Monitor Devin sessions from your MacBook notch

What is Devin?

Devin is Cognition's autonomous AI software engineer. You describe a task, and it plans the work, edits code, runs commands, and reports back — using its own CLI, or through the Cascade desktop surface. Long autonomous runs are exactly when a notch monitor earns its keep: you find out the moment Devin needs a decision or finishes, instead of checking back every few minutes.

Vibe Island is an independent notch companion for Devin, not a Cognition product. Install Devin, launch Vibe Island once, and the integration configures itself.

Real-time session monitoring

Devin CLI sessions appear in the notch the moment they start. Watch the status change as it works through a task and finishes a turn. When several agents run in parallel, each session card is tagged so you can tell them apart at a glance.

Approve permissions from the notch

When a Devin CLI session asks to run a command, the notch panel expands with Allow and Deny buttons. Approve or reject in place — no need to find the terminal window first. Your decision goes straight back to Devin, and the session keeps moving.

Precise terminal jump

Click any Devin CLI session in the notch and Vibe Island finds the exact tab and split pane — iTerm2, Ghostty, Warp, Terminal.app, WezTerm, Kitty, Zellij, VS Code, Cursor, and more. Works with tmux sessions and split panes.

Desktop sessions, tracked read-only

Devin's Cascade desktop surface also shows up on the notch — status, tool activity, and completion, all visible at a glance. Approvals for desktop sessions stay in Devin's own interface; Vibe Island watches and reports without getting in the way.

Task completion notifications

When a Devin turn finishes, Vibe Island sends a macOS notification. Click it to jump straight back to where Devin was running — no more checking back every few minutes to see if a long task is done.

Zero config setup

Vibe Island auto-configures Devin on first launch. No manual editing, no API keys to wire up. Just install Vibe Island and start using Devin. Existing settings are preserved — nothing is overwritten.

Run alongside other agents

Mix Devin with Claude Code, Codex CLI, ZCode, Gemini CLI, Antigravity CLI, Cursor Agent, Trae, OpenCode, MiMoCode, Factory Droid, Qoder, QoderWork, Qwen, QwenWork, Grok Build, Kimi Code, DeepSeek, DeepSeek Harness (DSH), Mistral Vibe, Copilot, CodeBuddy, WorkBuddy, Kiro, Hermes, Amp, Pi Agent, Oh My Pi, and Gajae Code. Every session appears in the same notch panel, so you can run multiple agents in parallel and monitor them at a glance. Works on remote servers via SSH too.
