Cline

“the agent would make changes even when their plan mode was enabled”

“I've used the zai subscription, opencode go und cline-pass in the last few months and would recommend the latter.”

“At the start of the session it reads the plan.md. during compaction, it forgets it.”

“cline and opencode provide usage based access and subscriptions for general API access”

“Even agentic harnesses like Cline should move at a reasonable clip on m5 ultra.”

“I usually use Cline but I'm giving up on it for this exact reason”

“past a certain point the context window gets cluttered and it starts trying to redo tasks it has already completed”

“Cline Pass ($10/mo) provide 2x to 6x usage for some of the popular open weights”

“I switched to yearly Cline pass because it was too cheap haha”

“this is the best way to leverage and have a good experience on open weight models with transparency”

“super cool to have access to a bundle of models with great value”

“I've used Cline for a year now and very happy with it. Fits my workflow really well”

“Way faster than before, easy to correct mistakes, doesn't require self-sacrifice or submission.”

“I got a freecad API script for a catfood colander / dust sieve out of gemini / cline in a single prompt”

“My favorite solution to this is to use the Cline coding agent, which is open and allows you to easily switch between different providers and models.”

“I created this document on some of the problems with Cline and Claude code etc.”

“it allows me to gas-and-brake the AI and review what it's doing on a granular level”

“Cline released their Kanban solution to dish out tasks to agents”

“a vscode plugin that's been around since the start and has really active development”

“Kilo/Roo/Cline all have major implementation issues with token utilization”

“It scratches the itch very well for me for literal pennies on the dollar.”

“Really nice way to budget token spend on a task-by-task basis and your flow isn't interrupted by limits.”

“appears to be right at the edge of productivity, as long as you realize what complexity means when issuing tasks”

“found Cline/RooCode/KiloCode in VSC to be pretty good, while letting me preserve my existing setup”

“i can get an app one shotted pretty much every time i use cline too”

“Like I say to Roo Code/Cline on VSCode: Write a python script to output hello world.”

“the results end up being infinitely better than the "yolo" mode outcomes”

“We saw this play out beautifully with amp, kilo, roo, cline, continue”

“Cline's harness can interact with my website and click on stuff until the bugs are gone.”

“Several of the open source agents will out perform copilot regularly (try aider, open code or cline if you can).”

“the deafening crickets from this post led me to discover a valuable use case for Cline”

“its workflow feels right even though they're all almost the same interface”

“allows you to use your own API key, so you pay per-token, not a fixed monthly fee”

“so many OSS tools available that work surprisingly well (cline, opencode, etc.)”

“KiloCode/RooCode/Cline in VSC which are nice, but might miss out on some more specific tools”

“Familiarize yourself with some of the different tool options out their (Claude Code, Cline, even the new Mistral Vibe)”

“KiloCode/RooCode/Cline are unable to give a model enough helpful instructions”

“I refactored a complicated code base, built exhaustive tests for a CLI app and I've been maintaining and building out several k8s clusters out of a mono repo using Cline + grok-code-fast-1 and it's been a breeze.”

“I had a lot of issues with Qwen models when it comes to RooCode/Cline”

“I've been having good results with Roo Code/Cline + Claude Code as the provider”
