 ## Step 1: Gather Git Information
 <important>Do not return any text or conversation other than what is necessary to run these commands</important>
 
-**First, check the expected output size:**
-   ```shell
-   (git branch --show-current && echo "=== STATUS ===" && git status --porcelain | cat && echo "=== COMMIT MESSAGES ===" && git log main..HEAD --oneline | cat && echo "=== CHANGED FILES ===" && git diff main --name-only | cat && echo "=== FULL DIFF ===" && git diff main | cat) | wc -l
-   ```
+**Run the following command to get the latest changes (bash):**
+```bash
+B=$(for c in main master origin/main origin/master; do git rev-parse --verify -q "$c" >/dev/null && echo "$c" && break; done); B=${B:-HEAD}; r(){ git branch --show-current; printf "=== STATUS ===\n"; git status --porcelain | cat; printf "=== COMMIT MESSAGES ===\n"; git log "$B"..HEAD --oneline | cat; printf "=== CHANGED FILES ===\n"; git diff "$B" --name-only | cat; printf "=== FULL DIFF ===\n"; git diff "$B" | cat; }; L=$(r | wc -l); if [ "$L" -gt 500 ]; then r > cline-git-analysis.temp && echo "::OUTPUT_FILE=cline-git-analysis.temp"; else r; fi
+```
 
-**If the expected line count is greater than 500 lines, use the file-based approach:**
-   ```shell
-   git branch --show-current > cline-git-analysis.temp && echo "=== STATUS ===" >> cline-git-analysis.temp && git status --porcelain >> cline-git-analysis.temp && echo "=== COMMIT MESSAGES ===" >> cline-git-analysis.temp && git log main..HEAD --oneline >> cline-git-analysis.temp && echo "=== CHANGED FILES ===" >> cline-git-analysis.temp && git diff main --name-only >> cline-git-analysis.temp && echo "=== FULL DIFF ===" >> cline-git-analysis.temp && git diff main >> cline-git-analysis.temp
-   ```
-
-   Then, read the file using the read_file tool. After you have read the file but before you proceed with subsequent steps, delete it:
-   ```shell
-   rm cline-git-analysis.temp
-   ```
-
-**If the expected line count is 500 lines or fewer, use the direct approach:**
-   ```shell
-   git branch --show-current && echo "=== STATUS ===" && git status --porcelain | cat && echo "=== COMMIT MESSAGES ===" && git log main..HEAD --oneline | cat && echo "=== CHANGED FILES ===" && git diff main --name-only | cat && echo "=== FULL DIFF ===" && git diff main | cat
-   ```
-
-<important>If using the direct approach, pipe outputs through `cat` to avoid interactive terminals. If the user's shell is not bash/zsh, adjust the command and chaining
- syntax accordingly.</important>
+```powershell
+$B=$null;foreach($c in 'main','master','origin/main','origin/master'){git rev-parse --verify -q $c *> $null;if($LASTEXITCODE -eq 0){$B=$c;break}};if(-not $B){$B='HEAD'};function r([string]$b){git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD; '=== STATUS ==='; git status --porcelain | cat; '=== COMMIT MESSAGES ==='; git log "$b"..HEAD --oneline | cat; '=== CHANGED FILES ==='; git diff "$b" --name-only | cat; '=== FULL DIFF ==='; git diff "$b" | cat};$out=r $B|Out-String;$lines=($out -split "`r?`n").Count;if($lines -gt 500){$out|Set-Content -NoNewline cline-git-analysis.temp; '::OUTPUT_FILE=cline-git-analysis.temp'}else{$out}
+```
 
 ## Step 2: Silent, Structured Analysis Phase
 - Analyze all git output without providing commentary or narration

+Meet Cline, an AI assistant that can use your **CLI** a**N**d **E**ditor.
 
-Thanks to [Claude 3.7 Sonnet's agentic coding capabilities](https://www.anthropic.com/claude/sonnet), Cline can handle complex software development tasks step-by-step. With tools that let him create & edit files, explore large projects, use the browser, and execute terminal commands (after you grant permission), he can assist you in ways that go beyond code completion or tech support. Cline can even use the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to create new tools and extend his own capabilities. While autonomous AI scripts traditionally run in sandboxed environments, this extension provides a human-in-the-loop GUI to approve every file change and terminal command, providing a safe and accessible way to explore the potential of agentic AI.

While autonomous AI scripts traditionally run in sandboxed environments, this extension provides a human-in-the-loop GUI to approve every file change and terminal command, providing a safe and accessible way to explore the potential of agentic AI.
 
 1. Enter your task and add images to convert mockups into functional apps or fix bugs with screenshots.
 2. Cline starts by analyzing your file structure & source code ASTs, running regex searches, and reading relevant files to get up to speed in existing projects. By carefully managing what information is added to context, Cline can provide valuable assistance even for large, complex projects without overwhelming the context window.

-With Claude 3.5 Sonnet's new [Computer Use](https://www.anthropic.com/news/3-5-models-and-computer-use) capability, Cline can launch a browser, click elements, type text, and scroll, capturing screenshots and console logs at each step. This allows for interactive debugging, end-to-end testing, and even general web use! This gives him autonomy to fixing visual bugs and runtime issues without you needing to handhold and copy-pasting error logs yourself.

+title: "Automatic Context Summarization"
+sidebarTitle: "Auto Compact"
+---
+
+When your conversation approaches the model's context window limit, Cline automatically summarizes it to free up space and keep working. 
+
+<Frame>
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/condensing.png"
+		alt="Auto-compact feature condensing conversation context"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+## How It Works
+
+Cline monitors token usage during your conversation. When you're getting close to the limit, he:
+
+1. Creates a comprehensive summary of everything that's happened
+2. Preserves all the technical details, code changes, and decisions
+3. Replaces the conversation history with the summary
+4. Continues exactly where he left off
+
+You'll see a summarization tool call when this happens, showing the total cost like any other api call in the chat view.
+
+## Why This Matters
+
+Previously, Cline would truncate older messages when hitting context limits. This meant losing important context from earlier in the conversation.
+
+Now with summarization:
+- All technical decisions and code patterns are preserved
+- File changes and project context remain intact
+- Cline remembers everything he's done
+- You can work on much larger projects without interruption
+
+<Tip>
+Context Summarization synergizes beautifully with [Focus Chain](/features/focus-chain). When Focus Chain is enabled, todo lists persist across summarizations. This means Cline can work on long-horizon tasks that span multiple context windows while staying on track with the todo list guiding him through each reset.
+</Tip>
+
+## Technical Details
+
+The summarization happens through your configured API provider using the same model you're already using. It leverages prompt caching to minimize costs.
+
+1. Cline uses a [summarization prompt](https://github.com/cline/cline/blob/main/src/core/prompts/contextManagement.ts) to request a summary of the conversation.
+
+2. Once the summary is generated, Cline replaces the conversation history with a [continuation prompt](https://github.com/cline/cline/blob/main/src/core/prompts/contextManagement.ts#L69) that asks Cline to keep working and provides the summary as context.
+
+Different models have different context window thresholds for when auto-summarization kicks in. You can see how thresholds are determined in [context-window-utils.ts](https://github.com/cline/cline/blob/main/src/core/context/context-management/context-window-utils.ts). 
+
+## Cost Considerations
+
+Summarization leverages your existing prompt cache from the conversation, so it costs about the same as any other tool call.
+
+Since most input tokens are already cached, you're primarily paying for the summary generation (output tokens), making it very cost-effective.
+
+## Restoring Context with Checkpoints
+
+You can use [checkpoints](/features/checkpoints) to restore your task state from before a summarization occurred. This means you never truly lose context - you can always roll back to previous versions of your conversation. 
+
+<Note>
+  Editing a message before a summarization tool call will work similarly to a checkpoint, allowing you to restore the conversation to that point.
+</Note>
+
+## Next Generation Model Support
+
+Auto Compact uses advanced LLM-based summarization which we've found works significantly better for next-generation models. We currently support this feature for the following models:
+
+- **Claude 4 series**
+- **Gemini 2.5 series**
+- **GPT-5**
+- **Grok 4**
+
+<Note>
+When using other models, Cline automatically falls back to the standard rule-based context truncation method, even if Auto Compact is enabled in settings.

