chore(vscode): bump to 4.0.10 for legacy release

* fix(vscode): soften mistake-limit-reached copy

The consecutive-mistake-limit message told users their model was 'less capable' and to switch to a stronger one, which came across as condescending and unhelpful. Replace both the Claude and non-Claude variants with a single neutral message that explains what happened and what the user can do next.

-# Bun (tooling) and Node (runtime)
-
-This repo uses **bun** for package management and task running, and **Node** as
-the execution runtime. Both are correct at the same time; the distinction is the
-source of most confusion, so keep it straight before editing scripts, configs,
-docs, or comments.
-
-## Use bun for tooling
-
-- `bun install` (never `npm install` / `npm ci`)
-- `bun run <script>` (never `npm run <script>`)
-- `bunx <bin>` (never `npx <bin>`)
-- `bun <file>.ts` to run a TS entrypoint directly (no `ts-node` / `tsx`)
-- `bun esbuild.mjs` to drive the build (esbuild/vite are still the bundlers)
-- `bun run --parallel ...` for parallel tasks
-
-The root `bun.lock` is the single lockfile for the whole workspace, including
-`apps/vscode`, `webview-ui`, and `testing-platform`. There are no per-package npm
-lockfiles.
-
-## Node is the runtime — do NOT rewrite these to bun
-
-The build product runs on Node: the VS Code extension host loads
-`dist/extension.js` as CommonJS under Node, and the standalone `cline-core` is a
-Node process. The following are Node runtime/ABI references and are correct as-is:
-
-| Reference | Why it is Node |
-|-----------|----------------|
-| esbuild `platform: "node"` / `target: "node..."` | The bundle targets the Node runtime (extension host, standalone core). |
-| `TARGET_NODE_VERSION` (`scripts/package-standalone.mjs`) | Pins the Node ABI of the bundled standalone runtime (matches the JetBrains-packaged Node). |
-| `prebuild-install --target=<node version>` | Downloads native `.node` binaries for that Node ABI. |
-| `NODE_PATH=... node cline-core.js` | The standalone core is launched by Node, not bun. |
-| `node:` import specifiers (e.g. `node:fs`) | Node builtin module scheme; unrelated to tooling. |
-| `process.versions.node`, `engines.node`, `@types/node` | Runtime version probe / declared runtime / its types. |
-| `ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE` | VS Code/Electron runs the extension host as Node. |
-
-When a file legitimately uses both bun and node (e.g. `package-standalone.mjs`
-does `bun install` but `prebuild-install --target=<node>`), the `node` token is
-the runtime/ABI target, not tooling. If unsure, leave it.
-
-## Tests: bun vs the VS Code host
-
-A test file's runner is decided by its import:
-
-- **`import ... from "bun:test"`** → runs under `bun test` (the node-side unit
-  suites + the SDK/model-catalog suites). `scripts/run-bun-unit-tests.ts`
-  discovers these by the `bun:test` import and runs one isolated bun process per
-  file. `build-tests.js` excludes them from the integration compile so the
-  `bun:test` builtin never reaches Node.
-- **`import ... from "mocha"`** → runs under `@vscode/test-cli` in a real VS Code
-  extension host (Node). These exercise the live `vscode` API and cannot run
-  under bun.
-
-So a file imports `bun:test` XOR `mocha`. Don't add `bun:test` to a test that
-needs the real extension host.

