See work across agents
The Agent Command Center groups local and cloud sessions by status, making it easier to return to the tasks that need attention.
Agents in one place
Windsurf
Give every task a place.
Windsurf's editor foundation now continues as Devin Desktop, combining hands-on coding, Cascade conversations, and a shared view of local and cloud agent work.

Windsurf at a glance
The familiar editor remains available alongside the Agent Command Center. Use its Kanban view to see active work, requests for attention, and results ready for review.
Spaces group a task's sessions, files, pull requests, and context. Cascade remains a local assistant for exploring code and making changes, with reusable workflows for recurring steps.

What it helps you do
Features & uses
Keep a project's context together
Spaces collect related files, sessions, and pull requests. New sessions can inherit shared context when that setting is enabled.
Build with Cascade
Use Code mode to modify a project and Chat mode to explore it, with editor and terminal selections included as context.

Getting started
- 1
Bring the task into a Space
Open the project and group related sessions, files, and context so the work remains easy to return to.
- 2
Choose the agent and next step
Use Cascade for a local code change, then follow task status from the Agent Command Center as the work progresses.
- 3
Review and reuse the process
Return to the editor to inspect the result. Save recurring Cascade steps as a workflow you can invoke again.
VibeAtlas editorial guidance
Is Windsurf a good fit?
A suggested evaluation, based on the documented workflow.
Evaluate task organization as well as code generation
If you already use Windsurf, start by opening a familiar project in Devin Desktop. Run a small local task and follow it through the Agent Command Center. Group the related work in a Space, then check whether its files and review context are easy to find when you return.
Before moving a team workflow, inspect the migration guide and test any recurring instructions or integrations. Keep the tool attribution on older projects clear so readers understand the Windsurf name.
Questions before you start
Frequently asked questions
Why does the Windsurf website say Devin Desktop?
The official FAQ identifies Devin Desktop as the new name for Windsurf, with the existing editor retained. VibeAtlas keeps the Windsurf route so previously attributed projects remain understandable, while linking to the current product and documentation.
Read the official explanationIs the familiar code editor still available?
Yes. The transition guide says the editor, extensions, and keybindings remain available alongside the Agent Command Center. The change brings task organization to the front of the experience rather than removing the editor workflow.
Read the official explanationWhat does Cascade do?
Cascade is the local assistant for exploring and changing a project. Code mode performs implementation work, while Chat mode supports discussion and investigation. Relevant editor and terminal selections can provide context for the conversation.
Read the official explanationDo Cascade workflows run automatically in Devin Local?
No. Cascade workflows are manually invoked procedures, and the documentation distinguishes them from Devin Local skills. Follow the documented migration process when moving recurring procedures instead of assuming the same files execute unchanged.
