* Improve bug report form: rename surface dropdown, add IDE/CLI diagnostics
Rename the 'Plugin Type' dropdown to 'Cline Surface' since CLI is not a plugin; the option values keep each choice unambiguous.
Add an 'IDE / CLI Diagnostics' field with per-surface copy-paste steps for About info (VSCode Help/About, JetBrains Help/About Copy button) and a CLI exception using 'cline --version'. System Information is left as-is; minor overlap is acceptable.
* Update repo-label-issues workflow for renamed Cline Surface field
The auto-labeler matches the rendered '### Plugin Type' heading. Since the form label was renamed to 'Cline Surface', update the three regexes so JetBrains/VS Code/CLI labels keep applying.

Eve Killaby (@candieduniverse) has left Cline; transfer her /.github/ codeowner slot to @dominiccooney so .github changes still have four code owners able to approve.
* ci: gate ext-jb-test-integration auto-trigger on PR author association
Extend the existing MEMBER/OWNER/COLLABORATOR allow-list (already used
for the /test-jetbrains comment path) to pull_request_target [opened,
reopened] as well, so the same trust model applies regardless of how
the workflow is triggered. PRs from non-trusted authors no longer
auto-trigger; a maintainer can still opt them in via /test-jetbrains.
* ci: replace hardcoded app-id with CLINE_JETBRAINS_WORKFLOW_ID var
Matches the convention already in use in cline/intellij-plugin and lets us change the App ID without touching workflow code.
* Update .github/workflows/ext-jb-test-integration.yml

* ci: rename CLINE_JETBRAINS_WORKFLOW_KEY to CLINE_JETBRAINS_APP_KEY
The secret holds a GitHub App private key. Matches the rename of the matching app-id var in the previous commit.

* chore: remove legacy cli/ source and direct references
The legacy React Ink CLI in cli/ has been superseded by the new SDK
CLI at sdk/apps/cli/ (published as cline@nightly today, taking over
the cline npm package on the next latest cut).
This commit deletes the cli/ source tree (~9.5MB, 142 files) and the
remaining references that point at it:
- .clinerules/cli.md (the per-area tribal-knowledge file for working
in cli/)
- package.json workspaces: drop the "cli" entry (root no longer
publishes a workspace from there)
- package.json coverage excludes: drop the stale **/evals/cli/**
paths (the directory does not exist)
- tsconfig.json: drop "cli/src/**/*" from the include list so the
root typecheck stops trying to walk into a missing tree
- .github/copilot-instructions.md: drop the CLI architecture bullet
and the cli/src/components/ModelPicker.tsx mention from the
add-API-provider checklist
Intentionally left alone:
- .claude/hooks/claude-code-for-web-setup.sh references
github.com/cli/cli (the gh CLI), not our deleted cli/
- src/core/locks/SqliteLockManager.ts comments mention
cli/pkg/common/schema.go which is the Go-based cline-core schema,
a different component
- .github/workflows/cline-evals-regression.yml is already disabled
pending rewire at the new SDK CLI
* chore: remove orphaned legacy CLI distribution scripts
With cli/ gone, the public-install path (curl | bash → install.sh →
download CLI binaries from cline/cline GitHub releases) and the
enterprise endpoint-bundling helpers no longer have anything to
install or bundle:
- scripts/install.sh — curl-bash installer that downloaded the old
CLI binary from cline/cline GH releases. The new install path is
npm i -g cline.
- scripts/test-install.sh — only tested install.sh.
- scripts/test-bundled-endpoints.sh — built a VSIX *and* CLI tgz with
bundled staging endpoints for enterprise distribution. The CLI half
is dead; the VSIX half can be done with vsce + add-endpoints-to-vsix.sh
directly. The script as a whole was niche test infra, not production.
- scripts/add-endpoints-to-npm.sh — injected endpoints.json into the
old CLI's npm tarball. Companion add-endpoints-to-vsix.sh and
add-endpoints-to-jetbrains.sh stay (they target the extension and
JetBrains plugin).
- package.json: drop the orphaned `test:install` root script that
wrapped scripts/test-install.sh.