-# Debug Harness
-
-HTTP-controlled debugger for the VSCode extension at `src/dev/debug-harness/server.ts`.
-
-## Quick start
-
-```bash
-# Build extension first if needed (protos + esbuild):
-bun run protos && IS_DEV=true bun esbuild.mjs
-
-# Launch (skip-build if already built):
-bun src/dev/debug-harness/server.ts --skip-build --auto-launch
-
-# In another terminal:
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"status"}'
-```
-
-## Data Isolation
-
-The debugee runs with `CLINE_DIR=~/.cline2` by default, separate from your real `~/.cline`.
-This prevents the debugee's logout from logging out the debugger, and vice versa.
-Override with `--cline-dir /tmp/test-dir`. Check with `status()` → `clineDir`.
-
-## Browser Capture & OAuth
-
-The debugee runs with `CLINE_CAPTURE_BROWSER=1`, which intercepts `openExternal()` in
-`src/utils/env.ts`. URLs are captured instead of opening a real browser:
-
-- Logged to `$CLINE_DIR/data/debug-captured-urls.jsonl`
-- POSTed in real-time to `/captured-url` on the harness server
-- Queryable via `oauth.captured_urls`
-
-### OAuth API
-
-- **`oauth.captured_urls`** `{clear?}` — URLs the debugee tried to open
-- **`oauth.read_stored_token`** — Check auth token presence in secrets.json
-- **`oauth.simulate_callback`** `{path, code?, state?, provider?, token?}` — Build vscode:// callback URI
-- **`oauth.read_captured_urls_file`** — Read on-disk JSONL of captured URLs
-
-### OAuth testing flow
-
-For **Cline OAuth** (SDK local callback): The SDK starts a local HTTP server, the auth URL
-is captured. To complete: open the captured URL in a real browser (it redirects back to the
-SDK's callback server), OR extract the callback port and `curl http://127.0.0.1:PORT/callback?code=...`.
-
-For **MCP/Provider OAuth** (vscode:// URI): The redirect goes to a vscode:// URI.
-`oauth.simulate_callback` only *builds* the URI — it does not deliver it, and the ESM
-extension host can't `require()` the handler. To actually deliver the callback, call the
-debug-only hook via `ext.evaluate` (with `awaitPromise: true`):
-`globalThis.__clineHandleUri("vscode://saoudrizwan.claude-dev/...?code=...&state=...")`.
-It runs the same `SharedUriHandler.handleUri` as VSCode's real URI handler and exists only
-when `CLINE_CAPTURE_BROWSER` is set (the harness always sets it; never ships in prod).
-For end-to-end MCP OAuth, get a real `code` from the local MCP OAuth test server
-(`bun run dev:mcp-oauth-test-server`).
-
-## Navigating Views — Use Commands, Not Clicks
-
-Don't try to find/click small sidebar icons. Use VSCode commands via command palette.
-Registered in `src/registry.ts`:
-
-| Command | View |
-|---------|------|
-| `cline.accountButtonClicked` | Account / sign-in |
-| `cline.historyButtonClicked` | Task history |
-| `cline.settingsButtonClicked` | Settings |
-| `cline.mcpButtonClicked` | MCP servers |
-| `cline.plusButtonClicked` | New task (chat) |
-| `cline.worktreesButtonClicked` | Worktrees |
-
-```bash
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"ui.command_palette","params":{"command":"cline.accountButtonClicked"}}'
-```
-
-## Key commands
-
-All via `POST localhost:19229/api` with `{"method":"...", "params":{...}}`:
-
-- **`launch`** / **`shutdown`** — lifecycle
-- **`ui.screenshot`** — screenshot to `/tmp/cline-debug/`; returns `{path}` — **use `read_file` on the path to examine, do NOT `open` the file** (Preview.app covers the VSCode window)
-- **`ui.open_sidebar`** — open the Cline sidebar
-- **`ext.set_breakpoint`** `{file, line, condition?}` — breakpoint by source file (sourcemap-resolved)
-- **`ext.evaluate`** `{expression, callFrameId?}` — eval in extension host
-- **`ext.resume`** / **`ext.step_over`** / **`ext.step_into`** — stepping
-- **`ext.call_stack`** — inspect when paused
-- **`web.evaluate`** `{expression}` — eval in webview
-- **`web.post_message`** `{message}` — send postMessage to extension host via exposed vsCodeApi
-- **`wait_for_pause`** `{timeout?}` — block until breakpoint hit
-- **`ui.locator`** `{role?, testId?, text?, frame?}` — Playwright locator (auto-retries on stale sidebar frame)
-- **`ui.react_input`** `{text, selector?, clear?, submit?}` — set React textarea value via `execCommand('insertText')`; works reliably across multiple tasks
-- **`ui.send_message`** `{text, images?, files?, responseType?}` — send chat message bypassing the textarea entirely (via gRPC postMessage)
-- **`ui.command_palette`** `{command}` — run VSCode command
-
-## Typical Session
-
-```bash
-# 1. Launch
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"launch","params":{"skipBuild":true}}'
-
-# 2. Open sidebar + dismiss overlays (ALWAYS do this first)
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"ui.open_sidebar"}'
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"web.evaluate","params":{"expression":"document.querySelectorAll(\".sr-only\").forEach(el => el.parentElement?.click())"}}'
-
-# 3. Navigate to view
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"ui.command_palette","params":{"command":"cline.accountButtonClicked"}}'
-
-# 4. Check captured OAuth URLs if testing auth
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"oauth.captured_urls"}'
-
-# 5. Verify
-curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method":"ui.screenshot"}'
-```
-
-## Caveats
-
-- **⚠️ Dismiss promotional overlays FIRST**: On fresh launches, full-screen promo overlays block the sidebar. **Dismiss immediately after `ui.open_sidebar`**, before any other interaction or screenshot. May need to run twice:
-  ```bash
-  curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method": "ui.open_sidebar"}'
-  curl localhost:19229/api -d '{"method": "web.evaluate", "params": {"expression": "document.querySelectorAll(\".sr-only\").forEach(el => el.parentElement?.click())"}}'
-  ```
-- **Screenshots — don't open the file**: `ui.screenshot` and `ui.sidebar_screenshot` save PNGs to `/tmp/cline-debug/` and return the `{path}`. Use `read_file` on that path to examine screenshots. Running `open <path>` launches Preview.app on macOS which covers the VSCode window.
-- **Scripts count = 0 after launch**: CDP connects after extension host starts, so scripts parsed during startup aren't tracked. Breakpoints still work via sourcemap resolution.
-- **Port 9230**: Extension host inspector. If another VSCode instance uses this port, the harness will fail to connect. Kill other debug instances first.
-- **macOS only** for now (Playwright Electron launch behavior).
-- **Webview CDP**: `connect_webview` may fail depending on Electron version. `web.evaluate` still works via Playwright's `frame.evaluate()` fallback.
-- **Sourcemap paths**: esbuild outputs relative paths like `../src/extension.ts` in the sourcemap. The resolver handles this, but if a file isn't found, use `ext.source_files` to see exact paths.
-- **OAuth with fake codes**: Browser capture intercepts the URL but doesn't provide a valid auth code. For real OAuth testing, open the captured URL in a browser. For unit testing, mock the token exchange.

