+We have a changeset PR that automatically generated as new unreleased PRs are merged into main, the PR is always called "Changeset version bump" and the author is github-actions. 
+
+The Changeset PR description looks something like this:
+
+<changeset-pr-description>
+This PR was opened by the [Changesets release](https://github.com/changesets/action) GitHub action. When you're ready to do a release, you can merge this and publish to npm yourself or [setup this action to publish automatically](https://github.com/changesets/action#with-publishing). If you're not ready to do a release yet, that's fine, whenever you add more changesets to main, this PR will be updated.

+</changeset-pr-description>
+
+The changeset pr is ALWAYS on the following branch: `changeset-release/main`.
+
+I have the `gh` command line tool set up and authenticated, so you have everything you need.
+
+The first step is to get the full diff from the changeset PR to look at the changes that were automatically made to the `CHANGELOG.md` file. By default it will automatically add a new section to the changelog.md file with the new version. The problem with the automatically generated section is that it just takes the text that the developers threw into their changeset files for each corresponding PR, and they can be pretty vague and bad. Additionally there's some stuff that is totally irrelevant for the end user, like minor refactoring changes. So I manually typically go in and update this section to be a proper changelog that will show up in our patchnotes. You can look at how the rest of the file is done because those are all good examples of us updating this to use good language for the end user. We usually put new features up top (and the most exciting flagship features at the very top), and then bug fixes/improvements at the bottom. Having some basic organization to the ordering of the bullet points by content is nice. But use common sense. 
+
+To handle this process effectively, do the following:
+
+For each of the automatically generated bullet points in the Changelog.md, you should
+1. Take the commit hash at the start of the bullet point, and use the `gh` command line tool find the PR that it was associated with. 
+2. Use the `gh` command to get the PR title/description/discussion to understand the context surrounding the PR.
+3. Use the `gh` command line tool to get the full PR diff to fully understand the changes made in the code.
+4. Synthesize that knowledge to determine (a) whether or not this change is relevant to end users and (b) what the text & ordering of the line should be.  
+5. Update the `CHANGELOG.md` accordingly 
+
+Do this for every single item in the list from the autogenerated bullet points. We want to be diligent and have a full understanding of every feature so we can make the best changelog ever!
+
+Here are some principles for good changelogs from keepchangelog.com, a handy guide:
+
+<keepachangelog-pinciples-for-good-changelogs>
+### Guiding Principles
+- Changelogs are for humans, not machines.
+- There should be an entry for every single version.
+- The same types of changes should be grouped.
+- The latest version comes first.
+
+### Bullet points in the changelog should follow these principles:
+- Types of changes
+- Added for new features.
+- Changed for changes in existing functionality.
+- Deprecated for soon-to-be removed features.
+- Removed for now removed features.
+- Fixed for any bug fixes.
+- Security in case of vulnerabilities.
+</keepachangelog-pinciples-for-good-changelogs>
+
+Lastly, when developers make a PR, they typically make a changeset. And they have 3 options when making the changeset:
+
+1. Patch
+2. Minor
+3. Major
+
+Sometimes they label something as minor when really it should just be a patch. Or vice versa. Because of this, the automatic version bump may be incorrect. So when starting out this workflow, you should use the <ask_followup_question> tool to confirm with me whether or not this should be a patch bump (show the old version number and what the proposed new version number would be) or a minor bump. Part of the release process is making sure the version in package.json that is automatically changed actually corresponds with what we decided the bump should actually be based on the features. ALL these modifications happen in the `changeset-release/main` branch btw. 
+
+<important_note>
+Before doing any of this, make sure you check out the `changeset-release/main` and pull the most recent up to date changes. Then perform all this work in that branch. 
+
+New announcement banners should ONLY be made for minor version bumps or higher. That's another reason why double checking if the changelog warrants the bump is important.
+
+Also, SUPER important: For any external contributors that aren't part of the cline github organization, we always want to add a (Thanks @username!) at the end of the changelog to attribute them properly. We're an open source project and it's ethical to do this.
+</important_note>
+
+Once the changelog looks good, and the version number looks good, we gotta double check that the version number in the changelog has the brackets around it. And as a final step, double check the package.json version number matches the latest number in the changelog. And as the ultimate final step we run `npm run install:all` to make sure the package version number permiates through the lock file.

+# Cline Release Process - Detailed Sequence of Steps
+
+## Before Starting
+1. First, examine the changeset PR without checking it out:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr view changeset-release/main
+   ```
+
+2. View the PR diff to see the auto-generated CHANGELOG.md changes:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr diff changeset-release/main > changeset-diff.txt
+   cat changeset-diff.txt | grep -A 50 "CHANGELOG.md"
+   ```
+
+## Initial Setup
+3. Once you're ready to start, checkout and update the changeset release branch:
+   ```bash
+   git checkout changeset-release/main
+   git pull origin changeset-release/main
+   ```
+
+## Analyzing Each Change
+4. For each commit hash in the auto-generated changelog entries:
+
+   a. Find the PR number associated with a commit hash:
+      ```bash
+      gh pr list --search "<commit-hash>" --state merged
+      ```
+   
+   b. Get PR details for better context:
+      ```bash
+      gh pr view <PR-number>
+      ```
+   
+   c. Check if the contributor is external to determine if attribution is needed:
+      ```bash
+      # Extract username from PR
+      USERNAME=$(gh pr view <PR-number> --json author --jq .author.login)
+      
+      # Check if user is a member of the Cline organization
+	  # this command is a bit finnicky, but it 100% works. 
+	  # if you see a `Error executing command: The command ran successfully, but we couldn't capture its output. Please proceed accordingly.` error, just retry it until you actually get the output
+	  # don't make any assumptions, just retry the command to actually get the output and determine if they're external or not.
+	  # no output means they are an external contributor, otherwise if there is output they are an internal contributor (part of our github org)
+      gh api "orgs/cline/members" --jq "map(.login)" | grep -i "pashpashpash"
+      ```
+   
+   d. View the full PR diff to understand code changes:
+      ```bash
+      gh pr diff <PR-number> > pr-diff-<PR-number>.txt
+      cat pr-diff-<PR-number>.txt
+      ```
+
+## Updating the Changelog
+5. Based on PR analysis, update the CHANGELOG.md with user-friendly descriptions:
+   - Use the `<replace_in_file>` tool to edit the CHANGELOG.md file
+   - Group by feature type (Added, Changed, Fixed)
+   - Put most exciting features at the top
+   - Move bug fixes and small improvements to the bottom
+   - Use clear, end-user focused language
+   - For external contributors, add attribution at the end of the relevant entry: `(Thanks @username!)`
+
+## Version Number Verification
+6. Confirm the version bump is appropriate:
+   - Check package.json to verify the auto-generated version number:
+     ```bash
+     cat package.json | grep "\"version\""
+     ```
+   - If the feature set doesn't warrant a minor bump, use the `<replace_in_file>` tool to modify package.json
+
+7. Ensure the version in CHANGELOG.md has brackets around it:
+   ```
+   ## [3.16.0]
+   ```
+
+## Creating the Announcement (for minor/major versions only)
+8. If this is a minor version bump, create/update the announcement component:
+   - Use the `<replace_in_file>` tool to edit the src/views/components/announcement.tsx file
+   - Update the highlights based on key features
+   - Move previous version highlights to the "Previous Updates" section
+   - Use the previous announcement components as reference for structure
+
+## Finalizing the Release
+9. Update dependencies with the new version number:
+   ```bash
+   npm run install:all
+   ```
+
+10. Commit your changes:
+    ```bash
+    git add CHANGELOG.md package.json package-lock.json src/views/components/announcement.tsx
+    git commit -m "Update CHANGELOG.md and announcement for version 3.16.0"
+    ```
+
+11. Push your changes to the changeset branch:
+    ```bash
+    git push origin changeset-release/main
+    ```
+
+12. Check that your changes pushed successfully:
+    ```bash
+    git status
+    ```