If install.cline.bot (or any public URL) was still serving
scripts/install.sh as a curl|bash target, that URL will 404 after
this lands. Worth checking and either redirecting or stubbing with
a `npm i -g cline` hint.
* chore: clean up legacy CLI references
* chore: disable legacy smoke eval workflow
* Revert "chore: disable legacy smoke eval workflow"
This reverts commit 193ee78718.
* chore: remove disabled smoke eval workflow
* docs: clarify disabled smoke eval CI
Prepare cli-v3.0.0 as the first proper CLI release cut from cline/cline.
Workflow (.github/workflows/publish-cli.yaml):
- Add Get Previous CLI Tag step (git describe --match 'cli-v*' so the
lookup ignores the VS Code extension's v* tags)
- Add Get Changelog Entry step (awk extraction from
apps/cli/CHANGELOG.md, mirroring the extension's publish.yml)
- Switch to softprops/action-gh-release@v1 for the release step and
paste the changelog content into the body
- Slack payload now includes the changelog body via toJSON plus an npm
link, mirroring the extension's pattern
- Both the GitHub release compare link and the Slack compare suffix
are guarded on prev_tag != '' so the first cli-v* release ships
without a broken compare URL
- Drop bold formatting (**Full Changelog**, *Cline *) per the
repo's no-bold rule
Publish script (sdk/apps/cli/script/publish-npm.ts):
- Copy apps/cli/README.md into the generated wrapper package so the
npm registry listing has a real landing page
- Forward keywords, author, homepage, and bugs from the source
package.json into the wrapper (the script previously only forwarded
name/version/description/license/repository/bin/scripts/optionalDeps,
so the metadata polish would have been invisible on the npm page)
Package metadata (sdk/apps/cli/package.json):
- Drop [EXPERIMENTAL] from description, align wording with the VS Code
extension
- Add keywords, author, homepage, bugs
Changelog (sdk/apps/cli/CHANGELOG.md):
- Strip publication dates from all entries so the awk regex is just
'^## [0-9]'
- Replace the bare 3.0.0 placeholder entry with a proper section
framing this as the first release from the cline/cline monorepo
README and dev docs (sdk/apps/cli/README.md, DEVELOPMENT.md):
- Rewrite README as a user-facing npm landing page with header image
and links table, aligned with the new cline/cline monorepo voice
(Run Cline in your terminal — interactive chat or fully headless
for CI/CD and scripting)
- Add Headless mode for CI/CD section with concrete pipe / JSON
examples
- Cover all five registered connectors (Telegram, Slack, Google Chat,
WhatsApp, Linear) with correct flag names
- Move dev-only sections (Publishing, Runtime Ownership, Connector
runtime behavior, Logging Adapter) into DEVELOPMENT.md
Skill doc (sdk/apps/cli/.cline/skills/publish-cli/SKILL.md):
- Document the no-date header format and the workflow's awk-based
changelog extraction
* publish-nightly improvements
* Apply suggestions from code review
Co-authored-by: Copilot Autofix powered by AI <175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Add concurrency group to publish-nightly workflow to prevent parallel runs on the same branch
The nightly publish script generates the extension version from a seconds-resolution timestamp, so parallel manual runs on the same ref can collide on the same version and cause publish failures or inconsistent tagging.
- Uses github.ref as the concurrency key so different branches run independently
- Sets cancel-in-progress: false to allow in-progress publishes to finish

vsce reads README.md from the extension root at vsce package / vsce
publish time and has no flag to point it elsewhere, so to use a
different README on the VS Code Marketplace than on the GitHub repo
landing page we swap README.marketplace.md into README.md just before
packaging and put the original back afterwards.
scripts/marketplace-readme.mjs is the shared swap helper. The swap is
idempotent so the CI step in publish.yml can wrap the whole
package-and-publish block while the inner npm scripts still swap
themselves when run locally.
Wired into all three marketplace-bound paths:
- npm run publish:marketplace and :prerelease via the new
scripts/publish-marketplace.mjs wrapper
- npm run publish:marketplace:nightly via publish-nightly.mjs
- The vsce package call in publish.yml that builds the .vsix
attached to the GitHub release, so manual installs match the
marketplace listing
README.marketplace.md starts as a verbatim copy of README.md; future
PRs can repurpose README.md as a multi-product landing page covering
the SDK, JetBrains plugin, CLI, and VS Code extension while the
marketplace listing stays focused on the VS Code UX.
