Summary
In its July 4, 2026 release, Windsurf (now Devin Desktop) made the Devin Local agent produce reviewable diffs from edits made in autonomous mode, added a sandbox configuration option to let specific commands run outside the sandbox, fixed command-approval parsing for PowerShell variable assignments, and improved cloud session management with auto-reconnection.
What changed
Devin Local now generates reviewable diffs from autonomous-mode edits, supports designating specific commands to run outside the sandbox, corrects PowerShell command-approval parsing, and auto-reconnects cloud sessions.
Why it matters
Reviewable diffs from autonomous runs give developers an inspection point before accepting agent changes, while granular in- and out-of-sandbox command control lets teams balance safety against the need to run trusted local tooling - the practical guardrails required to trust a local autonomous agent.
