Buzz for Devin 0.4.25 alpha 6
Pre-releaseSource-only technical alpha for Apple Silicon and Intel macOS. No prebuilt binary is attached.
Install as a normal macOS app
If the official Devin CLI is already installed and authenticated, no Devin setup is required. The Mac also needs Xcode Command Line Tools and approximately 15 GB of temporary free space.
Copy and paste this complete chained command block:
cd "$HOME" &&
GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null git clone \
https://github.com/fenner888/BuzzforDevin.git BuzzforDevin-alpha6 &&
cd BuzzforDevin-alpha6 &&
git switch -c buzz-for-devin-alpha6 buzz-for-devin-v0.4.25-alpha.6 &&
./scripts/install-macos-source.shThe clone bypass is command-scoped and prevents local Git URL rewrites from redirecting the public repository to git-manager.devin.ai. The commands are chained so checkout and installation cannot continue after a failed clone. A public clone never requires a username or password.
The installer detects Apple Silicon or Intel, builds the reviewed source for the Mac's native architecture, ad-hoc signs and verifies it, and installs ~/Applications/Buzz for Devin.app. Later launches open the installed app and do not rebuild or reinstall it. It does not require a paid Apple Developer account, bypass Gatekeeper, or inspect or modify Devin credentials.
The installed app uses the same packaged Buzz icon treatment as Buzz for Hermes.
Maintain the installation
./scripts/update-macos-source.sh <new-release-tag>
./scripts/repair-macos-source.sh
./scripts/uninstall-buzz-for-devin-macos.shUpdate and repair preserve a recoverable previous app bundle. Uninstall moves the app to Trash and leaves Buzz data, Keychain entries, and Devin credentials untouched.
Platform status
Apple Silicon has completed live Devin ACP acceptance. The Intel app build, architecture checks, signing, and full lifecycle gates have passed; first launch and live Devin ACP acceptance on a real Intel Mac remain the final experimental-support check. Linux and Windows remain source-run experimental paths.
Scope
This release provides the native local Devin ACP runtime. It does not claim model switching, Fusion, fan-out, Outposts, cloud handoff, or cloud Devin parity. Permission requests remain explicit.