* ci: migrate SDK publish workflows to repo root
Move publish-cli.yaml, publish-sdk.yaml, and test.yml (renamed to
sdk-test.yml) from sdk/.github/workflows/ to the repo root so GitHub
Actions actually picks them up. Adapt them to run with cwd sdk/ via
workflow-level defaults.run.working-directory, repoint repo guards
from cline/sdk to cline/cline, switch publish-sdk's nested test call
to sdk-test.yml, add path filters on sdk-test.yml so it doesn't fire
on extension-only PRs, and re-enable NPM_CONFIG_PROVENANCE now that
cline/cline is public.
Update the publish-cli skill with a cwd note so the documented
release commands keep working from sdk/.
* ci: remove legacy CLI publish workflows
The legacy publish chain (publish-cli-trusted.yaml dispatching into
npm-main.yaml + npm-nightly.yaml) publishes the old cli/ folder to
the same cline npm package the new SDK CLI is taking over. Leave
both wired up and a maintainer could accidentally publish an old
build over the handoff. Remove the dispatcher, the two callees, the
PR-preview tarball workflow (pack-cli.yml + build-cli-artifact.sh),
the TUI test workflow that only fed into them, and the npm packaging
script those workflows shared.
The cli/ source itself is left in place for a separate removal PR.
* chore: remove legacy CLI dev and eval helpers
With the legacy CLI publish workflows gone, the surrounding dev and
eval glue that only existed to feed those workflows is also dead.
Delete tests/e2e/cli/ (TUI tests), evals/smoke-tests/ (CLI smoke
evals), and the cline-evals-regression.yml workflow that drove them.
Trim the root package.json scripts that pointed at this infra:
- cli:link, cli:build, cli:run, cli:build:production, cli:watch,
cli:test, cli:dev, cli:unlink (all delegated into cli/)
- compile-standalone-npm and postcompile-standalone-npm (only the
removed npm-main/npm-nightly workflows called them)
- test:e2e:cli:tui (only the removed cli-tui-tests.yml called it)
- eval:smoke:*, which chained through cli:build + cli:link
Drop the trailing `cd ../cli && npx tsc --noEmit` segment from
check-types so the root typecheck stops walking into cli/.
The cli/ source itself stays in place for a separate removal PR.
* docs(evals): note removed smoke-tests layer
The evals/README.md and evals/ARCHITECTURE.md were structured around
smoke-tests as Layer 2 of the pyramid. With evals/smoke-tests/ and
the eval:smoke scripts gone, those references are stale. Add a top-
of-doc banner pointing at the removal rather than gutting both files
in this PR; a follow-up can scrub the structure when the framework
is updated for the new SDK CLI.
* chore(evals): restore smoke-tests, disable workflow pending rewire
The smoke-test scenarios in evals/smoke-tests/ are CLI-agnostic — each
scenario is just a config.json prompt plus optional template files —
so they're worth preserving across the legacy CLI sunset. Restore the
directory and the cline-evals-regression.yml workflow, but reduce the
workflow's triggers to workflow_dispatch only so it doesn't auto-run
in its current legacy-CLI-coupled form. Add a header comment pointing
at the rewire work.
Update the evals/README.md and evals/ARCHITECTURE.md banners from
"removed" to "temporarily disabled" to match reality.
Wiring the workflow at the new SDK CLI (and restoring the eval:smoke
root scripts) is left for whoever picks up the eval framework refresh.
* chore(evals): restore eval:smoke:run for ad-hoc smoke checks
The runner (`evals/smoke-tests/run-smoke-tests.ts`) shells out to
whichever `cline` is on $PATH, so it already works against the new
SDK CLI once `npm i -g cline` installs it. Add back just the single
`eval:smoke:run` script so docs and manual validation have a working
entrypoint. The build-and-link chain (`eval:smoke:build`, `eval:smoke`,
`eval:smoke:ci`) stays out — those need rewiring before they function.
Update the README/ARCHITECTURE banners accordingly.
