https://aitoolchain.io/tools/devin-desktop New releases and features in Devin Desktop, tracked by The AI Toolchain. en Fri, 28 Aug 2026 13:16:05 GMT https://windsurf.com/changelog https://windsurf.com/changelog Fri, 28 Aug 2026 13:16:05 GMT Devin Desktop adds multi-window agents, per-session URL copying, plan-mode Markdown files, and new ACP activity-sharing settings. • Adds `devin.agentWindow.location` config setting to split the Agent Command Center into a separate window from the editor. • Session tabs and the command palette now offer `Copy Session URL` for sharing or referencing individual sessions. • Adds new settings to control whether integrated terminal activity and local user-edit activity are shared with ACP agents (both on by default). • Windows: `Install Devin CLI` now writes a shim to the bundled CLI so updating Devin Desktop also updates the `devin` command. • Improved plan mode now produces a full Markdown plan file with a separate `Implement` button for explicit review before execution. • Any number of agent windows can now run side by side in the Agent Command Center. • The Agent Command Center now follows whichever space is selected instead of being tied to one folder, and converts an editor window in place with no reload or save prompt. • Adds the ability to rename sessions from the tab dropdown. • Adds support for multi-root workspaces containing virtual filesystem folders. • Hooks now run for worktrees created from a Devin Local session, copying `.env` files and other untracked setup before the session starts. • Live shell output streams into the session while a command runs; finished shell rows expand to show the full command and complete output. • Saving a session's network config now reports a conflicting change instead of silently discarding it, and approving a network access request explains why it failed. • The sessions sidebar now has improved filtering and sorting controls. • Agent sidebar, composer, and welcome page now warn when a workspace is untrusted and offer a `trust workspace` prompt to activate local agents. • Enterprise: adds a link to request more usage when hitting ACU limits. • Linux: uninstalling or upgrading the `.deb` package no longer removes the shared Microsoft apt keyring. https://windsurf.com/changelog#v3-8-20 https://windsurf.com/changelog#v3-8-20 Fri, 21 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Devin Desktop v3.8.20 adds multi-window agents, a new `devin.agentWindow.location` setting, plan-mode Markdown files, and live shell streaming. • Adds `devin.agentWindow.location` config setting to split the Agent Command Center into a separate window from the editor. • Windows: `Install Devin CLI` now writes a shim to the bundled CLI so updating Devin Desktop also updates the `devin` command. • `post_setup_worktree` hooks now run for worktrees created from a Devin Local session, copying `.env` files and other untracked setup before the session starts. • New settings control whether integrated terminal activity and local user-edit activity are shared with ACP agents (both default to on). • Agent Command Center now follows whichever space is selected (not tied to one folder), converts an editor window in place with no reload or save prompt, and supports any number of agent windows running side by side. • Significantly improved performance for switching between Agent and Editor mode (`Ctrl/Cmd+G`). • Adds support for multi-root workspaces containing virtual filesystem folders. • Plan mode now produces a full Markdown plan file that can be reviewed separately, with an explicit Implement button. • Devin Local tabs now show the same status indicators as Cascade legacy tabs;

Breaking changes: • Cascade, Devin Local, and all ACP agents are unavailable and hooks do not load or run while a workspace is open in Restricted Mode. https://windsurf.com/changelog#v3-7-16 https://windsurf.com/changelog#v3-7-16 Wed, 19 Aug 2026 09:48:52 GMT Devin Desktop v3.7.16 adds shareable Local conversations, composable permission rules, per-MCP log channels, and mid-turn revert controls. • Adds `workbench.editor.useModal`: `all` config key to restore the modal overlay for Settings and Keyboard Shortcuts, which now open as regular editor tabs by default. • Separates each MCP server's logs into its own `MCP: <server>` output channel for cleaner observability. • New 'Share Conversation' action for Devin Local conversations uploads a sanitized transcript (system prompts and tool definitions dropped, secrets redacted, paths normalized) and copies a team-visible link; accessible from the actions menu below a completed turn. • Composable permission rules across enterprise, mode, user, project, and subagent levels — an explicit `deny: always` wins unconditionally, 'always allow' options appear only when the grant would actually take effect, and denials identify which layer denied them. • Customizations panel gains full-text search across skills, subagents, rules, hooks, plugins, and MCP servers, plus a new Subagents section and a refresh action for plugins. • Plugins installed from the Customizations panel are added to personal plugins by default (available in Devin Cloud and on other devices); 'Install locally' limits the install to the current device. • Large-file reads through ACP are now bounded and paginated instead of repeatedly re-reading overflow files. • Revert buttons appear as soon as a prompt is sent; reverting mid-turn cancels the in-progress agent turn first. • Codemaps and MCP configuration files now open from the remote machine when connected over WSL, SSH, or a dev container. • 'Duplicate session' and 'Send as fork' open the fork in a new tab, keeping the original conversation intact. • The +X −Y diff summary on a collapsed agent group is now clickable and opens a multi-diff editor scoped to that group's files. • Queued messages can be edited by clicking the edit button or pressing ⬆ in an empty input to pull the last queued message back. • Session size chips use the same enterprise ACU thresholds as the web app, with auto-continuation billing notices appearing inline in the transcript. • 'Grant access' on a network access request is disabled with an explanation when an admin owns the session's network policy. • Starting an agent in a new worktree that fails now surfaces the git error instead of silently falling back to the main workspace. • 'Create New Terminal in Editor Area' now works inside worktrees.
