Given read-only access, Devin triaged messages, let users chat directly with it to turn issues into PRs, and debugged async flows or infra on its own. Sid ranked top 200 global Devin users.

Why it matters
Keeping servers and pipelines healthy is constant, detail-heavy work. Agents that can read logs and run routine fixes are a big help, as long as a person keeps an eye on what changes. It is one of 40 sightings filed under DevOps & Infra on Agent Sightings (number 19 by interest), and one of 20 involving Devin.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Devin or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
Infra task — turn Slack feedback into PRs and debug infra. Inspect current config, propose a diff, and wait for approval before applying or restarting anything.
Tip: Try it first on a staging system or with read-only credentials, and require approval for anything that changes production.
