Collaborative by nature, autonomous when permitted
Cline plans before it edits, asks questions when something is unclear, and shows every change before it ships. When you approve, it can run on its own for larger refactors or scripted workflows.
Built in collaboration with the model labs
Cline is tuned for frontier models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, xAI, and leading open source labs. Each model is prompted for optimal performance inside Cline.
Built with a community of millions
Over 250 contributors, 50k stars, and a developer community on Discord, Reddit, and X.
Why enterprises choose Cline
We don't see your code and prompts
Client-side architecture. When you bring your own inference, data flows from you to your provider. We're not in the middle.
Bring your own inference
Connects directly to Amazon Bedrock, GCP Vertex, Azure OpenAI, or models running on your servers. Keep data within your security perimeter.
Deploy on your infrastructure
Secure your data by deploying within VPC, on-prem, or air-gapped environments. You control where it runs and how it's configured.

Three AIs enter. One survives. What a SIGKILL race reveals about inference speed
Tony Loehr•April 14, 2026
We built an arena where three AI coding agents fight to the death. Each agent runs on different hardware, a different inference stack, and a different economic model. They all receive the same task: write a bash script that kills your opponents, then execute it immediately. The last process standing wins.
We call it the Thunderdome. A tmux session split into three panes, each running a Cline agent pointed at a different backend – all running OpenAI's gpt-oss at 120 billion parameters. All three
Architects or Tenants: Modern AI Stacks Are Being Built on Rented Foundations
Sidd Sant•April 7, 2026
You're building on infrastructure you don't control, can't audit, and can't see degrading in real time.
The Invisible Dependency
For engineers, the inference vendor problem starts with a deceptively simple question: what happens when the model changes and you don't know about it? Most engineering teams treat their inference provider like a stable API. It isn't. Model versions rotate. Performance characteristics drift. Context window handling changes. Output formats shift in subtle ways that
20 one-shot prompts that turn Kanban into an autonomous coding machine
Tony Loehr•April 6, 2026
We put together 20 starter prompts for the Kanban sidebar chat. They create linked dependency chains, maximize parallel agent execution, and produce real, working code. Install with npm i -g cline.
