installation; it runs Python locally without a model key. Then set your provider credentials privately, run interpreter and describe your first task. The usage instructions and the linked project documentation cover each step.
Pricing: a software fee of USD 0.02 per running t3.medium instance-hour. An optional five-day free trial for one concurrent instance changes software billing only and then converts to the hourly fee; the same full software is installed before and after it. This is not a separate trial or evaluation edition, and there is no product-imposed time, user or usage limit. Additional concurrent instances incur software fees. EC2, EBS, data transfer and any model-provider charges are billed separately, including during the free trial.
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for independent AWS packaging, validation, maintenance and setup documentation. Open Interpreter is published under the AGPL-3.0 license; Software Sushi provides the image, setup guide and packaging support and does not claim upstream endorsement. The corresponding source and license notices are kept on the instance under /usr/share/doc/open-interpreter and are linked below.
Highlights
- Describe a task in plain English. The model writes Python or shell code, explains it and runs it on the instance to deliver the result.
- Safe defaults: every code run asks for your confirmation and auto-run is off. No provider key or listening port is included.
- Isolated cloud instance with no listening ports and no baked keys, so your laptop stays out of reach. Use the model provider you choose.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
Open Interpreter 0.4.2 (Software Sushi build 0.4.2+sushi.2) on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS in a pinned Python 3.12 environment. This update fixes interactive CLI startup for the ubuntu user (home directory ownership and IPython cache location) and adds a CLI startup check to the bundled demo. auto_run is off by default; no provider key, model or listening port is included. Includes corresponding source, AGPL-3.0 license notices and an offline demo (sudo -iu ubuntu bash /opt/sushi/docs/demo.sh).

Usage instructions
- Launch t3.medium (2 vCPU, 4 GiB RAM) with a 16 GiB or larger encrypted gp3 root volume and IMDSv2. Attach an instance profile with AmazonSSMManagedInstanceCore, allow outbound HTTPS and keep inbound rules closed.
- Connect with aws ssm start-session --target <instance-id>. After cloud-init finishes, run: sudo -iu ubuntu bash /opt/sushi/docs/demo.sh (expect SUSHI_CUSTOMER_DEMO_PASSED).
- Set your model-provider credentials privately (never in user-data or logs).
- Run: interpreter, then describe your task. Review each proposed code block before approving it. The workspace is /var/lib/open-interpreter/workspace. Source and license notices are in /usr/share/doc/open-interpreter. Documentation: https://docs.openinterpreter.com/ Support: info@softwaresushi.com
