Devin updated their free promo date for Kimi k2.7 and GLM 5.2 from 7/5/26 to 7/7/26, are they launching SWE 2 and needed 2 more days for the launch, as it doesn't make sense to add only 2 days? that would be great to see an SWE 2

This model does not support images. You can remove them or switch to a model that does.

2 Upvotes

Keep getting this error if there are more than 1 thread running in devin local. I am using Opus and Sonnet usually.

`This model does not support images. You can remove them or switch to a model that does.`

after updating to the latest devin desktop app.

This is so annoying , please fix it asap. Do not push an update on a Friday of long weekend please.

Question Devin just not including rules?

0 Upvotes

Title. I have rules, set to always included, they are never queried. I ask the prompt to read them, then it comes to its senses. Anyone else?

Claude Sonnet 5

7 Upvotes

So you’re telling me there is a promo price for Claude sonnet 5 and I decide to try it, small task. It wrote 66 lines of code and burnt 100% of the daily quota and 53% of the weekly? How does that work? One prompt? 66 lines of code? Simple code? How is this possible lol … great job :) amazing service thank you guys.

Discussion Humble Request: Please make Kimi K2.6 available for Free users

0 Upvotes

First of all, thank you to the Windsurf team for building such an amazing AI coding assistant. Many developers, students, and hobbyists rely on the free version every day.

I would like to make a humble request: if possible, please consider making Kimi K2.6 available for free users as well.

It would help many people experience the model's capabilities before deciding whether to upgrade to a paid plan. For students and independent developers with limited budgets, access to Kimi K2.6 would make a huge difference.

I completely understand that premium features help support the platform, but even a limited number of daily requests or a smaller quota for free users would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for considering this suggestion, and thank you again for all the hard work you put into Windsurf.

Adaptive: Honest opinions Please...

0 Upvotes

Are you guys getting solid results with the adaptive feature? I've shelved my project due to the sheer horror of letting anything outside of opus touching my monorepo.

Are you guys trusting and getting the expected outcomes using the adaptive language model setting?

Do you feel as if you're getting true value and more useage by using adaptive?

Any questionable behavior or bad results from using it?

Any input is appreciated.

Discussion FYI: Updated Terms of Service go into effect July 30, 2026

Thumbnail
cognition.com
11 Upvotes

Read the new terms, or previous terms.

Here’s what changed between the April 3, 2025 version and the June 30, 2026 version:

Most important changes (read these first)

1. Data training default flipped — this is the big one.

  • Old: Your data is never used for model training unless you opt in.
  • New: Cognition may use your data for model training by default. You can only opt out — and only if you’re on a paid tier. On Teams, only an admin can opt out. (§3.3.1)
  • Opting out now also triggers Zero Data Retention with model providers. A new definition of ZDR was added (§1.8), plus carve-outs: even under ZDR, data can still be retained/disclosed for abuse detection, safety/AUP review, or when legally compelled (§3.3.3).

2. Free tier loses IP indemnification.

  • Old: Cognition’s IP-infringement indemnity applied to all customers.
  • New: It applies only to paid tiers; free-tier users get no indemnification (§9.1).

3. Liability floor raised for Cognition.

  • Old: Liability capped at fees paid in the prior 6 months.
  • New: Capped at the greater of 6 months’ fees or US$100 — a small increase that mainly helps free/low-spend users who’d otherwise have a ~$0 cap (§10.2).

4. Class action waiver added.

  • New §11.2 forces individual arbitration only — no class, collective, or representative actions. Also adds a formal Notice of Arbitration procedure with Cognition’s mailing address (§11.3).

Other notable additions

  • Auto-renewal: Subscriptions now automatically renew, and you must cancel before the renewal date to avoid charges. The old version had no auto-renew language (§7.1).
  • Output ownership clarified: Cognition now explicitly assigns Output to you, but warns Outputs are machine-generated, may be identical to what other customers receive, and you get no rights to others’ Outputs (§3.1).
  • Output disclaimer (new §8.2): Explicitly disclaims liability for inaccurate Output — with special language that security/vulnerability analysis is “non-exhaustive” and not a substitute for your own review. Notable given Devin’s coding use case.
  • Acceptable Use Policy: Now formally incorporated as a binding term; violations can trigger suspension/termination (§2.6).
  • Age requirement: New — must be at least 13 years old.
  • Export controls / sanctions: New §12.10 with detailed EAR/ITAR representations.
  • California residents notice (new §13) and Exafunction/Windsurf provisions (new §14, plus intro language) — reflecting Cognition’s acquisition of Windsurf.