+title: "Disable Terminal Pagers During Cline Sessions"
+description: "Make CLI output non-interactive when Cline runs commands by detecting the CLINE_ACTIVE environment variable and disabling pagers like less."
+---
+
+Many CLI tools (like Git) use a pager such as `less` for interactive, scrollable output. When Cline runs commands in your terminal, that interactivity gets in the way — the pager can pause on the first page and block progress. You can configure your shell so that when a terminal is spawned by Cline, pagers are disabled and output streams through normally.
+
+## How it works
+
+Cline sets an environment variable for terminals it opens to run commands:
+
+- `CLINE_ACTIVE` — non-empty when the shell is running under Cline
+
+You can detect this variable in your shell startup file and adjust environment variables or aliases only for Cline-run sessions. This keeps your normal interactive terminals unchanged.
+
+## Quick setup (Zsh/Bash)
+
+Add the following to your `~/.zshrc`, `~/.bashrc`, or `~/.bash_profile`:
+
+```bash
+# Disable pagers when the terminal is launched by Cline
+if [[ -n "$CLINE_ACTIVE" ]]; then
+  export PAGER=cat
+  export GIT_PAGER=cat
+  export SYSTEMD_PAGER=cat
+  export LESS="-FRX"
+fi
+```
+
+<Note>
+- `PAGER=cat` ensures generic pager-aware tools print directly to stdout
+- `GIT_PAGER=cat` prevents Git from invoking `less`
+- `SYSTEMD_PAGER=cat` disables paging in systemd tools (if present)
+- `LESS="-FRX"` makes `less` behave more like streaming output if a tool still calls it
+</Note>
+
+This configuration only applies when `CLINE_ACTIVE` is set, so your normal terminals keep their usual interactive behavior.
+
+## Verify
+
+- Open a task in Cline that runs terminal commands and check:
+  - `echo "$CLINE_ACTIVE"` prints a non-empty value
+  - `git log` or other long outputs should stream without pausing
+- If changes don't take effect:
+  - Make sure you updated the correct startup file for your shell
+  - Restart VS Code/Cursor so integrated terminals reload your shell config
+  - Confirm your terminal profile sources your `~/.zshrc` or `~/.bashrc`
+
+## Optional tweaks
+
+- Prefer command-line options when you don't want to rely on env vars:
+
+```bash
+# One-off usage (no aliases)
+git --no-pager log -n 50 --decorate --oneline
+systemctl --no-pager status nginx
+journalctl --no-pager -u nginx -n 200
+less -FRX README.md
+```
+
+- You can also override paging via shell aliases scoped to Cline sessions using options rather than env vars:
+
+```bash
+if [[ -n "$CLINE_ACTIVE" ]]; then
+  # Make 'less' non-interactive by default
+  alias less='less -FRX'
+  # Disable paging for common tools via CLI flags
+  alias git='command git --no-pager'
+  alias systemctl='command systemctl --no-pager'
+  alias journalctl='command journalctl --no-pager'
+fi
+```
+
+- If you prefer environment variables, many CLIs also respect a generic or tool-specific pager variable:
+  - Git: `GIT_PAGER=cat`
+  - Systemd: `SYSTEMD_PAGER=cat`
+  - Man pages: `MANPAGER=cat` (not typically needed for Cline-driven commands)
+
+- Aliases affect the current interactive shell, while environment variables propagate to child processes. Choose the approach that best fits your workflow.

+description: "Learn how to open Cline in the right sidebar in VS Code and Cursor"
+---
+
+By default, when you first install Cline, it appears in VS Code's left sidebar alongside your file explorer and other extensions. However, for a better coding experience, we recommend moving Cline to the right sidebar. This allows you to keep your project files visible in the left sidebar while chatting with Cline on the right, giving you full visibility of your codebase as Cline works on your project.
+
+## VS Code
+
+To open Cline in the right sidebar:
+
+<Steps>
+  <Step title="Align Extension View">
+    Make sure your extension view is aligned vertically to the left
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Open Right Side View">
+    Click the button that opens the right side panel in VS Code (typically used to open GitHub Copilot chat). Optionally use the `Option + CMD/Ctrl + B` shortcut.
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Drag Cline Icon">
+    Drag the Cline icon over to the nav panel at the top of that right view

+To open Cline in the right sidebar:
+
+<Steps>
+  <Step title="Align Extensions">
+    Cursor uses a horizontal activity bar by default to optimize space for the AI chat interface ([see here for details](https://cursor.com/docs/configuration/migrations/vscode#activity-bar-orientation)). To switch to vertical:
+    
+    1. Open the Command Palette (`CMD/Ctrl + Shift + P`)
+    2. Search for "Preferences: Open Settings (UI)"
+    3. Search for `workbench.activityBar.orientation`
+    4. Set the value to `vertical`
+    5. Restart Cursor for the changes to take effect
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Open Agent Panel">
+    Click the Cursor cube icon button that opens Cursor's agent (right side view panel)
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Drag to Three Dots">
+    Drag the Cline icon directly onto the three dots button - it doesn't work if you just drag it to the top, it has to be the three dots

+description: "Communicate with Cline using your voice for faster, more natural AI collaboration"
+---
+
+Dictation transforms how you work with AI. Instead of typing out complex thoughts, you speak naturally and share your complete intent. This isn't just about speed - though voice is faster - it's about unlocking the kind of fluid collaboration that typing can't match.
+
+## Why Voice Changes Everything
+
+When you type, you edit yourself. You simplify complex ideas, skip context, and lose nuance. When you speak, you share everything on your mind - the full problem, the constraints, the edge cases you're worried about.
+
+Use Dictation constantly in [Plan mode](/features/plan-and-act) for rapid back-and-forth discussions. Instead of typing careful, structured prompts, think about a problem. Cline asks clarifying questions, respond immediately, and iterate until having a solid plan.
+
+The friction of typing was holding back real collaboration. Voice removes that friction.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+**Enable Dictation:**
+1. Go to Settings → Features → Dictation
+2. Toggle "Enable Dictation" on
+3. Sign into your Cline account when prompted
+4. Install FFmpeg if you haven't already (Cline will guide you)
+
+Once enabled, you'll see a microphone button in the chat input area.
+
+**Using Dictation:**
+- Click the microphone button to start recording
+- Speak naturally
+- Click again to stop recording
+- Wait for transcription to appear in the chat
+
+<Tip>
+Dictation works with any AI model you've configured. The transcription happens through Cline's service, but your conversation continues with whatever model you're using.
+</Tip>
+
+## System Requirements
+
+Dictation uses FFmpeg to capture your voice across all platforms:
+
+- **macOS**: FFmpeg (via Homebrew: `brew install ffmpeg`)
+- **Linux**: FFmpeg (via apt: `sudo apt-get install ffmpeg`)
+- **Windows**: FFmpeg (via winget: `winget install Gyan.FFmpeg`)
+
+If you don't have FFmpeg installed, Cline will automatically detect this and prompt you to install it with a single click.
+
+## Where Dictation Shines
+
+### Plan Mode Conversations
+
+Dictation is perfect for [Plan mode](/features/plan-and-act) discussions. Instead of carefully crafting prompts, you can:
+
+- Dictate your entire problem context in one go
+- Respond to Cline's questions immediately
+- Iterate on ideas without typing friction
+- Think out loud while Cline listens
+
+Start a planning session by speaking for 2-3 minutes straight, explaining the full context of what you're trying to build, the constraints you're working with, and the specific challenges you're facing.
+
+### Complex Problem Explanation
+
+Some problems are hard to type out. When you're dealing with:
+- Multi-step workflows with edge cases
+- Integration challenges across multiple systems  
+- Performance issues with specific reproduction steps
+- UI/UX problems that need detailed context
+
+Speaking lets you explain the full situation naturally, including all the "oh, and also..." details that matter.
+
+### Code Review and Debugging
+
+When reviewing code or explaining bugs, voice lets you walk through your thought process:
+- "This function looks fine, but I'm worried about what happens when..."
+- "The issue might be in this section, or possibly this other area..."
+- "I tried X and Y, but neither worked because..."
+
+You can share your complete debugging journey instead of just the final question.
+
+## Technical Requirements
+
+**System Requirements:**
+- FFmpeg installed on your system
+- Active internet connection
+- Cline account with transcription credits
+
+**Audio Quality:**
+- Records in WebM format with Opus codec
+- Mono audio at 16kHz sample rate
+- Optimized for voice recognition
+
+**Privacy:**
+- Audio recorded locally on your machine
+- Only audio files sent for transcription
+- No audio stored after transcription
+- Temporary files automatically cleaned up
+
+## Cost and Credits
+
+Voice transcription costs $0.006 per minute through your Cline account. For most users, this works out to pennies per session.
+
+A typical 5-minute planning conversation costs about 3 cents. Even heavy voice users rarely spend more than a few dollars per month.
+
+<Note>
+Pricing is experimental and may change as we refine the service.
+</Note>
+
+## Best Practices
+
+**Speak Naturally**
+Don't try to speak like you type. Use your normal conversational tone and don't worry about perfect grammar.
+
+**Give Context First**
+Start with the big picture, then drill down into specifics. "I'm building a React app that needs to handle real-time data, and I'm running into performance issues with the WebSocket connection..."
+
+**Use Voice for Exploration**
+Dictation is perfect for exploratory conversations where you're not sure exactly what you need. Start talking through the problem and let the conversation evolve.
+
+**Combine with Text**
+You don't have to use voice for everything. Use voice for complex explanations and context, then switch to text for quick follow-ups or code snippets.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Microphone Not Working**
+- Check your IDE permissions for microphone access
+- Ensure FFmpeg is properly installed
+- Try refreshing VSCode/your editor
+
+**Poor Transcription Quality**
+- Speak clearly and at normal volume
+- Reduce background noise if possible
+- Check your microphone settings
+
+**Connection Issues**
+- Verify internet connection
+- Check if firewall is blocking Cline's servers
+- Try signing out and back into your Cline account
+
+**Authentication Issues**
+- Sign out and back into your Cline account if you see authentication errors
+- Check that your account has sufficient transcription credits
+- Verify your internet connection is stable
+
+**Audio Recording Issues**
+- Ensure FFmpeg is properly installed and accessible
+- Check that your browser/IDE has microphone permissions
+- Try restarting your editor if audio capture fails
+
+## The Future of AI Collaboration
+
+When you can speak your thoughts as fast as you think them, you stop self-editing. You share the full context, the edge cases, the "what if" scenarios that matter. This leads to better solutions and fewer back-and-forth clarifications.

