Does it fit your conditions?

You want to review local or cloud coding work from an agent workspace.

Setup

Install an app

Interface

Editor, Desktop app, Browser

Access

Product account

Workspace

Independent workspace

Choose Desktop or Cloud and configure the repository and development environment for that mode.

Reviewed scope: Devin Desktop includes the former Windsurf editor; Cloud has separate execution conditions.

Coding and office fit

Desktop and Cloud do not automatically share all secrets, dependencies, or runtime state.

Costs and context

Product plan / usage

Check the allowance and execution charges for the selected mode.

Reduce unnecessary work: Provide runnable setup and test instructions so the agent spends less effort rediscovering the environment.

Measured tokens / task

Measured cost / task

Unknown — not measured

Compare the same deliverable and acceptance criteria, including retries and your review time. Local execution does not establish local model processing.

Try one real task

1. Choose Desktop or Cloud and configure the repository and development environment for that mode.
2. Start with a small task: Delegate an engineering task and inspect the resulting changes.
3. Check the result against your original files and acceptance criteria before expanding the workflow.

Before relying on this workflow, check the current plan, device, region, language, file format, and required permissions.

Bring your work with you

Preserve repository state and instructions; verify environment variables and dependencies in the destination without exporting secrets.

A reviewed brief can carry context. Native history, internal memory, account permissions, and running tasks are not assumed to transfer.