+# GitHub PR Review Process - Detailed Sequence of Steps
+
+## 1. Gather PR Information
+1. Get the PR title, description, and comments:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr view <PR-number> --json title,body,comments
+   ```
+
+2. Get the full diff of the PR:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr diff <PR-number>
+   ```
+
+## 2. Understand the Context
+1. Identify which files were modified in the PR:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr view <PR-number> --json files
+   ```
+
+2. Examine the original files in the main branch to understand the context:
+   ```xml
+   <read_file>
+   <path>path/to/file</path>
+   </read_file>
+   ```
+
+3. For specific sections of a file, you can use search_files:
+   ```xml
+   <search_files>
+   <path>path/to/directory</path>
+   <regex>search term</regex>
+   <file_pattern>*.ts</file_pattern>
+   </search_files>
+   ```
+
+## 3. Analyze the Changes
+1. For each modified file, understand:
+   - What was changed
+   - Why it was changed (based on PR description)
+   - How it affects the codebase
+   - Potential side effects
+
+2. Look for:
+   - Code quality issues
+   - Potential bugs
+   - Performance implications
+   - Security concerns
+   - Test coverage
+
+## 4. Ask for User Confirmation
+1. Before making a decision, ask the user if you should approve the PR, providing your assessment and justification:
+   ```xml
+   <ask_followup_question>
+   <question>Based on my review of PR #<PR-number>, I recommend [approving/requesting changes]. Here's my justification:
+   
+   [Detailed justification with key points about the PR quality, implementation, and any concerns]
+   
+   Would you like me to proceed with this recommendation?</question>
+   <options>["Yes, approve the PR", "Yes, request changes", "No, I'd like to discuss further"]</options>
+   </ask_followup_question>
+   ```
+
+## 5. Ask if User Wants a Comment Drafted
+1. After the user decides on approval/rejection, ask if they would like a comment drafted:
+   ```xml
+   <ask_followup_question>
+   <question>Would you like me to draft a comment for this PR that you can copy and paste?</question>
+   <options>["Yes, please draft a comment", "No, I'll handle the comment myself"]</options>
+   </ask_followup_question>
+   ```
+
+2. If the user wants a comment drafted, provide a well-structured comment they can copy:
+   ```
+   Thank you for this PR! Here's my assessment:
+
+   [Detailed assessment with key points about the PR quality, implementation, and any suggestions]
+
+   [Include specific feedback on code quality, functionality, and testing]
+   ```
+
+## 6. Make a Decision
+1. Approve the PR if it meets quality standards:
+   ```bash
+   # For single-line comments:
+   gh pr review <PR-number> --approve --body "Your approval message"
+   
+   # For multi-line comments with proper whitespace formatting:
+   cat << EOF | gh pr review <PR-number> --approve --body-file -
+   Thanks @username for this PR! The implementation looks good.
+
+   I particularly like how you've handled X and Y.
+
+   Great work!
+   EOF
+   ```
+
+2. Request changes if improvements are needed:
+   ```bash
+   # For single-line comments:
+   gh pr review <PR-number> --request-changes --body "Your feedback message"
+   
+   # For multi-line comments with proper whitespace formatting:
+   cat << EOF | gh pr review <PR-number> --request-changes --body-file -
+   Thanks @username for this PR!
+
+   The implementation looks promising, but there are a few things to address:
+
+   1. Issue one
+   2. Issue two
+
+   Please make these changes and we can merge this.
+   EOF
+   ```
+
+   Note: The `cat << EOF | ... --body-file -` approach preserves all whitespace and formatting without requiring temporary files. The `-` parameter tells the command to read from standard input.

+
+<example_review_process>
+# Example PR Review Process
+
+Let's walk through a real example of reviewing PR #3627 which fixes the thinking mode calculation for Claude 3.7 models.
+
+## Step 1: Gather PR Information
+
+```bash
+# Get PR details
+gh pr view 3627 --json title,body,comments
+
+# Get the full diff
+gh pr diff 3627
+```
+
+## Step 2: Understand the Context
+
+```xml
+# Examine the original files to understand what's being changed
+<read_file>
+<path>src/shared/api.ts</path>
+</read_file>
+
+# Look at the ThinkingBudgetSlider component implementation
+<read_file>
+<path>webview-ui/src/components/settings/ThinkingBudgetSlider.tsx</path>
+</read_file>
+
+# Check how thinking mode is currently handled in API providers
+<search_files>
+<path>src/api/providers</path>
+<regex>reasoningOn</regex>
+<file_pattern>*.ts</file_pattern>
+</search_files>
+```
+
+## Step 3: Analyze the Changes
+
+From the PR information and code examination, we can see that:
+
+1. The PR fixes an issue with the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models
+2. Currently, the thinking budget is incorrectly calculated as 80% of maxTokens (8192), resulting in 6553 tokens
+3. Claude 3.7 actually supports a much larger thinking budget (up to 64000 tokens)
+4. The PR adds a `thinkingConfig` property with `maxBudget: 64000` to model definitions
+5. It updates API handlers to use this value when reasoning mode is enabled
+6. It enhances the slider component to calculate max values based on model-specific percentages
+7. Comprehensive tests were added to verify the calculations
+
+## Step 4: Ask for User Confirmation
+
+```xml
+<ask_followup_question>
+<question>Based on my review of PR #3627, I recommend approving this PR. Here's my justification:
+
+1. The PR correctly fixes the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models
+2. It properly implements the thinkingConfig.maxBudget property (64000) for Claude 3.7 models
+3. It applies the appropriate percentage (50%) for the slider calculation
+4. The changes are well-tested with comprehensive unit tests
+5. The implementation is clean and follows the project's coding standards
+6. The PR includes helpful screenshots demonstrating the fix
+
+Would you like me to proceed with approving this PR?</question>
+<options>["Yes, approve the PR", "No, I'd like to discuss further", "Let me review it myself first"]</options>
+</ask_followup_question>
+```
+
+## Step 5: Ask if User Wants a Comment Drafted
+
+```xml
+<ask_followup_question>
+<question>Would you like me to draft a comment for this PR that you can copy and paste?</question>
+<options>["Yes, please draft a comment", "No, I'll handle the comment myself"]</options>
+</ask_followup_question>
+```
+
+## Step 6: Make a Decision
+
+```bash
+# Option 1: Simple one-line comment
+gh pr review 3627 --approve --body "This PR looks good! It correctly fixes the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models."
+
+# Option 2: Multi-line comment with proper whitespace formatting
+cat << EOF | gh pr review 3627 --approve --body-file -
+This PR looks good! It correctly fixes the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models.
+
+I particularly like:
+1. The proper implementation of thinkingConfig.maxBudget property (64000)
+2. The appropriate percentage (50%) for the slider calculation
+3. The comprehensive unit tests
+4. The clean implementation that follows project coding standards
+
+Great work!

+
+<general_guidelines_for_commenting>
+When reviewing a PR, please talk normally and like a friendly reviwer. You should keep it short, and start out by thanking the author of the pr and @ mentioning them. 
+
+Whether or not you approve the PR, you should then give a quick summary of the changes without being too verbose or definitive, staying humble like that this is your understanding of the changes. Kind of how I'm talking to you right now.
+
+If you have any suggestions, or things that need to be changed, request changes instead of approving the PR.
+
+Leaving inline comments in code is good, but only do so if you have something specific to say about the code. And make sure you leave those comments first, and then request changes in the PR with a short comment explaining the overall theme of what you're asking them to change.
+</general_guidelines_for_commenting>
+
+<example_comments_that_i_have_written_before>
+<brief_approve_comment>
+Looks good, though we should make this generic for all providers & models at some point
+</brief_approve_comment>
+<brief_approve_comment>
+Will this work for models that may not match across OR/Gemini? Like the thinking models?
+</brief_approve_comment>
+<approve_comment>
+This looks great! I like how you've handled the global endpoint support - adding it to the ModelInfo interface makes total sense since it's just another capability flag, similar to how we handle other model features.
+
+The filtered model list approach is clean and will be easier to maintain than hardcoding which models work with global endpoints. And bumping the genai library was obviously needed for this to work.
+
+Thanks for adding the docs about the limitations too - good for users to know they can't use context caches with global endpoints but might get fewer 429 errors.
+</approve_comment>
+<requesst_changes_comment>
+This is awesome. Thanks @scottsus.
+
+My main concern though - does this work for all the possible VS Code themes? We struggled with this initially which is why it's not super styled currently. Please test and share screenshots with the different themes to make sure before we can merge
+</request_changes_comment>
+<request_changes_comment>
+Hey, the PR looks good overall but I'm concerned about removing those timeouts. Those were probably there for a reason - VSCode's UI can be finicky with timing.
+
+Could you add back the timeouts after focusing the sidebar? Something like:
+
+```typescript
+await vscode.commands.executeCommand("claude-dev.SidebarProvider.focus")
+await setTimeoutPromise(100)  // Give UI time to update
+visibleWebview = WebviewProvider.getSidebarInstance()
+```
+</request_changes_comment>
+<request_changes_comment>
+Heya @alejandropta thanks for working on this! 
+
+A few notes:
+1 - Adding additional info to the environment variables is fairly problematic because env variables get appended to **every single message**. I don't think this is justifiable for a somewhat niche use case. 
+2 - Adding this option to settings to include that could be an option, but we want our options to be simple and straightforward for new users
+3 - We're working on revisualizing the way our settings page is displayed/organized, and this could potentially be reconciled once that is in and our settings page is more clearly delineated. 
+
+So until the settings page is update, and this is added to settings in a way that's clean and doesn't confuse new users, I don't think we can merge this. Please bear with us.
+</request_changes_comment>
+<request_changes_comment>
+Also, don't forget to add a changeset since this fixes a user-facing bug.
+
+The architectural change is solid - moving the focus logic to the command handlers makes sense. Just don't want to introduce subtle timing issues by removing those timeouts.

+---
+
+### Overview
+
+-   **AWS Bedrock:** A fully managed service that offers access to leading generative AI models (e.g., Anthropic Claude, Amazon Titan) through AWS.\
+    [Learn more about AWS Bedrock](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/what-is-bedrock.html).
+-   **Cline:** A VS Code extension that acts as a coding assistant by integrating with AI models—empowering developers to generate code, debug, and analyze data.
+-   **Enterprise Focus:** This guide is tailored for organizations with established AWS environments (using IAM roles, AWS SSO, AWS Organizations, etc.) to ensure secure and compliant usage.
+
+---
+
+### Step 1: Prepare Your AWS Environment
+
+#### 1.1 Create or Use an IAM Role/User
+
+1. **Sign in to the AWS Management Console:**\
+   [AWS Console](https://aws.amazon.com/console/)
+2. **Access IAM:**
+    - Search for **IAM (Identity and Access Management)** in the AWS Console.
+    - Either create a new IAM user or use your enterprise's AWS SSO to assume a dedicated role for Bedrock access.
+    - [AWS IAM User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/introduction.html)
+
+#### 1.2 Attach the Required Policies
+
+1. **Attach the Managed Policy:**

+    - Specify the correct **AWS Region** (e.g., `us-east-1` or your enterprise-approved region).
+4. **Select a Model:**
+    - Choose an on-demand model (e.g., **anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022-v2:0**).
+5. **Save and Test:**
+    - Click **Done/Save** to apply your settings.
+    - Test the integration by sending a simple prompt (e.g., "Generate a Python function to check if a number is prime.").
+
+---
+
+### Step 4: Security, Monitoring, and Best Practices
+
+1. **Secure Access:**
+    - Prefer AWS SSO/federated roles over long-lived IAM credentials.
+    - [AWS IAM Best Practices](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/best-practices.html)
+2. **Enhance Network Security:**
+    - Consider setting up [AWS PrivateLink](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/endpoint-services-overview.html) to securely connect to Bedrock.

+title: "LiteLLM & Cline (using Codestral)"
+description: "Learn how to set up and run LiteLLM with Cline using the Codestral model. This guide covers Docker setup, configuration, and integration with Cline."
+---
+
+### Using LiteLLM with Cline
+
+This guide demonstrates how to run a demo for LiteLLM starting with the Codestral model for use with Cline.
+
+#### Prerequisites
+
+-   [Docker CLI or Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/get-started/) installed to run the LiteLLM image locally
+-   For this example config: A Codestral API Key (different from the Mistral API Keys)
+
+#### Setup
+
+1. **Create a `.env` file and fill in the appropriate field**
+
+    ```bash
+    # Tip: Use the following command to generate a random alphanumeric key:
+    # openssl rand -base64 32 | tr -dc 'A-Za-z0-9' | head -c 32
+    LITELLM_MASTER_KEY=YOUR_LITELLM_MASTER_KEY
+    CODESTRAL_API_KEY=YOUR_CODESTRAL_API_KEY
+    ```
+
+    _Note: Although this is limited to localhost, it's a good practice set LITELLM_MASTER_KEY to something secure_
+
+2. **Configuration**
+
+    We'll need to create a `config.yaml` file to contain our LiteLLM configuration. In this case we'll just have one model, 'codestral-latest' and label it 'codestral'
+
+    ```yaml
+    model_list:
+        - model_name: codestral
+          litellm_params:
+              model: codestral/codestral-latest
+              api_key: os.environ/CODESTRAL_API_KEY
+    ```
+
+#### Running the Demo
+
+1. **Startup the LiteLLM docker container**
+
+    ```bash
+    docker run \
+        --env-file .env \
+        -v $(pwd)/config.yaml:/app/config.yaml \
+        -p 127.0.0.1:4000:4000 \
+        ghcr.io/berriai/litellm:main-latest \
+        --config /app/config.yaml --detailed_debug
+    ```
+
+2. **Setup Cline**
+
+    Once the LiteLLM server is up and running you can set it up in Cline:
+
+    - Base URL should be `http://0.0.0.0:4000/v1`
+    - API Key should be the one you set in `.env` for LITELLM_MASTER_KEY
+    - Model ID is `codestral` or whatever you named it under `config.yaml`

+-   **Other VS Code Extensions:** Any extension that implements the Language Model API.
+
+**Important Note:** This integration is currently in an experimental phase and might not perform as anticipated. Its functionality relies on other extensions correctly implementing the VS Code Language Model API.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+-   **VS Code:** The Language Model API is accessible via VS Code (it is not currently supported by Cursor).
+-   **A Language Model Provider Extension:** An extension that furnishes a language model is required. Examples include:
+    -   **GitHub Copilot:** With a Copilot subscription, the GitHub Copilot and GitHub Copilot Chat extensions can serve as model providers.
+    -   **Alternative Extensions:** Explore the VS Code Marketplace for extensions mentioning "Language Model API" or "lm". Other experimental options may be available.
+
+### Configuration Steps
+
+1.  **Access Cline Settings:** Click the gear icon (⚙️) located in the Cline panel.
+2.  **Choose Provider:** Select "VS Code LM API" from the "API Provider" dropdown menu.
+3.  **Select Model:** The "Language Model" dropdown will (eventually) populate with available models. The naming convention is `vendor/family`. For instance, if Copilot is active, you might encounter options such as:
+    -   `copilot - claude-3.5-sonnet`
+    -   `copilot - o3-mini`
+    -   `copilot - o1-ga`
+    -   `copilot - gemini-2.0-flash`
+
+### Current Limitations
+
+-   **Experimental API Status:** The VS Code Language Model API is still under active development. Anticipate potential changes and instability.
+-   **Dependency on Extensions:** This feature is entirely contingent on other extensions making models available. Cline does not directly control the list of accessible models.
+-   **Restricted Functionality:** The VS Code Language Model API might not encompass all features available through other API providers (e.g., image input capabilities, streaming responses, detailed usage metrics).
+-   **No Direct Cost Management:** Users are subject to the pricing structures and terms of service of the extension providing the model. Cline cannot directly monitor or regulate associated costs.
+-   **GitHub Copilot Rate Throttling:** When employing the VS Code LM API with GitHub Copilot, be mindful that GitHub may enforce rate limits on Copilot usage. These limitations are governed by GitHub, not Cline.
+
+### Troubleshooting Tips
+
+-   **Models Not Appearing:**
+    -   Confirm that VS Code is installed.
+    -   Verify that a language model provider extension (e.g., GitHub Copilot, GitHub Copilot Chat) is installed and enabled.
+    -   If utilizing Copilot, ensure you have previously sent a Copilot Chat message using the desired model.
+-   **Unexpected Operation:** Should you encounter unforeseen behavior, it is likely an issue stemming from the underlying Language Model API or the provider extension. Consider reporting the problem to the developers of the provider extension.

+title: "Cloud Provider Integration"
+---
+
+Cline supports major cloud providers like AWS Bedrock and Google's Cloud Vertex; whichever your team currently uses is appropriate, and there's no need to change providers to utilize Cline's features.
+
+For the purpose of this document, we assume your organization will use cloud-based frontier models. Cloud inference providers offer cutting-edge capabilities and the flexibility to select models which best suit your needs.
+
+Certain scenarios may warrant using local models, including handling highly sensitive data, applications requiring consistent low-latency responses, or compliance with strict data sovereignty requirements. If your team needs to utilize local models, see [Running Local Models ](/running-models-locally/read-me-first.mdx)with Cline.
+
+---
+
+## AWS Bedrock Setup Guides
+
+#### [IAM Security Best Practices](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/best-practices.html) (For administrators)
+
+#### [AWS Bedrock setup for Legacy IAM (AWS Credentials)](/custom-model-configs/aws-bedrock-with-credentials-authentication.mdx)
+
+#### [AWS Bedrock setup for SSO token (AWS Profile)](/custom-model-configs/aws-bedrock-with-profile-authentication.mdx)
+
+#### VPC Endpoint Setup
+
+To protect your team's data, Cline supports VPC (Virtual Private Cloud) endpoints, which create private connections between your data and AWS Bedrock. AWS VPCs enhance security by eliminating the need for public IP addresses, network gateways, or complex firewall rules—essentially creating a private highway for data that bypasses the public internet entirely. By keeping traffic within AWS's private network, teams also benefit from lower latency and more predictable performance when accessing services like AWS Bedrock or custom APIs. For those working with confidential information or operating in highly regulated industries like healthcare or finance, VPCs offers the perfect balance between the accessibility of cloud services and the security of private infrastructure.
+
+---
+
+1. Consult the [AWS guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/vpc-interface-endpoints.html) to creating VPC endpoints. This document specifies pre-requisites and describes the syntax used for creating VPC endpoints.
+2. Follow the directions for [creating a VPC endpoint](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/privatelink/create-interface-endpoint.html#create-interface-endpoint-aws) in the AWS console. The image below pertains to steps 4 and 5 of the AWS guide linked above.

+
+## Building Custom Instructions for Teams
+
+**Creating standardized project instructions ensures that all team members work within consistent guidelines. Start by documenting your project's technical foundation, then identify which information needs to be included in the instructions. The exact scope will vary depending on your team's needs, but generally it's best to provide as much information as possible. By creating comprehensive instructions that all team members follow, you establish a shared understanding of how code should be written, tested, and deployed across your project, resulting in more maintainable and consistent software.**
+
+---
+
+Here are a few topics and examples to consider for your team's custom instructions:
+
+1. **Testing framework and specific commands**
+    - "All components must include Jest tests with at least 85% coverage. Run tests using `npm run test:coverage` before submitting any pull request."
+2. **Explicit library preferences**
+    - "Use React Query for data fetching and state management. Avoid Redux unless specifically required for complex global state. For styling, use Tailwind CSS with our custom theme configuration found in `src/styles/theme.js.`"
+3. **Where to find documentation**
+    - "All API documentation is available in our internal Notion workspace under 'Engineering > API Reference'. For component usage examples, refer to our Storybook instance at `https://storybook.internal.company.com`"
+4. **Which MCP servers to use, and for which purposes**
+    - "For database operations, use the Postgres MCP server with credentials stored in 1Password under 'Development > Database'. For deployments, use the AWS MCP server which requires the deployment role from IAM. Refer to `docs/mcp-setup.md` for configuration instructions."
+5. **Coding conventions specific to your project**
+    - "Name all React components using PascalCase and all helper functions using camelCase. Place components in the `src/components` directory organized by feature, not by type. Always use TypeScript interfaces for prop definitions."

+title: "MCP Servers"
+---
+
+**Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers expand Cline's capabilities by providing standardized access to external data sources and executable functions. By implementing MCP servers, LLM tools can dynamically retrieve and incorporate relevant information from both local and remote data sources. This capability ensures that the models operate with the most current and contextually appropriate data, improving the accuracy and relevance of their outputs.**
+
+---
+
+### Secure Architecture Fundamentals
+
+MCP servers follow a client-server architecture where hosts (LLM applications like Cline) initiate connections through a transport layer to MCP servers. This architecture inherently provides security benefits as it maintains clear separation between components. Enterprise deployments should focus on the proper implementation of this architecture to ensure secure operations, particularly regarding the message exchange patterns and connection lifecycle management. For MCP architecture details, see [MCP Architecture](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/concepts/architecture), and for latest specifications, see [MCP Specifications](https://spec.modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2024-11-05/).
+
+### Transport Layer Security
+
+For enterprise environments, selecting the appropriate transport mechanism is crucial. While stdio transport works efficiently for local processes, HTTP with Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport requires additional security measures. TLS should be used for all remote connections whenever possible. This is especially important when MCP servers are deployed across different network segments within corporate infrastructure.
+
+### Message Validation and Access Control
+
+The MCP architecture defines standard error codes and message types (Requests, Results, Errors, and Notifications), providing a structured framework for secure communication. Security teams should consider message validation, sanitizing inputs, checking message size limits, and verifying JSON-RPC format. Additionally, implementing resource protection through access controls, path validation, and request rate limiting helps prevent potential abuse of MCP server capabilities.
+
+### Monitoring and Compliance
+
+For enterprise compliance requirements, implementing comprehensive logging of protocol events, message flows, and errors is essential. The MCP architecture supports diagnostic capabilities including health checks, connection state monitoring, and resource usage tracking. Organizations should extend these capabilities to meet their specific compliance needs, particularly for audit trails of all MCP server interactions and resource access patterns.
+
+By leveraging the client-server design of the MCP architecture and implementing appropriate security controls at each layer, enterprises can safely integrate MCP servers into their environments while maintaining their security posture and meeting regulatory requirements.

+
+## Enterprise Security with Cline
+
+#### Cline addresses enterprise security concerns through its unique client-side architecture that prioritizes data privacy, secure cloud integration, and transparent operations. Below is a comprehensive overview of how Cline maintains robust security measures for enterprise environments.
+
+---
+
+### Client-Side Architecture
+
+Cline operates exclusively as a client-side VSCode extension with zero server-side components. This fundamental design choice ensures that your code and data remain within your secure environment at all times. Unlike traditional AI assistants that send data to external servers for processing, Cline connects directly to your chosen cloud provider's AI endpoints, keeping all sensitive information within your infrastructure boundaries.
+
+<Frame>
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/cline-arch.png"
+		alt="Cline's relationship to local and remote assets"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+### Data Privacy Commitment
+
+Cline implements a strict zero data retention policy, meaning your intellectual property never leaves your secure environment. The extension does not collect, store, or transmit your code to any central servers. This approach significantly reduces potential attack vectors that might otherwise be introduced through data transmission to third-party systems. Telemetry collection is optional and requires explicit consent.
+
+### Cloud Provider Integration
+
+Enterprise teams can access cutting-edge AI models through their existing cloud deployments. Cline supports seamless integration with:
+
+-   AWS Bedrock
+-   Google Cloud Vertex AI
+-   Microsoft Azure
+
+These integrations utilize your organization's existing security credentials, including native IAM role assumption for AWS. This ensures that all AI processing occurs within your corporate cloud environment, maintaining compliance with your established security protocols.
+
+### Open-Source Transparency
+
+Cline's codebase is completely open-source, allowing for comprehensive security auditing by your internal teams. This transparency enables security professionals to verify exactly how the extension functions and confirm that it adheres to your organization's security requirements. Organizations can review the code to ensure it aligns with their security policies before deployment.
+
+### Controlled Modifications
+
+The extension implements safeguards against unauthorized changes to your codebase. Cline requires explicit user approval for all file modifications and terminal commands, preventing accidental or unwanted alterations. This approval-based workflow maintains the integrity of your projects while still providing AI assistance.
+
+### Enterprise Deployment Support
+
+For organizations with strict security review processes, Cline provides comprehensive documentation including detailed deployment diagrams, sequence diagrams illustrating all data flows, and complete security posture documentation. These materials facilitate thorough security reviews and help demonstrate compliance with enterprise data handling standards and regulations.
+
+### Access Control
+
+Enterprise editions of Cline (planned for Q2 2025) will include centralized administration features that allow organizations to:
+
+-   Manage user access with customizable permission levels
+-   Provision accounts with corporate credentials
+-   Immediately revoke access when needed
+-   Control which AI providers and LLM endpoints can be used
+-   Deploy standardized settings across the organization
+-   Prevent unauthorized use of personal API keys
+
+### Compliance and Governance
+
+Cline's architecture supports compliance with data sovereignty requirements and enterprise data handling regulations. The planned Enterprise Complete edition will further enhance governance with detailed audit logging, compliance reporting, and automated policy enforcement mechanisms.
+
+By combining client-side processing, direct cloud provider integration, and transparent operations, Cline offers enterprise teams a secure way to leverage AI assistance while maintaining strict control over their sensitive code and data.

+---
+
+### The `new_task` Tool & Context Management Strategies
+
+#### Overview
+
+Cline includes a powerful internal tool, `new_task`, designed to help manage workflow continuity and context preservation, especially during complex or long-running tasks. This tool, combined with Cline's awareness of its own context window usage and the flexibility of `.clinerules`, enables sophisticated strategies for breaking down work and ensuring seamless transitions between task sessions.
+
+Understanding the core capabilities and how they interact with custom rules is key to leveraging this feature effectively.
+
+#### Core Capabilities
+
+Two fundamental capabilities enable advanced context management:
+
+1. **The `new_task` Tool:**
+    - **Function:** Allows Cline, upon user approval, to end the current task session and immediately start a new one.
+    - **Context Preloading:** Crucially, Cline can **preload** this new task session with specific context provided within the tool's `<context>` block. This context can be anything Cline or a `.clinerules` file defines – summaries, code snippets, next steps, project state, etc.
+2. **Context Window Awareness:**
+    - **Tracking:** Cline internally tracks the percentage of its available context window currently being used during a task.
+    - **Visibility:** This information is visible in the `environment_details` provided to Cline in its prompt.
+
+#### Using the `/newtask` Slash Command
+
+As a quick alternative to Cline suggesting the `newtask` tool or defining complex rules, you can directly initiate the process using a Slash Command.
+
+-   **How:** Simply type `/newtask` in the chat input field.
+-   **Action:** Cline will propose creating a new task, typically suggesting context based on the current session (similar to its default behavior when using the tool). You will still get the `ask_followup_question` prompt to confirm and potentially modify the context before the new task is created.
+-   **Benefit:** Provides a fast, user-initiated way to leverage the `new_task` functionality for branching explorations or managing long sessions without waiting for Cline to suggest it.
+
+<Note>
+	For more details on using the `/newtask` slash command, see the [New Task Command](/features/slash-commands/new-task)
+	documentation.
+</Note>
+
+#### Default Behavior (Without `.clinerules`)
+
+By default, without specific `.clinerules` dictating its behavior:
+
+-   **Tool Availability:** The `new_task` tool exists, and Cline _can_ choose to use it.
+-   **Context Awareness:** Cline _is_ aware of its context usage percentage.
+-   **No Automatic Trigger:** Cline **will not** automatically initiate a task handoff _solely_ based on context usage reaching a specific percentage (like 50%). The decision to suggest using `new_task` comes from the AI model's reasoning based on the overall task progress and prompt instructions.
+-   **Basic Context Preloading:** If `new_task` is used without specific rules defining the `<context>` block structure, Cline will attempt to preload relevant information based on its current understanding (e.g., a basic summary of progress and next steps), but this may be less comprehensive than a rule-driven approach.
+
+#### The Power of `.clinerules`: Enabling Custom Workflows
+
+While the core capabilities exist by default, the true power, automation, and customization emerge when you combine `new_task` and context awareness with custom workflows defined in `.clinerules`. This allows you to precisely control _when_ and _how_ Cline manages context and task continuity.
+
+Key benefits of using `.clinerules` with `new_task`:
+
+-   **Automated Context Management:** Define rules to automatically trigger handoffs at specific context percentages (e.g., >50%, >70%) or token counts, ensuring optimal performance and preventing context loss.
+-   **Model-Specific Optimization:** Tailor handoff triggers based on known thresholds for different LLMs (e.g., trigger earlier for models known to degrade past a certain token count).
+-   **Intelligent Breakpoints:** Instruct Cline via rules to find logical stopping points (e.g., after completing a function or test) _after_ a context threshold is passed, ensuring cleaner handoffs.
+-   **Structured Task Decomposition:** Use Plan Mode to define subtasks, then use `.clinerules` to have Cline automatically create a new task via `new_task` upon completing each subtask, preloading the context for the _next_ subtask.
+-   **Custom Context Packaging:** Mandate the exact structure and content of the `<context>` block in `.clinerules` for highly detailed and consistent handoffs (see example below).
+-   **Improved Memory Persistence:** Use `new_task` context blocks as a primary, integrated way to persist information across sessions, potentially replacing or supplementing file-based memory systems.
+-   **Workflow Automation:** Define rules for specific scenarios, like always preloading certain setup instructions or project boilerplate when starting tasks of a particular type.
+
+#### Example Rule-Driven Workflow: Task Handoff Process
+
+A common workflow, **driven by specific `.clinerules` like the example below**, involves these steps:
+
+1. **Trigger Identification (Rule-Based):** Cline monitors for handoff points defined in the rules (e.g., context usage > 50%, task completion).
+2. **User Confirmation:** Cline uses `ask_followup_question` to propose creating a new task, often showing the intended context defined by the rules.
+
+    ```xml
+    <ask_followup_question>
+    <question>I've completed [specific accomplishment] and context usage is high (XX%). Would you like me to create a new task to continue with [remaining work], preloading the following context?</question>
+    <options>["Yes, create new task", "Modify context first", "No, continue this session"]</options>
+    </ask_followup_question>
+    ```
+
+3. **User Control:** You can approve, deny, or ask Cline to modify the context before the new task is created.
+4. **Context Packaging (`new_task` Tool):** If approved, Cline uses `new_task`, packaging the context according to the structure mandated by the `.clinerules`.
+5. **New Task Creation:** The current task ends, and a new session begins immediately, preloaded with the specified context.
+
+#### The Handoff Context Block (Rule-Defined Structure)
+
+The effectiveness of rule-driven handoffs depends heavily on how `.clinerules` define the `<context>` block. A comprehensive structure often includes:
+
+-   **`## Completed Work`**: Detailed list of accomplishments, files modified/created, key decisions.
+-   **`## Current State`**: Project status, running processes, key file states.
+-   **`## Next Steps`**: Clear, prioritized list of remaining tasks, implementation details, known challenges.
+-   **`## Reference Information`**: Links, code snippets, patterns, user preferences.
+-   **Actionable Start:** A clear instruction for the immediate next action.
+
+#### Potential Use Cases & Workflows
+
+The flexibility of `new_task` combined with `.clinerules` opens up many possibilities:
+
+-   **Proactive Context Window Management:** Automatically trigger handoffs at specific percentages (e.g., 50%, 70%) or token counts to maintain optimal performance.
+-   **Intelligent Breakpoints:** Instruct Cline to find logical stopping points (e.g., after completing a function or test) _after_ a context threshold is passed, ensuring cleaner handoffs.
+-   **Structured Task Decomposition:** Use Plan Mode to define subtasks, then use `.clinerules` to have Cline automatically create a new task via `new_task` upon completing each subtask.
+-   **Automated Session Summaries:** Configure the `<context>` block to always include a summary of the previous session's key discussion points.
+-   **Preloading Boilerplate/Setup:** Start new tasks related to specific projects preloaded with standard setup instructions or file templates.
+-   **"Memory Bank" Alternative:** Use `new_task` context blocks as the primary way to persist information across sessions, potentially replacing file-based memory systems.
+
+Experimenting with `.clinerules` is encouraged to discover workflows that best suit your needs!
+
+#### Example `.clinerules`: Task Handoff Strategy Guide
+
+Below is an example `.clinerules` file focused specifically on using `new_task` for context window management. **Remember, this is just one specific strategy; the core `new_task` tool can be used differently with other custom rules.**
+
+````markdown
+# You MUST use the `new_task` tool: Task Handoff Strategy Guide
+
+**⚠️ CRITICAL INSTRUCTIONS - YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES ⚠️**
+
+This guide provides **MANDATORY** instructions for effectively breaking down complex tasks and implementing a smooth handoff process between tasks. You **MUST** follow these guidelines to ensure continuity, context preservation, and efficient task completion.
+
+## ⚠️ CONTEXT WINDOW MONITORING - MANDATORY ACTION REQUIRED ⚠️
+
+You **MUST** monitor the context window usage displayed in the environment details. When usage exceeds 50% of the available context window, you **MUST** initiate a task handoff using the `new_task` tool.
+
+Example of context window usage over 50% with a 200K context window:
+
+\`\`\`text
+
+# Context Window Usage
+
+105,000 / 200,000 tokens (53%)
+Model: anthropic/claude-3.7-sonnet (200K context window)
+\`\`\`
+
+**IMPORTANT**: When you see context window usage at or above 50%, you MUST:
+
+1. Complete your current logical step
+2. Use the `ask_followup_question` tool to offer creating a new task
+3. If approved, use the `new_task` tool with comprehensive handoff instructions
+
+## Task Breakdown in Plan Mode - REQUIRED PROCESS
+
+Plan Mode is specifically designed for analyzing complex tasks and breaking them into manageable subtasks. When in Plan Mode, you **MUST**:
+
+### 1. Initial Task Analysis - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** begin by thoroughly understanding the full scope of the user's request
+-   **MUST** identify all major components and dependencies of the task
+-   **MUST** consider potential challenges, edge cases, and prerequisites
+
+### 2. Strategic Task Decomposition - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** break the overall task into logical, discrete subtasks
+-   **MUST** prioritize subtasks based on dependencies (what must be completed first)
+-   **MUST** aim for subtasks that can be completed within a single session (15-30 minutes of work)
+-   **MUST** consider natural breaking points where context switching makes sense
+
+### 3. Creating a Task Roadmap - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** present a clear, numbered list of subtasks to the user
+-   **MUST** explain dependencies between subtasks
+-   **MUST** provide time estimates for each subtask when possible
+-   **MUST** use Mermaid diagrams to visualize task flow and dependencies when helpful
+
+\`\`\`mermaid
+graph TD
+A[Main Task] --> B[Subtask 1: Setup]
+A --> C[Subtask 2: Core Implementation]
+A --> D[Subtask 3: Testing]
+A --> E[Subtask 4: Documentation]
+B --> C
+C --> D
+\`\`\`
+
+### 4. Getting User Approval - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** ask for user feedback on the proposed task breakdown
+-   **MUST** adjust the plan based on user priorities or additional requirements
+-   **MUST** confirm which subtask to begin with
+-   **MUST** request the user to toggle to Act Mode when ready to implement
+
+## Task Implementation and Handoff Process - MANDATORY PROCEDURES
+
+When implementing tasks in Act Mode, you **MUST** follow these guidelines for effective task handoff:
+
+### 1. Focused Implementation - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** focus on completing the current subtask fully
+-   **MUST** document progress clearly through comments and commit messages
+-   **MUST** create checkpoints at logical completion points
+
+### 2. Recognizing Completion Points - CRITICAL
+
+You **MUST** identify natural handoff points when:
+
+-   The current subtask is fully completed
+-   You've reached a logical stopping point in a larger subtask
+-   The implementation is taking longer than expected and can be continued later
+-   The task scope has expanded beyond the original plan
+-   **CRITICAL**: The context window usage exceeds 50% (e.g., 100,000+ tokens for a 200K context window)
+
+### 3. Initiating the Handoff Process - MANDATORY ACTION
+
+When you've reached a completion point, you **MUST**:
+
+1. Summarize what has been accomplished so far
+2. Clearly state what remains to be done
+3. **MANDATORY**: Use the `ask_followup_question` tool to offer creating a new task:
+
+\`\`\`xml
+<ask_followup_question>
+<question>I've completed [specific accomplishment]. Would you like me to create a new task to continue with [remaining work]?</question>
+<options>["Yes, create a new task", "No, continue in this session", "Let me think about it"]</options>
+</ask_followup_question>
+\`\`\`
+
+### 4. Creating a New Task with Context - REQUIRED ACTION
+
+If the user agrees to create a new task, you **MUST** use the `new_task` tool with comprehensive handoff instructions:
+
+\`\`\`xml
+<new_task>
+<context>
+
+# Task Continuation: [Brief Task Title]
+
+## Completed Work
+
+-   [Detailed list of completed items]
+-   [Include specific files modified/created]
+-   [Note any important decisions made]
+
+## Current State
+
+-   [Description of the current state of the project]
+-   [Any running processes or environment setup]
+-   [Key files and their current state]
+
+## Next Steps
+
+-   [Detailed list of remaining tasks]
+-   [Specific implementation details to address]
+-   [Any known challenges to be aware of]
+
+## Reference Information
+
+-   [Links to relevant documentation]
+-   [Important code snippets or patterns to follow]
+-   [Any user preferences noted during the current session]
+
+Please continue the implementation by [specific next action].
+</context>
+</new_task>
+\`\`\`
+
+### 5. Detailed Context Transfer - MANDATORY COMPONENTS
+
+When creating a new task, you **MUST** always include:
+
+#### Project Context - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** include the overall goal and purpose of the project
+-   **MUST** include key architectural decisions and patterns
+-   **MUST** include technology stack and dependencies
+
+#### Implementation Details - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** list files created or modified in the current session
+-   **MUST** describe specific functions, classes, or components implemented
+-   **MUST** explain design patterns being followed
+-   **MUST** outline testing approach
+
+#### Progress Tracking - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** provide checklist of completed items
+-   **MUST** provide checklist of remaining items
+-   **MUST** note any blockers or challenges encountered
+
+#### User Preferences - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** note coding style preferences mentioned by the user
+-   **MUST** document specific approaches requested by the user
+-   **MUST** highlight priority areas identified by the user
+
+## Best Practices for Effective Handoffs - MANDATORY GUIDELINES
+
+### 1. Maintain Continuity - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** use consistent terminology between tasks
+-   **MUST** reference previous decisions and their rationale
+-   **MUST** maintain the same architectural approach unless explicitly changing direction
+
+### 2. Preserve Context - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** include relevant code snippets in the handoff
+-   **MUST** summarize key discussions from the previous session
+-   **MUST** reference specific files and line numbers when applicable
+
+### 3. Set Clear Next Actions - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** begin the handoff with a clear, actionable next step
+-   **MUST** prioritize remaining tasks
+-   **MUST** highlight any decisions that need to be made
+
+### 4. Document Assumptions - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** clearly state any assumptions made during implementation
+-   **MUST** note areas where user input might be needed
+-   **MUST** identify potential alternative approaches
+
+### 5. Optimize for Resumability - REQUIRED
+
+-   **MUST** structure the handoff so the next session can begin working immediately
+-   **MUST** include setup instructions if environment configuration is needed
+-   **MUST** provide a quick summary at the top for rapid context restoration
+
+## Example Task Handoff
+
+### Example #1 of an effective task handoff:
+
+\`\`\`xml
+<new_task>
+<context>
+
+# Task Continuation: Implement User Authentication System
+
+## Completed Work
+
+-   Created basic Express.js server structure
+-   Implemented MongoDB connection and user schema
+-   Completed user registration endpoint with password hashing
+-   Added input validation using Joi
+-   Created initial test suite for registration endpoint
+
+## Current State
+
+-   Server runs successfully on port 3000
+-   MongoDB connection is established
+-   Registration endpoint (/api/users/register) is fully functional
+-   Test suite passes for all registration scenarios
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. Implement login endpoint (/api/users/login)
+    - Use bcrypt to compare passwords
+    - Generate JWT token upon successful login
+    - Add proper error handling for invalid credentials
+2. Create authentication middleware
+    - Verify JWT tokens
+    - Extract user information
+    - Handle expired tokens
+3. Add protected routes that require authentication
+4. Implement password reset functionality
+
+## Reference Information
+
+-   JWT secret should be stored in .env file
+-   Follow the existing error handling pattern in routes/users.js
+-   User schema is defined in models/User.js
+-   Test patterns are established in tests/auth.test.js
+
+Please continue by implementing the login endpoint following the same patterns established in the registration endpoint.
+</context>
+</new_task>

+
+### Example #2 of an ineffective task handoff:
+
+_(Note: The example provided in the original rules showing "YOLO MODE Implementation" seems less like a direct handoff context block and more like a general status update with future considerations. A true ineffective handoff might lack detail in 'Current State' or 'Next Steps')._
+
+## When to Use Task Handoffs - MANDATORY TRIGGERS
+
+You **MUST** initiate task handoffs in these scenarios:
+
+1. **CRITICAL**: When context window usage exceeds 50% (e.g., 100,000+ tokens for a 200K context window)
+2. **Long-running projects** that exceed a single session
+3. **Complex implementations** with multiple distinct phases
+4. **When context window limitations** are approaching
+5. **When switching focus areas** within a larger project
+6. **When different expertise** might be beneficial for different parts of the task
+
+**⚠️ FINAL REMINDER - CRITICAL INSTRUCTION ⚠️**
+
+You **MUST** monitor the context window usage in the environment details section. When it exceeds 50% (e.g., "105,000 / 200,000 tokens (53%)"), you **MUST** proactively initiate the task handoff process using the `ask_followup_question` tool followed by the `new_task` tool. You MUST use the `new_task` tool.
+
+By strictly following these guidelines, you'll ensure smooth transitions between tasks, maintain project momentum, and provide the best possible experience for users working on complex, multi-session projects.
+
+```markdown
+## User Interaction & Workflow Considerations
+
+-   **Linear Flow:** Currently, using `new_task` creates a linear sequence. The old task ends, and the new one begins. The old task history remains accessible for backtracking.
+-   **User Approval:** You always have control, approving the handoff and having the chance to modify the context Cline proposes to carry forward.
+-   **Flexibility:** The core `new_task` tool is a flexible building block. Experiment with `.clinerules` to create workflows that best suit your needs, whether for strict context management, task decomposition, or other creative uses.

+title: "Remote Browser Support"
+description: "Remote browser support allows Cline to utilize a remote Chrome instance, leveraging authentication tokens and session cookies relevant to certain web development test cases."
+icon: globe-pointer
+---
+
+The Remote Browser feature in Cline allows the AI assistant to interact with web content directly through a controlled browser instance. This enables several powerful capabilities:
+
+-   Viewing and interacting with websites
+-   Testing locally running web applications
+-   Monitoring console logs and errors
+-   Performing browser actions like clicking, typing, and scrolling
+
+## Remote Browser in Cline
+
+### What is Remote Browser?
+
+Remote Browser allows Cline to view and interact with websites directly. This feature enables Cline to:
+
+-   Visit websites and view their content
+-   Test your locally running web applications
+-   Fill out forms and click on elements
+-   Capture screenshots of what it sees
+-   Scroll through pages to see more content
+
+### How to Use Remote Browser
+
+#### Basic Commands
+
+You can ask Cline to use the browser with simple instructions:
+
+-   **Open a website**: "Use the browser to check the website at [https://example.com](https://example.com/)"
+-   **Click on elements**: "Click the login button"
+-   **Type text**: "Type 'Hello world' in the search box"
+-   **Scroll the page**: "Scroll down to see more content"
+-   **Close the browser**: "Close the browser now"
+
+#### Example Workflows
+
+**Testing a Web Application:**
+
+```javascript
+Can you start my React app with "npm start" and then check if it's working properly at http://localhost:3000?
+```
+
+**Analyzing a Website:**
+
+```javascript
+Can you visit https://example.com and tell me what you think about its design and layout?
+```
+
+**Filling Out a Form:**
+
+```javascript
+Please go to https://example.com/contact, fill out the contact form with some test data, and submit it.
+```
+
+### Important Things to Know
+
+#### One Browser at a Time
+
+Cline can only use one browser at a time. If you want to visit a different website, you can either:
+
+-   Ask Cline to navigate to a new URL within the same browser session
+-   Ask Cline to close the current browser and open a new one
+
+#### Browser Must Be Closed Before Using Other Tools
+
+If you want Cline to edit files or run commands after using the browser, you must first ask it to close the browser:
+
+```javascript
+Close the browser and then update the CSS file to fix the alignment issue we saw.
+```
+
+#### What Cline Sees
+
+The browser has a fixed viewport size (900x600 pixels by default), similar to a small laptop screen. Cline will share screenshots after each action so you can see exactly what it sees.
+
+#### Console Logs
+
+Cline captures browser console logs, which can be helpful for debugging web applications. These logs are included with each screenshot.
+
+### Common Use Cases
+
+-   **Web Development**: Test your websites and web applications
+-   **UI/UX Review**: Get feedback on website design and usability
+-   **Content Research**: Have Cline browse websites to gather information
+-   **Form Testing**: Verify that forms work correctly
+-   **Responsive Design Testing**: Check how websites look at different screen sizes
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+-   **If a website doesn't load**: Try providing a direct URL with the http:// or https:// prefix
+-   **If clicking doesn't work**: Try describing the location of the element more precisely
+-   **If the browser seems stuck**: Ask Cline to close the browser and try again
+
+### Using Remote Browser with VS Code in WSL
+
+When running VS Code in WSL, you'll need to configure Windows to allow WSL to connect to Chrome. Follow these steps:
+
+#### Open PowerShell as Administrator and Run:
+
+```powershell
+# Allow WSL to connect to Chrome's debugging port
+New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "WSL Chrome Debug" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 9222 -Protocol TCP -Action Allow
+```
+
+#### Configure Cline in VS Code:
+
+1. Open VS Code settings
+2. Search for "Cline: Chrome Executable Path"
+3. Set the value to the path of your Chrome executable (e.g., `C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe`)
+
+Cline should now be able to use the Remote Browser feature from within WSL.

+
+File mentions let you pull any file from your workspace directly into your conversation with Cline. No more copying and pasting code snippets - just type `@/` and point to the file you need help with.
+
+When you type `@/` in the chat, Cline shows your workspace files. Navigate through folders, select the file you want, and it's instantly available to Cline - complete with all imports, related functions, and surrounding context.
+
+I use file mentions constantly when debugging. Instead of trying to figure out which parts of my code to copy over, I just reference the file directly:
+
+```
+I'm getting this error when my form submits: @terminal
+
+Here's my component: @/src/components/ContactForm.jsx
+
+And the API endpoint: @/src/api/contact.js
+
+What am I missing?
+```
+
+This gives Cline everything it needs - the error message, the component code, and the API endpoint - all without me having to copy anything. Cline can see imports, dependencies, and all the surrounding context that might be causing the issue.
+
+File mentions shine when you're dealing with complex bugs that span multiple files. Before, I'd have to carefully copy each relevant file, making sure I didn't miss anything important. Now I just reference each file with `@/` and Cline gets the complete picture.
+
+Next time you're stuck on a problem, try using file mentions instead of copying code. You'll save time and get better answers because Cline has all the context it needs.
+
+## How It Works Under the Hood
+
+When you use a file mention in your message, here's what happens behind the scenes:
+
+1. When you send your message, Cline detects the `@/path/to/file` pattern in your text
+2. The extension resolves the file path relative to your workspace root
+3. It checks if the file is binary (like an image) or text-based
+4. For text files, it reads the complete file content
+5. The file content is appended to your message in a structured format:
+    ```
+    <file_content path="path/to/file">

