Summary

This is a 15-second clip with no speech. It shows Devin, Cognition's AI coding agent, being run from its iOS mobile app to build an iOS app, which the creator calls "Inception". The post has no tutorial steps. It only shows that you can now hand off and steer coding-agent work from a phone.

Key points

• Devin, Cognition's autonomous AI software engineering agent, has an iOS mobile app.
• The demo shows someone using the Devin iOS app to ask Devin to build an iOS app, the 'Inception' joke in the caption.
• You can now start and check on coding-agent tasks from your phone instead of a desktop IDE.
• The video has no narration or written steps, so it is a showcase, not a tutorial.