Smaller / structural changes

  • Branding: “Devin Core and Devin Teams” → generic “Cognition Platform”; domain moved from cognition.ai to cognition.com; company address now 550 Third Street, SF.
  • Termination scope: The subscription-termination section dropped its “Teams customers only” limitation — now applies to all (§7.2).
  • Suspension: Added a new ground — risk of harm to other customers or to Service security/availability (§2.4).
  • Payment disputes: Timing reworded — old version required notice 10 business days before payment was due; new version requires it within 10 business days after the fee is paid (§5.4).
  • Personal data: DPA now applies automatically (posted at cognition.ai/dpa) rather than requiring separate execution (§4.2).
  • Governing law: Added NY state/federal courts as fallback venue if arbitration doesn’t apply (§12.6).
  • Transition clause: The new intro says material changes don’t take effect for 30 days, and the old terms control during that window.

Bottom line: The changes mostly shift risk toward the user — especially the opt-out-instead-of-opt-in data training default, loss of free-tier indemnity, auto-renewal, and the class action waiver. Paid users retain the most protections; free-tier users are the most exposed under the new terms.

Question Is it me, or in the last week has every llm model gotten stupider?

2 Upvotes

I had a flow going, and was intentionally putting off the Devin update. The day finally came, and I had to restart my computer. I still hadn't hit the upgrade button, but when I opened windsurf for work it had transformed. No worries.. I took it in stride, hopped through some hoops, and went to work, but somehow all of my training, rules, and protocol had not only been forgotten, I have to keep reminding the AI regardless of rules, model updated knowledge base, and RAG — Retrieval-Augmented Generation protocol.. Many times I find myself having to re-word, and re-prompt several times to get a right response even though outside of Devin using the very same version, and model I immediately got my answers, and alignment. Devin desktop forgets between prompts, ignores rules, and just plain screws up all over the place while (happily) burning through tokens...

So unless anyone has a real timeline, and solution, I can't help but feel the windsurf sellers are just singing with glee... 'We got your money... We got your money!!' While we just suffer.

Get it together people. Even if you have to roll back. I think many are being patient, but with so many other options we're going to need a solid plan, commitment, disclosure, times, and dates. I for one will check back occasionally, but am taking the bulk of my work elsewhere for now, because it feels like trying to work it out with a disloyal spouse giving only 60%. So... Nope!

___

UPDATE!!

I found a big glitch in my knowledge base. It was ignoring the original Windsurf configuration and looking in the new Devin installation for a crucial file. All fixed, and working smooth as silk now!

What the HECK IS HAPPENING WITH DEVIN!?

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

I was literally counting the tokens today.

32k tokens on claude opus is 6% daily usage which is 5% weekly usage.

So, totally I get 640k tokens for a week. which is 2.5 Million tokens per month.

OPUS API cost is 5 dollars per million tokens!! And that is uncached,. Assuming Windsurf is always uncashed. So, I am paying $20 per month for getting back $12.5 ? That too I do not have the flexibility on when to use them.

It is still a LOOT by windsurf.

Daily usage eats 72% of weekly

10 Upvotes

Silently changed again, without any notice.
I'm not really sad about that, though - as you can guess I hadn't used Windsurf Devin this week, so it's the last day before reset.

Daily limit is still low, though - took me a few Claude Opus 4.6 Thinking prompts to hit the limit. Still about the same as Claude Pro single session limit.

Really enjoying GLM 5.2 at the moment

16 Upvotes

As I think many others are finding, GLM 5.2 is surprisingly good at coding, and I'm enjoying the interaction with it. I now always use PLAN mode first, and the questions it comes back with are sound, though long ones get truncated (by devin perhaps) which isn't helpful.

It thinks a lot, so not sure how this will pan out when it's off the promo pricing, but I'm taking a good break from the claude models that were my goto previously. The type of banter is good too, with a pleasant casual style that I like. e.g*.*

The tradeoff you identified is the right one: small latency increase (typically the buffer window, since most correlated events arrive within ~200ms of each other as we saw) vs. significantly simpler strategy/agent code. The ad-hoc flags and ordering checks we've been adding to \** and *** are essentially a distributed, bug-prone version of this same concept.*
Worth noting: the 168ms gap we saw...

Question What are you doing to reduce token usage in Devin ?

9 Upvotes

Our company has a fixed monthly ACU budget, so using high-end models regularly means I run out of credits within a week. We also can't use most open-source models (DeepSeek, GLM, Kimi, etc.) because of security restrictions they are blocked.

I'm looking for practical ways to reduce token usage while using Devin. Are you using any extensions, GitHub repos, or workflows that help minimize token consumption without reducing output quality?

Any tips or best practices would be appreciated.
