pi-devin

A Pi package that uses Devin Local models inside Pi.

Pi stays the harness. The local Devin CLI owns login and the live model catalog (devin auth, devin models list). This package does not wrap Devin as an ACP agent and does not use the old pi-devin-auth cloud-only shim.

Why this exists

pi-devin-auth treated Devin as Cascade cloud chat. Models like Sol High, Opus 5, and Fable 5 then failed with:

This model is only in Devin Local.

Zed works because it launches devin acp — Devin Local. This package uses that same local CLI for auth + catalog, then streams completions into Pi so Pi's tools, sessions, and UI stay in charge.

Requirements

  • Pi Coding Agent 0.80+
  • A signed-in Devin CLI (devin auth status)
  • Node 18+

The CLI binary is resolved in this order:

  1. $DEVIN_CLI
  2. ~/.local/bin/devin, Homebrew, /usr/local/bin/devin
  3. Devin.app
  4. Zed's ACP registry install (~/Library/Application Support/Zed/external_agents/registry/devin/.../bin/devin)
  5. which devin

Install

Local (this repo):

pi install /Users/kashyab/pi-devin

After you publish to npm:

pi install npm:pi-devin

From git:

pi install git:github.com/<you>/pi-devin

Restart Pi or run /reload.

Usage

/login devin
/model devin/claude-opus-5-high
/model devin/claude-5-fable-high
/model devin/gpt-5-6-sol-high

/login devin runs devin auth login if ~/.local/share/devin/credentials.toml is missing. If you already signed in through Devin Desktop, the CLI, or Zed, that file is reused.

Commands:

  • /devin-status — CLI path, version, auth
  • /devin-refresh — reload devin models list --format json

What this is / is not

This package Not this package
Pi is the agent Devin ACP taking over the session
Devin CLI for auth + catalog Fake Windsurf OAuth paste flow
Live CLI families (Opus 5, Fable 5, Sol, …) Hardcoded 11-model cloud allowlist
Completions streamed into Pi tools devin acp as the editor host

Publish

This is a standard Pi package (keywords: ["pi-package"] + pi.extensions). After you push to npm with that keyword, it can show up on pi.dev/packages.
