Devin Cloud: New Session Prompt and Playbook Mode
This week, Devin Cloud shipped two releases with several updates. The main change is the addition of a 'Start a new session with this prompt' button and playbook Devin mode. These changes help users manage sessions and automations more efficiently.
June 5, 2026 · June 5, 2026
This release includes several new features, such as the ‘Start a new session with this prompt’ button, playbook Devin mode, and configurable auto-reload threshold. It also fixes issues like Jira webhook failure recovery and improved Slack message formatting. Other notable changes include the ability to send messages while a session is queued and persisting chat drafts across panel close. Devin Review now posts orange action-required flags to GitHub pull requests by default. The automation editor displays the webhook URL directly under the webhook trigger, and the minimum per-session limit for automations has been lowered. The scratchpad section in the automation editor has been moved for easier discoverability.
Official release notes
Start a New Session with This Prompt
The first message in a session now shows a “Start a new session with this prompt” button, replacing the previous “Start duplicate session” menu action. Reuse any prompt for a fresh session in one click.
Playbook Devin Mode
Playbooks can now specify a Devin mode (e.g., Fast or Normal). When launching a session from a playbook, the agent picker reflects the playbook’s configured mode.
Configurable Auto-Reload Threshold
You can now customize the balance threshold that triggers auto-reload in the billing usage modal.
Jira Webhook Failure Recovery
When a Jira webhook connection fails, a banner now appears in your Jira integration settings with a one-click reconnect action to restore the connection.
Devin Review: Action-Required Flags on PRs by Default
Devin Review now posts orange action-required flags to your GitHub pull requests by default when issues are found that need investigation.
Webhook URL in Automation Editor
The automation editor now displays the webhook URL directly under the webhook trigger, so you can copy it without navigating away.
Improved Slack Message Formatting
Devin’s messages in Slack now use full markdown formatting for all users, providing richer text rendering with proper links, code blocks, and lists.
Send Messages While Session Is Queued
You can now send messages to a session that is waiting for capacity. Your messages will be delivered as soon as the session starts.
Persist Chat Draft Across Panel Close
Draft messages in the session composer are now preserved when the panel is closed and reopened, so you won’t lose work in progress.
Session Counts on Collapsed Sidebar
Session counts are now visible on collapsed sidebar section headers, giving you a quick overview without expanding each section.
Devin Review: Connect Personal Account from Blocked Controls
In Devin Review, when Review, Merge, or comment actions are blocked because your personal identity isn’t linked, you can now connect your GitHub or GitLab account directly from the blocked control without navigating to settings.
Active Todo in Slack Plan Header
The collapsed plan header in Slack threads now shows the currently active todo item, so you can see what Devin is working on at a glance.
Detect @Devin Mentions After Inviting the Bot
When you tag @Devin in a channel where the bot isn’t present and then invite it, Devin now detects and responds to your original mention.
Lower Minimum Per-Session Limit for Automations
The minimum per-session limit for automations has been lowered from 3 to 1, giving you finer-grained control over automation budgets.
Scratchpad Moved Under MCPs in Automations
The scratchpad section in the automation editor has been moved to the top level under MCPs for easier discoverability.
Prompt to Reconnect Linear
When creating a Linear automation with an expired personal token, you’ll now be prompted to reconnect before proceeding.

Official release notes
Personal Automations
You can now create personal automations that run under your own identity. Personal automations include a dedicated toggle, permission model, and badge in automation lists. The legacy Schedules page now shows migration guidance to help you transition to the new Automations system.
Devin Review: Enrolled Users, Spend Limits, and GHES/GitLab Support
Devin Review now includes an enrolled users management table in settings, a redesigned per-PR spend limit that acts as a soft block (you can re-enable if needed), and pinned section titles above file headers in the embedded review view. “Open in Devin Review” is now available for GitHub Enterprise Server and GitLab PRs.
Pre-Approve Testing
A new user preference lets you always approve testing for future sessions, so Devin can test changes without prompting each time. Access it from your profile settings or via the split-button on the “Test the app” action.
V3 API: Organization Members and Automations
New org-scoped GET /v3beta1/organizations/{org_id}/members endpoint for listing organization members. A full automations CRUD API is also now available via v3.
SSO/SCIM: JIT Provisioning and Enterprise Redirect
SSO just-in-time provisioning can now be toggled on or off, with group sync gated separately. SSO-only enterprise users are now automatically redirected to their enterprise webapp host on login.
Settings Improvements
The Repositories page now supports pagination. Search results in the settings sidebar are deduplicated with indent guides. A permission-gated “Add repositories” button and empty state have been added to Skills & Rules. Terminology has been updated from “org” to “organization” throughout.
Child Sessions: Tree Connector
Child sessions now display with a tree connector in the sidebar, making parent-child relationships visually clear.
Bug Fixes
Persisted orange sidebar indicator for quota-suspended sessions. Made question answer submission optimistic, removing click lag. Fixed send button centering at fractional zoom levels. Added email fallback for IdP users without a name in the session list. Fixed cross-org router links dropping query string and hash. Added cost column to scheduled sessions past sessions list. Cleared “Approve session” attention dot once the session is read. Restored question selections when an optimistic submit fails. Pinned bulk-edit bar to viewport bottom centered over content column. Included enterprise members in the session creator filter.
