Enhancing Your Workflow with PromptDC
PromptDC provides a suite of tools and resources to help you get the most out of Devin.ai.
Prompt the site build in both environments
Use PromptDC for Chrome to clarify the page structure, responsive behavior, and acceptance criteria in Devin.ai's web prompt box. Later, PromptDC Desktop can refine a selected terminal prompt for a CLI-based build, test, or deployment task.
One desktop app for Devin.ai and every terminal
The PromptDC desktop app for macOS and Windows enhances selected text in Devin.ai, every browser, IDE chat panel, desktop AI app and terminal. Use Cmd+Shift+E or Ctrl+Shift+E to open an editable review, then Replace or Copy.
PromptDC is the first desktop app to enhance prompts inside terminal CLIs, including Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Grok, Agy and OpenCode. Choose the Code profile for implementation-ready prompts, and set it as the default profile for each coding app or terminal.
The Chrome extension and IDE extensions are optional. Chrome adds in-place rewriting without Accessibility permission, while IDE extensions add a target-agent picker and Simple or Structured output; the desktop app already covers browser fields, IDE chats and terminals.
