Gemini 3 Pro gives Cline more headroom for long-running coding
Gemini 3 Pro extends what Cline can attempt as an autonomous coding agent while keeping you in control.

After weeks with GPT-5.1, we discovered it's unlike any coding model we've seen. It investigates obsessively, follows structure religiously, and sustains focus across massive tasks. We adapted Cline to channel these traits into stable, long-running execution.
GPT-5.1 ships with Cline-optimized prompting. Plus Nous Research's Hermes 4 models, Avalon speech-to-text with Linux support, and critical bug fixes.
Hooks let you inject custom scripts at key workflow moments to validate operations, monitor usage, and shape AI decisions. Currently supported on macOS and Linux.
GitHub's Octoverse 2025 report just crowned Cline the fastest-growing AI open source project by contributors, with 4,704% year-over-year growth.
Smarter Tools, Sharper Edges The rise of intelligent, tool-enabled coding agents marks a turning point in how software is written. Agents that reason, call tools, commit code, assist in pull requests, and navigate workflows are no longer futuristic; they’re a part of daily life for forward-looking engineers. At Cline,
Native tool calling reduces errors and enables parallel execution. Auto-approve menu redesigned for better workflow. MiniMax M2 brings continuous reasoning, free until November 7.
Open source models can rival the best—if we give them the ground to stand on.
The model-agnostic, IDE-agnostic, inference-agnostic, open-source coding agent that 3 million developers trust—now with enterprise security, governance, and observability at scale.
Cline CLI Preview is available. After months of work, Cline is now a standalone service powered by Cline Core, exposing a gRPC API for scriptable automation, multi-instance orchestration, and building custom interfaces. The agent loop that works anywhere.
The Cline CLI (Preview) completes our vision of full agnosticism. One agent loop, Cline Core, that can run on any model, any surface, and any inference. The primitive for AI coding that enables everyone to build their own interfaces. Now available for Linux and macOS.
Analysis of Plan/Act model usage patterns from the last 7 days
Updates
Cline’s real-world telemetry shows Sonnet 4.5 at 96.2% and GLM-4.6 at 94.9% diff-edit success. The open-source gap is down to basis points. Try both in Cline.
Guides
After extensive testing, AMD found only specific models work reliably with Cline. Here's your complete guide to choosing the right model for your RAM.
Models
Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet 4.5 is now in Cline, bringing 200k context, test-first workflows, and autonomous docs — built for real software development.
Models
The stealth model gets 5x more context. Code-supernova now handles 1 million tokens.
Guides
If you're typing the same instructions to your agent every week, you're the process. Write them once as a markdown workflow, invoke with a slash command, and watch the agent execute with verification.
Updates
In v3.31, we're making Cline feel more natural to interact with. Three features that reduce the friction between what you want to build and getting it built.
Models
OpenAI's GPT-5-Codex, optimized for coding agents, is now available in Cline with adaptive reasoning that uses 93% fewer tokens on simple tasks and 2x more on complex ones.
Comparisons
Explore open-source, affordable Claude Code alternatives with local model support, no usage limits, and seamless VS Code compatibility for true agentic coding.