+</Frame>
+
+When you use `/deep-planning`, Cline follows a four-step process that mirrors how senior developers approach complex features: thorough investigation, discussion & clarification of requirements, detailed planning, and structured task creation with progress tracking.
+
+## The Four-Step Process
+
+### Step 1: Silent Investigation
+
+Cline becomes a detective, silently exploring your codebase to understand its structure, patterns, and constraints. He examines source files, analyzes import patterns, discovers class hierarchies, and identifies technical debt markers. No commentary, no narration - just focused research.
+
+During this phase, Cline runs commands like:
+- Finding all class and function definitions across your codebase
+- Analyzing import patterns to understand dependencies
+- Discovering project structure and file organization
+- Identifying TODOs and technical debt
+
+### Step 2: Discussion and Questions
+
+Once Cline understands your codebase, he asks targeted questions that will shape the implementation. These aren't generic questions - they're specific to your project and the feature you're building.
+
+Questions might cover:
+- Clarifying ambiguous requirements
+- Choosing between equally valid implementation approaches
+- Confirming assumptions about system behavior
+- Understanding preferences for technical decisions
+
+### Step 3: Implementation Plan Document
+
+Cline creates a structured markdown document (`implementation_plan.md`) that serves as your implementation blueprint. This isn't a vague outline - it's a detailed specification with exact file paths, function signatures, and implementation order.
+
+The plan includes eight comprehensive sections:
+- **Overview**: The goal and high-level approach
+- **Types**: Complete type definitions and data structures
+- **Files**: Exact files to create, modify, or delete
+- **Functions**: New and modified functions with signatures
+- **Classes**: Class modifications and inheritance details
+- **Dependencies**: Package requirements and versions
+- **Testing**: Validation strategies and test requirements
+- **Implementation Order**: Step-by-step execution sequence
+
+### Step 4: Implementation Task Creation
+
+Cline creates a new task that references the plan document and includes trackable implementation steps. The task comes with specific commands to read each section of the plan, ensuring the implementing agent (whether that's you or Cline in Act Mode) can navigate the blueprint efficiently.
+
+<Tip>
+  Deep Planning works beautifully with [Focus Chain](/features/focus-chain). The implementation steps automatically become a todo list with real-time progress tracking, keeping complex projects organized and on track.
+</Tip>
+
+## Using Deep Planning
+
+Start a deep planning session by typing `/deep-planning` followed by your feature description:
+
+```
+/deep-planning Add user authentication with JWT tokens and role-based access control
+```
+
+Cline will begin his investigation immediately. You'll see him reading files and running commands to understand your codebase. Once he's gathered enough context, he'll engage you in discussion before creating the plan.
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+Here's how I use `/deep-planning` for a real feature:
+
+<Steps>
+  <Step title="Initiate Planning">
+    I type `/deep-planning implement a caching layer for API responses`
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Silent Investigation">
+    Cline explores my codebase, examining:
+    - Current API structure and endpoints
+    - Existing data flow patterns
+    - Database queries and performance bottlenecks
+    - Configuration and environment setup
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Targeted Discussion">
+    Cline asks me:
+    - "Should we use Redis or in-memory caching?"
+    - "What's the acceptable cache staleness for user data?"
+    - "Do you need cache invalidation webhooks?"
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Plan Creation">
+    Cline generates `implementation_plan.md` with:
+    - Cache service class specifications
+    - Redis connection configuration
+    - Modified API endpoints with caching logic
+    - Cache key generation strategies
+    - TTL configurations for different data types
+  </Step>
+  <Step title="Task Generation">
+    Cline creates a new task with:
+    - Reference to the implementation plan
+    - Commands to read specific sections
+    - Trackable todo items for each implementation step
+    - Request to switch to Act Mode for execution
+  </Step>
+</Steps>
+
+## Integration with Plan/Act Mode
+
+Deep Planning is designed to work seamlessly with [Plan/Act Mode](/features/plan-and-act):
+
+- Use `/deep-planning` in Plan Mode for the investigation and planning phases
+- The generated task requests switching to Act Mode for implementation
+- Focus Chain automatically tracks progress through the implementation steps
+
+This separation ensures planning stays focused on architecture while implementation stays focused on execution.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### When to Use Deep Planning
+
+Use `/deep-planning` for:
+- Features touching multiple parts of your codebase
+- Architectural changes requiring careful coordination
+- Complex integrations with external services
+- Refactoring efforts that need systematic execution
+- Any feature where you'd normally spend time whiteboarding
+
+### Making the Most of Investigation
+
+Let Cline complete his investigation thoroughly. The quality of the plan directly correlates with how well he understands your codebase. If you have specific areas he should examine, mention them in your initial request.
+
+### Reviewing the Plan
+
+Always review `implementation_plan.md` before starting implementation. The plan is comprehensive but not immutable - you can edit it directly if needed. Think of it as a collaborative document between you and Cline.
+
+### Tracking Progress
+
+With Focus Chain enabled, your implementation progress displays in the task header. Each completed step gets checked off automatically as Cline works through the plan, giving you real-time visibility into complex implementations.
+
+## Inspiration
+
+I use `/deep-planning` whenever I'm about to build something that would normally require a design document. Recent examples from my workflow:
+
+- **Migrating authentication systems**: Deep Planning mapped every endpoint, identified all authentication touchpoints, and created a migration plan that avoided breaking changes.
+
+- **Adding real-time features**: The plan covered WebSocket integration, event handling, state synchronization, and fallback mechanisms for disconnections.
+
+- **Database schema refactoring**: Cline identified all affected queries, created migration scripts, and planned the rollout to minimize downtime.
+
+- **API versioning implementation**: The plan detailed route changes, backward compatibility layers, deprecation notices, and client migration paths.
+
+The power of `/deep-planning` is that it forces thoughtful architecture before implementation. It's like having a senior developer review your approach before you write code, except that developer has perfect knowledge of your entire codebase.
+
+<Note>
+  Deep Planning requires models with strong reasoning capabilities. It works best with the latest generation of models, like GPT-5, Claude 4, Gemini 2.5, or Grok 4. Smaller models may struggle with the comprehensive analysis required.
+</Note>
+
+For simpler tasks that don't require extensive planning, consider using [/newtask](/features/slash-commands/new-task) to create focused tasks with context, or jump straight into implementation if the path forward is clear.

