Cline CLI 3.0.73 fixes GPT-6 requests on OpenAI and Azure endpoints and restores Claude Sonnet 5.5 as the default
Cline published this on Oct 17, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline CLI v3.0.73 makes GPT-6 models such as gpt-6-sol and gpt-6.1-sol work on OpenAI and Azure OpenAI-compatible endpoints; before, every request was rejected because Cline sent max_tokens instead of max_completion_tokens. With no model chosen, the Cline provider again uses Claude Sonnet 5.5, which is back at the top of Cline's recommended list. The release also refreshes the model catalog, adds the CommandCode and Reflection providers, and changes default models for providers including 302.AI, CoreWeave, Pioneer and Scaleway.

Cline Desktop v0.0.47 fixes marketplace plugins, retries interrupted responses and makes Gemini 4 Argon the default Cline model
Cline published this on Oct 16, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline Desktop v0.0.47 fixes marketplace plugins such as goal, which failed to load in 0.0.46 because the packaged app was missing the SDK packages they import. When a provider error cuts off a response mid-stream, Cline now retries up to three times before failing the turn, and the Cloud sessions toggle is removed, so cloud sessions are on wherever available. The Cline provider now defaults to Gemini 4 Argon, and the refreshed catalog adds the Boundless and Standard Compute providers, drops Grok 4.7 from the recommended list and swaps Step 5 Preview for Nemotron 3.5 Super VL on the free list.

Cline SDK 0.0.94 removes in-process plugins, running them only in worker threads or a subprocess sandbox
Cline published this on Oct 15, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline SDK 0.0.94 now runs plugins only in worker threads, the default (CLINE_PLUGIN_MODE=worker), or in a subprocess sandbox. The in_process mode and its silent fallback are removed, so a host that ships no plugin-sandbox-bootstrap.js now fails every plugin load with a PluginBootstrapMissingError naming CLINE_PLUGIN_BOOTSTRAP_PATH instead of quietly running plugins inside the hub.

Cline CLI 3.0.71 loads plugins inside the hub, so plugins no longer need a separate JavaScript runtime
Cline published this on Oct 13, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline CLI v3.0.71 runs plugins inside the hub instead of a separate node or bun process, and plugins that fail to load now raise a warning and appear in a new `cline hub plugins` status view instead of silently losing their tools. The --thinking flag now works in ACP mode, provider API keys set as environment variables count as configured at startup, and the Cline provider defaults to Claude Sonnet 5.5 when no model is chosen. The release also fixes queued scheduled runs that stayed pending, loads symlinked rule files, discovers skills in .claude/skills, and adds the AI/ML API, LowRouter and Prime Inference providers.

Cline published this on Oct 13, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline Desktop v0.0.46 adds an outline along the left edge of a conversation that lists each prompt, with hover previews and click-to-jump. Plugins that fail to load now show a status line naming the plugin and the error instead of silently losing their tools. Scheduled routines now start queued runs, mark failed model calls as failed, and run only the latest missed occurrence after downtime. With no model chosen, the Cline provider now uses Claude Sonnet 5.5, and the release adds the AI/ML API, LowRouter and Prime Inference providers.

Cline Desktop v0.0.45 restores SSH remotes, adds Claude Haiku 5.5 to the catalog, and fixes reasoning-off errors
Cline published this on Oct 8, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline Desktop v0.0.45 fixes SSH remote startup broken since 0.0.38, slows SSH git-branch polling to every 30 seconds, shows long model names when space allows, and stops a 400 error when turning reasoning off on GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol, Claude Fable 5 or Claude Opus 5.5. It also refreshes the model catalog with Claude Haiku 5.5 and changes several provider defaults to Haiku 5.5.

Cline 4.1.23 refreshes its model catalog: GPT-6.1 Sol joins the recommended list, Solar Mini 4 joins the free list, and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and space-bunny-alpha leave it. When a model's response ends without a recognized finish reason, Cline now asks it to continue once instead of treating it as complete.

Cline Desktop v0.0.42 adds /compact and reworks the connectors catalog
Cline release published this on Oct 2, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline shipped Desktop v0.0.42 with a new /compact slash command that summarizes the conversation to free up context, using the session's own provider settings rather than sending it as a prompt. Connectors is now the default tab in Customize, with a searchable two-column catalog that works without the Marketplace, and brand logos across both views. The tab also explains itself when connectors are unavailable, showing a sign-in prompt or a beta rollout notice with a check-again option.

Cline Desktop v0.0.40 fixes custom providers and adds chat memory
Cline release published this on Sep 30, 2026 (source: github.com).
Cline shipped Desktop v0.0.40, fixing custom providers added via "Add Provider" failing with "Unknown or disabled provider" at task time. New chats now remember your last Cloud or Local pick and the chosen Cloud model instead of reverting to Local. Saving provider credentials no longer fails when the model list can't be fetched, and MCP settings now honor one consistent path when CLINE_MCP_SETTINGS_PATH or related env vars are set. Long MCP tool outputs past the context limit hand the agent a preview plus a link to page through the rest, so nothing is lost. The release also adds GPT-6.1 Sol to the recommended model list and refreshes defaults for 302.AI, NanoGPT, Vivgrid and Vultr.