+Folder mentions let you bring entire directories into your conversation with Cline. Just type `@/` followed by a folder path ending with a slash, and Cline gets access to the folder structure and its contents.
+
+When you type `@/` in chat, Cline shows your workspace files and folders. Navigate to the folder you want, make sure to include the trailing slash, and Cline will see the folder's structure and contents.
+
+I use folder mentions when I need help understanding or refactoring a whole section of my codebase. Instead of referencing individual files one by one, I can just point to the entire directory:
+
+```
+I'm trying to understand how the authentication flow works in my app.
+Can you explain the structure and relationships between the files in @/src/auth/?
+```
+
+Cline can then see all the files in the auth directory, their contents, and how they relate to each other. This gives it the full context to explain complex interactions between multiple files.
+
+Folder mentions are also perfect for getting help with project organization. When I'm unsure if my project structure makes sense, I'll ask Cline to review it:
+
+```
+I'm setting up a new React project. Does this folder structure make sense? @/src/
+What would you change to make it more maintainable as the project grows?
+```
+
+Next time you're working with multiple related files, try using folder mentions instead of referencing each file individually. You'll get more comprehensive help because Cline can see the bigger picture of how everything fits together.

+
+Git mentions let you bring your repository's history and changes directly into your conversation with Cline. You can reference uncommitted changes with `@git-changes` or specific commits with `@[commit-hash]`.
+
+When you type `@` in chat, you can select "Git Changes" from the menu or type `@git-changes` directly. For specific commits, type `@` followed by the commit hash (at least 7 characters). Cline will immediately see the git status, diffs, commit messages, and other relevant information.
+
+I use git mentions constantly when I'm trying to understand code changes or troubleshoot issues introduced by recent commits. Instead of trying to copy and paste diffs or commit logs, I just ask:
+
+```
+I think this commit broke our authentication flow: @a1b2c3d
+
+Can you explain what changed and why it might be causing the issue?
+```
+
+This gives Cline the complete commit information, including the commit message, author, date, and the full diff. Cline can then analyze exactly what changed and how it might affect other parts of the codebase.
+
+The `@git-changes` mention is perfect when you're working on changes and want feedback before committing:
+
+```
+Here are my current changes: @git-changes
+
+I'm trying to implement a new feature for user profiles. Does my approach make sense?
+Are there any potential issues or improvements you'd suggest?
+```
+
+This shows Cline all your uncommitted changes, including new files, modified files, and their diffs. Cline can then review your changes and provide feedback on your implementation.
+
+Git mentions are especially powerful when combined with file mentions. When I'm investigating a bug, I'll often reference both:
+
+```
+I think this commit introduced a bug: @a1b2c3d

+
+## Why @ Mentions Matter
+
+@ mentions transform how you interact with Cline by:
+
+1. **Eliminating copy-paste**: No more copying and pasting code, error messages, or terminal output. Just reference them directly.
+
+2. **Preserving context**: Cline sees the complete context, including imports, related functions, and surrounding code that might be relevant.
+
+3. **Maintaining formatting**: Terminal output, error messages, and web content keep their formatting, making them easier to understand.
+
+4. **Enabling complex workflows**: Combine multiple @ mentions to give Cline a complete picture of your problem:
+
+    ```
+    I'm getting these errors: @problems
+
+    Here's my component: @/src/components/Form.jsx
+    And the API endpoint: @/src/api/users.js
+
+    The error happens when I submit: @terminal
+
+    I think this commit might have caused it: @a1b2c3d
+    ```
+
+## Getting Started
+
+To use @ mentions:
+
+1. Type `@` in the chat input
+2. Select the type of mention from the menu or continue typing
+3. For files and folders, navigate through your workspace structure
+4. Send your message as usual
+
+Cline will automatically process the mentions and include the referenced content in the context sent to the AI.
+
+Try using @ mentions in your next conversation with Cline - you'll be amazed at how much more efficient and effective your interactions become when you can seamlessly bring in external context.
+
+## How It Works Under the Hood
+
+When you use @ mentions in your messages, there's a sophisticated process happening behind the scenes:
+
+1. **Detection**: When you send a message, Cline scans the text for @ mention patterns using regular expressions
+2. **Processing**: For each detected mention, Cline:
+    - Determines the mention type (file, folder, problems, terminal, git, URL)
+    - Fetches the relevant content (file contents, terminal output, etc.)
+    - Formats the content appropriately
+3. **Enhancement**: The original message is enhanced with structured data:
+
+    ```
+    Your original message with @/path/to/file
+
+    <file_content path="/path/to/file">
+    [Complete file content]
+    </file_content>
+    ```
+
+4. **Context Inclusion**: This enhanced message with all the embedded content is sent to the AI model
+5. **Seamless Response**: The AI can now "see" all the referenced content as if you had manually copied and pasted it
+
+This entire process happens automatically and seamlessly whenever you use @ mentions, giving the AI complete context without you having to manually copy anything.
+
+Each type of @ mention has its own specific implementation details, which you can find in their respective documentation pages.

