Devin CLI: Interactive step picker for /revert

Interactive step picker for /revert

/revert with no arguments now opens an interactive searchable picker showing all conversation steps. Select a step to revert to it. Double-tap Esc while the agent is idle to open the same picker.

Added

• MCP servers configured with "transport": "sse" (legacy SSE protocol) are now fully supported. Previously, these servers were rejected with an error; they now connect via the legacy SSE protocol (GET for event stream, POST for messages). Stored OAuth tokens are injected automatically, and 401 responses trigger the interactive OAuth flow.

• Terminal notification (bell + desktop notification) on successful authentication, making it easier to return to the terminal after logging in via the browser.

• /btw <prompt> asks the agent a quick side question using the current conversation context. The answer streams into a box below the agent’s output without adding the question to the main conversation, so you can check in without disrupting what the agent is working on.

• devin cloud drs subcommands for managing environment blueprints, sandbox sessions, and builds directly from the CLI.

• First-startup welcome box with tips for getting started in Devin for Terminal.

• Git provider connection prompt during devin setup: detects locally logged-in gh CLI accounts and offers to connect them to Devin, or open the browser to set up a GitHub App or other provider.

• Typing & on an empty prompt enters handoff mode, a shortcut for /handoff that mirrors the ! bash-mode pattern.

• Context-aware placeholder text in the input field guides users based on agent state: prompts to ask Devin for help when idle, suggests guiding Devin while it works, and indicates how to send queued messages.

• Support disabling individual MCP tools per server via disabledTools in the MCP config. Disabled tools are hidden from the agent and rejected at call time.

• devin mcp enable and devin mcp disable subcommands to toggle MCP servers on/off without removing them. Supports --scope (user, local, project). Disabled servers show with a (disabled) label in devin mcp list and a status line in devin mcp get.

• Support for MCP servers that require a pre-registered OAuth client (e.g. GitHub). Pass --oauth-client-id (and optionally --oauth-client-secret) to devin mcp add and devin mcp login, or set oauthClientId / oauthClientSecret in your MCP config.

• Organization selection is now part of the setup wizard. Users with multiple Devin organizations are prompted to choose one during onboarding; single-org users are auto-selected.

• /org command for selecting a Devin organization from the terminal.

• Option to hand off a plan to a cloud Devin session when exiting plan mode, available for users signed in with a Devin account.

• Ctrl+R fuzzy search for inserting previous prompts into the input box.

• Proxy configuration section in config.json for controlling how the CLI routes outbound HTTP traffic. Set proxy.mode to "system" (default), "manual", or "off", provide a proxy.url for manual mode, and use proxy.no_proxy to bypass specific hosts.

• Add terminal-light and terminal-dark theme names for 16-color terminal themes. 16color and terminal-colors remain supported for backwards compatibility with terminal-dark.

• /theme accepts an optional theme name, such as /theme dark or /theme light.

• When opening the CLI inside a repo that has a Devin wiki, the wiki is now downloaded in the background and made available to the agent on subsequent sessions, so it can answer project questions using an explore subagent.

Changed

• Browser authentication pages redesigned to show a connection status between your computer and Devin, matching the devin.ai website style.

• Login and API-key authentication labels now use Devin or generic API-key wording instead of legacy Windsurf-only wording.

• Code mode now auto-approves file edits in workspace directories. The separate “Accept Edits” mode has been folded into Code; both display as “Code” in the mode picker, with the auto-approval variant used when the org policy allows it.

• The default model is now Adaptive, which automatically routes each turn to the best model for the task. You can still pick a specific model with /model or by setting agent.model in your config.

• Declarative Repo Setup (DRS) is now a builtin agent skill instead of a /drs slash command. The agent automatically invokes it when you ask about environment setup. The devin cloud drs subcommands continue to work as before.

• Shell command previews use clearer titles and show commands with a prompt prefix in the preview body.

• Cloud handoffs now send gathered terminal context in an expandable section.

• /handoff now stops when the selected organization has no connected git provider and asks the user to run devin setup before retrying.

• New Devin CLI sessions use memorable word-pair IDs.

• Model picker now shows labeled pricing (e.g. “$5 / MTok In · $25 / MTok Out”) on the highlighted model instead of unlabeled dollar amounts.

• Slash commands now show confirmation messages when switching models, themes, or modes via the interactive picker.

• Cleaned up slash command output: removed unnecessary colors, improved spacing, and simplified progress messages.

• Improved how freeform “Other” answers are handled in agent questions. Typed responses that don’t match a predefined option are now recognized as custom answers automatically.

• /resume now opens the interactive session picker when run without a session ID.

• Rule files use tighter injection limits and switch to path-only guidance when triggered rules exceed the available context budget.

• Selection prompts now use a neutral highlighted row with clearer contrast and show item descriptions consistently.

• Normalized tool preview verb tenses: streaming previews now use present progressive (“Editing file.rs”) and completed previews use past tense (“Edited file.rs”).

• Status messages (warnings, errors, tips) now render through the Alert component with proper icons and theme-aware colors.

• Added meaningful titles to error messages: “Something went wrong”, “Quota exhausted”, “Turn limit reached”, “Couldn’t open browser”.

• Standardized “cancelled” spelling to “canceled” (one L) in all user-facing strings.

• “Connection lost, retrying…” replaces “Inference failed mid-stream, retrying…”.

• Muted text is now easier to read in both dark and light themes.

• Multiple-choice questions now use the same selection UI as other CLI prompts, including typed custom answers.

Fixed

• File writes from apply_patch now appear in the agent timeline / worklog alongside writes from the write and edit tools.

• Long sessions exit more quickly when shutting down.

• Code blocks no longer lose their last character when text fills the terminal width.

• Input responsiveness while the agent is actively streaming events.

• Numbered lists in rendered markdown now show numeric markers (1., 2., 3.) instead of bullet points.

• OpenAI reasoning models no longer fail when a request configures temperature.

• Prompt history opens while Devin is running, including when completions are visible.

• Todo list no longer disappears after the agent finishes updating it.

• /upgrade opens Devin plans instead of Windsurf pricing.

• Opening a session database that was written by a newer CLI now shows a clear “please run devin update” message instead of a raw “migration is missing from the filesystem” error.

• /handoff now sets the repo via the session config option and tags the session as “Terminal”.

• Model picker search no longer replaces family grouping with individual variants.

• The “Update vX available!” banner is no longer shown when background auto-update is going to install the new version on its own. It now only appears when the user has to take action (e.g. externally managed installs, or when auto-update has been disabled).

• File and code snippet references now render as readable paths instead of raw XML tags.
