Devin now lets users create, steer, resume and watch Cloud sessions from the terminal. The commands are `devin --cloud` or `/cloud`. Users can hand off a task to Devin Cloud without leaving the terminal. Cloud sessions persist after the terminal closes. `/open [web|desktop]` switches the session to the web or desktop app. `devin --cloud --resume` brings a cloud session back to the terminal. Full SSH access to Devin VMs is now available. `devin ssh` connects to the remote VM for direct code editing and testing. `/handoff` in a cloud session can pull the work back to a local environment. Free SWE-2 sessions are available until 8 October 2026.