+title: "YOLO Mode"
+sidebarTitle: "YOLO Mode"
+---
+
+YOLO mode is exactly what it sounds like - Cline auto-approves everything. Check the box in feature settings and he'll execute file changes, terminal commands, even transitions from Plan to Act mode without asking.
+
+Think of it as [Auto Approve](/features/auto-approve) on steroids - instead of granular permissions, YOLO mode gives Cline complete autonomy.
+
+<Note>
+**Warning: This is dangerous.** YOLO mode disables all safety checks. Cline will execute whatever he decides without asking permission.
+</Note>
+
+## What Gets Auto-Approved
+
+When YOLO mode is enabled, Cline automatically approves:
+
+- **All file operations** - reading, writing, and modifying files anywhere on your system
+- **All terminal commands** - including potentially destructive operations
+- **Browser actions** - web scraping, form submissions, navigation
+- **MCP server tools** - external integrations and API calls
+- **Mode transitions** - automatic switching from Plan to Act mode
+
+Essentially, every safety guardrail is removed. Cline operates with complete autonomy.
+
+## How to Enable YOLO Mode
+
+Navigate to Cline Settings → Features and check the "YOLO Mode" box. That's it - no confirmation dialogs, no additional warnings. Once enabled, Cline will start auto-approving all actions immediately.
+
+To disable it, simply uncheck the box. Any pending actions will still require your approval once YOLO mode is turned off.
+
+## When You Might Use This
+
+YOLO mode was built primarily for our upcoming scriptable CLI where fully autonomous execution makes sense. In the GUI, you might consider it for:
+
+**Rapid prototyping** where you want zero friction and don't care about potential mistakes. Perfect for throwaway experiments or exploring new ideas quickly.
+
+**Trusted, repetitive tasks** where you've already validated Cline's approach and want to eliminate approval overhead. Think routine refactoring or well-established patterns.
+
+**Demonstration purposes** where you want to show Cline's capabilities without constant interruptions.
+
+## What Could Go Wrong
+
+Since YOLO mode removes all safety checks, Cline could:
+
+- Delete important files without warning
+- Execute commands that modify system settings
+- Make network requests to external services
+- Overwrite configuration files
+- Install or uninstall software packages
+- Commit and push changes to version control
+
+The risk level depends entirely on what you ask Cline to do. Simple tasks remain relatively safe, but complex requests can have unpredictable consequences.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+If you decide to use YOLO mode:
+
+**Start with isolated environments.** Use it in throwaway projects or sandboxed environments first. Never enable it on production codebases until you understand the risks.
+
+**Be specific with requests.** Vague instructions combined with unlimited permissions can lead to unexpected results. The clearer your requirements, the more predictable Cline's actions.
+
+**Monitor the output.** Even though Cline doesn't ask for permission, he still shows you what he's doing. Watch the terminal output and file changes as they happen.
+
+**Keep version control handy.** Make sure you can easily revert changes if something goes wrong. Git becomes your safety net when YOLO mode is your workflow.
+
+## Inspiration: What Becomes Possible
+
+With YOLO mode enabled, you can:
+
+**Build entire applications** from a single prompt. Describe what you want and let Cline handle everything - file creation, dependency installation, configuration setup, even deployment scripts.
+
+**Automate complex workflows** that normally require dozens of approval clicks. Data processing pipelines, build system setup, or multi-step refactoring operations become seamless.
+
+**Rapid iteration cycles** where you can quickly test ideas without approval friction. Perfect for exploring different approaches or experimenting with new technologies.
+
+**Live demonstrations** where you can show Cline's full capabilities without stopping to approve every action. Great for presentations or teaching scenarios.
+
+The key is understanding that YOLO mode transforms Cline from an interactive assistant into an autonomous agent. Use that power wisely.

+    Cline for JetBrains works almost identically to Cline in VSCode. All the core features work properly: diff editing, using tools, logging in with different providers, MCP servers, Cline rules and workflows, and more.
+
+
+    ### Installation Steps
+
+    **Method 1: From IDE (Recommended)**
+    1. Open your JetBrains IDE
+    2. Go to **Settings** (`Ctrl+Alt+S` on Windows/Linux, `Cmd+,` on macOS)
+    3. Navigate to **Plugins** → **Marketplace**
+    4. Search for "Cline" and click **Install**
+    5. Restart your IDE

+
+    **Method 2: Browser Install**
+    
+    Visit the [JetBrains Marketplace](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/28247-cline) and click **Install to IDE**.
+
+    <Accordion title="Method 3: Manual Installation">
+
+    1. Download the plugin from the [marketplace page](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/28247-cline)
+    2. Go to **Settings** → **Plugins**
+    3. Click the gear icon → **Install Plugin from Disk**
+    4. Select the downloaded `.zip` file
+    5. Restart your IDE
+
+    </Accordion>
+
+    ### Using the Plugin
+
+    After installation, you’ll find Cline in your IDE. Look for the Cline tool window (usually on the right side) or go to View → Tool Windows → Cline.
+
+    ### Key Features
+
+    Cline for JetBrains includes all core features:
+    - Diff editing and file modifications
+    - Multiple API providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, local models)
+    - MCP servers and custom tools
+    - Cline rules and workflows
+    - @ mentions for files, folders, and problems
+    - Drag & drop support
+
+    > **Note:** Terminal output appears in collapsible sections rather than streaming directly to chat.
+
+    ### Key Differences from VSCode
+    The terminal integration works differently in JetBrains. Unlike VSCode where terminal output streams directly to the chat, JetBrains shows command output in a collapsible section. Commands still execute successfully - you just need to expand the Command Output section to see results.

-## Understanding Context Windows
+New models drop constantly, so this guide focuses on what's working well with Cline right now. We'll keep it updated as the landscape shifts.
 
-Think of a context window as your AI assistant's working memory - similar to RAM in a computer. It determines how much information the model can "remember" and process at once during your conversation. This includes:
+## Current Top Models
 
--   Your code files and conversations
--   The assistant's responses
--   Any documentation or additional context provided
+| Model | Context Window | Input Price* | Output Price* | Best For |
+|-------|---------------|--------------|---------------|----------|
+| **Claude Sonnet 4.5** | 1M tokens | $3-6 | $15-22.50 | Reliable tool usage, complex codebases |
+| **Qwen3 Coder** | 256K tokens | $0.20 | $0.80 | Coding tasks, open source flexibility |
+| **Gemini 2.5 Pro** | 1M+ tokens | TBD | TBD | Large codebases, document analysis |
+| **GPT-5** | 400K tokens | $1.25 | $10 | Latest OpenAI tech, three modes |
 
-Context windows are measured in tokens (roughly 3/4 of a word in English). Different models have different context window sizes:
+*Per million tokens
 
--   Claude 3.5 Sonnet: 200K tokens
--   DeepSeek Models: 128K tokens
--   Gemini Flash 2.0: 1M tokens
--   Gemini 1.5 Pro: 2M tokens
+## Budget Options
 
-When you reach the limit of your context window, older information needs to be removed to make room for new information - just like clearing RAM to run new programs. This is why sometimes AI assistants might seem to "forget" earlier parts of your conversation.
+| Model | Context Window | Input Price* | Output Price* | Notes |
+|-------|---------------|--------------|---------------|-------|
+| **DeepSeek V3** | 128K tokens | $0.14 | $0.28 | Great value for daily coding |
+| **DeepSeek R1** | 128K tokens | $0.55 | $2.19 | Budget reasoning champion |
+| **Qwen3 32B** | 128K tokens | Varies | Varies | Open source, multiple providers |
+| **Z AI GLM 4.5** | 128K tokens | TBD | TBD | MIT licensed, hybrid reasoning |
 
-Cline helps you manage this limitation with its Context Window Progress Bar, which shows:
+*Per million tokens
 
--   Input tokens (what you've sent to the model)
--   Output tokens (what the model has generated)
--   A visual representation of how much of your context window you've used
--   The total capacity for your chosen model

-</Frame>
+## Context Window Guide
 
-This visibility helps you work more effectively with Cline by letting you know when you might need to start fresh or break tasks into smaller chunks.
+| Size | Word Count | Use Case |
+|------|------------|----------|
+| 32K tokens | ~24,000 words | Single files, small projects |
+| 128K tokens | ~96,000 words | Most coding projects |
+| 200K tokens | ~150,000 words | Large codebases |
+| 400K+ tokens | ~300,000+ words | Entire applications |
 
-### Model Comparison
+**Performance note**: Most models start dropping in quality around 400-500K tokens, even if they claim higher limits.

+## The Bottom Line
 
-### A Note on Local Models
+Start with **Claude Sonnet 4.5** if you want reliability. Experiment with **open source options** once you're comfortable to find the best fit for your workflow and budget.
 
-While running models locally might seem appealing for cost savings, we currently don't recommend any local models for use with Cline. [Local models are significantly less reliable](https://docs.cline.bot/running-models-locally/read-me-first) at using Cline's essential tools and typically retain only 1-26% of the original model's capabilities. The full cloud version of DeepSeek-R1, for example, is 671B parameters - local versions are drastically simplified copies that struggle with complex tasks and tool usage. Even with high-end hardware (RTX 3070+, 32GB+ RAM), you'll experience slower responses, less reliable tool execution, and reduced capabilities. For the best development experience, we recommend sticking with the cloud models listed above.

-### Key Takeaways
-
-1. **Plan vs Act Matters**: Choose models based on task type
-2. **Real Performance > Benchmarks**: Focus on actual Cline performance
-3. **Mix & Match**: Use different models for planning and implementation
-4. **Cost vs Quality**: Premium models worth it for critical code
-5. **Keep Backups**: Have alternatives ready for API issues
-
-_\*Note: Based on real usage patterns and community feedback rather than just benchmarks. Your experience may vary. This is not an exhaustive list of all the models available for use within Cline._
+The landscape moves fast - these recommendations reflect what's working now, but keep an eye on new releases.

