Release Notes

Multiple Side Chats from One Message A message that already has a side chat can start another: its side-chat button opens a menu of the message's threads with a "New side chat" option. Command Palette Finds Archived Sessions Cmd+K session search now includes archived sessions, marked with an icon. Queued Messages Stay Editable While Devin Is Idle Queued messages can be sent, edited, removed or reordered after Devin stops or the session goes to sleep, instead of being locked until the next turn. Open Chat Images in a Tab Images in the chat can be opened as a tab from the image viewer, so you can view an image alongside the conversation. Numbers Follow Your Display Language Numbers across Devin (usage, dashboards, counts) now use the thousands separator and decimal mark of your selected display language instead of the browser locale. Browser Previews Wake Sleeping Sessions Opening a browser preview of a sleeping session restarts the servers behind the preview automatically, without a chat message. The visitor may need to reload once the server is back. /devin Commands on GitLab Merge Requests /devin review and /devin <prompt> comments now work on GitLab merge requests. Bitbucket Cloud Merge Readiness Devin Review shows merge readiness for Bitbucket Cloud pull requests: ready, or blocked by required approvals, default-reviewer approvals, builds or requested changes when the branch enforces its merge checks. Word-level Highlights for Edited Lines In Devin Review diffs, an edited line shows which words changed even when lines were added or removed right next to it. List and Search Pull Requests Devin can list and search a repository's pull requests by state, author, branch or title on GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Gerrit and Perforce Swarm, instead of opening PRs one at a time. Git Tools for Issues, Labels, Assignees and Branch Protection Devin has built-in tools for issues (view, list, create, comment, edit), repository labels, PR assignees, repository info and branch protection rules on GitHub. Repository info and branch protection also work on GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket and Gerrit, and the issue and label tools on GitLab. Bitbucket Data Center Webhooks Installed Automatically Bitbucket Data Center connections now set up their own webhooks: one per project the access token administers, covering every repository in it. Projects created later are picked up within a day. Explain and Search Missing Repositories on GitHub When a repository is missing from the repository picker, Devin can explain why and search your repositories by name on GitHub and GitHub Enterprise Server as well as GitLab, and points you to linking your personal account when that is the cause. Personal Azure DevOps Connections per Tenant Linking a personal Azure DevOps account now works when it belongs to more than one tenant: Personal connections lists one entry per tenant, and a failed connect shows an error. Microsoft Teams: Separate Direct Messages and Group Chats Access Settings Teams Default Access now has separate "Direct messages" and "Group chats" settings, so admins can control them independently of channel access. Microsoft Teams: Forwarded Messages as Context Devin now sees the content of messages forwarded to it in Teams as quoted context, separate from your comment. Enterprise Setting to Hide the Legacy MCP Marketplace Enterprise admins can turn off "Show legacy MCP marketplace" in Enterprise settings → Plugins to hide the legacy MCP marketplace and custom MCP entry points and stop Devin from adding such MCPs itself. MCPs already added keep working. Google Calendar: Suggest Meeting Times The Google integration can suggest meeting times, ranking slots by how many attendees are free and showing who can't make each one. Google MCP installs that grant only some permissions now work for the services granted. SAML Single Logout on Sign-out Signing out of an enterprise SAML SSO login can also end the session at the identity provider, when a sign-out URL is configured for the connection.
