Windsurf Updates & Release Notes

Devin Desktop

• “Restart to Update” now asks for confirmation when local agents are still working and says how many will be stopped; cloud sessions keep running.
• Settings and Keyboard Shortcuts open as regular editor tabs by default; set "workbench.editor.useModal": "all" to keep the modal overlay.
• Fixed a bug with accidentally triggering editor keybindings from the agent chat.
• The old “Plugins” section for IDE extension marketplaces has been renamed to “Extensions”.
• Hide Cascade-specific configuration and customization options when Cascade is disabled for your team.
• Visual polish for the Agent Command Center: left-aligned titlebar, unsaved-changes indicator on file tabs, no more Cmd+P open/close flicker, aligned PR icons in Quick Open, full-width sidebar title renaming, and dragged session tabs that pick up their session name.
• Starting an agent in a new worktree that fails now surfaces the git error instead of quietly running in your workspace.
• Terminal: Create New Terminal in Editor Area now works inside worktrees.
• Codemaps and MCP configuration files now open from the remote machine when connected over WSL, SSH, or a dev container.
• Teams plan members no longer see quota warning banners they cannot act on.

Devin Local

• Devin Local conversations can be shared: Share Conversation uploads a sanitized transcript (system prompts and tool definitions dropped, secrets redacted, paths normalized) and copies a team-visible link. Share directly from the actions menu below a completed turn.
• Reverting is reliable mid-turn: revert buttons appear as soon as a prompt is sent and reverting while the agent is working cancels the turn first.
• The Customizations panel has search across every section (skills, subagents, rules, hooks, plugins, MCP servers), a new Subagents section, a refresh action for plugins, and an info indicator explaining why an enterprise-required plugin can’t be removed.
• Plugins installed from Customizations are added to your personal plugins by default, so they are available in Devin Cloud and on your other devices; choose Install locally for a device-only install.
• Permission rules from different levels (enterprise, mode, user, project, subagent) now compose predictably — an explicit deny: always wins, “always allow” options only appear when the grant would actually take effect, and denials say which layer denied them.
• Fixed rendering of commands whose output contains non-UTF-8 bytes.
• Ensured sudo password prompts can’t hang a command.
• Separate each MCP server’s logs into its own MCP: output channel.

Devin Cloud

• Session size chips use the same enterprise ACU thresholds as the web app, and auto-continuation billing notices appear inline in the transcript.
• Queued messages can be edited: click the edit button or press ⬆ in an empty input to pull the last queued message back.
• The +X −Y diff summary on a collapsed agent group is now clickable and opens a multi-diff editor with just that group’s files.
• “Duplicate session” and “send as fork” open the fork in a new tab, keeping the original conversation open.
• “Grant access” on a network access request is disabled with an explanation when an admin owns the session’s network policy.

Devin Desktop

• Devin ACU usage is now displayed in the client.
• Fixed settings and extensions migration for Windows system-wide installs.

CLI and Devin Local

• On Windows, bash now resolves to Git Bash instead of the WSL launcher stub.
• Subagents can now be configured with a default model.
• The MCP registry cache is now warmed during startup, so MCP servers are ready sooner.
• Injected context is no longer included in auto-generated session titles.
• Fixed agent messages over-merging in Claude ACP sessions.
• Added an attribution option to the Devin Local config file; set it to false to suppress Devin mentions in commit messages.

The 3.2 series brings Devin Local enhancements and continued Devin Desktop polish.

Devin Local

• Added a devin plugin system for extending Devin Local — in preview and opt-in for enterprises.
• Subagents can now call MCP tools directly.
• Teams can enforce terminal allow/deny lists through CLI permission scopes.

Agent and Editor modes

• Enabled the Cmd+. mode-toggle shortcut from the empty editor welcome panel.

Other improvements

• Improved handling for less common MCP server features.
• Removed the Explain sparkle button from the editor breadcrumbs.

The 3.1 series builds on the Devin Desktop rebrand with a smoother Agent/Editor experience, Devin Local improvements, and continued polish.

Agent and Editor modes

• Added the Agent/Editor switch to the collapsed-sidebar titlebar, and unified the search icon to open agent search.
• Kept the sidebar toggle in place when opening and closing the drawer.
• Smoothed switching between Agent and Editor modes so auxiliary windows no longer close and restore.

Devin Local

• Renamed the “Devin CLI” settings section to “Devin Local”.
• Added a notification when Devin Local agent sign-in fails.
• Updated the bundled Devin Local agent to v2026.5.26-8.

Other improvements

• Added .devinignore support alongside .windsurfignore and .codeiumignore.
• Settings and MCP marketplace pages now scroll across the full panel width and keep content centered on wide panels.