+
+## Automatic Context Management
+
+Cline includes intelligent features to manage context automatically:
+
+### Default Settings You Should Keep On
+
+**Focus Chain** - Enabled by default in v3.25. Cline generates a todo list at task start and keeps it in context so the thread doesn't drift. You can edit the markdown to add or reorder steps and Cline will adapt. [Learn more about Focus Chain](/features/focus-chain).
+
+**Auto Compact** - Always on. As the context window reaches its limit, Cline creates a comprehensive summary, replaces the bloated history, and continues where it left off. Decisions, code changes, and state are preserved. [Learn more about Auto Compact](/features/auto-compact).
+
+## Advanced Context Tools
+
+When you need more control over context management:
+
+### Deep Planning (`/deep-planning`)
+For substantial features, refactors, or integrations. Cline investigates your codebase, asks targeted questions, then writes `implementation_plan.md`. It creates a fresh task with distilled, high-value context. [Learn more about Deep Planning](/features/slash-commands/deep-planning).
+
+### New Task (`/newtask`)
+At natural transition points, packages only what matters into a fresh task. Clean slate for implementation after research, or crisp handoff between teammates. [Learn more about New Task](/features/slash-commands/new-task).
+
+### Smol (`/smol`)
+Compress the conversation in place to keep momentum. Ideal during debugging or exploratory work when you don't want to break flow. [Learn more about Smol](/features/slash-commands/smol).
+
+### Memory Bank + .clinerules
+For non-trivial projects. The Memory Bank captures project knowledge as Markdown in your repo. `.clinerules` are version-controlled instructions that align Cline's behavior with your team. [Learn more about Memory Bank](/prompting/cline-memory-bank) and [Cline Rules](/features/cline-rules).

+
+### Cerebras's Wafer-Scale Advantage
+
+Cerebras has fundamentally reimagined AI hardware architecture to solve the inference speed problem:
+
+#### Wafer-Scale Architecture
+Traditional GPUs use separate chips for compute and memory, forcing them to constantly shuttle model weights back and forth. Cerebras built the world's largest AI chip—a wafer-scale engine that stores entire models on-chip. No external memory, no bandwidth bottlenecks, no waiting.
+
+#### Revolutionary Speed
+- **Up to 2,600 tokens per second** - often 20x faster than GPUs
+- **Single-second reasoning** - what used to take minutes now happens instantly
+- **Real-time applications** - reasoning models become practical for interactive use
+- **No bandwidth limits** - entire models stored on-chip eliminate memory bottlenecks
+
+#### The Cerebras Scaling Law
+Cerebras discovered that **faster inference enables smarter AI**. Modern reasoning models generate thousands of tokens as "internal monologue" before answering. On traditional hardware, this takes too long for real-time use. Cerebras makes reasoning models fast enough for everyday applications.
+
+#### Quality Without Compromise
+Unlike other speed optimizations that sacrifice accuracy, Cerebras maintains full model quality while delivering unprecedented speed. You get the intelligence of frontier models with the responsiveness of lightweight ones.

 ### Tips and Notes
 
--   **Model Selection:** SAP AI Core offers a wide range of models. You won't be able to use the model, even if selected, if a deployment doesn't exist in the provided resource group.
+- **Service Plan Requirement:** You must have the SAP AI Core `extended` service plan to use LLMs with Cline. Other service plans do not provide access to Generative AI Hub.
+
+- **Orchestration Mode (Recommended):** Keep Orchestration Mode enabled for the simplest setup. It provides automatic access to all available models without requiring manual deployments.
+
+- **Native API Mode:** Only disable Orchestration Mode if you have specific requirements that necessitate direct AI Core API access or need features not supported by the orchestration mode.
+
+- **When using Native API Mode:**
+    -   **Model Selection:** The model dropdown displays models in two separate lists:
+        -   **Deployed Models:** These models are already deployed in your specified resource group and are ready to use immediately.
+        -   **Not Deployed Models:** These models don't have active deployments in your specified resource group. You won't be able to use these models until you create deployments for them in SAP AI Core.
+    -   **Creating Deployments:** To use a model that has not been deployed yet, you'll need to create a deployment in your SAP AI Core service instance. See [Create a Deployment for a Generative AI Model](https://help.sap.com/docs/sap-ai-core/sap-ai-core-service-guide/create-deployment-for-generative-ai-model-in-sap-ai-core) for instructions.

+description: "Use Vercel AI Gateway in Cline to reach 100+ models from one endpoint with routing, retries, and spend observability."
+---
+
+Vercel AI Gateway gives you a single API to access models from many providers. You switch by model id without swapping SDKs or juggling multiple keys. Cline integrates directly so you can pick a Gateway model in the dropdown, use it like any other provider, and see token and cache usage in the stream.
+
+Useful links:
+- Team dashboard: https://vercel.com/d?to=%2F%5Bteam%5D%2F%7E%2Fai
+- Models catalog: https://vercel.com/ai-gateway/models
+- Docs: https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway
+
+## What you get
+
+- One endpoint for 100+ models with a single key
+- Automatic retries and fallbacks that you configure on the dashboard
+- Spend monitoring with requests by model, token counts, cache usage, latency percentiles, and cost
+- OpenAI-compatible surface so existing clients work
+
+## Getting an API Key
+
+1. Sign in at https://vercel.com
+2. Dashboard → AI Gateway → API Keys → Create key
+3. Copy the key
+
+For more on authentication and OIDC options, see https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/authentication
+
+## Configuration in Cline
+
+1. Open Cline settings
+2. Select **Vercel AI Gateway** as the API Provider
+3. Paste your Gateway API Key
+4. Pick a model from the list. Cline fetches the catalog automatically. You can also paste an exact id
+
+Notes:
+- Model ids often follow `provider/model`. Copy the exact id from the catalog  
+  Examples:
+  - `openai/gpt-5`
+  - `anthropic/claude-sonnet-4`
+  - `google/gemini-2.5-pro`
+  - `groq/llama-3.1-70b`
+  - `deepseek/deepseek-v3`

+</Frame>
+
+What to watch:
+- Requests by model - confirm routing and adoption
+- Tokens - input vs output, including reasoning if exposed
+- Cache - cached input and cache creation tokens
+- Latency - p75 duration and p75 time to first token
+- Cost - per project and per model
+
+Use it to:
+- Compare output tokens per request before and after a model change
+- Validate cache strategy by tracking cache reads and write creation
+- Catch TTFT regressions during experiments
+- Align budgets with real usage
+
+## Supported models
+
+The gateway supports a large and changing set of models. Cline pulls the list from the Gateway API and caches it locally. For the current catalog, see https://vercel.com/ai-gateway/models
+
+## Tips
+
+<Tip>
+Use separate gateway keys per environment (dev, staging, prod). It keeps dashboards clean and budgets isolated.
+</Tip>
+
+<Note>
+Pricing is pass-through at provider list price. Bring-your-own key has 0% markup. You still pay provider and processing fees.
+</Note>
+
+<Info>
+Vercel does not add rate limits. Upstream providers may. New accounts receive $5 credits every 30 days until the first payment.
+</Info>
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- 401 - send the Gateway key to the Gateway endpoint, not an upstream URL
+- 404 model - copy the exact id from the Vercel catalog
+- Slow first token - check p75 TTFT in the dashboard and try a model optimized for streaming
+- Cost spikes - break down by model in the dashboard and cap or route traffic
+
+## Inspiration
+
+- Multi-model evals - swap only the model id in Cline and compare latency and output tokens
+- Progressive rollout - route a small percent to a new model in the dashboard and ramp with metrics
+- Budget enforcement - set per-project limits without code changes

- * @description **Version 1**
- * Parses an assistant message string potentially containing mixed text and tool usage blocks
- * marked with XML-like tags into an array of structured content objects.
- *
- * This version iterates through the message character by character, building an accumulator string.
- * It maintains state to track whether it's currently parsing text, a tool use block, or a specific tool parameter.
- * It detects the start and end of tool uses and parameters by checking if the accumulator ends with
- * the corresponding opening or closing tags.
- * Special handling is included for `write_to_file` and `new_rule` tool uses to correctly parse
- * the `content` parameter, which might contain the closing tag itself, by looking for the *last*
- * occurrence of the closing tag.
- * If the input string ends mid-tag or mid-content, the last block (text or tool use) is marked as partial.
- *
- * @param assistantMessage The raw string output from the assistant.
- * @returns An array of `AssistantMessageContent` objects, which can be `TextContent` or `ToolUse`.
- *          Blocks that were not fully closed by the end of the input string will have their `partial` flag set to `true`.

