## What changed


- **Plugin skill management**: Skills distributed via centrally governed Plugins; admins configure required/optional/forbidden plugins; orgs inherit enterprise-managed policies
- **Multi-repo code scans**: Single scan across multiple repos with per-repository details and repository filter on findings
- **Chained attack paths**: Related findings linked to show how individual vulnerabilities combine into larger risks
- **Queued messages**: Preference to auto-queue messages while Devin works; Enter sends next queued message; defaults to immediate send when Devin becomes available
- **Tasks tab**: New tab showing Devin's latest task list
- **Inline link previews**: Links render inline previews for markdown, PDF, HTML, CSV
- **Sortable tables**: Tables in chat sortable by column
- **Custom Slack emoji**: Workspace custom emoji render correctly in synced session history
- **Instant Slack unsync**: "unsync" or "!unsync" in synced Slack thread immediately stops syncing
- **Revamped Automations**: Redesigned editor, clearer trigger config, option for long-running session receiving subsequent trigger events
- **GitHub Enterprise Server support**: Automations can target GHES-hosted repos
- Fixes: improved bulk secret import with name validation, expanded keyboard shortcuts, better mobile layouts, cleaner Slack send options, more reliable MCP HTTP server tool listing
