Light Mode & UI Enhancements

Devin now supports a light mode theme in beta, allowing users to switch between dark, light, and system themes from their profile settings. Additionally, the session insights modal has been redesigned with improved layouts and empty states, and integration settings pages received a fresh layout with connection cards and support sections.

Devin Manages Devins: Multi-Agent Orchestration

The most significant update enables Devin to orchestrate and coordinate other Devin instances, forming a managed team of agents that work in parallel. Each managed Devin operates with its own isolated virtual machine, while the main session acts as a coordinator responsible for scoping work, monitoring progress, resolving conflicts, and compiling results.

New capabilities include:

  • Session management: Create child sessions with structured output schemas and playbooks; search, filter, and analyze past sessions across shell, file, browser, git, and MCP activity
  • Knowledge management: Create, update, delete, and organize knowledge notes into folders
  • Playbook management: Create, edit, and delete playbooks with version history
  • Schedule management: Create recurring or one-time scheduled sessions with agent selection and notifications

Developer-Focused Improvements

Streaming Shell Output in worklog items allows users to monitor long-running background processes inline without switching to the terminal. The Cookie JSON Builder provides a new tabbed interface for managing secrets—users can paste raw JSON with auto-encoding to base64, validation, and expiration warnings.

New API endpoints include the Org-Level Metrics API for organization-scoped metrics and consumption data, and a new generate insights API endpoint for on-demand session analysis.

Session & Workflow Features

Users can now attach secrets when creating sessions from the home page, pin important sessions to the top of the sidebar for quick access, and view structured output from API-created sessions. Inline voice recording buttons enable hands-free messaging, and sessions can be @mentioned to reference them directly in other sessions. Markdown files now display natively in the right panel.

Additional Updates

Parent and child sessions are now grouped together in the sidebar regardless of sorting. The playbooks page shows enhanced metrics including session counts, unique users, merged PRs, and weekly activity charts. A new Devin Reviews Analytics section tracks review metrics on the usage analytics page.