+
+The problems mention gives Cline instant access to all the errors and warnings in your workspace. Just type `@problems` and Cline can see every diagnostic issue VSCode has detected.
+
+When you type `@` in chat, select "Problems" from the menu or just type `@problems` directly. Cline will immediately see all the errors and warnings from your workspace, complete with file locations and error messages.
+
+I use the problems mention constantly when I'm stuck on build errors or TypeScript issues. Instead of trying to describe the errors or copy them one by one, I just ask:
+
+```
+I'm getting these TypeScript errors and I'm not sure how to fix them: @problems
+
+Can you help me understand what's wrong and how to fix it?
+```
+
+This gives Cline the complete list of errors with their exact locations and messages. Cline can then analyze the patterns across multiple errors and suggest comprehensive solutions.
+
+The problems mention is especially powerful when combined with file mentions. When I'm dealing with complex type errors, I'll reference both:
+
+```
+I'm getting these type errors: @problems
+
+Here's my component: @/src/components/DataTable.tsx
+And the types file: @/src/types/api.ts
+
+How can I fix these issues?
+```
+
+This approach gives Cline everything it needs - the exact errors, the component code, and the type definitions - all without me having to copy anything manually.
+
+Next time you're stuck on errors, try using `@problems` instead of copying error messages. You'll get more accurate help because Cline can see the complete error context and locations.
+
+## How It Works Under the Hood
+
+When you use the problems mention in your message, here's what happens behind the scenes:
+
+1. When you send your message, Cline detects the `@problems` pattern in your text
+2. The extension calls VSCode's built-in `vscode.languages.getDiagnostics()` API to get all errors and warnings
+3. It formats these diagnostics into a structured text representation with file paths, line numbers, and error messages
+4. The formatted problems list is appended to your message in a structured format:
+    ```
+    <workspace_diagnostics>
+    /path/to/file.js:10:5 - error TS2322: Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'number'.
+    /path/to/file.js:15:3 - warning: This variable is never used.

+The terminal mention lets you bring your terminal output directly into your conversation with Cline. Just type `@terminal` and Cline can see the recent output from your terminal.
+
+When you type `@` in chat, select "Terminal" from the menu or just type `@terminal` directly. Cline will immediately see the recent output from your active terminal, including error messages, build logs, or command results.
+
+I use the terminal mention all the time when I'm dealing with build errors, test failures, or debugging output. Instead of trying to copy and paste terminal output (which often loses formatting), I just ask:
+
+```
+I'm getting this error when running my tests: @terminal
+
+What's causing this and how can I fix it?

+
+URL mentions let you bring web content directly into your conversation with Cline. Just type `@` followed by any URL, and Cline can see the content of that webpage without you having to copy and paste anything.
+
+When you type `@` in chat followed by a URL (like `@https://example.com`), Cline will fetch the content of that webpage and include it in the context. This works for documentation pages, GitHub issues, Stack Overflow questions, or any other web content you want to reference.
+
+I use URL mentions constantly when I'm working with external APIs or libraries. Instead of trying to explain how an API works or copying documentation snippets, I just reference the docs directly:
+
+```
+I'm trying to implement authentication with this API: @https://api.example.com/docs/auth
+
+Can you help me write the code to get an access token based on these docs?
+```
+
+This gives Cline the complete documentation page, so it can see all the authentication requirements, endpoints, parameters, and examples. Cline can then provide more accurate and comprehensive help based on the official documentation.

+
+When you use a URL mention in your message, here's what happens behind the scenes:

+1. When you send your message, Cline detects the `@http://...` or `@https://...` pattern in your text
+2. The extension launches a headless browser (Puppeteer) in the background
+3. It navigates to the URL and waits for the page to load completely
+4. The browser captures the page content, including text, formatting, and code examples
+5. The content is converted to a Markdown format that preserves the structure

+The Auto Approve menu lets you set fine-grained permissions on what you allow Cline to do in an automated way.
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/auto-approve.png" alt="Auto Approve" />
+</Frame>
+
+## How it works
+
+By default, Cline will ask for your permission before calling any tool, including reading or writing files.
+
+If you want to allow Cline to do something without asking, you can set the Auto Approve permission for that tool.
+
+## Permission Options
+
+-   **Read project files**
+
+    -   Allows Cline to read files within your current workspace without asking
+    -   **Read all files**
+        -   Extends read permission to files outside your workspace (system files, config files, etc.)
+
+-   **Edit project files**
+
+    -   Allows Cline to modify files within your current workspace without confirmation
+    -   **Edit all files**
+        -   Extends modification permission to files outside your workspace
+
+-   **Execute safe commands**
+
+    -   Allows execution of terminal commands that the model deems non-destructive
+    -   **Execute all commands**
+        -   Permits execution of any terminal command without asking
+
+-   **Use the browser**
+
+    -   Allows Cline to use the browser tool to fetch web content
+
+-   **Use MCP servers**
+
+    -   Permits connection to and usage of MCP servers for extended functionality
+
+-   **Maximum requests**
+    -   Sets the number of consecutive automated actions Cline can take before requiring your input
+
+## Best Practices
+
+Personally, I like to keep auto-editing disabled because it gives me a chance to review changes every step of the way.
+
+For most serious development workflows, I recommend starting with:
+
+-   Auto-approving read access to project files
+-   Setting a reasonable maximum request limit (10-20)
+
+This gives Cline enough freedom to explore your codebase without constant interruptions, while still requiring permission for edits or potentially destructive actions.
+
+As you build more trust in Cline's capabilities with your specific projects, you can gradually increase the permissions to match your comfort level.
+
+Remember that you can always adjust these settings as your needs change - tighten permissions for critical production work, or loosen them when prototyping and exploring.
+
+You can even use the quick "star" actions to quickly toggle your auto-approved selections on and off as you go.

+title: "Checkpoints"
+sidebarTitle: "Checkpoints"
+---
+
+Checkpoints automatically save snapshots of your workspace after each step in a task. This feature lets you track changes, roll back when needed, and experiment confidently with your code.
+
+## How Checkpoints Work
+
+Cline creates a checkpoint after each tool use (file edits, commands, etc.). These checkpoints:
+
+-   Work alongside your Git workflow without interference
+-   Maintain context between restores
+-   Use a shadow Git repository to track changes
+
+For example, if you're working on a feature and Cline makes multiple file changes, each change creates a checkpoint. This means you can review each modification and, if needed, roll back to any point without affecting your main Git repository.
+
+## Viewing Changes & Restoring
+
+After each tool use, you can:
+
+1. Click the "Compare" button to see modified files
+2. Click the "Restore" button to open restore options
+
+<Frame>
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(13).png"
+		alt="Checkpoint comparison and restore options"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+## Restore Options
+
+To restore to a previous point:
+
+1. Click the "Restore" button next to any step
+2. Choose from three options:
+    - **Restore Task and Workspace**: Reset both codebase and task to that point
+    - **Restore Task Only**: Keep codebase changes but revert task context
+    - **Restore Workspace Only**: Reset codebase while preserving task context
+
+Example: If Cline makes changes you don't like while styling a component, you can use "Restore Workspace Only" to revert the code changes while keeping the conversation context, allowing you to try a different approach.
+
+<Frame caption="Reverting both codebase and task to before any changes were made to start fresh">
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/checkpointsDemo.gif" alt="Checkpoint restore demo" />
+</Frame>
+
+## Use Cases
+
+Checkpoints let you be more experimental with Cline. While human coding is often methodical and iterative, AI can make substantial changes quickly. Checkpoints help you track these changes and revert if needed.
+
+### Using Auto-Approve Mode
+
+-   Provides safety net for rapid iterations
+-   Makes it easy to undo unexpected results
+
+### Testing Different Approaches
+
+-   Try multiple solutions confidently
+-   Compare different implementations
+-   Quickly revert to working states
+-   Ideal for exploring different design patterns or architectural approaches
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. Use checkpoints as safety nets when experimenting
+2. Leverage auto-approve mode more confidently, knowing you can always roll back
+3. Restore selectively based on needs:
+    - Use "Restore Task and Workspace" for a fresh start
+    - Use "Restore Task Only" to try different prompts, but keep file changes
+    - Use "Restore Workspace Only" to attempt different implementations while preserving conversation context
+
+## Relationship with Message Editing
+
+The [message editing feature](/features/editing-messages) uses checkpoints under the hood when you select the "Restore All" option. This allows you to not only edit and resubmit your message but also restore your workspace to the state it was in at that point in the conversation.
+
+## Deleting Checkpoints
+
+You can delete all checkpoints by using the **"Delete All History"** button in the task history menu. Note that this will also delete all tasks. Checkpoints are stored in VS Code's globalStorage.

+Cline Rules allow you to provide Cline with system-level guidance. Think of them as a persistent way to include context and preferences for your projects or globally for every conversation.
+
+## Creating a Rule
+
+You can create a rule by clicking the `+` button in the Rules tab. This will open a new file in your IDE which you can use to write your rule.
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/cline-rules.png" alt="Create a Rule" />
+</Frame>
+
+Once you save the file:
+
+-   Your rule will be stored in the `.clinerules/` directory in your project (if it's a Workspace Rule)
+-   Or in the `Documents/Cline/Rules` directory (if it's a Global Rule).
+
+You can also have Cline create a rule for you by using the [`/newrule` slash command](/features/slash-commands/new-rule) in the chat.
+
+```markdown Example Cline Rule Structure [expandable]
+# Project Guidelines
+
+## Documentation Requirements
+
+-   Update relevant documentation in /docs when modifying features
+-   Keep README.md in sync with new capabilities
+-   Maintain changelog entries in CHANGELOG.md
+
+## Architecture Decision Records
+
+Create ADRs in /docs/adr for:
+
+-   Major dependency changes
+-   Architectural pattern changes
+-   New integration patterns
+-   Database schema changes
+    Follow template in /docs/adr/template.md
+
+## Code Style & Patterns
+
+-   Generate API clients using OpenAPI Generator
+-   Use TypeScript axios template
+-   Place generated code in /src/generated
+-   Prefer composition over inheritance
+-   Use repository pattern for data access
+-   Follow error handling pattern in /src/utils/errors.ts
+
+## Testing Standards
+
+-   Unit tests required for business logic
+-   Integration tests for API endpoints
+-   E2E tests for critical user flows
+```
+
+### Key Benefits
+
+1. **Version Controlled**: The `.clinerules` file becomes part of your project's source code
+2. **Team Consistency**: Ensures consistent behavior across all team members
+3. **Project-Specific**: Rules and standards tailored to each project's needs
+4. **Institutional Knowledge**: Maintains project standards and practices in code
+
+Place the `.clinerules` file in your project's root directory:
+
+```
+your-project/
+├── .clinerules
+├── src/
+├── docs/
+└── ...
+```
+
+Cline's system prompt, on the other hand, is not user-editable ([here's where you can find it](https://github.com/cline/cline/blob/main/src/core/prompts/system.ts)). For a broader look at prompt engineering best practices, check out [this resource](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/prompt-engineering/overview).
+
+### Tips for Writing Effective Cline Rules
+
+-   Be Clear and Concise: Use simple language and avoid ambiguity.
+-   Focus on Desired Outcomes: Describe the results you want, not the specific steps.
+-   Test and Iterate: Experiment to find what works best for your workflow.
+
+### .clinerules/ Folder System
+
+```
+your-project/
+├── .clinerules/              # Folder containing active rules
+│   ├── 01-coding.md          # Core coding standards
+│   ├── 02-documentation.md   # Documentation requirements
+│   └── current-sprint.md     # Rules specific to current work
+├── src/
+└── ...
+```
+
+Cline automatically processes **all Markdown files** inside the `.clinerules/` directory, combining them into a unified set of rules. The numeric prefixes (optional) help organize files in a logical sequence.
+
+#### Using a Rules Bank
+
+For projects with multiple contexts or teams, maintain a rules bank directory:
+
+```
+your-project/
+├── .clinerules/              # Active rules - automatically applied
+│   ├── 01-coding.md
+│   └── client-a.md
+│
+├── clinerules-bank/          # Repository of available but inactive rules
+│   ├── clients/              # Client-specific rule sets
+│   │   ├── client-a.md
+│   │   └── client-b.md
+│   ├── frameworks/           # Framework-specific rules
+│   │   ├── react.md
+│   │   └── vue.md
+│   └── project-types/        # Project type standards
+│       ├── api-service.md
+│       └── frontend-app.md
+└── ...
+```
+
+#### Benefits of the Folder Approach
+
+1. **Contextual Activation**: Copy only relevant rules from the bank to the active folder
+2. **Easier Maintenance**: Update individual rule files without affecting others
+3. **Team Flexibility**: Different team members can activate rules specific to their current task
+4. **Reduced Noise**: Keep the active ruleset focused and relevant
+
+#### Usage Examples
+
+Switch between client projects:
+
+```bash
+# Switch to Client B project
+rm .clinerules/client-a.md
+cp clinerules-bank/clients/client-b.md .clinerules/
+```
+
+Adapt to different tech stacks:
+
+```bash
+# Frontend React project
+cp clinerules-bank/frameworks/react.md .clinerules/
+```
+
+#### Implementation Tips
+
+-   Keep individual rule files focused on specific concerns
+-   Use descriptive filenames that clearly indicate the rule's purpose
+-   Consider git-ignoring the active `.clinerules/` folder while tracking the `clinerules-bank/`
+-   Create team scripts to quickly activate common rule combinations
+
+The folder system transforms your Cline rules from a static document into a dynamic knowledge system that adapts to your team's changing contexts and requirements.
+
+### Managing Rules with the Toggleable Popover
+
+To make managing both single `.clinerules` files and the folder system even easier, Cline v3.13 introduces a dedicated popover UI directly accessible from the chat interface.
+
+Located conveniently under the chat input field, this popover allows you to:
+
+-   **Instantly See Active Rules:** View which global rules (from your user settings) and workspace rules (`.clinerules` file or folder contents) are currently active.
+-   **Quickly Toggle Rules:** Enable or disable specific rule files within your workspace `.clinerules/` folder with a single click. This is perfect for activating context-specific rules (like `react-rules.md` or `memory-bank.md`) only when needed.
+-   **Easily Add/Manage Rules:** Quickly create a workspace `.clinerules` file or folder if one doesn't exist, or add new rule files to an existing folder.
+
+This UI significantly simplifies switching contexts and managing different sets of instructions without needing to manually edit files or configurations during a conversation.

+1. Analyzes the selected code for potential improvements
+2. Suggests optimizations, refactorings, or better practices
+3. Explains the reasoning behind the suggested changes
+4. Provides improved code that maintains the original functionality
+
+## How to Use Code Commands
+
+Using Cline's code commands is simple:
+
+### For Right-Click Commands:
+
+1. Select the code you want to work with
+2. Right-click to open the context menu
+3. Choose "Add to Cline"
+4. View the result in the Cline chat panel
+
+### For Lightbulb Menu Commands:
+
+1. Select the code you want to work with
+2. Look for the lightbulb icon that appears in the editor gutter
+3. Click the lightbulb to see available actions
+4. Choose the appropriate Cline command (Fix, Explain, or Improve)
+5. View the result in the Cline chat panel
+
+After using any command, you can:
+
+-   Ask follow-up questions
+-   Request modifications to the solution
+-   Apply the changes back to your code
+
+## How It Works Under the Hood
+
+When you use a code command, here's what happens behind the scenes:
+
+1. **Code Selection**: The extension captures your selected code and its context
+2. **Metadata Collection**: Cline gathers important metadata:
+
+    - File path and name
+    - Programming language
+    - Any associated diagnostics (errors/warnings)
+    - Surrounding code context when relevant
+
+3. **Command Processing**:
+
+    - For "Add to Cline," the code is formatted and sent to the chat panel
+    - For "Fix with Cline," the code and diagnostics are analyzed and a fix is generated
+    - For "Explain with Cline," the code is analyzed to provide a clear explanation
+    - For "Improve with Cline," the code is analyzed for potential optimizations and improvements
+
+4. **Integration with Chat**: The results appear in the Cline chat panel, where you can:
+    - See the AI's response
+    - Ask follow-up questions
+    - Apply suggested changes
+
+This seamless integration between your editor and Cline's AI capabilities makes it easy to get assistance without disrupting your coding flow.
+
+## Tips for Effective Use
+
+-   **Select complete logical units**: When possible, select entire functions, classes, or modules to give Cline complete context
+-   **Include imports**: For language-specific help, include relevant imports so Cline understands dependencies
+-   **Combine with @ mentions**: For complex issues, use code commands along with file or problem mentions for more context
+-   **Use keyboard shortcuts**: Speed up your workflow by [assigning keyboard shortcuts](/features/commands-and-shortcuts/keyboard-shortcuts) to common code commands
+
+Next time you're struggling with a piece of code, try using Cline's code commands instead of switching to a separate chat interface. You'll be amazed at how much more efficient your workflow becomes when AI assistance is integrated directly into your editor.

+
+Cline's Git integration brings AI assistance directly to your version control workflow. Generate commit messages without leaving your editor.
+
+## Generate Commit Message
+
+One of the most useful Git integrations is the ability to automatically generate meaningful commit messages:
+
+<Frame>
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/generate-commit-message-with-cline.png"
+		alt="Generate Commit Message with Cline"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+1. Make your changes and stage them in Git
+2. Click the robot icon in the Source Control view or run the "Generate Commit Message with Cline" command
+3. Cline analyzes your changes and generates a descriptive commit message
+4. The message is automatically inserted into the commit message input box
+
+The generated commit messages:
+
+-   Start with a concise summary (50-72 characters)
+-   Use imperative mood (e.g., "Add feature" not "Added feature")
+-   Describe what was changed and why
+-   Follow Git best practices
+
+This feature saves time and ensures your commit history is consistent and informative.
+
+<Tip>
+	For information about using `@git-changes` and `@[commit-hash]` mentions in your chat messages, see the [Git
+	Mentions](/features/at-mentions/git-mentions) documentation.
+</Tip>
+
+## How It Works
+
+When you use Cline's commit message generation feature, here's what happens behind the scenes:
+
+1. Cline retrieves the current Git diff using `getWorkingState()`
+2. It formats this diff into a specialized prompt for the AI
+3. The AI analyzes the changes and generates an appropriate commit message
+4. The message is extracted and inserted into the Git commit message input box
+
+This process uses your current Cline API configuration, so the quality of the generated messages matches your chosen AI model.
+
+## Tips for Effective Use
+
+-   **Generate commit messages for complex changes**: The AI excels at summarizing multiple related changes into a coherent message.
+
+-   **Review and edit generated messages**: While the AI generates high-quality messages, it's always good practice to review and adjust them if needed.
+
+-   **Stage related changes together**: For the best results, stage related changes together so the AI can generate a cohesive message.
+
+-   **Use for consistent commit history**: Using the generate commit message feature helps maintain a consistent style across your commit history.
+
+## How It Works Under the Hood
+
+The commit message generation leverages VSCode's Git extension API to access repository information:
+
+1. When you trigger the command:
+    - Cline gets the current diff
+    - It sends this to the AI with specific instructions for commit message formatting
+    - It parses the AI's response
+    - It accesses the Git extension API to set the commit message
+
+This integration with Git makes it easy to generate high-quality commit messages without disrupting your workflow.
+
+Next time you're struggling to write a good commit message, try using Cline's commit message generation. You'll save time and improve your version control workflow with AI assistance right where you need it.

+-   Combine with VSCode's split editor shortcuts to view code and Cline side by side
+-   Use VSCode's terminal focus shortcut (`` Ctrl+` `` / `` Cmd+` ``) before capturing terminal output
+
+## Tips for Effective Use
+
+-   **Learn the default shortcut first**: The `Ctrl+'` / `Cmd+'` shortcut is versatile - it adds selected code to chat when text is selected, or focuses the chat input when nothing is selected
+-   **Create muscle memory**: Use keyboard shortcuts consistently to build habits
+-   **Customize for your workflow**: Assign shortcuts to commands you use frequently
+-   **Consider ergonomics**: Choose shortcuts that are comfortable for your keyboard layout
+

+
+Cline's terminal integration lets you bring your terminal output directly into your conversations with Cline. Instead of copying and pasting error messages or command results, you can send them to Cline with a simple right-click in the terminal.
+
+<Frame>
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/terminal-integration.png"
+		alt="Terminal Integration"

+
+## Right-Click Terminal Integration
+
+When you're working in the VSCode terminal and see output you want to discuss with Cline:
+
+1. Right-click in the terminal
+2. Select "Add to Cline" from the context menu
+3. The terminal output is immediately sent to the Cline chat panel
+
+This is perfect for:
+
+-   Debugging build errors
+-   Understanding test failures
+-   Analyzing command output
+-   Getting help with error messages
+
+The right-click terminal integration is especially useful when you're already working in the terminal and encounter an issue.
+
+Instead of switching context to the Cline chat panel and typing a description of the problem, you can send the terminal output directly to Cline with just a couple of clicks.
+
+Alternatively, you can use the [`@terminal`](/features/at-mentions/terminal-mentions) mention to send the full terminal output to Cline.
+
+<Tip>
+	For information about using `@terminal` mentions in your chat messages, see the [Terminal
+	Mentions](/features/at-mentions/terminal-mentions) documentation.
+</Tip>
+
+## How Terminal Integration Works
+
+When you use the right-click terminal integration, Cline:
+
+1. Captures the terminal output with all formatting preserved
+2. Includes the complete context, including command history and results
+3. Formats it appropriately for the AI to understand
+4. Enables the AI to see exactly what you're seeing
+
+This gives Cline the full context it needs to provide accurate help with terminal-related issues.
+
+## Behind the Scenes
+
+The terminal integration uses a clever technique to capture terminal output:
+
+1. When you trigger the integration, Cline:
+
+    - Temporarily saves your current clipboard content
+    - Selects all terminal content (or uses your existing selection)
+    - Copies it to the clipboard
+    - Reads the clipboard to get the terminal content
+    - Restores your original clipboard content
+
+2. The terminal content is then:
+    - Formatted with proper syntax highlighting
+    - Added to your message or sent as a new message
+    - Enhanced with additional context when needed
+
+This approach ensures that all terminal output, including colors and formatting, is accurately captured without affecting your clipboard.
+
+## Tips for Effective Use
+
+-   **Use terminal integration for error messages**: When you encounter an error in the terminal, sending it to Cline often results in faster resolution than trying to describe the error.
+
+-   **Select specific output when needed**: By default, the integration captures all terminal content, but you can also select specific lines before right-clicking to focus on just the relevant output.
+
+-   **Combine with file mentions**: After sending terminal output to Cline, you can enhance your question by mentioning relevant files using the @ mentions feature.
+
+-   **Use for build and test output**: Terminal integration is particularly useful for understanding complex build errors or test failures that span multiple lines.
+
+Next time you're staring at a cryptic error message in your terminal, try using Cline's terminal integration instead of copying and pasting. You'll get more accurate help because Cline can see the complete terminal context with proper formatting.

+
+When you edit a message, you have two options for restoring:
+
+### Restore Chat
+
+The "Restore Chat" option:
+
+-   Restores just the task state
+-   Re-submits an API request with your edited message
+-   Preserves all file changes made up to that point
+-   Is useful when you want to keep the current state of your workspace
+
+### Restore All
+
+The "Restore All" option:
+
+-   Restores both the task state and workspace state
+-   Re-submits an API request with your edited message
+-   Reverts your workspace to how it was at that point in the conversation
+-   Uses [checkpoints](/features/checkpoints) under the hood to restore your workspace
+-   Is useful when you want to try a completely different approach
+
+## Keyboard Shortcuts
+
+When editing a message, you can use these keyboard shortcuts:
+
+-   **Escape**: Exit edit mode without making changes
+-   **Enter**: Restore just the task (equivalent to "Restore Chat")
+-   **Cmd/Ctrl + Enter**: Restore the task and workspace (equivalent to "Restore All")
+-   **Shift + Enter**: Insert a new line / line break in your message
+
+## Best Practices
+
+-   Use message editing for minor adjustments to your requests
+-   For major changes in direction, consider starting a new task
+-   When using "Restore All," be aware that any file changes made after that message will be reverted

+
+Plan & Act modes represent Cline's approach to structured AI development, emphasizing thoughtful planning before implementation. This dual-mode system helps developers create more maintainable, accurate code while reducing iteration time.
+
+<Frame>

+</Frame>
+
+#### Plan Mode: Think First
+
+Plan mode is where you and Cline figure out what you're trying to build and how you'll build it. In this mode, Cline:
+
+-   Can read your entire codebase to understand the context
+-   Won't make any changes to your files
+-   Focuses on understanding requirements and creating a strategy
+-   Helps identify potential issues before you write a single line of code
+
+#### Act Mode: Build It
+
+Once you've got a plan, you switch to Act mode. Now Cline:
+
+-   Has all the building capabilities at its disposal
+-   Can make changes to your codebase
+-   Still remembers everything from your planning session
+-   Executes the strategy you worked out together
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(5).png" alt="Act mode capabilities" />
+</Frame>
+
+### Workflow Guide
+
+When I'm working on a new feature or fixing a complex bug, here's what works for me:
+
+1. I start in Plan mode and tell Cline what I want to build
+2. Cline helps me explore the codebase, looking at relevant files
+3. Together we figure out the best approach, considering edge cases and potential issues
+4. When I'm confident in our plan, I switch to Act mode
+5. Cline implements the solution based on our planning
+
+#### 1. Start with Plan Mode
+
+Begin every significant development task in Plan mode:
+
+In this mode:
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(5)%20(1).png" alt="Plan mode workflow" />

+
+#### 2. Switch to Act Mode
+
+Once you have a clear plan, switch to Act mode:
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/switching-to-act.gif" alt="Switching to Act mode" />
+</Frame>
+
+Act mode allows Cline to:
+
+-   Execute against the agreed plan
+-   Make changes to your codebase
+-   Maintain context from planning phase
+
+#### 3. Iterate as Needed
+
+Complex projects often require multiple plan-act cycles:
+
+-   Return to Plan mode when encountering unexpected complexity
+-   Use Act mode for implementing solutions
+-   Maintain development momentum while ensuring quality
+
+### Best Practices
+
+#### Planning Phase
+
+1. Be comprehensive with requirements
+2. Share relevant context upfront
+3. Point Cline to relevant files if he hasn't read them
+4. Validate approach before implementation
+
+#### Implementation Phase
+
+1. Follow the established plan
+2. Monitor progress against objectives
+3. Track changes and their impact
+4. Document significant decisions
+

+</Frame>
+
+### Power User Tips
+
+#### Enhancing Planning
+
+-   Use Plan mode to explore edge cases before implementation
+-   Switch back to Plan when encountering unexpected complexity
+-   Leverage [file reading](/features/at-mentions/file-mentions) to validate assumptions early
+-   Have Cline write markdown files of the plan for future reference
+
+### Common Patterns
+
+#### When to Use Each Mode
+
+I've found Plan mode works best when:
+
+-   Starting something new where the approach isn't obvious
+-   Debugging a tricky issue where I'm not sure what's wrong
+-   Making architectural decisions that will affect multiple parts of the codebase
+-   Trying to understand a complex workflow or feature
+
+And Act mode is perfect for:
+
+-   Implementing a solution we've already planned out
+-   Making routine changes where the approach is clear
+-   Following established patterns in the codebase
+-   Running tests and making minor adjustments

+title: "New Rule Command"
+sidebarTitle: "/newrule"
+---
+
+`/newrule` is a slash command that lets you teach Cline your preferred way of working. It creates a markdown file in your `.clinerules` directory that acts like persistent instructions for how Cline should behave when helping with your projects.
+
+Think of it as setting up house rules that Cline will always follow, so you don't have to repeat your preferences in every conversation.
+
+#### Using the `/newrule` Slash Command
+
+When you want Cline to consistently follow certain guidelines:
+
+-   Type `/newrule` in the chat
+-   Cline will help you create a structured rule file by asking about your preferences for:
+    -   Communication style (verbose vs. concise)
+    -   Development workflows
+    -   Coding standards
+    -   Project context
+    -   Any other specific guidelines
+-   You'll review the rule file before it's created
+-   Once approved, Cline creates a markdown file in your `.clinerules` directory that will automatically be loaded for future conversations
+
+#### Example
+
+I used `/newrule` when I was fed up with repeating the same instructions on every new task. I had specific preferences for how I wanted my React components structured, which testing library to use, and even my preferred variable naming style.
+
+Instead of typing these preferences each time, I just used `/newrule` and worked with Cline to create a detailed rule file. We built a markdown file that covered everything from code organization to my preference for functional components over class components.
+
+Now whenever I chat with Cline about my React project, it automatically follows these guidelines without me having to remind it. The best part is that I can create different rule files for different projects, so Cline adapts to whatever codebase I'm working on.
+
+#### Inspiration
+
+Here's how I use `/newrule` to make my development smoother:
+
+-   I created a rule file for each major project with specific architectural patterns and library preferences, so Cline always generates code that matches our existing codebase.
+
+-   For my team's shared projects, we have a common rule file that ensures consistent code style and documentation practices regardless of who's using Cline.
+
+-   When working with legacy code, I made a rule file that reminds Cline about the quirks and constraints of the old system, so it never suggests modern approaches that won't integrate well.
+
+-   I even have a personal rule file for my side projects with all my opinionated preferences - two-space indentation, arrow functions everywhere, and my exact folder structure requirements.

+title: "New Task Command"
+sidebarTitle: "/newtask"
+---
+
+`/newtask` is a slash command that works like a perfect developer handoff. It intelligently packages what matters - the overall plan, work accomplished, relevant files, and next steps - into a fresh task with a clean context window. All while leaving behind the noise of tool calls, documentation searches, and implementation details.
+
+It's exactly what you'd do when bringing a new developer onto your project: provide the essential context they need to continue the work without overwhelming them with every keystroke that came before.
+
+#### Using the `/newtask` Slash Command
+
+When your context window is filling up but you're not done with your project:

+		alt="Using the /newtask slash command"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+-   Type `/newtask` in the chat input field
+-   Cline will analyze your conversation and propose a distilled version of the context to carry forward
+-   You can refine this proposed context through conversation before committing
+-   Once satisfied, a button appears to create the new task with your refined context
+
+#### Example
+
+I regularly use `/newtask` when working through complex implementations with multiple steps. For instance, if I've completed 3 steps of a 10-step process and my context is already 75% full with documentation snippets, file contents, and detailed discussions.
+
+Rather than losing those insights or starting from scratch, I use `/newtask` to have Cline extract what matters - the key decisions, file changes, and progress so far - without all the noise of individual tool calls and research steps.
+
+I like to think of `/newtask` as a new developer joining the project. I need to give them the full understanding of the work that has been done, awareness of the relevant files, any other context that would be helpful, and where to go next.
+
+#### Inspiration
+
+Here are some popular ways to use `/newtask`:
+
+-   I research complex APIs using the Context7 MCP server, filling my context with documentation. Once I understand the concepts, I use `/newtask` to start fresh with just the essential knowledge needed for implementation.
+-   After identifying the root cause of a tough bug through multiple debugging attempts and file explorations, I use `/newtask` to continue with a clean slate that includes the solution but discards all the failed attempts.
+-   When a client discussion explores multiple approaches and finally settles on one direction, I use `/newtask` to focus solely on implementing the chosen solution.
+-   For complex projects spanning multiple days, I use `/newtask` at logical stopping points to maintain a clean workspace while carrying forward my progress.

+title: "Report Bug Command"
+sidebarTitle: "/reportbug"
+---
+
+`/reportbug` is an absolute lifesaver when you hit a weird issue with Cline. Instead of having to remember all the details GitHub wants for a bug report, this command turns Cline into your personal bug reporting assistant.
+
+It walks you through collecting all the info needed for a proper bug report and then shoots it straight to our GitHub issues page with all the right formatting and system details included.
+
+#### Using the `/reportbug` Slash Command
+
+When you run into something funky that doesn't seem right:
+
+-   Just type `/reportbug` in the chat
+-   Cline will guide you through all the details we need:
+    -   A quick title describing the issue
+    -   What actually happened vs. what you expected
+    -   Steps to reproduce the bug
+    -   Any relevant output or errors you saw
+    -   Additional context that might help us fix it
+-   You'll get to review everything before it's submitted
+-   Once you approve, it opens a perfectly formatted GitHub issue with all your info plus automatic system details
+
+#### Example
+
+Last week I hit a weird bug where Cline kept timing out when reading large files. Instead of trying to remember all the GitHub template fields, I just typed `/reportbug` and Cline guided me through the whole process.
+
+It asked me about what I was trying to do, what happened instead, and the exact steps that led to the issue. The best part was that it automatically included my OS version, Cline version, and all the technical details our devs would need.
+
+A few seconds later, I had a properly formatted GitHub issue created without having to hunt down any of that info myself.

+title: "Smol Command"
+sidebarTitle: "/smol"
+---
+
+`/smol` (or its alias, `/compact`) is a slash command that compresses your conversation history while preserving essential context.
+
+Unlike `/newtask` which creates a new task, `/smol` condenses your current conversation into a comprehensive summary, freeing up context window space while allowing you to continue working in the same task.
+
+Think of it like summarizing the relevant parts of a conversation while discarding the rest.
+
+#### Using the `/smol` Slash Command
+
+When your context window is getting full but you want to continue in the same task:
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/smol.png" alt="Using the /smol slash command" />
+</Frame>
+
+-   Type `/smol` (or its alias `/compact`) in the chat input field
+-   Cline will analyze your conversation and create a detailed summary that preserves essential information
+-   You'll have a chance to review this summary and provide feedback if needed
+-   Once accepted, the detailed conversation history is replaced with this condensed version
+
+#### Example
+
+I use `/smol` when I'm deep into a complex debugging session and need to continue in the same task. After exploring multiple approaches and examining several files, my context window gets crowded with all the back-and-forth.
+
+By using `/smol`, I can condense all that exploration into a concise summary that captures what we've learned, which files we've examined, and what approaches we've tried. This frees up space to continue the debugging without losing the insights we've gained.
+
+The key difference from `/newtask` is that I'm staying in the same conversation flow rather than creating a separate task. This is particularly useful when I'm in the middle of something and don't want to context switch.
+
+#### Inspiration
+
+Here are powerful ways I use `/smol` in my workflow:
+
+-   During lengthy brainstorming sessions, I use `/smol` to condense our exploration before implementing the chosen solution, all within the same task.
+-   When debugging complex issues that involve multiple file checks and test runs, I use `/smol` to summarize what we've learned while continuing the debugging process.
+-   For iterative development, I use `/smol` after completing each feature to compress the implementation details while keeping the key decisions and approaches accessible.
+-   When gathering requirements from multiple sources, I use `/smol` to distill the essential needs into a concise summary before moving to the design phase.
+
+#### Smol vs Newtask
+
+People often ask me when to use `/smol` vs `/newtask`. Frankly, it's a matter of personal preference and what you're trying to achieve. Here are some guidelines:
+
+-   Use `/smol` when you're in the middle of something and want to keep going in the same task. It's perfect when you're deep in a debugging flow or brainstorming session and don't want to break your momentum. The downside? Once you compress your history, you can't get those detailed conversations back.
+-   Use `/newtask` when you're at a logical transition point and want to start fresh. It's great for moving from planning to implementation, or when you want to preserve your full conversation history (since it creates a new task rather than overwriting your current one).

+title: "Workflows"
+sidebarTitle: "Workflows"
+---
+
+Workflows allow you to define a series of steps to guide Cline through a repetitive set of tasks, such as deploying a service or submitting a PR.
+
+To invoke a workflow, type `/[workflow-name.md]` in the chat.
+
+## How to Create and Use Workflows
+
+Workflows live alongside [Cline Rules](/features/cline-rules). Creating one is straightforward:
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/workflows.png" alt="Workflows tab in Cline" />
+</Frame>
+
+1. Create a markdown file with clear instructions for the steps Cline should take
+2. Save it with a `.md` extension in your workflows directory
+3. To trigger a workflow, just type `/` followed by the workflow filename
+4. Provide any required parameters when prompted
+
+The real power comes from how you structure your workflow files. You can:
+
+-   Leverage Cline's [built-in tools](/exploring-clines-tools/cline-tools-guide) like `ask_followup_question`, `read_file`, `search_files`, and `new_task`
+-   Use command-line tools you already have installed like `gh` or `docker`
+-   Reference external [MCP tool calls](/mcp/mcp-overview) like Slack or Whatsapp
+-   Chain multiple actions together in a specific sequence
+
+## Real-world Example
+
+I created a PR Review workflow that's already saving me tons of time.
+
+````md pr-review.md [expandable]
+You have access to the `gh` terminal command. I already authenticated it for you. Please review it to use the PR that I asked you to review. You're already in the `cline` repo.
+
+<detailed_sequence_of_steps>
+
+# GitHub PR Review Process - Detailed Sequence of Steps
+
+## 1. Gather PR Information
+
+1. Get the PR title, description, and comments:
+
+    ```bash
+    gh pr view <PR-number> --json title,body,comments
+    ```
+
+2. Get the full diff of the PR:
+    ```bash
+    gh pr diff <PR-number>
+    ```
+
+## 2. Understand the Context
+
+1. Identify which files were modified in the PR:
+
+    ```bash
+    gh pr view <PR-number> --json files
+    ```
+
+2. Examine the original files in the main branch to understand the context:
+
+    ```xml
+    <read_file>
+    <path>path/to/file</path>
+    </read_file>
+    ```
+
+3. For specific sections of a file, you can use search_files:
+    ```xml
+    <search_files>
+    <path>path/to/directory</path>
+    <regex>search term</regex>
+    <file_pattern>*.ts</file_pattern>
+    </search_files>
+    ```
+
+## 3. Analyze the Changes
+
+1. For each modified file, understand:
+
+    - What was changed
+    - Why it was changed (based on PR description)
+    - How it affects the codebase
+    - Potential side effects
+
+2. Look for:
+    - Code quality issues
+    - Potential bugs
+    - Performance implications
+    - Security concerns
+    - Test coverage
+
+## 4. Ask for User Confirmation
+
+1. Before making a decision, ask the user if you should approve the PR, providing your assessment and justification:
+
+    ```xml
+    <ask_followup_question>
+    <question>Based on my review of PR #<PR-number>, I recommend [approving/requesting changes]. Here's my justification:
+
+    [Detailed justification with key points about the PR quality, implementation, and any concerns]
+
+    Would you like me to proceed with this recommendation?</question>
+    <options>["Yes, approve the PR", "Yes, request changes", "No, I'd like to discuss further"]</options>
+    </ask_followup_question>
+    ```
+
+## 5. Ask if User Wants a Comment Drafted
+
+1. After the user decides on approval/rejection, ask if they would like a comment drafted:
+
+    ```xml
+    <ask_followup_question>
+    <question>Would you like me to draft a comment for this PR that you can copy and paste?</question>
+    <options>["Yes, please draft a comment", "No, I'll handle the comment myself"]</options>
+    </ask_followup_question>
+    ```
+
+2. If the user wants a comment drafted, provide a well-structured comment they can copy:
+
+    ```
+    Thank you for this PR! Here's my assessment:
+
+    [Detailed assessment with key points about the PR quality, implementation, and any suggestions]
+
+    [Include specific feedback on code quality, functionality, and testing]
+    ```
+
+## 6. Make a Decision
+
+1. Approve the PR if it meets quality standards:
+
+    ```bash
+    # For single-line comments:
+    gh pr review <PR-number> --approve --body "Your approval message"
+
+    # For multi-line comments with proper whitespace formatting:
+    cat << EOF | gh pr review <PR-number> --approve --body-file -
+    Thanks @username for this PR! The implementation looks good.
+
+    I particularly like how you've handled X and Y.
+
+    Great work!
+    EOF
+    ```
+
+2. Request changes if improvements are needed:
+
+    ```bash
+    # For single-line comments:
+    gh pr review <PR-number> --request-changes --body "Your feedback message"
+
+    # For multi-line comments with proper whitespace formatting:
+    cat << EOF | gh pr review <PR-number> --request-changes --body-file -
+    Thanks @username for this PR!
+
+    The implementation looks promising, but there are a few things to address:
+
+    1. Issue one
+    2. Issue two
+
+    Please make these changes and we can merge this.
+    EOF
+    ```
+
+    Note: The `cat << EOF | ... --body-file -` approach preserves all whitespace and formatting without requiring temporary files. The `-` parameter tells the command to read from standard input.
+    </detailed_sequence_of_steps>
+
+<example_review_process>
+
+# Example PR Review Process
+
+Let's walk through a real example of reviewing PR #3627 which fixes the thinking mode calculation for Claude 3.7 models.
+
+## Step 1: Gather PR Information
+
+```bash
+# Get PR details
+gh pr view 3627 --json title,body,comments
+
+# Get the full diff
+gh pr diff 3627
+```
+
+## Step 2: Understand the Context
+
+```xml
+# Examine the original files to understand what's being changed
+<read_file>
+<path>src/shared/api.ts</path>
+</read_file>
+
+# Look at the ThinkingBudgetSlider component implementation
+<read_file>
+<path>webview-ui/src/components/settings/ThinkingBudgetSlider.tsx</path>
+</read_file>
+
+# Check how thinking mode is currently handled in API providers
+<search_files>
+<path>src/api/providers</path>
+<regex>reasoningOn</regex>
+<file_pattern>*.ts</file_pattern>
+</search_files>
+```
+
+## Step 3: Analyze the Changes
+
+From the PR information and code examination, we can see that:
+
+1. The PR fixes an issue with the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models
+2. Currently, the thinking budget is incorrectly calculated as 80% of maxTokens (8192), resulting in 6553 tokens
+3. Claude 3.7 actually supports a much larger thinking budget (up to 64000 tokens)
+4. The PR adds a `thinkingConfig` property with `maxBudget: 64000` to model definitions
+5. It updates API handlers to use this value when reasoning mode is enabled
+6. It enhances the slider component to calculate max values based on model-specific percentages
+7. Comprehensive tests were added to verify the calculations
+
+## Step 4: Ask for User Confirmation
+
+```xml
+<ask_followup_question>
+<question>Based on my review of PR #3627, I recommend approving this PR. Here's my justification:
+
+1. The PR correctly fixes the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models
+2. It properly implements the thinkingConfig.maxBudget property (64000) for Claude 3.7 models
+3. It applies the appropriate percentage (50%) for the slider calculation
+4. The changes are well-tested with comprehensive unit tests
+5. The implementation is clean and follows the project's coding standards
+6. The PR includes helpful screenshots demonstrating the fix
+
+Would you like me to proceed with approving this PR?</question>
+<options>["Yes, approve the PR", "No, I'd like to discuss further", "Let me review it myself first"]</options>
+</ask_followup_question>
+```
+
+## Step 5: Ask if User Wants a Comment Drafted
+
+```xml
+<ask_followup_question>
+<question>Would you like me to draft a comment for this PR that you can copy and paste?</question>
+<options>["Yes, please draft a comment", "No, I'll handle the comment myself"]</options>
+</ask_followup_question>
+```
+
+## Step 6: Make a Decision
+
+```bash
+# Option 1: Simple one-line comment
+gh pr review 3627 --approve --body "This PR looks good! It correctly fixes the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models."
+
+# Option 2: Multi-line comment with proper whitespace formatting
+cat << EOF | gh pr review 3627 --approve --body-file -
+This PR looks good! It correctly fixes the thinking mode budget calculation for Claude 3.7 models.
+
+I particularly like:
+1. The proper implementation of thinkingConfig.maxBudget property (64000)
+2. The appropriate percentage (50%) for the slider calculation
+3. The comprehensive unit tests
+4. The clean implementation that follows project coding standards
+
+Great work!

+<general_guidelines_for_commenting>
+When reviewing a PR, please talk normally and like a friendly reviwer. You should keep it short, and start out by thanking the author of the pr and @ mentioning them.
+
+Whether or not you approve the PR, you should then give a quick summary of the changes without being too verbose or definitive, staying humble like that this is your understanding of the changes. Kind of how I'm talking to you right now.
+
+If you have any suggestions, or things that need to be changed, request changes instead of approving the PR.
+
+Leaving inline comments in code is good, but only do so if you have something specific to say about the code. And make sure you leave those comments first, and then request changes in the PR with a short comment explaining the overall theme of what you're asking them to change.
+</general_guidelines_for_commenting>
+
+<example_comments_that_i_have_written_before>
+<brief_approve_comment>
+Looks good, though we should make this generic for all providers & models at some point
+</brief_approve_comment>
+<brief_approve_comment>
+Will this work for models that may not match across OR/Gemini? Like the thinking models?
+</brief_approve_comment>
+<approve_comment>
+This looks great! I like how you've handled the global endpoint support - adding it to the ModelInfo interface makes total sense since it's just another capability flag, similar to how we handle other model features.
+
+The filtered model list approach is clean and will be easier to maintain than hardcoding which models work with global endpoints. And bumping the genai library was obviously needed for this to work.
+
+Thanks for adding the docs about the limitations too - good for users to know they can't use context caches with global endpoints but might get fewer 429 errors.
+</approve_comment>
+<requesst_changes_comment>
+This is awesome. Thanks @scottsus.
+
+My main concern though - does this work for all the possible VS Code themes? We struggled with this initially which is why it's not super styled currently. Please test and share screenshots with the different themes to make sure before we can merge
+</request_changes_comment>
+<request_changes_comment>
+Hey, the PR looks good overall but I'm concerned about removing those timeouts. Those were probably there for a reason - VSCode's UI can be finicky with timing.
+
+Could you add back the timeouts after focusing the sidebar? Something like:
+
+```typescript
+await vscode.commands.executeCommand("claude-dev.SidebarProvider.focus")
+await setTimeoutPromise(100) // Give UI time to update
+visibleWebview = WebviewProvider.getSidebarInstance()
+```
+
+</request_changes_comment>
+<request_changes_comment>
+Heya @alejandropta thanks for working on this!
+
+A few notes:
+1 - Adding additional info to the environment variables is fairly problematic because env variables get appended to **every single message**. I don't think this is justifiable for a somewhat niche use case.
+2 - Adding this option to settings to include that could be an option, but we want our options to be simple and straightforward for new users
+3 - We're working on revisualizing the way our settings page is displayed/organized, and this could potentially be reconciled once that is in and our settings page is more clearly delineated.
+
+So until the settings page is update, and this is added to settings in a way that's clean and doesn't confuse new users, I don't think we can merge this. Please bear with us.
+</request_changes_comment>
+<request_changes_comment>
+Also, don't forget to add a changeset since this fixes a user-facing bug.
+
+The architectural change is solid - moving the focus logic to the command handlers makes sense. Just don't want to introduce subtle timing issues by removing those timeouts.

+````
+
+When I get a new PR to review, I used to manually gather context: checking the PR description, examining the diff, looking at surrounding files, and finally forming an opinion. Now I just:
+
+1. Type `/pr-review.md` in chat
+2. Paste in the PR number
+3. Let Cline handle everything else
+
+My workflow uses the `gh` command-line tool and Cline's built in `ask_followup_question` to:
+
+-   Pull the PR description and comments
+-   Examine the diff
+-   Check surrounding files for context
+-   Analyze potential issues
+-   Asks me if it's cool approve it if everything looks good, with justification for why it should be approved
+-   If I say "yes," Cline automatically approves the PR with the `gh` command
+
+This has taken my PR review process from a manual, multi-step operation to a single command that gives me everything I need to make an informed decision.
+
+> This is just one example of a workflow file. You can find more in our [prompts repository](https://github.com/cline/prompts) for inspiration.
+
+## Building Your Own Workflows
+
+The beauty of workflows is they're completely customizable to your needs. You might create workflows for all kinds of repetitive tasks:
+
+-   For releases, you could have a workflow that grabs all merged PRs, builds a changelog, and handles version bumps.
+-   Setting up new projects is perfect for workflows. Just run one command to create your folder structure, install dependencies, and set up configs.
+-   Need to create a report? Create a workflow that grabs stats from different sources and formats them exactly how you like. You can even visualize them with a charting library and then make a presentation out of it with a library like [slidev](https://sli.dev/).
+-   You can even use workflows to draft messages to your team using an MCP server like Slack or Whatsapp after you submit a PR.
+
+With Workflows, your imagination is the limit. The true potential comes from spotting those annoying repetitive tasks you do all the time.
+
+If you can describe something as "first I do X, then Y, then Z" - that's a perfect workflow candidate.
+
+Start with something small that bugs you, turn it into a workflow, and keep refining it. You'll be shocked how much of your day can be automated this way.

+title: "Model Selection Guide"
+description: "Last updated: Feb 5, 2025."

+
+## Understanding Context Windows
+
+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:
+
+-   Your code files and conversations
+-   The assistant's responses
+-   Any documentation or additional context provided
+
+Context windows are measured in tokens (roughly 3/4 of a word in English). Different models have different context window sizes:
+
+-   Claude 3.5 Sonnet: 200K tokens
+-   DeepSeek Models: 128K tokens
+-   Gemini Flash 2.0: 1M tokens
+-   Gemini 1.5 Pro: 2M tokens
+
+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.
+
+Cline helps you manage this limitation with its Context Window Progress Bar, which shows:
+
+-   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 caption="Visual representation of the context window usage in Cline">
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(11).png"
+		alt="Context window progress bar example"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+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.
+

+
+### A Note on Local Models
+
+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._

+title: "Context Management"
+description: "Context is key to getting the most out of Cline"
+---
+
+> 💡 **Quick Reference**
+>
+> -   Context = The information Cline knows about your project
+> -   Context Window = How much information Cline can hold at once
+> -   Use context files to maintain project knowledge
+> -   Reset when the context window gets full
+
+## Understanding Context & Context Windows
+
+<Frame caption="In a world of infinite context, the context window is what Cline currently has available">
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(2).png"
+		alt="In a world of infinite context, the context window is what Cline currently has available"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+Think of working with Cline like collaborating with a thorough, proactive teammate:
+
+### How Context is Built
+
+Cline actively builds context in two ways:
+
+1. **Automatic Context Gathering (i.e. Cline-driven)**
+    - Proactively reads related files
+    - Explores project structure
+    - Analyzes patterns and relationships
+    - Maps dependencies and imports
+    - Asks clarifying questions
+2. **User-Guided Context**
+    - Share specific files
+    - Provide documentation
+    - Answer Cline's questions
+    - Guide focus areas
+    - Share design thoughts and requirements
+
+💡 **Key Point**: Cline isn't passive - it actively seeks to understand your project. You can either let it explore or guide its focus, especially in [Plan](https://docs.cline.bot/features/plan-and-act) mode.
+
+### Context & Context Windows
+
+Think of context like a whiteboard you and Cline share:
+
+-   **Context** is all the information available:
+    -   What Cline has discovered
+    -   What you've shared
+    -   Your conversation history
+    -   Project requirements
+    -   Previous decisions
+-   **Context Window** is the size of the whiteboard itself:
+    -   Measured in tokens (1 token ≈ 3/4 of an English word)
+    -   Each model has a fixed size:
+        -   Claude 3.5 Sonnet: 200,000 tokens
+        -   DeepSeek: 64,000 tokens
+    -   When the whiteboard is full, you need to erase (clear context) to write more
+        -   [How Cline manages context under the hood](https://cline.bot/blog/understanding-the-new-context-window-progress-bar-in-cline)
+
+⚠️ **Important**: Having a large context window (like Claude's 200k tokens) doesn't mean you should fill it completely. Just like a cluttered whiteboard, too much information can make it harder to focus on what's important.
+
+## Understanding the Context Window Progress Bar
+
+Cline provides a visual way to monitor your context window usage through a progress bar:
+
+<Frame caption="Visual representation of the context window usage">
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(1)%20(1).png"
+		alt="Context window progress bar"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+### Reading the Bar
+
+-   ↑ shows input tokens (what you've sent to the LLM)
+-   ↓ shows output tokens (what the LLM has generated)
+-   The progress bar visualizes how much of your context window you've used
+-   The total shows your model's maximum capacity (e.g., 200k for Claude 3.5-Sonnet)
+
+### When to Watch the Bar
+
+-   During long coding sessions
+-   When working with multiple files
+-   Before starting complex tasks
+-   When Cline seems to lose context
+
+💡 **Tip**: Consider starting a fresh session when usage reaches 70-80% to maintain optimal performance.
+
+## Working with Context Files
+
+Context files help maintain understanding across sessions. They serve as documentation specifically designed to help AI assistants understand your project.
+
+#### Approaches to Context Files
+
+1. **Evergreen Project Context (i.e.** [**Memory Bank**](https://docs.cline.bot/prompting/cline-memory-bank)**)**
+    - Living documentation that evolves with your project
+    - Updated as architecture and patterns emerge
+    - Example: The Memory Bank pattern maintains files like `techContext.md` and `systemPatterns.md`
+    - Useful for long-running projects and teams
+2. **Task-Specific Context (i.e.** [**Structured Approach**](https://cline.bot/blog/building-advanced-software-with-cline-a-structured-approach)**)**
+
+    - Created for specific implementation tasks
+    - Document requirements, constraints, and decisions
+    - Example:
+
+        ```markdown
+        # auth-system-implementation.md
+
+        ## Requirements
+
+        -   OAuth2 implementation
+        -   Support for Google and GitHub
+        -   Rate limiting on auth endpoints
+
+        ## Technical Decisions
+
+        -   Using Passport.js for provider integration
+        -   JWT for session management
+        -   Redis for rate limiting
+        ```
+
+3. **Knowledge Transfer Docs**
+    - Switch to plan mode and ask Cline to document everything you've accomplished so far, along with the remaining steps, in a markdown file.
+    - Copy the contents of the markdown file.
+    - Start a new task using that content as context.
+
+#### Using Context Files Effectively
+
+1. **Structure and Format**
+    - Use clear, consistent organization
+    - Include relevant examples
+    - Link related concepts
+    - Keep information focused
+2. **Maintenance**
+    - Update after significant changes
+    - Version control your context files
+    - Remove outdated information
+    - Document key decisions
+
+## Practical Tips
+
+1. **Starting New Projects**
+    - Let Cline explore the codebase
+    - Answer its questions about structure and patterns
+    - Consider setting up basic context files
+    - Document key design decisions
+2. **Ongoing Development**
+    - Update context files with significant changes
+    - Share relevant documentation
+    - Use Plan mode for complex discussions
+    - Start fresh sessions when needed
+3. **Team Projects**
+    - Share common context files (consider using [.clinerules](https://docs.cline.bot/features/cline-rules) files in project roots)
+    - Document architectural decisions
+    - Maintain consistent patterns
+    - Keep documentation current
+
+Remember: The goal is to help Cline maintain consistent understanding of your project across sessions.

+title: "Adding MCP Servers from GitHub"
+---
+
+This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough of how to use Cline to build an existing MCP server from a GitHub repository.
+
+## **Finding an MCP Server**
+
+There are multiple places online to find MCP servers:
+
+-   **Cline can automatically add MCP servers to its list, which you can then edit.** Cline can clone repositories directly from GitHub and build the servers for you.
+-   **GitHub:** Two of the most common places to find MCP servers on GitHub include:
+    -   [Official MCP servers repository](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers)
+    -   [Awesome-MCP servers repository](https://github.com/punkpeye/awesome-mcp-servers)
+-   **Online directories:** Several websites list MCP servers including:
+
+    -   [mcpservers.org](https://mcpservers.org/)
+    -   [mcp.so](https://mcp.so/)
+    -   [glama.ai/mcp/servers](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers)
+
+    These directories allow users to sort the servers by various criteria such as downloads, date, stars, and use case. Each entry provides information such as features, tools, and configuration instructions.
+
+-   **PulseMCP:** This website has a blog post discussing how AI could use MCP servers to make websites obsolete. PulseMCP also includes an FAQ section about MCP servers: [https://www.pulsemcp.com/](https://www.pulsemcp.com/)
+
+## **Building with Cline**
+
+1. **Initiate the Process:** Provide Cline with the following information:
+    - **GitHub Repository URL:** The URL of the server's repository.
+    - **README.md Contents:** This is optional but helpful for Cline to understand the server's purpose and configuration. You can copy the README.md file from the GitHub repository.
+2. **Example Interaction with Cline:**
+
+    ```
+    User: "Cline, I want to add the MCP server for Brave browser control. Here's the GitHub link: @https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/tree/main/src/brave-search Can you add it?"
+
+    Cline: "OK. Cloning the repository to the MCP directory. It needs to be built because it has a 'package.json' file. Should I run 'npm run build'?"
+
+    User: "Yes, build it."
+
+    Cline: "Build complete. This server needs a browser path. Where's your Brave browser executable?"
+
+    User: "It's in '/Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser'."
+
+    Cline: "OK. I've updated the server config with that path and added it to 'cline_mcp_settings.json'. Anything else?"
+
+    User: "No, that's all. Let's test it."
+
+    Cline: "Great! Starting the MCP Inspector to test the server connection. After that, we can try controlling the browser from Cline."
+    ```
+
+3. **Cline's Actions:** Based on your instructions, Cline will perform the following:
+    - **Repository Cloning:** Cline will clone the repository to your local machine, usually in the directory specified in your configuration.
+    - **Tweaking:** You can guide Cline to modify the server's configuration. For instance:
+        - **User:** "This server requires an API key. Can you find where it should be added?"
+        - Cline may automatically update the `cline_mcp_settings.json` file or other relevant files based on your instructions.
+    - **Building the Server:** Cline will run the appropriate build command for the server, which is commonly `npm run build`.
+    - **Adding Server to Settings:** Cline will add the server's configuration to the `cline_mcp_settings.json` file.
+
+## **Testing and Troubleshooting**
+
+1. **Test the Server:** Once Cline finishes the build process, test the server to make sure it works as expected. Cline can assist you if you encounter any problems.
+2. **MCP Inspector:** You can use the MCP Inspector to test the server's connection and functionality.
+
+## **Best Practices**
+
+-   **Understand the Basics:** While Cline simplifies the process, it's beneficial to have a basic understanding of the server's code, the MCP protocol ([learn more](/mcp/mcp-overview)), and how to configure the server. This allows for more effective troubleshooting and customization.
+-   **Clear Instructions:** Provide clear and specific instructions to Cline throughout the process.
+-   **Testing:** Thoroughly test the server after installation and configuration to ensure it functions correctly.
+-   **Version Control:** Use a version control system (like Git) to track changes to the server's code.
+-   **Stay Updated:** Keep your MCP servers updated to benefit from the latest features and security patches.

+				"API_KEY": "your_api_key"
+			},
+			"alwaysAllow": ["tool1", "tool2"],
+			"disabled": false
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+_Example of MCP Server config in Cline (STDIO Transport)_
+
+---
+
+## Understanding Transport Types
+
+MCP supports two transport types for server communication:
+
+### STDIO Transport
+
+Used for local servers running on your machine:
+
+-   Communicates via standard input/output streams
+-   Lower latency (no network overhead)
+-   Better security (no network exposure)
+-   Simpler setup (no HTTP server needed)
+-   Runs as a child process on your machine
+
+For more in-depth information about how STDIO transport works, see [MCP Transport Mechanisms](/mcp/mcp-transport-mechanisms).
+
+STDIO configuration example:
+
+```json
+{
+	"mcpServers": {
+		"local-server": {
+			"command": "node",
+			"args": ["/path/to/server.js"],
+			"env": {
+				"API_KEY": "your_api_key"
+			},
+			"alwaysAllow": ["tool1", "tool2"],
+			"disabled": false
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+### SSE Transport
+
+Used for remote servers accessed over HTTP/HTTPS:
+
+-   Communicates via Server-Sent Events protocol
+-   Can be hosted on a different machine
+-   Supports multiple client connections
+-   Requires network access
+-   Allows centralized deployment and management
+
+For more in-depth information about how SSE transport works, see [MCP Transport Mechanisms](/mcp/mcp-transport-mechanisms).
+
+SSE configuration example:
+
+```json
+{
+	"mcpServers": {
+		"remote-server": {
+			"url": "https://your-server-url.com/mcp",
+			"headers": {
+				"Authorization": "Bearer your-token"
+			},
+			"alwaysAllow": ["tool3"],
+			"disabled": false
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Using MCP Tools in Your Workflow
+
+After configuring an MCP server, Cline will automatically detect available tools and resources. To use them:
+
+1. Type your request in Cline's conversation window
+2. Cline will identify when an MCP tool can help with your task
+3. Approve the tool use when prompted (or use auto-approval)
+
+Example: "Analyze the performance of my API" might use an MCP tool that tests API endpoints.
+
+## Troubleshooting MCP Servers
+
+Common issues and solutions:
+
+-   **Server Not Responding:** Check if the server process is running and verify network connectivity
+-   **Permission Errors:** Ensure proper API keys and credentials are configured in your `mcp_settings.json` file
+-   **Tool Not Available:** Confirm the server is properly implementing the tool and it's not disabled in settings
+-   **Slow Performance:** Try adjusting the network timeout value for the specific MCP server

+-   The MCP settings file is updated with your server configuration
+-   This file is located at: `/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json`
+-   Environment variables (like API keys) are securely stored
+-   The server path is registered
+
+### 3. Server Launch
+
+-   Cline detects the configuration change
+-   Cline launches your server as a separate process
+-   Communication is established via stdio or HTTP
+
+### 4. Integration with Cline
+
+-   Your server's capabilities are added to Cline's system prompt
+-   Tools become available via `use_mcp_tool` commands
+-   Resources become available via `access_mcp_resource` commands
+-   Cline can now use these capabilities when prompted by the user
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### System Requirements
+
+Make sure your system meets these requirements:
+
+-   **Node.js 18.x or newer**
+    -   Check by running: `node --version`
+    -   Install from: https://nodejs.org/
+    -   Required for JavaScript/TypeScript implementations
+-   **Python 3.10 or newer**
+    -   Check by running: `python --version`
+    -   Install from: https://python.org/
+    -   Note: Some specialized implementations may require Python 3.11+
+-   **UV Package Manager**
+    -   Modern Python package manager for dependency isolation
+    -   Install using:
+        ```bash
+        curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
+        ```
+        Or: `pip install uv`
+    -   Verify with: `uv --version`
+
+If any of these commands fail or show older versions, please install/update before continuing!
+
+### Common Installation Issues
+
+-   Ensure your internet connection is stable
+-   Check that you have the necessary permissions to install new software
+-   Verify that the API key was entered correctly (if required)
+-   Check the server status in the MCP settings UI for any error messages
+
+### How to Remove an MCP Server
+
+To completely remove a faulty MCP server:
+
+1. Open the MCP settings file: `/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json`
+2. Delete the entire entry for your server from the `mcpServers` object
+3. Save the file
+4. Restart Cline
+
+### I'm Still Getting an Error
+
+If you're getting an error when using an MCP server, you can try the following:
+
+-   Check the MCP settings file for errors
+-   Use a Claude Sonnet model for installation
+-   Verify that paths to your server's files are correct
+-   Ensure all required environment variables are set
+-   Check if another process is using the same port (for HTTP-based servers)
+-   Try removing and reinstalling the server (remove from both the `cline_mcp_settings.json` file and the `/Users/<username>/Documents/Cline/MCP/` directory)
+-   Use a terminal and run the command with its arguments directly. This will allow you to see the same errors that Cline is seeing
+
+## MCP Server Rules
+
+Cline is already aware of your active MCP servers and what they are for, but when you have a lot of MCP servers enabled, it can be useful to define when to use each server.
+
+Utilize a `.clinerules` file or custom instructions to support intelligent MCP server activation through keyword-based triggers, making Cline's tool selection more intuitive and context-aware.
+
+### How MCP Rules Work
+
+MCP Rules group your connected MCP servers into functional categories and define trigger keywords that activate them automatically when detected in your conversations with Cline.
+
+```json
+{
+	"mcpRules": {
+		"webInteraction": {
+			"servers": ["firecrawl-mcp-server", "fetch-mcp"],
+			"triggers": ["web", "scrape", "browse", "website"],
+			"description": "Tools for web browsing and scraping"
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+### Configuration Structure
+
+1. **Categories**: Group related servers (e.g., "webInteraction", "mediaAndDesign")
+2. **Servers**: List server names in each category
+3. **Triggers**: Keywords that activate these servers
+4. **Description**: Human-readable category explanation
+
+### Benefits of MCP Rules
+
+-   **Contextual Tool Selection**: Cline selects appropriate tools based on conversation context
+-   **Reduced Friction**: No need to manually specify which tool to use
+-   **Organized Capabilities**: Logically group related tools and servers
+-   **Prioritization**: Handle ambiguous cases with explicit priority ordering
+
+### Example Usage
+
+When you write "Can you scrape this website?", Cline detects "scrape" and "website" as triggers, automatically selecting web-related MCP servers.
+
+For finance tasks like "What's Apple's stock price?", keywords like "stock" and "price" trigger finance-related servers.
+
+### Quick Start Template
+
+```json
+{
+	"mcpRules": {
+		"category1": {
+			"servers": ["server-name-1", "server-name-2"],
+			"triggers": ["keyword1", "keyword2", "phrase1", "phrase2"],
+			"description": "Description of what these tools do"
+		},
+		"category2": {
+			"servers": ["server-name-3"],
+			"triggers": ["keyword3", "keyword4", "phrase3"],
+			"description": "Description of what these tools do"
+		},
+		"category3": {
+			"servers": ["server-name-4", "server-name-5"],
+			"triggers": ["keyword5", "keyword6", "phrase4"],
+			"description": "Description of what these tools do"
+		}
+	},
+	"defaultBehavior": {
+		"priorityOrder": ["category1", "category2", "category3"],
+		"fallbackBehavior": "Ask user which tool would be most appropriate"
+	}
+}
+```
+
+Add this to your `.clinerules` file or to your custom instructions to make Cline's MCP server selection more intuitive and context-aware.

+
+## Overview
+
+Model Context Protocol is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications; it provides a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools. 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.
+

+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/mcp-diagram.png"
+		alt="MCP diagram showing how MCP servers connect LLMs to external tools and data sources"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+## 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
+    -   Post updates to Twitter based on specific triggers
+    -   Retrieve real-time weather data for location-based services
+-   **Browser Automation:**
+    -   Automate web application testing
+    -   Scrape e-commerce sites for price comparisons
+    -   Generate screenshots for website monitoring
+-   **Database Queries:**
+    -   Generate weekly sales reports
+    -   Analyze customer behavior patterns
+    -   Create real-time dashboards for business metrics
+-   **Project and Task Management:**
+    -   Automate Jira ticket creation based on code commits
+    -   Generate weekly progress reports
+    -   Create task dependencies based on project requirements
+-   **Codebase Documentation:**
+    -   Generate API documentation from code comments
+    -   Create architecture diagrams from code structure
+    -   Maintain up-to-date README files
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Cline does not come with any pre-installed MCP servers. You'll need to find and install them separately.
+
+**Choose the right approach for your needs:**
+
+-   **Community Repositories:** Check for community-maintained lists of MCP servers on GitHub. See [Adding MCP Servers from Github](/mcp/adding-mcp-servers-from-github)
+-   **Cline Marketplace:** Install one from Cline's [MCP Marketplace](/mcp/mcp-marketplace)
+-   **Ask Cline:** You can ask Cline to help you find or create MCP servers
+-   **Build Your Own:** Create custom MCP servers using the [MCP SDK](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/)
+-   **Customize Existing Servers:** Modify existing servers to fit your specific requirements
+
+## Integration with Cline
+
+Cline simplifies the building and use of MCP servers through its AI capabilities.
+
+### Building MCP Servers
+
+-   **Natural language understanding:** Instruct Cline in natural language to build an MCP server by describing its functionalities. Cline will interpret your instructions and generate the necessary code.
+-   **Cloning and building servers:** Cline can clone existing MCP server repositories from GitHub and build them automatically.
+-   **Configuration and dependency management:** Cline handles configuration files, environment variables, and dependencies.
+-   **Troubleshooting and debugging:** Cline helps identify and resolve errors during development.
+
+### Using MCP Servers
+
+-   **Tool execution:** Cline seamlessly integrates with MCP servers, allowing you to execute their defined tools.
+-   **Context-aware interactions:** Cline can intelligently suggest using relevant tools based on conversation context.
+-   **Dynamic integrations:** Combine multiple MCP server capabilities for complex tasks. For example, Cline could use a GitHub server to get data and a Notion server to create a formatted report.
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+When working with MCP servers, it's important to follow security best practices:
+
+-   **Authentication:** Always use secure authentication methods for API access
+-   **Environment Variables:** Store sensitive information in environment variables
+-   **Access Control:** Limit server access to authorized users only
+-   **Data Validation:** Validate all inputs to prevent injection attacks
+-   **Logging:** Implement secure logging practices without exposing sensitive data

+
+> 🚀 **Build and share your MCP servers with the world.** Once you've created a great MCP server, submit it to the [Cline MCP Marketplace](https://github.com/cline/mcp-marketplace) to make it discoverable and one-click installable by thousands of developers.
+
+## What Are MCP Servers?
+
+Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers extend AI assistants like Cline by giving them the ability to:
+
+-   Access external APIs and services
+-   Retrieve real-time data
+-   Control applications and local systems
+-   Perform actions beyond what text prompts alone can achieve
+
+Without MCP, AI assistants are powerful but isolated. With MCP, they gain the ability to interact with virtually any digital system.
+
+## The Development Protocol
+
+The heart of effective MCP server development is following a structured protocol. This protocol is implemented through a `.clinerules` file that lives at the **root** of your MCP working directory (/Users/your-name/Documents/Cline/MCP).
+
+### Using `.clinerules` Files
+
+A `.clinerules` file is a special configuration that Cline reads automatically when working in the directory where it's placed. These files:
+
+-   Configure Cline's behavior and enforce best practices
+-   Switch Cline into a specialized MCP development mode
+-   Provide a step-by-step protocol for building servers
+-   Implement safety measures like preventing premature completion
+-   Guide you through planning, implementation, and testing phases
+
+Here's the complete MCP Server Development Protocol that should be placed in your `.clinerules` file:
+
+````markdown
+# MCP Server Development Protocol
+
+⚠️ CRITICAL: DO NOT USE attempt_completion BEFORE TESTING ⚠️
+
+## Step 1: Planning (PLAN MODE)
+
+-   What problem does this tool solve?
+-   What API/service will it use?
+-   What are the authentication requirements?
+    □ Standard API key
+    □ OAuth (requires separate setup script)
+    □ Other credentials
+
+## Step 2: Implementation (ACT MODE)
+
+1. Bootstrap
+
+    - For web services, JavaScript integration, or Node.js environments:
+        ```bash
+        npx @modelcontextprotocol/create-server my-server
+        cd my-server
+        npm install
+        ```
+    - For data science, ML workflows, or Python environments:
+        ```bash
+        pip install mcp
+        # Or with uv (recommended)
+        uv add "mcp[cli]"
+        ```
+
+2. Core Implementation
+
+    - Use MCP SDK
+    - Implement comprehensive logging
+        - TypeScript (for web/JS projects):
+            ```typescript
+            console.error("[Setup] Initializing server...")
+            console.error("[API] Request to endpoint:", endpoint)
+            console.error("[Error] Failed with:", error)
+            ```
+        - Python (for data science/ML projects):
+            ```python
+            import logging
+            logging.error('[Setup] Initializing server...')
+            logging.error(f'[API] Request to endpoint: {endpoint}')
+            logging.error(f'[Error] Failed with: {str(error)}')
+            ```
+    - Add type definitions
+    - Handle errors with context
+    - Implement rate limiting if needed
+
+3. Configuration
+
+    - Get credentials from user if needed
+    - Add to MCP settings:
+
+        - For TypeScript projects:
+            ```json
+            {
+            	"mcpServers": {
+            		"my-server": {
+            			"command": "node",
+            			"args": ["path/to/build/index.js"],
+            			"env": {
+            				"API_KEY": "key"
+            			},
+            			"disabled": false,
+            			"autoApprove": []
+            		}
+            	}
+            }
+            ```
+        - For Python projects:
+
+            ```bash
+            # Directly with command line
+            mcp install server.py -v API_KEY=key
+
+            # Or in settings.json
+            {
+              "mcpServers": {
+                "my-server": {
+                  "command": "python",
+                  "args": ["server.py"],
+                  "env": {
+                    "API_KEY": "key"
+                  },
+                  "disabled": false,
+                  "autoApprove": []
+                }
+              }
+            }
+            ```
+
+## Step 3: Testing (BLOCKER ⛔️)
+
+<thinking>
+BEFORE using attempt_completion, I MUST verify:
+□ Have I tested EVERY tool?
+□ Have I confirmed success from the user for each test?
+□ Have I documented the test results?
+
+If ANY answer is "no", I MUST NOT use attempt_completion.
+</thinking>
+
+1. Test Each Tool (REQUIRED)
+   □ Test each tool with valid inputs
+   □ Verify output format is correct
+   ⚠️ DO NOT PROCEED UNTIL ALL TOOLS TESTED
+
+## Step 4: Completion
+
+❗ STOP AND VERIFY:
+□ Every tool has been tested with valid inputs
+□ Output format is correct for each tool
+
+Only after ALL tools have been tested can attempt_completion be used.
+
+## Key Requirements
+
+-   ✓ Must use MCP SDK
+-   ✓ Must have comprehensive logging
+-   ✓ Must test each tool individually
+-   ✓ Must handle errors gracefully
+-   ⛔️ NEVER skip testing before completion
+````
+
+When this `.clinerules` file is present in your working directory, Cline will:
+
+1. Start in **PLAN MODE** to design your server before implementation
+2. Enforce proper implementation patterns in **ACT MODE**
+3. Require testing of all tools before allowing completion
+4. Guide you through the entire development lifecycle
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Creating an MCP server requires just a few simple steps to get started:
+
+### 1. Create a `.clinerules` file (🚨 IMPORTANT)
+
+First, add a `.clinerules` file to the root of your MCP working directory using the protocol above. This file configures Cline to use the MCP development protocol when working in this folder.
+
+### 2. Start a Chat with a Clear Description
+
+Begin your Cline chat by clearly describing what you want to build. Be specific about:
+
+-   The purpose of your MCP server
+-   Which API or service you want to integrate with
+-   Any specific tools or features you need
+
+For example:
+
+```plaintext
+I want to build an MCP server for the AlphaAdvantage financial API.
+It should allow me to get real-time stock data, perform technical
+analysis, and retrieve company financial information.
+```
+
+### 3. Work Through the Protocol
+
+Cline will automatically start in PLAN MODE, guiding you through the planning process:
+
+-   Discussing the problem scope
+-   Reviewing API documentation
+-   Planning authentication methods
+-   Designing tool interfaces
+
+When ready, switch to ACT MODE using the toggle at the bottom of the chat to begin implementation.
+
+### 4. Provide API Documentation Early
+
+One of the most effective ways to help Cline build your MCP server is to share official API documentation right at the start:
+
+```plaintext
+Here's the API documentation for the service:
+[Paste API documentation here]
+```
+
+Providing comprehensive API details (endpoints, authentication, data structures) significantly improves Cline's ability to implement an effective MCP server.
+
+## Understanding the Two Modes
+
+### PLAN MODE
+
+In this collaborative phase, you work with Cline to design your MCP server:
+
+-   Define the problem scope
+-   Choose appropriate APIs
+-   Plan authentication methods
+-   Design the tool interfaces
+-   Determine data formats
+
+### ACT MODE
+
+Once planning is complete, Cline helps implement the server:
+
+-   Set up the project structure
+-   Write the implementation code
+-   Configure settings
+-   Test each component thoroughly
+-   Finalize documentation
+
+## Case Study: AlphaAdvantage Stock Analysis Server
+
+Let's walk through the development process of our AlphaAdvantage MCP server, which provides stock data analysis and reporting capabilities.
+
+### Planning Phase
+
+<Frame>
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/planning-phase.gif"
+		alt="Planning phase demonstration"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+During the planning phase, we:
+
+1. **Defined the problem**: Users need access to financial data, stock analysis, and market insights directly through their AI assistant
+2. **Selected the API**: AlphaAdvantage API for financial market data
+    - Standard API key authentication
+    - Rate limits of 5 requests per minute (free tier)
+    - Various endpoints for different financial data types
+3. **Designed the tools needed**:
+    - Stock overview information (current price, company details)
+    - Technical analysis with indicators (RSI, MACD, etc.)
+    - Fundamental analysis (financial statements, ratios)
+    - Earnings report data
+    - News and sentiment analysis
+4. **Planned data formatting**:
+    - Clean, well-formatted markdown output
+    - Tables for structured data
+    - Visual indicators (↑/↓) for trends
+    - Proper formatting of financial numbers
+
+### Implementation
+
+<Frame>
+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/building-mcp-plugin.gif"
+		alt="Building MCP plugin demonstration"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+We began by bootstrapping the project:
+
+```bash
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/create-server alphaadvantage-mcp
+cd alphaadvantage-mcp
+npm install axios node-cache
+```
+
+Next, we structured our project with:
+
+```plaintext
+src/
+  ├── api/
+  │   └── alphaAdvantageClient.ts  # API client with rate limiting & caching
+  ├── formatters/
+  │   └── markdownFormatter.ts     # Output formatters for clean markdown
+  └── index.ts                     # Main MCP server implementation
+```
+
+#### API Client Implementation
+
+The API client implementation included:
+
+-   **Rate limiting**: Enforcing the 5 requests per minute limit
+-   **Caching**: Reducing API calls with strategic caching
+-   **Error handling**: Robust error detection and reporting
+-   **Typed interfaces**: Clear TypeScript types for all data
+
+Key implementation details:
+
+```typescript
+/**
+ * Manage rate limiting based on free tier (5 calls per minute)
+ */
+private async enforceRateLimit() {
+  if (this.requestsThisMinute >= 5) {
+    console.error("[Rate Limit] Rate limit reached. Waiting for next minute...");
+    return new Promise<void>((resolve) => {
+      const remainingMs = 60 * 1000 - (Date.now() % (60 * 1000));
+      setTimeout(resolve, remainingMs + 100); // Add 100ms buffer
+    });
+  }
+
+  this.requestsThisMinute++;
+  return Promise.resolve();
+}
+```
+
+#### Markdown Formatting
+
+We implemented formatters to display financial data beautifully:
+
+```typescript
+/**
+ * Format company overview into markdown
+ */
+export function formatStockOverview(overviewData: any, quoteData: any): string {
+	// Extract data
+	const overview = overviewData
+	const quote = quoteData["Global Quote"]
+
+	// Calculate price change
+	const currentPrice = parseFloat(quote["05. price"] || "0")
+	const priceChange = parseFloat(quote["09. change"] || "0")
+	const changePercent = parseFloat(quote["10. change percent"]?.replace("%", "") || "0")
+
+	// Format markdown
+	let markdown = `# ${overview.Symbol} (${overview.Name}) - ${formatCurrency(currentPrice)} ${addTrendIndicator(priceChange)}${changePercent > 0 ? "+" : ""}${changePercent.toFixed(2)}%\n\n`
+
+	// Add more details...
+
+	return markdown
+}
+```
+
+#### Tool Implementation
+
+We defined five tools with clear interfaces:
+
+```typescript
+server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => {
+	console.error("[Setup] Listing available tools")
+
+	return {
+		tools: [
+			{
+				name: "get_stock_overview",
+				description: "Get basic company info and current quote for a stock symbol",
+				inputSchema: {
+					type: "object",
+					properties: {
+						symbol: {
+							type: "string",
+							description: "Stock symbol (e.g., 'AAPL')",
+						},
+						market: {
+							type: "string",
+							description: "Optional market (e.g., 'US')",
+							default: "US",
+						},
+					},
+					required: ["symbol"],
+				},
+			},
+			// Additional tools defined here...
+		],
+	}
+})
+```
+
+Each tool's handler included:
+
+-   Input validation
+-   API client calls with error handling
+-   Markdown formatting of responses
+-   Comprehensive logging
+
+### Testing Phase
+
+This critical phase involved systematically testing each tool:
+
+1. First, we configured the MCP server in the settings:
+
+```json
+{
+	"mcpServers": {
+		"alphaadvantage-mcp": {
+			"command": "node",
+			"args": ["/path/to/alphaadvantage-mcp/build/index.js"],
+			"env": {
+				"ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY"
+			},
+			"disabled": false,
+			"autoApprove": []
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+2. Then we tested each tool individually:
+
+-   **get_stock_overview**: Retrieved AAPL stock overview information
+
+    ```markdown
+    # AAPL (Apple Inc) - $241.84 ↑+1.91%
+
+    **Sector:** TECHNOLOGY
+    **Industry:** ELECTRONIC COMPUTERS
+    **Market Cap:** 3.63T
+    **P/E Ratio:** 38.26
+    ...

