Installation

Note: This takes a long time

Update packages and sources

yes | pkg update

Install required packages

yes | pkg install termux-api python-pip cmake ninja patchelf build-essential matplotlib rust binutils libzmq

Allow storage permissions for termux after running:

termux-setup-storage

Note: Android will ask you to grant permission after the first time which causes the command to not succeed initially

So run the same command again and say 'Yes'

termux-setup-storage

Install open interpreter

pip install open-interpreter

Set your OpenAI API key:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=<apikey>

Start Open Interpreter

interpreter

Note, OS mode is not currently supported on Android

Considerations

Updating config.yaml

When running interpreter --config a config.yaml may be created in ~/Downloads. This is not the config file used by Open Interpreter. This is due to how Android/Termux handles opening files.

In order to update your Open Interpreter config file, you need to edit the one located in /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.config/Open Interpreter/

You may get an error saying that Termux cannot use external applications. You need to update the termux.properties file. You can use any text editor, here are the steps for nano:

Exiting the Chat

In order to exit the chat, you need to press control + c. In some instances, this will halt the current process Open Interpreter is running but will not exit the interactive chat. Pressing control + c a second time will exit the chat.
