# Devin

Install the ork plugin in the Devin CLI and Devin Desktop from this repository. Skills load; hooks and rules do not yet.

import { Callout } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/callout';
import { Card, Cards } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/card';
import { HostHeading, HostMark } from '@/components/host-marks';
import { HostInstall } from '@/components/host-install';

**Devin** is Cognition's coding agent: cloud sessions, the **Devin CLI**, and **Devin Desktop**. It installs plugins from a git source, so OrchestKit is a real plugin here, not a skills-only shim.

## Install

<HostInstall host="devin" />

The `#plugins/ork` fragment installs the built plugin tree directly. A bare `devin plugins install yonatangross/orchestkit` resolves the same tree through the repository's `.devin-plugin/plugin.json` (#4148). The command installs to your personal scope, so the plugin follows you to cloud sessions and your other signed-in devices. Add `--local` to keep it on this machine only.

## What loads today

Measured with Devin CLI 3000.10.27 on ork 10.0.0-beta.30 (`devin plugins info ork`):

| Surface | Status |
|:-|:-|
| Skills | 76 of 107 listed |
| Agents | In the plugin files; `plugins info` does not report them |
| Hooks | Not loaded |
| Rules | Not loaded |

Two honest gaps:

- The skills Devin skips all carry a `triggers:` frontmatter block its parser does not read. Those are mostly the pipeline skills (`implement`, `explore`, `verify` and friends), so the headliners are exactly the ones missing. This is tracked in [orchestkit#4146](https://github.com/yonatangross/orchestkit/issues/4146).
- OrchestKit's hooks are Claude Code `hooks.json` format. Devin expects `hooks.v1.json` with its own tool names, so hooks stay off until a `hooks.v1.json` ships.

<Callout type="warn">
After installing, run `devin plugins info ork`. Expect 76 skills today; if the list is empty, update the Devin CLI and reinstall.
</Callout>

Search for **devin** should land on this page. The word Devin in this heading is the product name for Cognition's agent.