+### Challenges and Solutions
+
+During development, we encountered several challenges:
+
+1. **API Rate Limiting**:
+    - **Challenge**: Free tier limited to 5 calls per minute
+    - **Solution**: Implemented queuing, enforced rate limits, and added comprehensive caching
+2. **Data Formatting**:
+    - **Challenge**: Raw API data not user-friendly
+    - **Solution**: Created formatting utilities for consistent display of financial data
+3. **Timeout Issues**:
+    - **Challenge**: Complex tools making multiple API calls could timeout
+    - **Solution**: Suggested breaking complex tools into smaller pieces, optimizing caching
+
+### Lessons Learned
+
+Our AlphaAdvantage implementation taught us several key lessons:
+
+1. **Plan for API Limits**: Understand and design around API rate limits from the beginning
+2. **Cache Strategically**: Identify high-value caching opportunities to improve performance
+3. **Format for Readability**: Invest in good data formatting for improved user experience
+4. **Test Every Path**: Test all tools individually before completion
+5. **Handle API Complexity**: For APIs requiring multiple calls, design tools with simpler scopes
+
+## Core Implementation Best Practices
+
+### Comprehensive Logging
+
+Effective logging is essential for debugging MCP servers:
+
+```typescript
+// Start-up logging
+console.error("[Setup] Initializing AlphaAdvantage MCP server...")
+
+// API request logging
+console.error(`[API] Getting stock overview for ${symbol}`)
+
+// Error handling with context
+console.error(`[Error] Tool execution failed: ${error.message}`)
+
+// Cache operations
+console.error(`[Cache] Using cached data for: ${cacheKey}`)
+```
+
+### Strong Typing
+
+Type definitions prevent errors and improve maintainability:
+
+```typescript
+export interface AlphaAdvantageConfig {
+	apiKey: string
+	cacheTTL?: Partial<typeof DEFAULT_CACHE_TTL>
+	baseURL?: string
+}
+
+/**
+ * Validate that a stock symbol is provided and looks valid
+ */
+function validateSymbol(symbol: unknown): asserts symbol is string {
+	if (typeof symbol !== "string" || symbol.trim() === "") {
+		throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, "A valid stock symbol is required")
+	}
+
+	// Basic symbol validation (letters, numbers, dots)
+	const symbolRegex = /^[A-Za-z0-9.]+$/
+	if (!symbolRegex.test(symbol)) {
+		throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, `Invalid stock symbol: ${symbol}`)
+	}
+}
+```
+
+### Intelligent Caching
+
+Reduce API calls and improve performance:
+
+```typescript
+// Default cache TTL in seconds
+const DEFAULT_CACHE_TTL = {
+	STOCK_OVERVIEW: 60 * 60, // 1 hour
+	TECHNICAL_ANALYSIS: 60 * 30, // 30 minutes
+	FUNDAMENTAL_ANALYSIS: 60 * 60 * 24, // 24 hours
+	EARNINGS_REPORT: 60 * 60 * 24, // 24 hours
+	NEWS: 60 * 15, // 15 minutes
+}
+
+// Check cache first
+const cachedData = this.cache.get<T>(cacheKey)
+if (cachedData) {
+	console.error(`[Cache] Using cached data for: ${cacheKey}`)
+	return cachedData
+}
+
+// Cache successful responses
+this.cache.set(cacheKey, response.data, cacheTTL)
+```
+
+### Graceful Error Handling
+
+Implement robust error handling that maintains a good user experience:
+
+```typescript
+try {
+	switch (request.params.name) {
+		case "get_stock_overview": {
+			// Implementation...
+		}
+
+		// Other cases...
+
+		default:
+			throw new McpError(ErrorCode.MethodNotFound, `Unknown tool: ${request.params.name}`)
+	}
+} catch (error) {
+	console.error(`[Error] Tool execution failed: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`)
+
+	if (error instanceof McpError) {
+		throw error
+	}
+
+	return {
+		content: [
+			{
+				type: "text",
+				text: `Error: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`,
+			},
+		],
+		isError: true,
+	}
+}
+```
+
+## MCP Resources
+
+Resources let your MCP servers expose data to Cline without executing code. They're perfect for providing context like files, API responses, or database records that Cline can reference during conversations.
+
+### Adding Resources to Your MCP Server
+
+1. **Define the resources** your server will expose:
+
+```typescript
+server.setRequestHandler(ListResourcesRequestSchema, async () => {
+	return {
+		resources: [
+			{
+				uri: "file:///project/readme.md",
+				name: "Project README",
+				mimeType: "text/markdown",
+			},
+		],
+	}
+})
+```
+
+2. **Implement read handlers** to deliver the content:
+
+```typescript
+server.setRequestHandler(ReadResourceRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+	if (request.params.uri === "file:///project/readme.md") {
+		const content = await fs.promises.readFile("/path/to/readme.md", "utf-8")
+		return {
+			contents: [
+				{
+					uri: request.params.uri,
+					mimeType: "text/markdown",
+					text: content,
+				},
+			],
+		}
+	}
+
+	throw new Error("Resource not found")
+})
+```
+
+Resources make your MCP servers more context-aware, allowing Cline to access specific information without requiring you to copy/paste. For more information, refer to the [official documentation](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/concepts/resources).
+
+## Common Challenges and Solutions
+
+### API Authentication Complexities
+
+**Challenge**: APIs often have different authentication methods.
+
+**Solution**:
+
+-   For API keys, use environment variables in the MCP configuration
+-   For OAuth, create a separate script to obtain refresh tokens
+-   Store sensitive tokens securely
+
+```typescript
+// Authenticate using API key from environment
+const API_KEY = process.env.ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY
+if (!API_KEY) {
+	console.error("[Error] Missing ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY environment variable")
+	process.exit(1)
+}
+
+// Initialize API client
+const apiClient = new AlphaAdvantageClient({
+	apiKey: API_KEY,
+})
+```
+
+### Missing or Limited API Features
+
+**Challenge**: APIs may not provide all the functionality you need.
+
+**Solution**:
+
+-   Implement fallbacks using available endpoints
+-   Create simulated functionality where necessary
+-   Transform API data to match your needs
+
+### API Rate Limiting
+
+**Challenge**: Most APIs have rate limits that can cause failures.
+
+**Solution**:
+
+-   Implement proper rate limiting
+-   Add intelligent caching
+-   Provide graceful degradation
+-   Add transparent errors about rate limits
+
+```typescript
+if (this.requestsThisMinute >= 5) {
+	console.error("[Rate Limit] Rate limit reached. Waiting for next minute...")
+	return new Promise<void>((resolve) => {
+		const remainingMs = 60 * 1000 - (Date.now() % (60 * 1000))
+		setTimeout(resolve, remainingMs + 100) // Add 100ms buffer
+	})
+}
+```

