Walden Yan, Cognition co-founder, participated in a May 18, 2026 panel at Anthropic's Code with Claude event. Devin operates as an autonomous coding agent that runs its own computer and requires product rewrites around model inflection points. The panel covered Claude Code updates including remote control, worktrees, and routines alongside Managed Agents with sandboxed execution. Anthropic reported Q1 2026 revenue growth of 80x and $30 billion annualized sales by early April 2026. Cognition positions Devin within the expanding ecosystem of Claude-powered tools including Cursor and Harvey.
