Knaves, a conditional, and a head count

Asked at DRW, Akuna

On the island of knights (always truthful) and knaves (always lying), four residents each make a claim:

  • Ada: "Bo and Cy are both knaves."
  • Bo: "If I am a knight, then Dev is a knight."
  • Cy: "At least one of Ada and Dev is a knave."
  • Dev: "Exactly three of us are knights."

Sort each of the four into knight or knave.
