Cognition AI deploys automations built on its Devin coding agent to monitor internal Slack channels, triage issues, route tasks, and shift routine engineering maintenance to autonomous operation
Cognition AI co-founder Walden Yan highlighted the internal setup in a quote tweet.
I don't think people realize how different programming feels when proactive automations are set up.
On every important Slack channel inside Cognition, we have a Devin automation monitoring all posts - triaging, solving, routing, reviewing. Devin knows who works on which parts of the codebase, who to loop in for feedback / approval, and when to chime in vs. stay silent.
The baseline hum of engineering progress is almost entirely autonomous now. Engineers steer the big bets for future product directions while Devins maintain and polish the status quo.