+title: "MCP Transport Mechanisms"
+description: "Learn about the two primary transport mechanisms for communication between Cline and MCP servers: Standard Input/Output (STDIO) and Server-Sent Events (SSE). Each has distinct characteristics, advantages, and use cases."
+---
+
+Model Context Protocol (MCP) supports two primary transport mechanisms for communication between Cline and MCP servers: Standard Input/Output (STDIO) and Server-Sent Events (SSE). Each has distinct characteristics, advantages, and use cases.
+
+## STDIO Transport
+
+STDIO transport runs locally on your machine and communicates via standard input/output streams.
+
+### How STDIO Transport Works
+
+1. The client (Cline) spawns an MCP server as a child process
+2. Communication happens through process streams: client writes to server's STDIN, server responds to STDOUT
+3. Each message is delimited by a newline character
+4. Messages are formatted as JSON-RPC 2.0
+
+```plaintext
+Client                    Server
+  |                         |
+  |<---- JSON message ----->| (via STDIN)
+  |                         | (processes request)
+  |<---- JSON message ------| (via STDOUT)
+  |                         |
+```
+
+### STDIO Characteristics
+
+-   **Locality**: Runs on the same machine as Cline
+-   **Performance**: Very low latency and overhead (no network stack involved)
+-   **Simplicity**: Direct process communication without network configuration
+-   **Relationship**: One-to-one relationship between client and server
+-   **Security**: Inherently more secure as no network exposure
+
+### When to Use STDIO
+
+STDIO transport is ideal for:
+
+-   Local integrations and tools running on the same machine
+-   Security-sensitive operations
+-   Low-latency requirements
+-   Single-client scenarios (one Cline instance per server)
+-   Command-line tools or IDE extensions
+
+### STDIO Implementation Example
+
+```typescript
+import { Server } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/index.js"
+import { StdioServerTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio.js"
+
+const server = new Server({ name: "local-server", version: "1.0.0" })
+// Register tools...
+
+// Use STDIO transport
+const transport = new StdioServerTransport(server)
+transport.listen()
+```
+
+## SSE Transport
+
+Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport runs on a remote server and communicates over HTTP/HTTPS.
+
+### How SSE Transport Works
+
+1. The client (Cline) connects to the server's SSE endpoint via HTTP GET request
+2. This establishes a persistent connection where the server can push events to the client
+3. For client-to-server communication, the client makes HTTP POST requests to a separate endpoint
+4. Communication happens over two channels:
+    - Event Stream (GET): Server-to-client updates
+    - Message Endpoint (POST): Client-to-server requests
+
+```plaintext
+Client                             Server
+  |                                  |
+  |---- HTTP GET /events ----------->| (establish SSE connection)
+  |<---- SSE event stream -----------| (persistent connection)
+  |                                  |
+  |---- HTTP POST /message --------->| (client request)
+  |<---- SSE event with response ----| (server response)
+  |                                  |
+```
+
+### SSE Characteristics
+
+-   **Remote Access**: Can be hosted on a different machine from your Cline instance
+-   **Scalability**: Can handle multiple client connections concurrently
+-   **Protocol**: Works over standard HTTP (no special protocols needed)
+-   **Persistence**: Maintains a persistent connection for server-to-client messages
+-   **Authentication**: Can use standard HTTP authentication mechanisms
+
+### When to Use SSE
+
+SSE transport is better for:
+
+-   Remote access across networks
+-   Multi-client scenarios
+-   Public services
+-   Centralized tools that many users need to access
+-   Integration with web services
+
+### SSE Implementation Example
+
+```typescript
+import { Server } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/index.js"
+import { SSEServerTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/sse.js"
+import express from "express"
+
+const app = express()
+const server = new Server({ name: "remote-server", version: "1.0.0" })
+// Register tools...
+
+// Use SSE transport
+const transport = new SSEServerTransport(server)
+app.use("/mcp", transport.requestHandler())
+app.listen(3000, () => {
+	console.log("MCP server listening on port 3000")
+})
+```
+
+## Local vs. Hosted: Deployment Aspects
+
+The choice between STDIO and SSE transports directly impacts how you'll deploy and manage your MCP servers.
+
+### STDIO: Local Deployment Model
+
+STDIO servers run locally on the same machine as Cline, which has several important implications:
+
+-   **Installation**: The server executable must be installed on each user's machine
+-   **Distribution**: You need to provide installation packages for different operating systems
+-   **Updates**: Each instance must be updated separately
+-   **Resources**: Uses the local machine's CPU, memory, and disk
+-   **Access Control**: Relies on the local machine's filesystem permissions
+-   **Integration**: Easy integration with local system resources (files, processes)
+-   **Execution**: Starts and stops with Cline (child process lifecycle)
+-   **Dependencies**: Any dependencies must be installed on the user's machine
+
+#### Practical Example
+
+A local file search tool using STDIO would:
+
+-   Run on the user's machine
+-   Have direct access to the local filesystem
+-   Start when needed by Cline
+-   Not require network configuration
+-   Need to be installed alongside Cline or via a package manager
+
+### SSE: Hosted Deployment Model
+
+SSE servers can be deployed to remote servers and accessed over the network:
+
+-   **Installation**: Installed once on a server, accessed by many users
+-   **Distribution**: Single deployment serves multiple clients
+-   **Updates**: Centralized updates affect all users immediately
+-   **Resources**: Uses server resources, not local machine resources
+-   **Access Control**: Managed through authentication and authorization systems
+-   **Integration**: More complex integration with user-specific resources
+-   **Execution**: Runs as an independent service (often continuously)
+-   **Dependencies**: Managed on the server, not on user machines
+
+#### Practical Example
+
+A database query tool using SSE would:
+
+-   Run on a central server
+-   Connect to databases with server-side credentials
+-   Be continuously available for multiple users
+-   Require proper network security configuration
+-   Be deployed using container or cloud technologies
+
+### Hybrid Approaches
+
+Some scenarios benefit from a hybrid approach:
+
+1. **STDIO with Network Access**: A local STDIO server that acts as a proxy to remote services
+2. **SSE with Local Commands**: A remote SSE server that can trigger operations on the client machine through callbacks
+3. **Gateway Pattern**: STDIO servers for local operations that connect to SSE servers for specialized functions
+
+## Choosing Between STDIO and SSE
+
+| Consideration        | STDIO                    | SSE                                 |
+| -------------------- | ------------------------ | ----------------------------------- |
+| **Location**         | Local machine only       | Local or remote                     |
+| **Clients**          | Single client            | Multiple clients                    |
+| **Performance**      | Lower latency            | Higher latency (network overhead)   |
+| **Setup Complexity** | Simpler                  | More complex (requires HTTP server) |
+| **Security**         | Inherently secure        | Requires explicit security measures |
+| **Network Access**   | Not needed               | Required                            |
+| **Scalability**      | Limited to local machine | Can distribute across network       |
+| **Deployment**       | Per-user installation    | Centralized installation            |
+| **Updates**          | Distributed updates      | Centralized updates                 |
+| **Resource Usage**   | Uses client resources    | Uses server resources               |
+| **Dependencies**     | Client-side dependencies | Server-side dependencies            |

