Keep Devin.
Give it your machines.

AI Commander is not an alternative to Devin, Augment Code, Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Sourcegraph Cody, Grok, Gemini, Windsurf, Continue, Cline, Roo Code, Zed, OpenCode, Qwen Code, goose, Amp, Kilo Code, OpenHands, or Amazon Q Developer. It is the remote-machine harness those tools plug into over MCP: outbound-only shell, detached jobs that outlive the chat, and file transfer on hardware you already own.

Connect Devin (MCP HTTP)

Devin by Cognition (custom MCP docs · CLI MCP config) supports custom remote MCP servers over HTTP (Streamable HTTP) in Cloud sessions and the Devin CLI. Point it at AI Commander’s hosted MCP endpoint:

Settings → Connections → MCP servers
→ Add a custom MCP
→ Transport: HTTP
→ Server URL: https://aicommander.dev/mcp

CLI / local config (~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json or .devin/mcp_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aicommander": {
      "url": "https://aicommander.dev/mcp",
      "transport": "http"
    }
  }
}

Prefer a local stdio bridge? Add a STDIO custom MCP with command npx and args -y @aicommander/mcp (optional env AICOMMANDER_SERVER=https://aicommander.dev).

Devin MCP docs: Using MCP with Devin · CLI MCP configuration.

First connect may open a one-time browser sign-in (OAuth Dynamic Client Registration). For a code-only first hour without that flow, append ?anonymous=1 to the MCP URL. For optional account features (saved aliases), pass a Bearer API key as an Auth Header where Devin supports it.

What you get that the session alone cannot

• Remote shell on Linux, macOS, and Windows — by session code or saved alias.
• Detached jobs for builds, training, and headless agents on the box that has the repo.
• Fleet list + GPU facts so Devin (or any sibling client) picks the right machine before it burns an hour.
• File courier (Pro) for checkpoints and diffs up to 100 MiB.

Alongside Devin — not instead of it

Devin Outposts run Devin Cloud sessions with execution on infrastructure you operate. AI Commander does not replace Outposts or Devin Cloud. It is the shared MCP harness so Devin and your other coding tools can reach the same outbound-only fleet for shell, jobs, and files.
