The Open Coding Agent·cline.bot

Visit

Cline is an open-source AI coding agent that lives in a developer's editor and terminal. It can read and write files, run terminal commands, use a browser, and help build features through natural conversation, with every action requiring explicit user approval. It supports Plan/Act modes, the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for extensibility, and works with multiple AI model providers including Claude, GPT, Gemini, and local models. It is available as a VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, CLI tool, and SDK for building custom agents.

What it's for

Understand a codebase and ask questions about files, dependencies, and behaviorRefactor large codebases with coordinated multi-file changesAutomate recurring checks, updates, and workflows via CLI in scripts, cron jobs, and CI pipelinesRun bash/terminal commands and react to live outputCoordinate multi-agent teams with specialist agents on schedulesChat with the agent from Slack, Discord, Telegram, or LinearRun headlessly inside GitHub Actions, GitLab, or other CI/CD pipelinesBuild custom AI agents and integrations via the SDK