-# Cline Extension Architecture
-
-This directory contains architectural documentation for the Cline VSCode extension.
-
-## Extension Architecture Diagram
-
-The [extension-architecture.mmd](./extension-architecture.mmd) file contains a Mermaid diagram showing the high-level architecture of the Cline extension. The diagram illustrates:
-
-1. **Core Extension**
-   - Extension entry point and main classes
-   - State management through VSCode's global state and secrets storage
-   - Core business logic in the Cline class
-
-2. **Webview UI**
-   - React-based user interface
-   - State management through ExtensionStateContext
-   - Component hierarchy
-
-3. **Storage**
-   - Task-specific storage for history and state
-   - Git-based checkpoint system for file changes
-
-4. **Data Flow**
-   - Core extension data flow between components
-   - Webview UI data flow
-   - Bidirectional communication between core and webview
-
-## Viewing the Diagram
-
-To view the diagram:
-1. Install a Mermaid diagram viewer extension in VSCode
-2. Open extension-architecture.mmd
-3. Use the extension's preview feature to render the diagram
-
-You can also view the diagram on GitHub, which has built-in Mermaid rendering support.
-
-## Color Scheme
-
-The diagram uses a high-contrast color scheme for better visibility:
-- Pink (#ff0066): Global state and secrets storage components
-- Blue (#0066ff): Extension state context
-- Green (#00cc66): Cline provider
-- All components use white text for maximum readability

-### .clineignore Support
-
-To give you more control over which files are accessible to Cline, we've implemented `.clineignore` functionality, similar to `.gitignore`. This allows you to specify files and directories that Cline should **not** access or process. This is useful for:
-
-*   **Privacy:** Preventing Cline from accessing sensitive or private files in your workspace.
-*   **Performance:**  Excluding large directories or files that are irrelevant to your tasks, potentially improving the efficiency of Cline.
-*   **Context Management:**  Focusing Cline's attention on the relevant parts of your project.
-
-**How to use `.clineignore`**
-
-1.  **Create a `.clineignore` file:** In the root directory of your workspace (the same level as your `.vscode` folder, or the top level folder you opened in VS Code), create a new file named `.clineignore`.
-
-2.  **Define ignore patterns:** Open the `.clineignore` file and specify the patterns for files and directories you want Cline to ignore. The syntax is the same as `.gitignore`:
-
-    *   Each line in the file represents a pattern.
-    *   **Standard glob patterns are supported:**
-        *   `*` matches zero or more characters
-        *   `?` matches one character
-        *   `[]` matches a character range
-        *   `**` matches any number of directories and subdirectories.
-
-    *   **Directory patterns:** Append `/` to the end of a pattern to specify a directory.
-    *   **Negation patterns:** Start a pattern with `!` to negate (un-ignore) a previously ignored pattern.
-    *   **Comments:** Start a line with `#` to add comments.
-
-    **Example `.clineignore` file:**
-
-    ```
-    # Ignore log files
-    *.log
-
-    # Ignore the entire 'node_modules' directory
-    node_modules/
-
-    # Ignore all files in the 'temp' directory and its subdirectories
-    temp/**
-
-    # But DO NOT ignore 'important.log' even if it's in the root
-    !important.log
-
-    # Ignore any file named 'secret.txt' in any subdirectory
-    **/secret.txt
-    ```
-
-3.  **Cline respects your `.clineignore`:** Once you save the `.clineignore` file, Cline will automatically recognize and apply these rules.
-
-    *   **File Access Control:** Cline will not be able to read the content of ignored files using tools like `read_file`. If you attempt to use a tool on an ignored file, Cline will inform you that access is blocked due to `.clineignore` settings.
-    *   **File Listing:** When you ask Cline to list files in a directory (e.g., using `list_files`), ignored files and directories will still be listed, but they will be marked with a **🔒** symbol next to their name to indicate that they are ignored. This helps you understand which files Cline can and cannot interact with.
-
-4.  **Dynamic Updates:** Cline monitors your `.clineignore` file for changes. If you modify, create, or delete your `.clineignore` file, Cline will automatically update its ignore rules without needing to restart VS Code or the extension.
-
-**In Summary**
-
-The `.clineignore` file provides a powerful and flexible way to control Cline's access to your workspace files, enhancing privacy, performance, and context management. By leveraging familiar `.gitignore` syntax, you can easily tailor Cline's focus to the most relevant parts of your projects.

-
-**Quick Links:**
-
--   [Building MCP Servers from GitHub](mcp-server-from-github.md)
--   [Building Custom MCP Servers from Scratch](mcp-server-from-scratch.md)
-
-This document explains Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, their capabilities, and how Cline can help build and use them.
-
-## Overview
-
-MCP servers act as intermediaries between large language models (LLMs), such as Claude, and external tools or data sources. They are small programs that expose functionalities to LLMs, enabling them to interact with the outside world through the MCP. An MCP server is essentially like an API that an LLM can use.
-
-## Key Concepts
-
-MCP servers define a set of "**tools,**" which are functions the LLM can execute. These tools offer a wide range of capabilities.
-
-**Here's how MCP works:**
-
--   **MCP hosts** discover the capabilities of connected servers and load their tools, prompts, and resources.
--   **Resources** provide consistent access to read-only data, akin to file paths or database queries.
--   **Security** is ensured as servers isolate credentials and sensitive data. Interactions require explicit user approval.
-
-## Use Cases
-
-The potential of MCP servers is vast. They can be used for a variety of purposes.
-
-**Here are some concrete examples of how MCP servers can be used:**
-
--   **Web Services and API Integration:**
-
-    -   Monitor GitHub repositories for new issues

-    -   Verify with: `uv --version`
-
-❗ If any of these commands fail or show older versions, please install/update before continuing!
-
-⚠️ If you run into other errors, see the "Troubleshooting" section below.
-
-## 🎯 Quick Steps (Only After Requirements Are Met!)
-
-### 1. 🛠️ Install Your First MCP Server
-
-1. From the Cline extension, click the `MCP Server` tab
-1. Click the `Edit MCP Settings` button
-
- <img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/abf908b1-be98-4894-8dc7-ef3d27943a47" alt="MCP Server Panel" width="400" />
-
-1. The MCP settings files should be display in a tab in VS Code.
-1. Replace the file's contents with this code:
-
-For Windows:
-
-```json
-{
-	"mcpServers": {
-		"mcp-installer": {
-			"command": "cmd.exe",
-			"args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@anaisbetts/mcp-installer"]
-		}
-	}
-}
-```
-
-For Mac and Linux:
-
-```json
-{
-	"mcpServers": {
-		"mcp-installer": {
-			"command": "npx",
-			"args": ["@anaisbetts/mcp-installer"]
-		}
-	}
-}
-```
-
-After saving the file:
-
-1. Cline will detect the change automatically
-2. The MCP installer will be downloaded and installed
-3. Cline will start the MCP installer
-4. You'll see the server status in Cline's MCP settings UI:
-
-<img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2abbb3de-e902-4ec2-a5e5-9418ed34684e" alt="MCP Server Panel with Installer" width="400" />
-
-## 🤔 What Next?
-
-Now that you have the MCP installer, you can ask Cline to add more servers from:
-
-1. NPM Registry: <https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=%40modelcontextprotocol>
-2. Python Package Index: <https://pypi.org/search/?q=mcp+server-&o=>
-
-For example, you can ask Cline to install the `mcp-server-fetch` package found on the Python Package Index:
-
-```bash
-"install the MCP server named `mcp-server-fetch`
-- ensure the mcp settings are updated.
-- use uvx or python to run the server."
-```
-
-You should witness Cline:
-
-1. Install the `mcp-server-fetch` python package
-1. Update the mcp setting json file
-1. Start the server and start the server
-
-The mcp settings file should now look like this:
-
-_For a Windows machine:_
-
-```json
-{
-	"mcpServers": {
-		"mcp-installer": {
-			"command": "cmd.exe",
-			"args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@anaisbetts/mcp-installer"]
-		},
-		"mcp-server-fetch": {
-			"command": "uvx",
-			"args": ["mcp-server-fetch"]
-		}
-	}
-}
-```
-
-You you can always check the status of your server by going to clients MCP server tab. See the image above
-
-That's it! 🎉 You've just given Cline some awesome new abilities!
-
-## 📝 Troubleshooting
-
-### 1. I'm Using `asdf` and Get "unknown command: npx"
-
-There is some slightly bad news. You should still be able to get things to work, but will have to do a bit more manual work unless MCP server packaging evolves a bit. One option is to uninstall `asdf` , but we will assume you do not want to do that.
-
-Instead, you will need to follow the instructions above to "Edit MCP Settings". Then, as [this post](https://dev.to/cojiroooo/mcp-using-node-on-asdf-382n) describes, you need to add and "env" entry to each server's configs.
-
-```json
-"env": {
-        "PATH": "/Users/<user_name>/.asdf/shims:/usr/bin:/bin",
-        "ASDF_DIR": "<path_to_asdf_bin_dir>",
-        "ASDF_DATA_DIR": "/Users/<user_name>/.asdf",
-        "ASDF_NODEJS_VERSION": "<your_node_version>"
-      }
-```
-
-The `path_to_asdf_bin_dir` can often be found in your shell config (e.g. `.zshrc`). If you are using Homebrew, you can use `echo ${HOMEBREW_PREFIX}` to find the start of the directory and then append `/opt/asdf/libexec`.
-
-Now for some good news. While not perfect, you can get Cline to do this for you fairly reliably for subsequent server install. Add the following to your "Custom Instructions" in the Cline settings (top-right toolbar button):
-
-> When installing MCP servers and editing the cline_mcp_settings.json, if the server requires use of `npx` as the command, you must copy the "env" entry from the "mcp-installer" entry and add it to the new entry. This is vital to getting the server to work properly when in use.
-
-### 2. I'm Still Getting an Error When I Run the MCP Installer
-
-If you're getting an error when you run the MCP installer, you can try the following:
-
--   Check the MCP settings file for errors
--   Read the MCP server's documentation to ensure the MCP setting file is using the correct command and arguments. 👈
--   Use a terminal and run the command with its arguments directly. This will allow you to see the same errors that Cline is seeing.