+title: "Telemetry"
+---
+
+### Overview
+
+To help make Cline better for everyone, we collect anonymous usage data that helps us understand how developers are using our open-source AI coding agent. This feedback loop is crucial for improving Cline's capabilities and user experience.
+
+We use PostHog, an open-source analytics platform, for data collection and analysis. Our telemetry implementation is fully transparent - you can review the [source code](https://github.com/cline/cline/blob/main/src/services/telemetry/TelemetryService.ts) to see exactly what we track.
+
+### Tracking Policy
+
+Privacy is our priority. All collected data is anonymized before being sent to PostHog, with no personally identifiable information (PII) included. Your code, prompts, and conversation content always remain private and are never collected.
+
+### What We Track
+
+We collect basic anonymous usage data including:
+
+**Task Interactions:** When tasks start and finish, conversation flow (without content)\
+**Mode and Tool Usage:** Switches between plan/act modes, which tools are being used\
+**Token Usage:** Basic metrics about conversation length to estimate cost (not the actual content of the tokens)\
+**System Context:** OS type and VS Code environment details\
+**UI Activity:** Navigation patterns and feature usage
+
+For complete transparency, you can inspect our [telemetry implementation](https://github.com/cline/cline/blob/main/src/services/telemetry/TelemetryService.ts) to see the exact events we track.
+
+### How to Opt Out
+
+Telemetry in Cline is entirely optional:
+
+-   When you update or install our VS Code extension, you'll see a message about our anonymous telemetry
+-   You can change your preference anytime in settings
+
+Cline also respects VS Code's global telemetry settings. If you've disabled telemetry at the VS Code level, Cline's telemetry will automatically be disabled as well.

