 # Changelog
 
+## [4.0.0]
+
+### Added
+
+- Add the SDK-backed VS Code extension runtime. Cline now runs tasks through the shared Cline SDK session layer for agent turns, tools, Plan/Act mode coordination, MCP, checkpoints, telemetry, provider changes, compaction, mistake limits, and task history.
+- Add ClinePass to the VS Code extension, including onboarding, provider selection, signup and subscription handoff, live model lists, entitlement and organization error states, out-of-credit prompts, and clearer ClinePass auth/error handling.
+- Add the Customize marketplace for discovering and managing Skills, MCP servers, and Plugins from the extension, including installed/marketplace tabs, search and filtering, install/uninstall flows, enable/disable controls, and support for plugin-bundled skills.
+- Cline Plugins: Plugins let you extend Cline with custom tools, workflows, skills, and MCP-powered capabilities tailored to your team or project. Install them from the new Customize marketplace to add specialized behavior, connect external services, and package reusable automations—so Cline can do more than code: it can adapt to the way you work.
+- Add queued prompts in chat. Messages submitted while Cline is already working are now queued, shown while the current turn streams, and can be cancelled before they run.
+- Add edit-and-regenerate support for previous user messages, with clearer Reset Chat and Reset Code actions.
+- Add generic SDK provider settings and model-catalog support so more providers can share the same model picker, reasoning controls, dynamic model IDs, provider config persistence, and custom model handling.
+- Add additional SDK-backed provider exposure and model/provider updates, including ClinePass models, refreshed Cline catalog data, Fireworks GLM 5.2, Kimi K2.6 Fast, Kimi K2.7 Code, Qwen 3.7 Plus, MiniMax M3 updates, SAP AI Core wiring, LiteLLM model fetching, Codex OAuth credentials, and OpenAI-compatible model settings.
+- Add MCP support for plugins and shared marketplace install/uninstall plumbing used by the VS Code extension.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Migrate the VS Code extension from the legacy task implementation to the shared Cline SDK and move the extension build/package workflow to Bun.
+- Rework Plan/Act mode handling through SDK coordinators, including closer CLI parity and automatic continuation when switching from Plan to Act.
+- Rework provider and model configuration around `providers.json`, the model catalog, and SDK session config so settings are preserved consistently across provider switches and active sessions can restart when the selected provider changes.
+- Simplify provider settings UI by replacing many provider-specific views with shared generic settings components and consistent reasoning selectors.
+- Simplify terminal execution through the SDK run-commands path, including clearer non-interactive command guidance and safer structured command formatting.
+- Migrate legacy MCP files and formats into the shared settings file and protect MCP settings writes with safer locking/atomic updates.
+- Refresh the MCP hub automatically after marketplace installs so newly installed servers are available without a manual restart.
+- Reorganize MCP/Skills/Plugins entry points under Customize, hide workflows from the Customize menu, wrap Customize tabs on narrow screens, and allow the MCP Marketplace tab to be disabled remotely while installed MCP servers remain accessible.
+- Simplify auto-approval settings. Command auto-approval is now disabled by default for safer new and reset configurations, and the auto-approval UI has been streamlined.
+- Update task history handling for the SDK migration, including legacy task history visibility, metadata preservation on resume, and corrected deletion behavior.
+- Route compacting and mistake-limit behavior through the SDK so the Compact button and mistake tracking affect the active SDK session.
+- Remove the legacy Explain Changes feature as part of the SDK migration cleanup.
+- Temporarily disable subagents in the VS Code extension while the SDK-backed experience is stabilized.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fix marketplace edge cases, including refreshing MCP servers after marketplace installs, disabling the MCP Marketplace tab from remote config, hiding workflows from Customize, surfacing plugin-bundled skills, and uninstalling shared marketplace entries.
+- Fix chat submission during active turns by queuing user messages instead of dropping or racing them, showing pending/queued states promptly, rendering direct user messages immediately, and removing delayed send behavior.
+- Fix editing previous user messages so Escape cancels editing locally and reset action labels are clearer.
+- Fix terminal reliability, including standalone Windows output capture, hardened PowerShell command handling, running-state display for in-progress commands, raw structured command preservation, single-quote handling, cwd setup timeouts, failing-command stdout capture, heredoc coalescing, and removal of duplicated command echoes in tool results.
+- Fix SDK tool-result and provider-message budgeting by truncating large tool outputs by default, capping assistant text, limiting bash/file-read/search output ingestion, bounding media budgets, batching outdated-read rewrites to preserve provider prefix caches, and normalizing JSON-like tool inputs by schema.
+- Fix login and feature-flag resolution by using the correct user/account identity on startup and simplifying the login UX.