-- Avoid provider-specific string matching / hardcoded provider branches when fixing provider/config plumbing.

-## Searching the Codebase — Avoiding Build Output
-
-Several directories contain build output or generated code that produces
-noisy or unusable results with `search_files` / `grep`:
-
-| Directory | What it is | Why it's a problem |
-|-----------|-----------|-------------------|
-| `out/` | esbuild bundle output | Mirrors `src/` structure as minified JS — every search gets duplicate hits on single-line files |
-| `dist/` | Packaged extension | Entire extension bundled into one minified `extension.js` (~1 long line) |
-| `dist-standalone/` | Standalone build output | Same minification issue |
-| `src/generated/` | Generated protobuf code | Auto-generated from `proto/`; not the source of truth |
-| `src/shared/proto/` | Generated proto type defs | Auto-generated from `proto/`; not the source of truth |
-| `node_modules/` | Dependencies | Huge, not project source |
-
-### How to skip build output
-
-**`search_files`** — Point at `src/` (not the project root) and use `file_pattern`:
-```
-search_files(path="src/core", regex="myFunction", file_pattern="*.ts")
-```
-The `file_pattern` parameter is the most effective filter — e.g. `"*.ts"`,
-`"*.tsx"`, `"*.proto"`.
-
-**`grep` directly** — Exclude build dirs and restrict to source extensions:
-```bash
-grep -rn "myFunction" src/ --include="*.ts" --exclude-dir={out,dist,node_modules,generated}
-```
-
-### When you must search minified files
-
-Sometimes you need to verify what got bundled (e.g., checking if a change
-made it into the build). Minified files are typically one long line, so
-normal `grep` shows the entire file as context. Use these approaches:
-
-- **`grep -oP`** to extract just the match with limited surrounding context:
-  ```bash
-  grep -oP '.{0,40}myFunction.{0,40}' dist/extension.js
-  ```
-- **`read_file`** on files in `out/src/` — these have source maps and are
-  more readable than `dist/extension.js` (which is the fully bundled output).
-- **Source maps** — `out/src/*.js.map` and `dist/extension.js.map` can be
-  used to trace minified output back to original source locations.

