Devin (Cognition)·high signal

On June 2, 2026, Cognition shipped an over-the-air update rebranding Windsurf to Devin Desktop, auto-porting all settings. Cascade is deprecated (end-of-life July 1, 2026) and replaced by Devin Local — a from-scratch Rust rewrite that's up to 30% more token-efficient and adds subagents — while the default UI shifts from editor canvas to an 'Agent Command Center' hub.