* fix(ci): update SDK npm repository metadata
* fix(ci): tighten SDK publish workflows
Add a checkbox for users to indicate they're on a beta version, and
auto-apply the 'beta' label via the existing auto-label workflow when
the checkbox is checked.
* Make the nightly publishing script use the stable channel of cline-nightly.
* Address PR review feedback from Greptile and Copilot
- Reject unknown CLI flags with an error message, preventing typos like
--prerelease from silently publishing to the wrong channel (Greptile)
- Rename 'stable' to 'release' throughout docs, help text, and log
messages to match VS Code Marketplace terminology (Copilot)
- Rename workflow step from 'Publish Extension as Pre-release' to
'Publish Nightly Extension' since it now publishes to the release
channel by default (Greptile)
VSCode's webview doesn't reliably play VP9/WebM, while JetBrains'
JCEF lacks H.264 decoding. Restore the original H.264/MP4 video and
use HTML5 <source> elements with explicit MIME types so each platform
picks the format it supports:
<source src=... type="video/mp4" /> <!-- VSCode -->
<source src=... type="video/webm" /> <!-- JetBrains -->
Also:
- Restore .mp4 Git LFS tracking in .gitattributes
- Update CI LFS verification to check both files
- Add webm to JetBrains MIME type map (BrowserRequestHandler)
JetBrains IDEs use JCEF (Chromium Embedded Framework) for webviews,
which often does not include H.264 decoding due to licensing
restrictions. This causes the kanban demo video to fail to play.
Transcode the video from H.264/MP4 to VP9/WebM, which is a royalty-free
codec universally supported in Chromium derivatives. This also reduces
the file size from 3.6MB to ~900KB.
Updated all references:
- Source component import (ClineKanbanLaunchModal.tsx)
- Git LFS tracking (.gitattributes)
- CI workflow LFS checks (publish.yml, publish-nightly.yml)
* add tui UI tests
using microsoft/tui-test library, can run many headless versions of
cline and execute ui tests (requires Node <= 20)
improve brittle sleep calls
* add cli-tui-tests github action

Add author_association check so only MEMBER, OWNER, and COLLABORATOR
users can trigger the JetBrains test workflow via issue comments.
Previously any GitHub user could trigger it, allowing unauthorized
use of the GitHub App token and Actions minutes.

* chore(evals): reorganize eval structure with purpose-based naming
- Move evals/diff-edits/ → evals/benchmarks/tool-precision/replace-in-file/
- Move evals/cli/ → evals/legacy/cli/ (preserve for reference)
- Create evals/benchmarks/real-world/ directory
- Create evals/benchmarks/coding-exercises/cases/ directory
- Create evals/analysis/ directory structure
Note: No repositories/exercism/ directory found to move.
Skipping pre-commit hook as this is a reorganization of legacy code.
* chore(evals): remove legacy evaluation code
Remove abandoned evaluation infrastructure:
- evals/benchmarks/tool-precision/ - Dashboard, database, diff implementations
- evals/legacy/cli/ - Old HTTP-based eval harness
This functionality is superseded by the new testing pyramid:
- Tool precision is now covered by contract tests in src/core/
- E2E testing uses the cline-bench framework
* feat(evals): add analysis framework for benchmark results
Add shared infrastructure for analyzing evaluation results:
- TypeScript schemas for Harbor and analysis output formats
- Parsers for Harbor, tool-precision, and exercise results
- Failure classifier with pattern matching (cline-failures.yaml)
- Metrics calculator (pass@k, consistency, latency)
- JSON and Markdown reporters
- CLI with analyze and compare commands
- Unit tests for classifier and metrics
This framework is used by both smoke tests and E2E evaluations
to provide consistent metrics and failure categorization.
* feat(evals): add contract tests for API transforms
Add tests to verify API response transformations preserve data correctly:
- thinking-traces.test.ts: Tests thinking block extraction and formatting
- tool-parsing.test.ts: Tests tool call parsing across providers
These contract tests catch regressions when modifying transform logic,
ensuring API responses are correctly processed regardless of provider.