+## Adding a New API Provider
+When adding a new provider (e.g., "openai-codex"), you must update the proto conversion layer in THREE places or the provider will silently reset to Anthropic:
+
+1. `proto/cline/models.proto` - Add to the `ApiProvider` enum (e.g., `OPENAI_CODEX = 40;`)
+2. `convertApiProviderToProto()` in `src/shared/proto-conversions/models/api-configuration-conversion.ts` - Add case mapping string to proto enum
+3. `convertProtoToApiProvider()` in the same file - Add case mapping proto enum back to string
+
+**Why this matters:** Without these, the provider string hits the `default` case and returns `ANTHROPIC`. The webview, provider list, and handler all work fine, but the state silently resets when it round-trips through proto serialization. No error is thrown.
+
+**Other files to update when adding a provider:**
+- `src/shared/api.ts` - Add to `ApiProvider` union type, define models
+- `src/shared/providers/providers.json` - Add to provider list for dropdown
+- `src/core/api/index.ts` - Register handler in `createHandlerForProvider()`
+- `webview-ui/src/components/settings/utils/providerUtils.ts` - Add cases in `getModelsForProvider()` and `normalizeApiConfiguration()`
+- `webview-ui/src/utils/validate.ts` - Add validation case
+- `webview-ui/src/components/settings/ApiOptions.tsx` - Render provider component
+
+## Responses API Providers (OpenAI Codex, OpenAI Native)
+Providers using OpenAI's Responses API require native tool calling. XML tools don't work with the Responses API.
+
+**Symptoms of broken native tool calling:**
+- Tools get called multiple times (e.g., `ask_followup_question` asks the same question twice)
+- Tool arguments get duplicated or malformed
+- The model responds but tools aren't recognized
+
+**Root causes to check:**
+1. **Provider missing from `isNextGenModelProvider()`** in `src/utils/model-utils.ts`. The native variant matchers (e.g., `native-gpt-5/config.ts`) call this function. If your provider isn't in the list, the matcher returns false and falls back to XML tools.
+
+2. **Model missing `apiFormat: ApiFormat.OPENAI_RESPONSES`** in its model info (`src/shared/api.ts`). This property signals that the model requires native tool calling. The task runner in `src/core/task/index.ts` checks this and forces `enableNativeToolCalls: true` regardless of user settings.
+
+**When adding a new Responses API provider:**
+1. Add provider to `isNextGenModelProvider()` list in `src/utils/model-utils.ts`
+2. Set `apiFormat: ApiFormat.OPENAI_RESPONSES` on all models that use the Responses API
+3. The variant matcher and task runner will handle the rest automatically
+
+## Adding Tools to System Prompt
+This is tricky—multiple prompt variants and configs. **Always search for existing similar tools first and follow their pattern.** Look at the full chain from prompt definition → variant configs → handler → UI before implementing.
+
+1. **Add to `ClineDefaultTool` enum** in `src/shared/tools.ts`
+2. **Tool definition** in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/tools/` (create file like `generate_explanation.ts`)
+   - Define variants for each `ModelFamily` (generic, next-gen, xs, etc.)
+   - Export variants array (e.g., `export const my_tool_variants = [GENERIC, NATIVE_NEXT_GEN, XS]`)
+   - **Fallback behavior**: If a variant isn't defined for a model family, `ClineToolSet.getToolByNameWithFallback()` automatically falls back to GENERIC. So you only need to export `[GENERIC]` unless the tool needs model-specific behavior.
+3. **Register in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/tools/init.ts`** - Import and spread into `allToolVariants`
+4. **Add to variant configs** - Each model family has its own config in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/variants/*/config.ts`. Add your tool's enum to the `.tools()` list:
+   - `generic/config.ts`, `next-gen/config.ts`, `gpt-5/config.ts`, `native-gpt-5/config.ts`, `native-gpt-5-1/config.ts`, `native-next-gen/config.ts`, `gemini-3/config.ts`, `glm/config.ts`, `hermes/config.ts`, `xs/config.ts`
+   - **Important**: If you add to a variant's config, make sure the tool spec exports a variant for that ModelFamily (or relies on GENERIC fallback)
+5. **Create handler** in `src/core/task/tools/handlers/`
+6. **Wire up in `ToolExecutor.ts`** if needed for execution flow
+7. **Add to tool parsing** in `src/core/assistant-message/index.ts` if needed
+8. **If tool has UI feedback**: add `ClineSay` enum in proto, update `src/shared/ExtensionMessage.ts`, update `src/shared/proto-conversions/cline-message.ts`, update `webview-ui/src/components/chat/ChatRow.tsx`
+
+## Modifying System Prompt
+**Read these first:** `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/README.md`, `tools/README.md`, `__tests__/README.md`
+
+System prompt is modular: **components** (reusable sections) + **variants** (model-specific configs) + **templates** (with `{{PLACEHOLDER}}` resolution).
+
+**Key directories:**
+- `components/` - Shared sections: `rules.ts`, `capabilities.ts`, `editing_files.ts`, etc.
+- `variants/` - Model-specific: `generic/`, `next-gen/`, `xs/`, `gpt-5/`, `gemini-3/`, `hermes/`, `glm/`, etc.
+- `templates/` - Template engine and placeholder definitions
+
+**Variant tiers (ask user which to modify):**
+- **Next-gen** (Claude 4, GPT-5, Gemini 2.5): `next-gen/`, `native-next-gen/`, `native-gpt-5/`, `native-gpt-5-1/`, `gemini-3/`, `gpt-5/`
+- **Standard** (default fallback): `generic/`
+- **Local/small models**: `xs/`, `hermes/`, `glm/`
+
+**How overrides work:** Variants can override components via `componentOverrides` in their `config.ts`, or provide a custom template in `template.ts` (e.g., `next-gen/template.ts` exports `rules_template`). If no override, the shared component from `components/` is used.
+
+**Example: Adding a rule to RULES section**
+1. Check if variant overrides rules: look for `rules_template` in `variants/*/template.ts` or `componentOverrides.RULES` in `config.ts`
+2. If shared: modify `components/rules.ts`
+3. If overridden: modify that variant's template
+4. XS variant is special—has heavily condensed inline content in `template.ts`
+
+**After any changes, regenerate snapshots:**
+```bash
+UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=true npm run test:unit
+```
+Snapshots live in `__tests__/__snapshots__/`. Tests validate across model families and context variations (browser, MCP, focus chain).

