excited to share cline kanban!
it's *incredible* seeing how the models can break down, parallelize, and link tasks in clever ways to get work done quicker than you ever could staring at a single terminal.

- Seriously blown away by Moonshot's new Kimi K2 model in @cline. It beats Claude Opus 4 on coding benchmarks and is up to 90% cheaper. It was clearly built to excel at plan -> act, iteratively improve code, and complex tool use instructions all making it the perfect match for how
- I’m excited to announce a $32M raise for @cline (Seed + A), led by @emergencecap & @PaceCap. Cline started as a hackathon project a year ago, and is now a community of 2.7M developers who value the power and transparency that come from bold decisions in how we build the product:
- Claude Code’s last update now auto-compacts more aggressively, using less of the context window to reduce costs. Users are also reporting stricter rate-limits, all of a sudden getting cooldown periods of 4 days. Anthropic dug themselves a grave getting everyone to sign up for
- Claude Dev can now use a browser 🚀 v1.9.0 adds a new inspect_site tool that lets him capture screenshots + console logs of any url (eg localhost!), giving him more autonomy to debugging web projects on his own.
00:00 - Cline v3.2 has a new Plan/Act toggle 🚀 Plan mode turns Cline into an architect that gathers information, asks clarifying questions, and designs a solution for you to review. Switch back to Act mode to let him execute the plan! This gives you a chance to flush out task details
00:00 - Cline now uses Anthropic's new "Computer Use" feature to launch a browser, click, type, and scroll. This gives him more autonomy in runtime debugging, end-to-end testing, and even general web use!
00:00 - Cline can now create and add tools to himself using MCP! Try asking him to “add a tool that pulls the latest npm docs” - Cline handles everything from creating the MCP server to installing it *into himself*, ready for future tasks. Servers are saved in ~/Documents/Cline/MCP so
00:00 - Cline v3.1 now saves checkpoints 🚀 The extension takes a snapshot of your workspace after each step, so you can easily restore to a previous point in the task. You now also see an overview of all the changes Cline makes when a task is completed, keeping you in the loop when
00:00 - Cline v3.4 is out 🚀 Introducing MCP Marketplace! Discover and install the best MCP servers right in the extension, where Cline handles all the setup. We’ve also added mermaid diagrams to Plan mode, new @terminal and @git mentions in chat, and visual improvements to
00:00 - Introducing Cline (formerly Claude Dev), an AI assistant that can use your CLI aNd Editor. v2.0 brings exciting updates: responses are now streamed into your editor, a cancel button for better control over tasks, a new XML-based tool calling prompt resulting in ~40% fewer
00:00 - Excited to share Cline v3 🎉 You can now auto-approve all actions, limit max # of API requests, and get desktop notifications for when a task is completed! Cline now also uses a flexible diff edit format when working on large files for faster, more reliable edits (no more "//
- Seeing devs blindsided by Cursor’s new usage pricing reminds me why we built @cline with API cost visibility + BYOK from the start. No hidden price-optimized multi-model orchestration, no throttled context, just use the best model at true cost and push it as far as you want.
- Cline for CLI is here 🚀 `npm i -g cline` open source and scriptable for you to build ontop of -> Slack bots, GitHub actions, or even have VSCode Cline use it as subagents. This is the first step to bringing Cline everywhere you work.
