v3.11.212 October 23, 2026 New Agent Window The Agent Window now runs the same interface as the Devin web app: the sessions sidebar, session view, Automations, Review, Wiki, settings, and Command Palette (⌘K) match app.devin.ai, and follow your Devin Desktop theme.
- Sessions:
- Drag a session from the sidebar onto an open session to view up to 8 sessions side by side.
- Group sidebar sessions by workspace, with a ”+” on each group to start a session in that folder.
- Start a child session from any session’s “More” menu.
- Sessions grouped into Spaces now appear under a parent session in the sidebar.
- Files, changes, and terminals in every session:
- A Files view shows a local session’s working directory or a cloud session’s machine as a file tree next to the editor.
- The Changes tab now works for local sessions, with per-file diffs and a “Since last seen” scope.
- Terminal in a session’s add-tab menu opens a terminal on the session’s machine, or a local shell in the session’s folder.
- Cmd/Ctrl+O opens a local file in the Agent Window, and Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+F searches the text of the session’s files.
- Files open in the Agent Window’s editor support code actions and rename.
- Select code in an editor tab and press Cmd/Ctrl+L to quote it into the chat.
- Cloud sessions:
- The IDE button in the top right opens a Remote SSH window on the session’s machine.
- App previews open in a Preview tab, with a URL bar, port switching, device sizes, and an element picker.
- Cloud sessions connected to your machine read unsaved edits from open editors.
- Code scan sessions show a scan badge and open their Findings view beside the chat.
- Customizations and settings now match the same UI as Devin Cloud.
- New shortcuts: Cmd/Ctrl+. cycles the agent mode, Cmd/Ctrl+[ and Cmd/Ctrl+] go back and forward, Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+L copies a link to the session, and Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+E marks a session done. Typing anywhere focuses the composer.
- Settings → Preferences → Appearance lets you pick the interface and code fonts and their sizes.
Changed
- Pressing Enter while Devin is working steers the running turn; Cmd/Ctrl+Enter queues the message until the turn ends.
- Configured MCP servers can be @-mentioned.
- The command palette searches the content of Local sessions, not only their titles.
- On Windows, WSL distros can be used as remote agent hosts alongside SSH hosts, and remote hosts are listed in the Cloud / Local picker.
- Devin no longer opens files in the background when it edits them. Turn “Auto-open edited files” back on in Devin Settings → Editor → User Interface to restore this.
- Agent diff zones are off by default, so agent edits are applied directly to files. Re-enable them in Devin Settings → Editor → User Interface → Agent diff zones.
- Agent edits are saved without running format-on-save or code actions. Enable “Run save actions on agent edits” to restore the previous behavior.
- Worktrees are no longer deleted automatically once a repository has more than 19 of them.
- Plugins can declare platforms: [cloud] or platforms: [local] ; Devin Desktop only activates plugins that apply locally.
Fixed
- Electron 42.11.16 and Node.js 24.22.1 for the remote server, with the October 2026 security fixes.
- Long sessions stay responsive while replies stream, and scrolling long transcripts is smoother.
- MCP servers from every configured registry can be installed, not only those from the first registry.
- MCP tool calls that need approval in Devin Local show their Allow / Reject controls.
- Saving agent environment variables restarts the affected local agent, so new sessions use the updated values.
- The “System notifications” switch in Devin settings now turns agent notifications on and off.
- Ctrl+Shift+C copies in terminals again, and the Send Terminal to Chat shortcut works on Windows and Linux.
- Markdown files of a cloud session open as a rendered preview again.
- Dev Containers:
- onCreateCommand , updateContentCommand , postCreateCommand ,
