Summary

Adds a runtime guide explaining why conda-forge requests default to anaconda.org and how to avoid it when building your own runtime images by setting:

export OH_CONDA_CHANNEL_ALIAS=https://repo.prefix.dev

Related PR

Details

  • New page: openhands/runtime/runtime-images-and-conda.mdx
    • Two usage paths: prebuilt runtime images vs building yourself
    • Explains default channel_alias behavior and the new environment variable
    • Provides example alias values (public mirror or internal proxy)

Why

  • Many organizations must avoid any contact with anaconda.org. Even when using only conda-forge, the default channel_alias expands to https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge.
  • With the new knob, users can redirect conda-forge to a different host (e.g. https://repo.prefix.dev or an internal mirror).

Checklist

  • New page linked under openhands/runtime/
  • Language is concise and actionable