 # Cline CLI Changelog
 
+## 3.0.38
+
+- New plan/act accent palette: act mode is now blue (`#79b8ff`) and plan mode amber, replacing the old cyan/yellow — applied across dialogs, the model selector, config, onboarding, markdown, and syntax highlighting, with light-theme variants tuned for contrast
+- Restyled chat input: a minimal frame with full-width horizontal rules and a bold accent prompt glyph instead of the tinted background, plus slimmer user-message bubbles
+- Assistant markdown accents are now tinted by the mode (plan/act) they were produced in
+- Polished the status bar usage display and ClinePass model name
+- Harmonized the success/diff green and dark syntax-highlighting colors with the new brand palette
+- The thinking-level picker now defaults its cursor to Medium instead of Off
+- `read_files` now tolerates malformed input from weaker models: line-range entries (`start_line`/`end_line`) sent as separate array items are coalesced back onto the preceding file path instead of being rejected (from SDK v0.0.58)
+- Models in the live catalog that don't report a context window now default to a 128K input-token limit, so under-specified models get a usable context budget (from SDK v0.0.57)
+
+## 3.0.37
+
+- Weaker models (e.g. DeepSeek) that emit malformed tool calls — wrong argument types or truncated JSON — are now handled gracefully and run instead of erroring out
+- Plan/act mode switches are now visible to the model, so it knows when you change modes mid-session
+- Fixed plan/act mode notices being dropped from prompts sent to the model
+- Fixed a race where switching modes in an empty session could trigger an unexpected restart
+
+## 3.0.36
+
+- Fixed plan mode's `switch_to_act_mode` tool not taking effect until the end of the turn: the model would keep running with plan-mode tools (no file editor) and fall back to editing files through shell commands. Switching to act mode now ends the plan-mode run and automatically continues with the approved plan using the full act-mode toolset. A Tab mode toggle racing a completing turn can no longer auto-start plan execution you didn't approve.
+
+## 3.0.35
+
+- ClinePass is now enabled for all CLI users
+- Recover missing interactive sessions when reading messages
+- Format structured commands in history export
+- Add the subscription promo code when linking to the dashboard subscription page
+- Add Tencent TokenHub as a provider (from SDK v0.0.55)
+- Fix first-prompt truncation on high-output models (e.g. MiniMax M3) that could immediately auto-compact and cut the initial task down to just the input wrapper (from SDK v0.0.55)
+- Use a curated default when migrating legacy provider settings (from SDK v0.0.55)
+- Advertise run commands as shell strings (from SDK v0.0.55)
+- Refresh the bundled model catalog with the latest provider models (from SDK v0.0.55)
+
+## 3.0.34
+
+- Fixed the ClinePass upgrade notice appearing immediately after completing onboarding.
+- Improved the wording of the ClinePass onboarding step.
+- Streamlined the Cline provider picker by merging the subscription and usage/billing options into one and removing the credits link.
+
+## 3.0.33
+
+- Show a ClinePass subscription URL as a fallback during onboarding so you can still subscribe if the subscription screen can't open automatically
+- Hide the ClinePass promo for users who already have a ClinePass subscription
+- Use an adaptive plan accent color for ClinePass prompts so they fit the active theme
+
+## 3.0.32
+
+- Improved the ClinePass onboarding experience
+- Added an intermediate step before going to ClinePass model selection
+- Made the ClinePass subscription screen selectable
+- Promoted ClinePass in the startup notice
+- Used "ClinePass" as one word consistently and refined the provider UI copy
+- More accurate context compaction and clearer error messages (from SDK v0.0.54)
+
+## 3.0.31
+
+- Show when request cost is covered by your Cline subscription
+- Prompt to switch to ClinePass when you run out of credits, and list ClinePass features in the not-subscribed message
+- Added an option to open the subscription page from the ClinePass options
+- Added marketplace uninstall support and surfaced plugin-bundled skills
+- Require quoted prompts for one-shot mode
+- Capped MCP tool names at 64 characters for OpenAI-compatible providers
+- Updated coupon code
+
+## 3.0.30
+
+- Added a token count to the status bar, shown alongside cost
+- Added organization-specific error messages
+- Added SAP AI Core provider support
+- Refreshed the model catalog with the latest provider models
+- Preserved OpenRouter reasoning-disable behavior and improved OpenRouter prompt caching
+- Routed LiteLLM model fetches through the SDK and stopped unrelated models from appearing in the LiteLLM model list
+- Updated ClinePass models live, restored ClinePass models in onboarding, and improved ClinePass error messages
+- Threaded proxy/CA-aware networking into the inference path
+- Persisted Bedrock settings to providers.json
+- Normalized JSON-like tool inputs by schema for more reliable tool calls
+- Fixed an "ERROR: EMPTY CONTENT" message that could appear when an error occurred
+- Fixed a packaging issue (createRequire) that could break the CLI at runtime
+