-## Debug Harness: clear inherited VSCode/Electron env vars before launching
-
-The debug harness (`apps/vscode/src/dev/debug-harness/server.ts`) launches a child
-VSCode via Playwright's `_electron.launch({ env: { ...process.env, ... } })`. If you
-run the harness from a process that was itself spawned by VSCode (e.g. the Cline
-extension host, an integrated terminal, or an agent running inside VSCode), the
-parent's VSCode/Electron env vars leak into the child and break the launch.
-
-The fatal one is **`ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE=1`**: it makes the child VSCode binary run
-as plain Node, so it rejects every VSCode CLI flag. Symptom:
-
-```
-.../Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/MacOS/Code: bad option: --extensionDevelopmentPath=...
-Error: Process failed to launch!   (Playwright _electron.launch)
-```
-
-This is NOT the macOS Playwright flakiness mentioned in the harness README — it's
-env inheritance. Fix: strip the inherited vars before starting the harness:
-
-```bash
-env -u ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE -u ELECTRON_NO_ATTACH_CONSOLE \
-    -u VSCODE_CLI -u VSCODE_CODE_CACHE_PATH -u VSCODE_CRASH_REPORTER_PROCESS_TYPE \
-    -u VSCODE_CWD -u VSCODE_ESM_ENTRYPOINT -u VSCODE_HANDLES_UNCAUGHT_ERRORS \

-    bun src/dev/debug-harness/server.ts --auto-launch --skip-build
-```
-
-Check your own env with `env | grep -iE 'electron|vscode_'` first; `ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE=1`
-present means you must scrub before launching.
-
-Other harness notes confirmed in practice:
-- The extension host is **ESM** (`VSCODE_ESM_ENTRYPOINT`), so `ext.evaluate` has no
-  `require` and module-internal functions aren't reachable as globals. To inspect
-  internal builders (e.g. `buildBedrockProviderConfig`), set a breakpoint with
-  `ext.set_breakpoint` and read locals via `ext.evaluate` with the paused `callFrameId`
-  — don't try to `require()` the bundle.
-- `web.evaluate` wraps the expression as a single returned expression; multi-statement
-  snippets must be an IIFE `(() => { ...; return x; })()`, otherwise you get
-  `SyntaxError: Unexpected token ';'`.
-- Webview settings inputs are `vscode-text-field` web components with debounced React
-  onChange. Setting `.value` + dispatching events via `web.evaluate` is unreliable for
-  some fields; focus the inner shadow `input` then use real keystrokes (`ui.type` +
-  `ui.press Tab`, or click the dropdown option) to make the value persist.

