Source: https://docs.devin.ai/get-started/devin-intro ### Observe and take over the cloud workspace The IDE, shell, and browser show the work of a cloud session; you can take over in the embedded workspace. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/get-started/devin-intro ### Local work through the CLI Devin CLI works directly with local files and tools in the terminal. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/devin-cli ### Delegate tasks to cloud Devin The local CLI can hand longer-running tasks over to a cloud session. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/get-started/devin-intro ### Work on tickets and pull requests Documented use cases include bug reports, features, tests, reviews, and prepared pull requests. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/get-started/devin-intro ### Handle multiple tasks in parallel Multiple clearly scoped backlog tasks can run in parallel as separate sessions. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/get-started/devin-intro ### Review pull requests with Devin Review Devin Review organizes diffs, answers codebase questions and examines changes for bugs and security issues. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/devin-review ## Requirements and limits ### Prepare the repository and environment Requirement: Devin needs access to the repository and a working development environment with the required dependencies and access permissions. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/get-started/devin-intro ### Cloud access from Pro Requirement: The free plan includes limited agent usage; cloud Devin is included in Pro and higher plans. Source: https://devin.ai/pricing ### Daily and weekly allowances Limitation: Included agent usage follows daily and weekly allowances. Model and task affect consumption; additional usage is billed at API rates. Source: https://devin.ai/pricing ### CLI installation through Devin Desktop Limitation: The bundled CLI installation through Devin Desktop is documented for Legacy Windsurf Enterprise and Devin Enterprise and must be enabled administratively. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/devin-cli ### Review write access requires the GitHub app Requirement: Write features on GitHub require the GitHub app. Personal access tokens support read-only reviews; Devin Review does not support Bitbucket Cloud. Source: https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/devin-review ## Example workflows ### Fix a bug from a ticket - Your input: A reproducible ticket, repository access, and specific acceptance criteria. - Possible result: A tested change with an explained approach and prepared pull request. - What to check: Review diff, tests, CI result, and actual user flow. ### Hand off a local prototype to the cloud - Your input: A local repository, current working state, and a clearly limited follow-up task. - Possible result: A cloud session that continues the longer task. - What to check: Check the transferred state, permissions, session log, and result. ## Context Devin requires repository access and a configured development environment. Cloud access starts with Pro; included usage has daily and weekly allowances. Official introduction and CLI documentation checked. Cloud tasks and local CLI work are documented. Bundled installation through Devin Desktop has separate Enterprise and administration prerequisites; the introduction itself notes possible documentation freshness gaps. ## Sources - https://docs.devin.ai/get-started/devin-intro - https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/devin-cli - https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/devin-review - https://devin.ai/pricing [Sources and method](https://agenten-kompass.mmeierhoff.chatgpt.site/en/sources/)