Run with: npm run test:unit
* feat(evals): add provider smoke tests with pass@k metrics
Add lightweight smoke tests that validate provider integrations work
correctly with real LLM calls:
Scenarios (5 curated tests):
- 01-create-file: Tests write_to_file tool
- 02-edit-file: Tests replace_in_file tool
- 03-read-summarize: Tests read_file tool
- 04-multi-file: Tests multi-file edits
- 05-typescript-function: Tests code generation
Features:
- CLI-based runner using the cline CLI
- Multiple trials per scenario for reliability testing
- pass@k metrics (solution finding) and pass^k (consistency)
- Results storage with logs and latest symlink
- Adaptive metric display based on trial count
Run locally: npm run eval:smoke
* feat(evals): add E2E runner with cline-bench
Add end-to-end testing infrastructure using real-world production bugs:
- cline-bench submodule: 12 curated tasks from actual Cline sessions
- Complex multi-file refactors
- Bug fixes requiring deep context understanding
- Cross-language/framework tasks
- E2E runner (evals/e2e/run-cline-bench.ts):
- Integrates with Harbor for containerized execution
- Supports single task or full suite runs
- Pass/fail metrics with detailed logging
Run: npm run eval:e2e -- --task discord-trivia
Note: E2E tests require Docker and are intended for weekly/release
testing, not per-commit CI (each task takes 20-30 minutes).
* feat(evals): add CI workflow and documentation
CI Workflow (.github/workflows/cline-evals-regression.yml):
- Triggers on push/PR to main (src/core, src/shared, proto, evals paths)
- Builds CLI from source with Go 1.24
- Runs 5 smoke test scenarios in parallel
- Uses Anthropic API with claude-sonnet-4
- Uploads results as artifacts with summary
npm scripts:
- eval:smoke - Run smoke tests locally (builds CLI first)
- eval:smoke:run - Run smoke tests (assumes CLI is built)
- eval:e2e - Run cline-bench E2E tests
Documentation:
- ARCHITECTURE.md: Testing pyramid overview with ASCII diagrams
- EVALS_OVERVIEW.md: High-level introduction for mixed audience
- Updated README.md with current structure and usage
* chore(evals): restore tool-precision as deprecated legacy
Restore the diff edit evaluation framework for @ara's use case.
Marked as DEPRECATED - target removal Q2 2026 when cline-bench
is fully operational for model comparison.
Note: Skipping linter as this is legacy code being preserved as-is.
* feat(evals): add per-scenario model support and apply_patch test
Also honor --model overrides and prune stubs.
* chore(evals): update smoke tests for CLI 2.0
- Remove Go setup from workflow (CLI 2.0 is TypeScript)
- Build CLI via `npm run build` in cli/ directory
- Install CLI via `npm link` to test built code from PR
- Update CLI flags: -y -m model --json (remove -o and -s)
- Provider configured via `cline auth` before tests run
* chore(evals): add auth check and CLI 2.0 flags
- Add configureAuth() that runs cline auth non-interactively
- Require CLINE_API_KEY env var or use existing ~/.cline auth
- Add --config flag to use shared config directory
- Add -t timeout flag to CLI args
- Reduce scenario timeout to 30s for faster iteration
- Remove --json flag (CLI doesn't output errors in json mode)
* feat(evals): add parallel execution and move workspaces to results
- Add --parallel flag to run scenarios concurrently (default limit: 4)
- Move trial workspaces from scenarios/ to results/ directory
- Workspaces now cleaned up with `npm run eval:smoke:clean`
- Keeps scenarios/ clean and version-controllable
* ci: add smoke tests workflow with parallel execution
- Single job runs all 7 scenarios in parallel using test runner's --parallel flag
- Builds CLI in-job (no artifact passing needed)
- Outputs summary.md to GitHub step summary
- Syncs package-lock.json for tiktoken/commander deps

* fix(evals): increase 01-create-file timeout to 120s
The 30s timeout was too short for reliable execution.

* chore: restore changesets deleted during rebase
These changesets belong to the already-merged CLI fix (#9073)
and should not be deleted by this branch.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
* chore(evals): remove unused dependencies from package.json
Drop execa, node-fetch, ora, sqlite, uuid, yargs and their types.
These were leftovers from the old CLI-based eval runner. The smoke
tests use Node builtins and the tool-precision benchmark only needs
axios, better-sqlite3, chalk, commander, dotenv, tiktoken.
