Cognition rolled out Windsurf 2.0 on Wednesday, reshaping its IDE around managing agents rather than just writing code. The launch post centers on two additions: an Agent Command Center and native integration of Devin, the company's autonomous cloud coder.
The command center is a Kanban board that surfaces every running session, local Cascade and cloud Devin alike, grouped by status. A new unit called Spaces bundles agent sessions, pull requests, files, and project context around a single task. Sessions started inside a Space inherit that context automatically, which skips the usual chore of re-explaining the codebase each time.
Devin runs on its own VM with a desktop and browser, and Cognition says work continues after the user closes their laptop. In a companion post, the company frames the split as local agents for planning, cloud agents for delegation. Devin's PRs come back into Windsurf for review, where they can be handed to a local agent for touch-ups.
Devin is bundled into Pro, Max, and Teams tiers and consumes the standard Windsurf quota, though access is rolling out gradually. Enterprise customers need admin enablement plus separate Cognition Platform access. New GitHub connections get up to $50 in extra usage credits.
The release closes a loop Cognition has been telegraphing since its Windsurf acquisition in July 2025. At the time, the plan was to keep the IDE standalone. That's over.
Bottom Line
Devin is now bundled into Windsurf's Pro, Max, and Teams plans, with enterprise access gated behind a separate Cognition Platform purchase.
