Claude Dev: Open In New Tab Summary
Cline is an open-source AI coding agent that reads and writes files, runs terminal commands, and uses a browser to build features through natural conversation, with every action requiring explicit approval. It is free to use core functionality on your own API keys, with a $9.99/month ClinePass option for bundled model access and rate limits, or usage-billing with built-in payment. It runs as a CLI (`npm i -g cline`) for interactive or headless use, as well as a VS Code and JetBrains extension, a web-based Kanban task board, and an SDK for building custom agents, making it suited to individual developers and teams wanting to script or extend agent workflows rather than use a single fixed interface. Enterprise features add SSO, role-based access, and observability integrations for organizations adopting it at scale. First committed in 2024, it has 366 contributors and a release roughly every five days, with the last one 14 days ago.
Autonomous coding agent as an SDK, IDE extension, or CLI assistant.
What Cline answers
Can it extend itself with new tools or connectors instead of waiting on a built-in integration?
plugins can bundle skills and MCP servers, and third-party connectors like Slack or Telegram can be installed from a public plugin registry
Do I have to run one agent at a time?
the Kanban board runs many agents in parallel, each on its own worktree with auto-commit and dependency chains between cards
What happens when a command or file read produces a huge amount of output?
tool output is truncated and large files can be read in ranges, keeping results inside the model's context budget instead of overrunning it
Can I point it at a model provider my company already runs internally?
it supports custom or self-hosted API base URLs and Vertex AI credential-based authentication, not just the built-in billing path
Will it break my existing scripts if I mistype a command?
unknown commands and unquoted multi-word input now fail with an error instead of being silently passed to the agent as a prompt
Can one agent call on another for a subtask?
configured agents can act as subagent tools, so one workflow can delegate part of a task to another agent

- ›The
taskstool can now be configured to offer only scheduled work, disabling the Todo kind while leaving the Agenda backend intact. - ›
installMcpServerno longer treats a--separator in the install arguments as part of the stdio command. - ›Credentials embedded in git remote URLs are now redacted from the workspace information included in the system prompt.
- ›Claude Code is now marked as a subscription-billed provider, suppressing per-token prices and API-rate cost estimates; its models reuse Anthropic API pricing metadata.

- ›New files created by the file-writing tools now use the platform's native line endings.
└──▷ BREAKING ON UPGRADE- !The resolved default model changes for ClinePass (now GLM 5.3), Z.ai, Hugging Face, evroc, LLM Gateway, NanoGPT, and Weights & Biases — if you use any of these providers without pinning a model, you will get a different default after upgrading.

- desktop-v0.0.18
Cline desktop v0.0.18 adds a Marketplace page, redesigned sidebar, improved schedule UX, and credential redaction from workspace context.
└──▷ GET THIS VERSION$ git clone --branch desktop-v0.0.18 https://github.com/cline/cline.git # already have the repo? check out this version: $ git checkout desktop-v0.0.18
- ›Adds a dedicated Marketplace page consolidating plugins, MCP servers, and skills in one list with type-filter and tag chips, linked from sidebar sub-tabs and Customize headers.
- ›Sidebar is now time-sorted by default with collapsible Pinned, Scheduled, and Tasks sections and a one-click toggle to switch to project grouping.

- desktop-v0.0.17
Cline desktop v0.0.17 unifies extensions into a Customize hub, redesigns the Models page with OAuth sign-in, and adds session pinning and schedule templates.
└──▷ GET THIS VERSION$ git clone --branch desktop-v0.0.17 https://github.com/cline/cline.git # already have the repo? check out this version: $ git checkout desktop-v0.0.17
- ›Unifies Plugins, MCP, Skills, Rules, Hooks, and Tools into a single Customize hub with tabbed sections, live counts, and an inline Browse catalog — installing from the catalog immediately surfaces the item above the Browse section; the separate Marketplace page is removed.
- ›Redesigns the Models page: providers are grouped into Connected, Popular, and All categories with explicit Connect / Disconnect / Sign out actions; OAuth providers now offer browser sign-in instead of an API key field, with a collapsed manual-key fallback where supported.
- ›Moves voice input to its own Settings → Voice page that lists only transcription-capable connected providers and preselects a default model; the composer microphone button appears only after a voice model is configured.
- ›Adds suggested schedule templates to the Schedule page.
- ›Session search now opens in a dialog and searches full history rather than only sessions already loaded in the sidebar.
+4 moreshow less
- ›Sidebar sessions are always grouped by project, with pinned sessions leading each group and scheduled sessions marked by an inline clock; the Favorite action is renamed Pin.
- ›Adds dedicated New, Schedule, and Customize rows below the logo; New starts a fresh task and places the cursor directly in the composer.
- ›New files are now created with the platform-native line endings (CRLF on Windows, LF on macOS/Linux).
- ›Removes the agent todo tool and the Agenda panel; scheduled tasks are unaffected.
└──▷ BREAKING ON UPGRADE- !The Favorite action on sidebar sessions is renamed to Pin; any workflow or documentation referencing 'Favorite' must be updated.

- !The agent todo tool and Agenda panel are removed from the desktop app.
- sdk/sdk/v0.0.79
Cline SDK v0.0.79 adds AgentRouter and Opper providers and caps the hub event log at 64 MiB.
└──▷ GET THIS VERSION$ git clone --branch sdk/sdk/v0.0.79 https://github.com/cline/cline.git # already have the repo? check out this version: $ git checkout sdk/sdk/v0.0.79
- ›Adds two new model providers — AgentRouter and Opper — to the model catalog.
- ›Caps the hub's durable event log at 64 MiB on disk; oldest events are dropped first, the SQLite file is vacuumed to reclaim space, and pruning now also runs after every 16 MiB appended instead of waiting for the hourly sweep.
└──▷ BREAKING ON UPGRADE- !The resolved default model for Aki.io and NanoGPT changes in this release — if you use either provider without pinning a model you will get a different default after upgrading.
- v4.1.14
Cline v4.1.14 expands the built-in model catalog with Claude Fable 5, Grok 4.6 on Vertex, DeepSeek V4 Flash variants, and more.

- ›Langfuse traces now carry session and client identity for hub-backed and delegated-agent runs: hub sessions reconstruct client name and version from request headers, and delegated agents group under their parent session instead of appearing as unattributed traces.
└──▷ BREAKING ON UPGRADE- !The resolved default model for DeepSeek, Crof, CrossModel, Eden AI, Kilo, and NanoGPT has changed — if you use any of those providers without pinning a model, your runs will use a different model after upgrading.

- ›Agents can now create and manage scheduled tasks and a durable todo agenda, with schedules scoped to the workspace that registered them.
- ›Skill slash commands now load through the skills tool instead of being pasted into the user message, so the persisted transcript records what the user typed (e.g.
/my-skill ...) rather than the full SKILL.md body, and skill instructions arrive once instead of twice. - ›Provider model lists now carry featured tiers (Recommended/Free, and Subscribed/Free for ClinePass) plus model descriptions, served from the SDK with a cached recommended-models feed and a bundled offline fallback.
