Links
Devin is two destinations, not one with a fallback. The web agent at app.devin.ai and the
desktop app are separate places to send a prompt, and the tools that offer both offer them as two
buttons rather than one link that degrades. This registry follows suit: the web
link and the desktop link are listed apart, because choosing
between them is a real choice and not an implementation detail.
devin://cascade is Windsurf. Cascade was Windsurf's agent, Cognition bought Windsurf, and
Devin Desktop is that client under a new name — the scheme still says so. It is why a button
labelled "Open in Windsurf" in a docs site built this year may open Devin Desktop instead: Mintlify
still ships the menu entry under id: "windsurf", paints it with the Devin icon, and dispatches
devin-desktop. If you are looking for a windsurf:// link, this is where it went.
