First public release of Cline Code for macOS: a desktop app for running and inspecting Cline agent sessions, signed and notarized for Apple Silicon and Intel. · Automatic updates: the app checks on launch and every 2 hours, downloads new versions in the background, and prompts for a one-click restart. Ignored updates apply on the next launch. · Download the DMG once from GitHub Releases — every future release arrives automatically.
Fixed out-of-credits detection so the CLI reliably recognizes the Cline API's real `insufficient_credits` (402) error and shows the "add credits" card instead of a generic error · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/cli-v3.0.45...cli-v3.0.46
Smaller install: the Claude Code and Codex providers are now optional and loaded on demand, cutting `npm i -g cline` from ~640MB to ~285MB (from SDK v0.0.65) · Kimi K3 is now available as a ClinePass model (from SDK v0.0.65) · Runs now retry once after refreshing expired OAuth credentials (from SDK v0.0.65) · Team runs: the spawn tool is no longer exposed to teammates, and errored teammate runs now report as failed instead of completed (from SDK v0.0.65) · Hub status output now includes version
Claude Code and Codex provider SDKs are now optional peer dependencies loaded on demand, dramatically cutting install size · Added Kimi K3 to the bundled ClinePass model fallback · Runs now retry once after refreshing expired OAuth credentials · Team runs: the spawn tool is no longer exposed to teammate agents · Team runs: errored teammate runs now report as failed instead of completed
Improved max output token handling across providers (gateway routing, OpenAI vendor, and reasoning models) (from SDK v0.0.64) · Frontmatter and configuration files that start with a UTF-8 byte order mark (e.g. saved by Windows editors) now parse correctly (from SDK v0.0.64) · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/cli-v3.0.43...cli-v3.0.44
Improved max output token handling across providers (gateway routing, OpenAI vendor, and reasoning models) · Frontmatter and user-instruction files that start with a UTF-8 byte order mark (e.g. saved by Windows editors) now parse correctly · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/sdk/sdk/v0.0.63...sdk/sdk/v0.0.64

The session runtime now emits `task.mistake_limit_reached` telemetry when the consecutive-mistake limit is hit, so every host (CLI, VS Code extension, hub daemon) captures it — including auto-stops when no host prompt is configured · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/sdk/sdk/v0.0.62...sdk/sdk/v0.0.63
Add GPT-5.6 ChatGPT subscription models. · Soften and shorten the message shown when Cline hits the consecutive mistake limit. · Handle cumulative usage snapshots from OpenAI-compatible providers so token counts are no longer over-reported. · Load skills from files saved as UTF-8 with a byte-order mark (BOM). · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/v4.0.8...v4.0.9
Fixed Ollama native API routing so context window and timeout settings work again · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/cli-v3.0.41...cli-v3.0.42

Add more models to the GCP Vertex provider, plus a free-form entry option in the model dropdown for specifying custom Vertex models. · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/v4.0.7...v4.0.8
You can now select Cline free models on the ClinePass provider in the model picker · Removed the retired ClinePass GLM 5.1 model · Fixed OpenAI Codex model metadata under the GPT Subscription provider · `str_replace` edits now report accurate diffs · Fixed context compaction so canonical session history is preserved
Add a ClinePass limit-reached error with a one-click option to switch to Cline usage-based billing. · Allow selecting Cline free models on the ClinePass provider, organized into Subscribed and Free tabs with model descriptions. · Refine ClinePass onboarding and provider settings copy, and open the "learn more" link via the in-app URL handler. · Remove the Cline model picker recommendation copy. · Remove all references to GLM 5.1.
New plan/act accent palette: act mode is now blue (`#79b8ff`) and plan mode amber, replacing the old cyan/yellow — applied across dialogs, the model selector, config, onboarding, markdown, and syntax highlighting, with light-theme variants tuned for contrast · Restyled chat input: a minimal frame with full-width horizontal rules and a bold accent prompt glyph instead of the tinted background, plus slimmer user-message bubbles · Assistant markdown accents are now tinted by the mode (plan/act) the
Weaker models (e.g. DeepSeek) that emit malformed tool calls — wrong argument types or truncated JSON — are now handled gracefully and run instead of erroring out · Plan/act mode switches are now visible to the model, so it knows when you change modes mid-session · Fixed plan/act mode notices being dropped from prompts sent to the model · Fixed a race where switching modes in an empty session could trigger an unexpected restart · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/cli-v3.
Fixed plan mode's `switch_to_act_mode` tool not taking effect until the end of the turn: the model would keep running with plan-mode tools (no file editor) and fall back to editing files through shell commands. Switching to act mode now ends the plan-mode run and automatically continues with the approved plan using the full act-mode toolset. A Tab mode toggle racing a completing turn can no longer auto-start plan execution you didn't approve. · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/

Enable the ClinePass provider for all users by removing the feature-flag gate that previously fell back to the standard Cline provider. · **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/v4.0.2...v4.0.3
### Added Add the SDK-backed VS Code extension runtime. Cline now runs tasks through the shared Cline SDK session layer for agent turns, tools, Plan/Act mode coordination, MCP, checkpoints, telemetry, provider changes, compaction, mistake limits, and task history. Add ClinePass to the VS Code extension, including onboarding, provider selection, signup and subscription handoff, live model lists, en
### Fixed Complete the fix for the Anthropic provider on VS Code 1.123 and later by upgrading the bundled Anthropic SDK to a release compatible with the Node 24 runtime. Update the Vertex AI provider to a compatible Anthropic Vertex SDK release so it works with the upgraded Anthropic SDK.
### Fixed Restore the Anthropic provider on VS Code 1.123 and later, where the updated Node 24 runtime broke the bundled Anthropic SDK. Handle the DeepSeek V4 reasoning format.
### Fixed Fix `@` file mentions and workspace file search on VS Code 1.122+ by resolving the new bundled `@vscode/ripgrep-universal` per-platform binary layout before falling back to legacy ripgrep paths.
### Fixed Fix `@` file mentions failing to find files in some environments (notably VS Code Remote SSH, and after certain VS Code updates) by keeping the file-search fallback alive when the workspace index or bundled ripgrep binary is unavailable.
