Windsurf 2.0: historical overview

Windsurf 2.0 was the April 2026 release that turned Windsurf into a control center for local and cloud coding agents. The Windsurf editor has since been rebranded as Devin Desktop, so this page is a historical guide to that release and its current successor.

What Windsurf 2.0 was

Windsurf 2.0 launched on April 15, 2026 with an Agent Command Center for monitoring multiple local and cloud agents from a Kanban-style view. It also embedded Cognition's Devin cloud agent directly in the editor.

The product did not simply disappear. Official documentation now calls the editor Devin Desktop and describes the old Windsurf package as a transitional package that continues to update existing installations. New buyers should evaluate Devin Desktop rather than treating Windsurf 2.0 as a separately maintained product.

Past capabilities

What Windsurf 2.0 offered

Agent Command Center

A Kanban-style control surface for seeing which local and cloud agents were working, blocked, or ready for review.

Windsurf Spaces

Project workspaces grouped agent sessions, pull requests, files, and task context in one place.

Embedded Devin

Developers could hand a local plan to Devin's cloud agent for implementation without leaving the editor.

Integrated review

Pull requests created by Devin could be reviewed in Windsurf, with local agents available for follow-up edits.

Availability

Why this listing is historical

Windsurf 2.0 is no longer sold as a separate current product. At launch, Devin was described as included with every Windsurf plan; the successor is now priced under Devin plans, including Free, Pro at $20/month, Max at $200/month, Teams at $80/month plus $40 per full developer seat, and custom Enterprise pricing.

  • Windsurf 2.0 is a historical release name rather than the current product identity.
  • Current features and pricing belong to Devin Desktop and may differ from the April 2026 launch experience.
  • Parallel agents can create review overhead and still require careful testing before code is merged.