-webview still talks gRPC; the adapter translates between gRPC handlers and SDK
-calls. See `apps/vscode/src/dev/debug-harness/README.md` for the debug harness.
-
-## Conventions
-
-1. **Look up SDK APIs, don't guess.** Use `kb_search(name="sdk", query="...")`
-   before implementing against an SDK surface.
-2. **Reference the pre-SDK implementation when replacing a module.** Add a
-   `// Replaces classic src/core/... (see origin/main)` header and use
-   `kb_search(name="cline", commit="origin/main")` or
-   `git show origin/main:path` to consult the prior implementation.
-3. **Single entry point.** There is one codepath — the SDK adapter. No
-   `CLINE_SDK` env flag.
-4. **Use `{appBaseUrl}`**, never hardcode `app.cline.bot`.
-5. **Avoid `as` casts.** Use explicit conversion functions with tests. The
-   branded types in `apps/vscode/src/sdk/model-catalog/contracts.ts` exist so
-   casts are unnecessary outside parse/compute boundaries.
-
-## Debug harness
-
-- **Dismiss the Kanban/promo overlay** before any debug harness interaction.
-- **Use the command palette** to navigate tabs in the debug harness.

 # Changelog
 
-## [4.0.0]
+## [4.0.10]
 
 ### 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.
+- Add telemetry to track when Cline reaches the consecutive mistake limit.
+
+## [4.0.9]
+
+### Added
+
+- Add GPT-5.6 ChatGPT subscription models.
 
 ### 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.
+- Soften and shorten the message shown when Cline hits the consecutive mistake limit.
 
 ### 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.
+- Handle cumulative usage snapshots from OpenAI-compatible providers so token counts are no longer over-reported.
+- Load skills from files saved as UTF-8 with a byte-order mark (BOM).
+
+## [4.0.8]
+
+### Added
+
+- Add more models to the GCP Vertex provider, plus a free-form entry option in the model dropdown for specifying custom Vertex models.
+
+## [4.0.7]
+
+### Added
+
+- Add a ClinePass limit-reached error with a one-click option to switch to Cline usage-based billing.
+- Allow selecting Cline free models on the ClinePass provider, organized into Subscribed and Free tabs with model descriptions.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Refine ClinePass onboarding and provider settings copy, and open the "learn more" link via the in-app URL handler.
+- Remove the Cline model picker recommendation copy.
+
+### Removed
+
+- Remove all references to GLM 5.1.
+
+## [4.0.6]
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Generalize the model capability warning so it applies more broadly.
+
+## [4.0.5]
+
+### Added
+
+- Add support for Claude Sonnet 5 across the Anthropic, Bedrock, Vertex, Claude Code, SAP AI Core, OpenRouter, and Vercel AI Gateway providers, including model picker and recommended-model updates.
+
+## [4.0.4]
+
+### Changed
+
+- Fully remove the ClinePass feature flag so ClinePass is available everywhere in the UI — onboarding, settings, the welcome promo banner, and the credit-limit "Switch to ClinePass" action.
+
+## [4.0.3]
+
+### Changed
+
+- Enable the ClinePass provider for all users by removing the feature-flag gate that previously fell back to the standard Cline provider.
+
+## [4.0.2]
+
+### Added
+
+- Add reasoning effort support (including `xhigh`) for DeepSeek thinking models.
+- Improve the ClinePass provider experience with clearer reasoning controls and model selection.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Show reasoning effort controls for ClinePass models and align ClinePass model resolution with the rest of the provider.
+- Prefer canonical Cline Z.ai model ids and polish ClinePass and Z.ai model metadata.
+- Fix environment variable replacement in the webview.
+- Default focus chain settings in webview state so the toggle reflects the correct value on load.
+
+## [4.0.1]
+
+### Changed
+
+- Roll the stable VS Code extension back to the pre-SDK-migration codebase to resolve regressions reported in 4.0.0. This release ships the 3.89.2 extension code under a higher version number so existing 4.0.0 users receive the update. SDK-migration work continues separately on `main`.

 # Cline CLI Changelog
 
-## 3.0.40
-
-- Added a manual API key escape hatch for Cline OAuth providers, so you can enter a key by hand from settings
-- Fixed provider config not reloading when switching models
-- Fixed auto-update failing to detect Bun global installs after symlink resolution
-- Fixed unexpected logouts caused by transient network or server errors during token refresh
-- The ClinePass usage-limit error is now surfaced clearly when you hit the limit
-- Session id is now preserved when continuing within the same session
-- Hardened context compaction budget handling
-
-## 3.0.39
-
-- You can now select Cline free models on the ClinePass provider in the model picker
-- Removed the retired ClinePass GLM 5.1 model
-- Fixed OpenAI Codex model metadata under the GPT Subscription provider
-- `str_replace` edits now report accurate diffs
-- Fixed context compaction so canonical session history is preserved
-- The detached hub daemon now emits telemetry, and telemetry identity now includes `user_id`
-- Cline provider requests now send versioned client-identity headers
-
-## 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
