Cline v3.31 adds experimental Voice Mode (OpenAI Whisper) for conversational workflows and a cleaner task header with manual context compression. It also introduces YOLO Mode, which disables safety prompts for fully a...

Cline's stealth model code-supernova is free in alpha with unlimited access. It provides a 200k-token context window and multimodal (screenshots, diagrams) support, tuned for agentic, tool-based coding.

Cline v3.28 extends free access to xAI's grok-code-fast-1, speeding iterative agentic coding. It also refines GPT-5 prompts for multi-step tool workflows and adds UX, search, Windows support, and integrations.

Replace persistent clinerules with on-demand Cline workflows. They run only when invoked, cut token costs, and automate PR reviews, deployments, and other multi-step tasks while preserving human approval.

Sonoma Sky and Dusk Alpha bring 2M-token context windows and fast inference but lag on accuracy in real coding edits (Sky 84%, Dusk 87%). Use them for experimentation; stick with proven models for production.

Cline unveils an agentic coding plugin for JetBrains IDEs. Powered by Claude 3.7 Sonnet, it uses a human-in-the-loop GUI to approve edits and commands. It relies on MCP-based extensibility for large Java and Android p...

A guide outlines a fully local Cline setup using LM Studio and Qwen3 Coder 30B, with specific configuration for context length, quantization, and VS Code integration.

A Cline blog post by Ara Khan highlights three recurring pitfalls in AI agent work: multi-agent orchestration, codebase RAG, and overstuffed prompts, drawing on recent model behavior and industry references.

Cline has introduced its own model, Sonic, with a 262k context window and free alpha access aimed at coding workflows.

The Cline Team has published a useful guidance post on managing model context, detailing Focus Chain, Auto Compact, Deep Planning, /smol, /newtask, editing checkpoints, and the Memory Bank with .clinerules.

The insights may also be valuable to users outside the Cline ecosystem.

Cline has introduced Focus Chain, a context-forward planning system intended to reduce agent drift in long coding tasks, alongside a two-stage “deep-planning” workflow. The post explains the rationale and design.

OpenAI’s GPT-5 is now supported in Cline, offering enhanced coding performance and reliability at roughly half the cost of Sonnet 4.