-# Building Custom MCP Servers From Scratch Using Cline: A Comprehensive Guide
-
-This guide provides a comprehensive walkthrough of building a custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) server from scratch, leveraging the powerful AI capabilities of Cline. The example used will be building a "GitHub Assistant Server" to illustrate the process.
-
-## Understanding MCP and Cline's Role in Building Servers
-
-### What is MCP?
-
-The Model Context Protocol (MCP) acts as a bridge between large language models (LLMs) like Claude and external tools and data. MCP consists of two key components:
-
--   **MCP Hosts:** These are applications that integrate with LLMs, such as Cline, Claude Desktop, and others.
--   **MCP Servers:** These are small programs specifically designed to expose data or specific functionalities to the LLMs through the MCP.
-
-This setup is beneficial when you have an MCP-compliant chat interface, like Claude Desktop, which can then leverage these servers to access information and execute actions.
-
-### Why Use Cline to Create MCP Servers?
-
-Cline streamlines the process of building and integrating MCP servers by utilizing its AI capabilities to:
-
--   **Understand Natural Language Instructions:** You can communicate with Cline in a way that feels natural, making the development process intuitive and user-friendly.
--   **Clone Repositories:** Cline can directly clone existing MCP server repositories from GitHub, simplifying the process of using pre-built servers.
--   **Build Servers:** Once the necessary code is in place, Cline can execute commands like `npm run build` to compile and prepare the server for use.
--   **Handle Configuration:** Cline manages the configuration files required for the MCP server, including adding the new server to the `cline_mcp_settings.json` file.
--   **Assist with Troubleshooting:** If errors arise during development or testing, Cline can help identify the cause and suggest solutions, making debugging easier.
-
-## Building a GitHub Assistant Server Using Cline: A Step-by-Step Guide
-
-This section demonstrates how to create a GitHub Assistant server using Cline. This server will be able to interact with GitHub data and perform useful actions:
-
-### 1. Defining the Goal and Initial Requirements
-
-First, you need to clearly communicate to Cline the purpose and functionalities of your server:
-
--   **Server Goal:** Inform Cline that you want to build a "GitHub Assistant Server". Specify that this server will interact with GitHub data and potentially mention the types of data you are interested in, like issues, pull requests, and user profiles.
--   **Access Requirements:** Let Cline know that you need to access the GitHub API. Explain that this will likely require a personal access token (GITHUB_TOKEN) for authentication.
--   **Data Specificity (Optional):** You can optionally tell Cline about specific fields of data you want to extract from GitHub, but this can also be determined later as you define the server's tools.
-
-### 2. Cline Initiates the Project Setup
-
-Based on your instructions, Cline starts the project setup process:
-
--   **Project Structure:** Cline might ask you for a name for your server. Afterward, it uses the MCP `create-server` tool to generate the basic project structure for your GitHub Assistant server. This usually involves creating a new directory with essential files like `package.json`, `tsconfig.json`, and a `src` folder for your TypeScript code. \
--   **Code Generation:** Cline generates starter code for your server, including:
-    -   **File Handling Utilities:** Functions to help with reading and writing files, commonly used for storing data or logs. \
-    -   **GitHub API Client:** Code to interact with the GitHub API, often using libraries like `@octokit/graphql`. Cline will likely ask for your GitHub username or the repositories you want to work with. \
-    -   **Core Server Logic:** The basic framework for handling requests from Cline and routing them to the appropriate functions, as defined by the MCP. \
--   **Dependency Management:** Cline analyzes the code and identifies necessary dependencies, adding them to the `package.json` file. For example, interacting with the GitHub API will likely require packages like `@octokit/graphql`, `graphql`, `axios`, or similar. \
--   **Dependency Installation:** Cline executes `npm install` to download and install the dependencies listed in `package.json`, ensuring your server has all the required libraries to function correctly. \
--   **Path Corrections:** During development, you might move files or directories around. Cline intelligently recognizes these changes and automatically updates file paths in your code to maintain consistency.
--   **Configuration:** Cline will modify the `cline_mcp_settings.json` file to add your new GitHub Assistant server. This will include:
-    -   **Server Start Command:** Cline will add the appropriate command to start your server (e.g., `npm run start` or a similar command).
-    -   **Environment Variables:** Cline will add the required `GITHUB_TOKEN` variable. Cline might ask you for your GitHub personal access token, or it might guide you to safely store it in a separate environment file. \
--   **Progress Documentation:** Throughout the process, Cline keeps the "Memory Bank" files updated. These files document the project's progress, highlighting completed tasks, tasks in progress, and pending tasks.
-
-### 3. Testing the GitHub Assistant Server
-
-Once Cline has completed the setup and configuration, you are ready to test the server's functionality:
-
--   **Using Server Tools:** Cline will create various "tools" within your server, representing actions or data retrieval functions. To test, you would instruct Cline to use a specific tool. Here are examples related to GitHub:
-    -   **`get_issues`:** To test retrieving issues, you might say to Cline, "Cline, use the `get_issues` tool from the GitHub Assistant Server to show me the open issues from the 'cline/cline' repository." Cline would then execute this tool and present you with the results.
-    -   **`get_pull_requests`:** To test pull request retrieval, you could ask Cline to "use the `get_pull_requests` tool to show me the merged pull requests from the 'facebook/react' repository from the last month." Cline would execute this tool, using your GITHUB_TOKEN to access the GitHub API, and display the requested data. \
--   **Providing Necessary Information:** Cline might prompt you for additional information required to execute the tool, such as the repository name, specific date ranges, or other filtering criteria.
--   **Cline Executes the Tool:** Cline handles the communication with the GitHub API, retrieves the requested data, and presents it in a clear and understandable format.
-
-### 4. Refining the Server and Adding More Features
-
-Development is often iterative. As you work with your GitHub Assistant Server, you'll discover new functionalities to add, or ways to improve existing ones. Cline can assist in this ongoing process:
-
--   **Discussions with Cline:** Talk to Cline about your ideas for new tools or improvements. For example, you might want a tool to `create_issue` or to `get_user_profile`. Discuss the required inputs and outputs for these tools with Cline.
--   **Code Refinement:** Cline can help you write the necessary code for new features. Cline can generate code snippets, suggest best practices, and help you debug any issues that arise.
--   **Testing New Functionalities:** After adding new tools or functionalities, you would test them again using Cline, ensuring they work as expected and integrate well with the rest of the server.
--   **Integration with Other Tools:** You might want to integrate your GitHub Assistant server with other tools. For instance, in the "github-cline-mcp" source, Cline assists in integrating the server with Notion to create a dynamic dashboard that tracks GitHub activity. \
-
-By following these steps, you can create a custom MCP server from scratch using Cline, leveraging its powerful AI capabilities to streamline the entire process. Cline not only assists with the technical aspects of building the server but also helps you think through the design, functionalities, and potential integrations.

--   Test and Iterate: Experiment to find what works best for your workflow.
-
-
-### Support for Loading Files from the `.clinerules/` Directory
-All files under the `.clinerules/` directory are recursively loaded, and their contents are merged into clineRulesFileInstructions.
-
-#### Example 1:
-```
-.clinerules/
-├── .local-clinerules
-└── .project-clinerules
-```
-
-#### Example 2:
-```
-.clinerules/
-├── .clinerules-nextjs
-├── .clinerules-serverside
-└── tests/
-    ├── .pytest-clinerules
-    └── .jest-clinerules
-```
-
-## Prompting Cline 💬
-
-**Prompting is how you communicate your needs for a given task in the back-and-forth chat with Cline.** Cline understands natural language, so write conversationally.
-
-Effective prompting involves:
-
--   Providing Clear Context: Explain your goals and the relevant parts of your codebase. Use `@` to reference files or folders.
--   Breaking Down Complexity: Divide large tasks into smaller steps.
--   Asking Specific Questions: Guide Cline toward the desired outcome.
--   Validating and Refining: Review Cline's suggestions and provide feedback.
-
-### Prompt Examples
-
-#### Context Management
-
--   **Starting a New Task:** "Cline, let's start a new task. Create `user-authentication.js`. We need to implement user login with JWT tokens. Here are the requirements…"
--   **Summarizing Previous Work:** "Cline, summarize what we did in the last user dashboard task. I want to capture the main features and outstanding issues. Save this to `cline_docs/user-dashboard-summary.md`."
-
-#### Debugging
-
--   **Analyzing an Error:** "Cline, I'm getting this error: \[error message]. It seems to be from \[code section]. Analyze this error and suggest a fix."
--   **Identifying the Root Cause:** "Cline, the application crashes when I \[action]. The issue might be in \[problem areas]. Help me find the root cause and propose a solution."
-
-#### Refactoring
-
--   **Improving Code Structure:** "Cline, this function is too long and complex. Refactor it into smaller functions."
--   **Simplifying Logic:** "Cline, this code is hard to understand. Simplify the logic and make it more readable."
-
-#### Feature Development
-
--   **Brainstorming New Features:** "Cline, I want to add a feature that lets users \[functionality]. Brainstorm some ideas and consider implementation challenges."
--   **Generating Code:** "Cline, create a component that displays user profiles. The list should be sortable and filterable. Generate the code for this component."
-
-## Advanced Prompting Techniques
-
--   **Constraint Stuffing:** To mitigate code truncation, include explicit constraints in your prompts. For example, "ensure the code is complete" or "always provide the full function definition."
--   **Confidence Checks:** Ask Cline to rate its confidence (e.g., "on a scale of 1-10, how confident are you in this solution?")
--   **Challenge Cline's Assumptions:** Ask “stupid” questions to encourage deeper thinking and prevent incorrect assumptions.
-

