Devin CLI: Wide character display corruption fixed

Fixed

• Wide character (CJK/emoji) display corruption no longer occurs when deleting characters adjacent to them.

Added

• Show subagent activity and lifecycle events in the Windsurf UI.

• “Mode:” and “Model:” labels in the footer are now clickable to open their selector menus.

• Mouse support in selector menus: click to select, scroll wheel to navigate, hover to highlight.

• Autocomplete for /continue and /rm-session commands showing recent sessions with ID prefix, time ago, and title.

• Added --force flag to devin update and /update to force re-install even when already on the latest version.

• Added support for reading hooks from .devin/hooks.v1.json, a standalone hooks file using the same format as Claude Code hooks

• Show subagent prompt in the expanded view (Ctrl+O) when a subagent completes.

• Stream subagent actions in the live display while waiting on a foreground subagent or a read_subagent call.

• New notify config option that controls terminal notifications when the agent finishes, needs input, or requests tool approval. Set to "never", "smart" (default), or "always". In smart mode, notifications are only sent when the terminal window is unfocused. Triggers dock badge and notification banners in supported terminal emulators.

Changed

• devin mcp add no longer requires --transport or --command for the common stdio case — transport is inferred from --url (HTTP) or trailing args (stdio), and the first trailing arg is used as the command when --command is omitted

• /mode now opens an interactive dropdown selector (like /model) instead of printing a static list. Use arrow keys to navigate, Enter to confirm, Esc to cancel.

• -p/--print now accepts an optional inline prompt, so devin -p "fix the bug" works without needing the -- separator. The old devin -p -- fix the bug syntax continues to work.

• Added “(ctrl+o to expand)” hint to truncation notices so users know how to view full output.

Fixed

• Skipping a tool call in Windsurf no longer stops the agent — the LLM now sees the rejection and can try an alternative approach

• Tool failure messages now show the error reason in Windsurf instead of just “Failed” with no explanation.

• /add-dir and /undo-add-dir now handle directory paths containing spaces. Slash command arguments are parsed with shell-style quoting (e.g. /add-dir "my dir" or /add-dir my\ dir), and tab completions automatically escape spaces in directory names.

• “Always allow” for command permissions now persists correctly even when running outside a git repository.

• Text visibility improved when the terminal background doesn’t match the selected color theme.

• Alphabetic sorting in directory completion menus now correctly places shorter names before longer ones with the same prefix (e.g. devin/ before devin-docs/).

• Mode is now properly restored on session resume.

• Silent crashes no longer occur when a corporate proxy or firewall resets a network connection mid-session.

• Thinking output now always renders before content when a model skips the ThinkingComplete event.

• Fixed double authentication prompts on Windows during initial setup.

• Fixed Windows installer placing files in the wrong directory, causing PATH to point to the wrong location

• Fixed large images (over 5 MB) failing to send.
