AI tool overview
Devin Desktop, formerly Windsurf, combines a full code editor with a command center for local and cloud coding agents.
Devin Desktop is the current name for the product previously called Windsurf. Its official page says the existing IDE remains available while the product adds a central place to plan, delegate, and review work across coding agents. The page also describes code navigation, autocomplete, debugging, and agent diff review. This makes it useful for developers who want to inspect and direct agent work from the same environment where they edit code. The provider says existing Windsurf plans, settings, extensions, and in-progress work carry over through the update. Agent changes still need human review and relevant tests before they are merged. This profile uses the current product name while recording its prior name for people searching for Windsurf.