-# Cline Memory Bank - Custom Instructions
-
-### 1. Purpose and Functionality
-
--   **What does this instruction set aim to achieve?**
-
-    -   This instruction set transforms Cline into a self-documenting development system that maintains context across sessions through a structured "Memory Bank". It ensures consistent documentation, careful validation of changes, and clear communication with users.
-
--   **What types of projects or tasks is this best suited for?**
-    -   Projects requiring extensive context tracking.
-    -   Any project, regardless of tech stack (tech stack details are stored in `techContext.md`).
-    -   Ongoing and new projects.
-
-### 2. Usage Guide
-
--   **How to Add These Instructions**
-    1. Open VSCode
-    2. Click the Cline extension settings dial ⚙️
-    3. Find the "Custom Instructions" field
-    4. Copy and paste the instructions from the section below
-
-<img width="345" alt="Screenshot 2024-12-26 at 11 22 20 AM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8b4ff439-db66-48ec-be13-1ddaa37afa9a" />
-
--   **Project Setup**
-
-    1. Create an empty `cline_docs` folder in your project root (i.e. YOUR-PROJECT-FOLDER/cline_docs)
-    2. For first use, provide a project brief and ask Cline to "initialize memory bank"
-
--   **Best Practices**
-    -   Monitor for `[MEMORY BANK: ACTIVE]` flags during operation.
-    -   Pay attention to confidence checks on critical operations.
-    -   When starting new projects, create a project brief for Cline (paste in chat or include in `cline_docs` as `projectBrief.md`) to use in creating the initial context files.
-        -   note: productBrief.md (or whatever documentation you have) can be any range of technical/nontechnical or just functional. Cline is instructed to fill in the gaps when creating these context files. For example, if you don't choose a tech stack, Cline will for you.
-    -   Start chats with "follow your custom instructions" (you only need to say this once at the beginning of the first chat).
-    -   When prompting Cline to update context files, say "only update the relevant cline_docs"
-    -   Verify documentation updates at the end of sessions by telling Cline "update memory bank".
-    -   Update memory bank at ~2 million tokens and end the session.

-# Cline's Memory Bank
-
-You are Cline, an expert software engineer with a unique constraint: your memory periodically resets completely. This isn't a bug - it's what makes you maintain perfect documentation. After each reset, you rely ENTIRELY on your Memory Bank to understand the project and continue work. Without proper documentation, you cannot function effectively.
-
-## Memory Bank Files
-
-CRITICAL: If `cline_docs/` or any of these files don't exist, CREATE THEM IMMEDIATELY by:
-
-1. Reading all provided documentation
-2. Asking user for ANY missing information
-3. Creating files with verified information only
-4. Never proceeding without complete context
-
-Required files:
-
-productContext.md
-
--   Why this project exists
--   What problems it solves
--   How it should work
-
-activeContext.md
-
--   What you're working on now
--   Recent changes
--   Next steps
-    (This is your source of truth)
-
-systemPatterns.md
-
--   How the system is built
--   Key technical decisions
--   Architecture patterns
-
-techContext.md
-
--   Technologies used
--   Development setup
--   Technical constraints
-
-progress.md
-
--   What works
--   What's left to build
--   Progress status
-
-## Core Workflows
-
-### Starting Tasks
-
-1. Check for Memory Bank files
-2. If ANY files missing, stop and create them
-3. Read ALL files before proceeding
-4. Verify you have complete context
-5. Begin development. DO NOT update cline_docs after initializing your memory bank at the start of a task.
-
-### During Development
-
-1. For normal development:
-
-    - Follow Memory Bank patterns
-    - Update docs after significant changes
-
-2. Say `[MEMORY BANK: ACTIVE]` at the beginning of every tool use.
-
-### Memory Bank Updates
-
-When user says "update memory bank":
-
-1. This means imminent memory reset
-2. Document EVERYTHING about current state
-3. Make next steps crystal clear
-4. Complete current task
-
-Remember: After every memory reset, you begin completely fresh. Your only link to previous work is the Memory Bank. Maintain it as if your functionality depends on it - because it does.

-# Cline's Memory Bank
-
-I am Cline, an expert software engineer with a unique characteristic: my memory resets completely between sessions. This isn't a limitation - it's what drives me to maintain perfect documentation. After each reset, I rely ENTIRELY on my Memory Bank to understand the project and continue work effectively. I MUST read ALL memory bank files at the start of EVERY task - this is not optional.
-
-## Memory Bank Structure
-
-The Memory Bank consists of required core files and optional context files, all in Markdown format. Files build upon each other in a clear hierarchy:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    PB[projectbrief.md] --> PC[productContext.md]
-    PB --> SP[systemPatterns.md]
-    PB --> TC[techContext.md]
-    
-    PC --> AC[activeContext.md]
-    SP --> AC
-    TC --> AC
-    
-    AC --> P[progress.md]
-```
-
-### Core Files (Required)
-1. `projectbrief.md`
-   - Foundation document that shapes all other files
-   - Created at project start if it doesn't exist
-   - Defines core requirements and goals
-   - Source of truth for project scope
-
-2. `productContext.md`
-   - Why this project exists
-   - Problems it solves
-   - How it should work
-   - User experience goals
-
-3. `activeContext.md`
-   - Current work focus
-   - Recent changes
-   - Next steps
-   - Active decisions and considerations
-
-4. `systemPatterns.md`
-   - System architecture
-   - Key technical decisions
-   - Design patterns in use
-   - Component relationships
-
-5. `techContext.md`
-   - Technologies used
-   - Development setup
-   - Technical constraints
-   - Dependencies
-
-6. `progress.md`
-   - What works
-   - What's left to build
-   - Current status
-   - Known issues
-
-### Additional Context
-Create additional files/folders within memory-bank/ when they help organize:
-- Complex feature documentation
-- Integration specifications
-- API documentation
-- Testing strategies
-- Deployment procedures
-

-    Update --> Rules[Update .clinerules if needed]
-    Rules --> Execute[Execute Task]
-    Execute --> Document[Document Changes]
-```
-
-## Documentation Updates
-
-Memory Bank updates occur when:
-1. Discovering new project patterns
-2. After implementing significant changes
-3. When user requests with **update memory bank** (MUST review ALL files)
-4. When context needs clarification
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Start[Update Process]
-    
-    subgraph Process
-        P1[Review ALL Files]
-        P2[Document Current State]
-        P3[Clarify Next Steps]
-        P4[Update .clinerules]
-        
-        P1 --> P2 --> P3 --> P4
-    end
-    
-    Start --> Process
-```
-
-Note: When triggered by **update memory bank**, I MUST review every memory bank file, even if some don't require updates. Focus particularly on activeContext.md and progress.md as they track current state.
-
-## Project Intelligence (.clinerules)
-
-The .clinerules file is my learning journal for each project. It captures important patterns, preferences, and project intelligence that help me work more effectively. As I work with you and the project, I'll discover and document key insights that aren't obvious from the code alone.
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Start{Discover New Pattern}
-    
-    subgraph Learn [Learning Process]
-        D1[Identify Pattern]
-        D2[Validate with User]
-        D3[Document in .clinerules]
-    end
-    
-    subgraph Apply [Usage]
-        A1[Read .clinerules]
-        A2[Apply Learned Patterns]
-        A3[Improve Future Work]
-    end
-    
-    Start --> Learn
-    Learn --> Apply
-```
-
-### What to Capture
-- Critical implementation paths
-- User preferences and workflow
-- Project-specific patterns
-- Known challenges
-- Evolution of project decisions
-- Tool usage patterns
-
-The format is flexible - focus on capturing valuable insights that help me work more effectively with you and the project. Think of .clinerules as a living document that grows smarter as we work together.
-
-REMEMBER: After every memory reset, I begin completely fresh. The Memory Bank is my only link to previous work. It must be maintained with precision and clarity, as my effectiveness depends entirely on its accuracy.