+
+[See detailed setup instructions](#getting-started-with-memory-bank)
+
+### Cline Memory Bank Custom Instructions \[COPY THIS]
+
+```
+# 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 core files and optional context files, all in Markdown format. Files build upon each other in a clear hierarchy:
+
+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

+    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.
+
+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.
+```
+
+### What is the Cline Memory Bank?
+
+The Memory Bank is a structured documentation system that allows Cline to maintain context across sessions. It transforms Cline from a stateless assistant into a persistent development partner that can effectively "remember" your project details over time.
+
+#### Key Benefits
+
+-   **Context Preservation**: Maintain project knowledge across sessions
+-   **Consistent Development**: Experience predictable interactions with Cline
+-   **Self-Documenting Projects**: Create valuable project documentation as a side effect
+-   **Scalable to Any Project**: Works with projects of any size or complexity
+-   **Technology Agnostic**: Functions with any tech stack or language
+
+### How Memory Bank Works
+
+The Memory Bank isn't a Cline-specific feature - it's a methodology for managing AI context through structured documentation. When you instruct Cline to "follow custom instructions," it reads the Memory Bank files to rebuild its understanding of your project.

+</Frame>
+
+#### Understanding the Files
+
+Memory Bank files are simply markdown files you create in your project. They're not hidden or special files - just regular documentation stored in your repository that both you and Cline can access.
+
+Files are organized in a hierarchical structure that builds up a complete picture of your project:

+</Frame>
+
+#### Project Brief Tips
+
+-   Start simple - it can be as detailed or high-level as you like
+-   Focus on what matters most to you
+-   Cline will help fill in gaps and ask questions
+-   You can update it as your project evolves
+
+### Working with Cline
+
+#### Core Workflows
+
+**Plan Mode**
+
+Start in this mode for strategy discussions and high-level planning.
+
+**Act Mode**
+
+Use this for implementation and executing specific tasks.
+
+#### Key Commands
+
+-   **"follow your custom instructions"** - This tells Cline to read the Memory Bank files and continue where you left off (use this at the start of tasks)
+-   **"initialize memory bank"** - Use when starting a new project
+-   **"update memory bank"** - Triggers a full documentation review and update during a task
+-   Toggle Plan/Act modes based on your current needs
+
+#### Documentation Updates
+
+Memory Bank updates should automatically occur when:
+
+1. You discover new patterns in your project
+2. After implementing significant changes
+3. When you explicitly request with **"update memory bank"**
+4. When you feel context needs clarification
+
+### Frequently Asked Questions
+
+#### Where are the memory bank files stored?
+
+The Memory Bank files are regular markdown files stored in your project repository, typically in a `memory-bank/` folder. They're not hidden system files - they're designed to be part of your project documentation.
+
+#### Should I use custom instructions or .clinerules?
+
+Either approach works - it's based on your preference:
+
+-   **Custom Instructions**: Applied globally to all Cline conversations. Good for consistent behavior across all projects.
+-   **.clinerules file**: Project-specific and stored in your repository. Good for per-project customization.
+
+Both methods achieve the same goal - the choice depends on whether you want global or local application of the Memory Bank system.
+
+#### Managing Context Windows
+
+As you work with Cline, your context window will eventually fill up (note the progress bar). When you notice Cline's responses slowing down or references to earlier parts of the conversation becoming less accurate, it's time to:
+
+1. Ask Cline to **"update memory bank"** to document the current state
+2. Start a new conversation/task
+3. Ask Cline to **"follow your custom instructions"** in the new conversation
+
+This workflow ensures that important context is preserved in your Memory Bank files before the context window is cleared, allowing you to continue seamlessly in a fresh conversation.
+
+<Frame>
+	<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(18).png" alt="Memory Bank Context Window" />
+</Frame>
+
+#### How often should I update the memory bank?
+
+Update the Memory Bank after significant milestones or changes in direction. For active development, updates every few sessions can be helpful. Use the **"update memory bank"** command when you want to ensure all context is preserved. However, you will notice Cline automatically updating the Memory Bank as well.
+
+#### Does this work with other AI tools beyond Cline?
+
+Yes! The Memory Bank concept is a documentation methodology that can work with any AI assistant that can read documentation files. The specific commands might differ, but the structured approach to maintaining context works across tools.
+
+#### How does the memory bank relate to context window limitations?
+
+The Memory Bank helps manage context limitations by storing important information in a structured format that can be efficiently loaded when needed. This prevents context bloat while ensuring critical information is available.
+
+#### Can the memory bank concept be used for non-coding projects?
+
+Absolutely! The Memory Bank approach works for any project that benefits from structured documentation - from writing books to planning events. The file structure might vary, but the concept remains powerful.
+
+#### Is this different from using README files?
+
+While similar in concept, the Memory Bank provides a more structured and comprehensive approach specifically designed to maintain context across AI sessions. It goes beyond what a single README typically covers.
+
+### Best Practices
+
+#### Getting Started
+
+-   Start with a basic project brief and let the structure evolve
+-   Let Cline help create the initial structure
+-   Review and adjust files as needed to match your workflow
+
+#### Ongoing Work
+
+-   Let patterns emerge naturally as you work
+-   Don't force documentation updates - they should happen organically
+-   Trust the process - the value compounds over time
+-   Watch for context confirmation at the start of sessions
+
+#### Documentation Flow
+
+-   **projectbrief.md** is your foundation
+-   **activeContext.md** changes most frequently
+-   **progress.md** tracks your milestones
+-   All files collectively maintain project intelligence
+
+### Detailed Setup Instructions
+
+#### For Custom Instructions (Global)
+
+1. Open VSCode
+2. Click the Cline extension settings ⚙️
+3. Find "Custom Instructions"
+4. Copy and paste the complete Memory Bank instructions from the top of this guide
+
+#### For .clinerules (Project-Specific)
+
+1. Create a `.clinerules` file in your project root
+2. Copy and paste the Memory Bank instructions from the top of this guide
+3. Save the file
+4. Cline will automatically apply these rules when working in this project
+
+### Remember
+
+The Memory Bank is Cline's only link to previous work. Its effectiveness depends entirely on maintaining clear, accurate documentation and confirming context preservation in every interaction.

+
+Welcome to the Cline Prompting Guide! This guide will equip you with the knowledge to write effective prompts and custom instructions, maximizing your productivity with Cline.
+
+## .clineignore File Guide
+
+### Overview
+
+The `.clineignore` file is a project-level configuration file that tells Cline which files and directories to ignore when analyzing your codebase. Similar to `.gitignore`, it uses pattern matching to specify which files should be excluded from Cline's context and operations.
+
+### Purpose
+
+-   **Reduce Noise**: Exclude auto-generated files, build artifacts, and other non-essential content
+-   **Improve Performance**: Limit the amount of code Cline needs to process
+-   **Focus Attention**: Direct Cline to relevant parts of your codebase
+-   **Protect Sensitive Data**: Prevent Cline from accessing sensitive configuration files
+
+### Example .clineignore File
+
+```
+# Dependencies
+node_modules/
+**/node_modules/
+.pnp
+.pnp.js
+
+# Build outputs
+/build/
+/dist/
+/.next/
+/out/
+
+# Testing
+/coverage/
+
+# Environment variables
+.env
+.env.local
+.env.development.local
+.env.test.local
+.env.production.local
+
+# Large data files
+*.csv
+*.xlsx
+```
+
+## 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.

+
+## Running Local Models with Cline: What You Need to Know 🤖
+
+Cline is a powerful AI coding assistant that uses tool-calling to help you write, analyze, and modify code. While running models locally can save on API costs, there's an important trade-off: local models are significantly less reliable at using these essential tools.
+
+## Why Local Models Are Different 🔬
+
+When you run a "local version" of a model, you're actually running a drastically simplified copy of the original. This process, called distillation, is like trying to compress a professional chef's knowledge into a basic cookbook – you keep the simple recipes but lose the complex techniques and intuition.
+
+Local models are created by training a smaller model to imitate a larger one, but they typically only retain 1-26% of the original model's capacity. This massive reduction means:
+
+-   Less ability to understand complex contexts
+-   Reduced capability for multi-step reasoning
+-   Limited tool-use abilities
+-   Simplified decision-making process
+
+Think of it like running your development environment on a calculator instead of a computer – it might handle basic tasks, but complex operations become unreliable or impossible.
+

+	<img
+		src="https://storage.googleapis.com/cline_public_images/docs/assets/image%20(4).png"
+		alt="Local model comparison diagram"
+	/>
+</Frame>
+
+### What Actually Happens
+
+When you run a local model with Cline:
+
+#### Performance Impact 📉
+
+-   Responses are 5-10x slower than cloud services
+-   System resources (CPU, GPU, RAM) get heavily utilized
+-   Your computer may become less responsive for other tasks
+
+#### Tool Reliability Issues 🛠️
+
+-   Code analysis becomes less accurate
+-   File operations may be unreliable
+-   Browser automation capabilities are reduced
+-   Terminal commands might fail more often
+-   Complex multi-step tasks often break down
+
+### Hardware Requirements 💻
+
+You'll need at minimum:
+
+-   Modern GPU with 8GB+ VRAM (RTX 3070 or better)
+-   32GB+ system RAM
+-   Fast SSD storage
+-   Good cooling solution
+
+Even with this hardware, you'll be running smaller, less capable versions of models:
+
+| Model Size | What You Get                                            |
+| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
+| 7B models  | Basic coding, limited tool use                          |
+| 14B models | Better coding, unstable tool use                        |
+| 32B models | Good coding, inconsistent tool use                      |
+| 70B models | Best local performance, but requires expensive hardware |
+
+Put simply, the cloud (API) versions of these models are the full-bore version of the model. The full version of DeepSeek-R1 is 671B. These distilled models are essentially "watered-down" versions of the cloud model.
+
+### Practical Recommendations 💡
+
+#### Consider This Approach
+
+1. Use cloud models for:
+    - Complex development tasks
+    - When tool reliability is crucial
+    - Multi-step operations
+    - Critical code changes
+2. Use local models for:
+    - Simple code completion
+    - Basic documentation
+    - When privacy is paramount
+    - Learning and experimentation
+
+#### If You Must Go Local
+
+-   Start with smaller models
+-   Keep tasks simple and focused
+-   Save work frequently
+-   Be prepared to switch to cloud models for complex operations
+-   Monitor system resources
+
+### Common Issues 🚨
+
+-   **"Tool execution failed":** Local models often struggle with complex tool chains. Simplify your prompt.
+-   **"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it":** This usually means that the Ollama or LM Studio server isn't running, or is running on a different port/address than Cline is configured to use. Double-check the Base URL address in your API Provider settings.
+-   **"Cline is having trouble...":** Increase your model's context length to its maximum size.
+-   **Slow or incomplete responses:** Local models can be slower than cloud-based models, especially on less powerful hardware. If performance is an issue, try using a smaller model. Expect significantly longer processing times.
+-   **System stability:** Watch for high GPU/CPU usage and temperature
+-   **Context limitations:** Local models often have smaller context windows than cloud models. Break tasks down into smaller pieces.
+
+### Looking Ahead 🔮
+
+Local model capabilities are improving, but they're not yet a complete replacement for cloud services, especially for Cline's tool-based functionality. Consider your specific needs and hardware capabilities carefully before committing to a local-only approach.

+# Cline Evaluation System
+
+This directory contains the evaluation system for benchmarking Cline against various coding evaluation frameworks.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Cline Evaluation System allows you to:
+
+1. Run Cline against standardized coding benchmarks
+2. Collect comprehensive metrics on performance
+3. Generate detailed reports on evaluation results
+4. Compare performance across different models and benchmarks
+
+## Architecture
+
+The evaluation system consists of two main components:
+
+1. **Test Server**: Enhanced HTTP server in `src/services/test/TestServer.ts` that provides detailed task results
+2. **CLI Tool**: Command-line interface in `evals/cli/` for orchestrating evaluations
+

+```
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js 16+
+- VSCode with Cline extension installed
+- Git
+
+### Activation Mechanism
+
+The evaluation system uses an `evals.env` file approach to activate test mode in the Cline extension. When an evaluation is run:
+
+1. The CLI creates an `evals.env` file in the workspace directory
+2. The Cline extension activates due to the `workspaceContains:evals.env` activation event
+3. The extension detects this file and automatically enters test mode
+4. After evaluation completes, the file is automatically removed
+
+This approach eliminates the need for environment variables during the build process and allows for targeted activation only when needed for evaluations. The extension remains dormant during normal use, only activating when an evals.env file is present. For more details, see [Evals Env Activation](./docs/evals-env-activation.md).
+
+### Installation
+
+1. Build the CLI tool:
+
+```bash
+cd evals/cli
+npm install
+npm run build
+```
+
+### Usage
+
+#### Setting Up Benchmarks
+
+```bash
+cd evals/cli
+node dist/index.js setup
+```
+
+This will clone and set up all benchmark repositories. You can specify specific benchmarks:
+
+```bash
+node dist/index.js setup --benchmarks exercism
+```
+
+#### Running Evaluations
+
+```bash
+node dist/index.js run --model claude-3-opus-20240229 --benchmark exercism
+```
+
+Options:
+- `--model`: The model to evaluate (default: claude-3-opus-20240229)
+- `--benchmark`: Specific benchmark to run (default: all)
+- `--count`: Number of tasks to run (default: all)
+
+#### Generating Reports
+
+```bash
+node dist/index.js report
+```
+
+Options:
+- `--format`: Report format (json, markdown) (default: markdown)
+- `--output`: Output path for the report
+
+#### Managing Test Mode Activation
+
+The CLI provides a command to manually manage the evals.env file for test mode activation:
+
+```bash
+node dist/index.js evals-env create  # Create evals.env file in current directory
+node dist/index.js evals-env remove  # Remove evals.env file from current directory
+node dist/index.js evals-env check   # Check if evals.env file exists in current directory
+```
+
+Options:
+- `--directory`: Specify a directory other than the current one
+
+## Benchmarks
+
+### Exercism
+
+Modified Exercism exercises from the [pashpashpash/evals](https://github.com/pashpashpash/evals) repository. These are small, focused programming exercises in various languages.
+
+### SWE-Bench (Coming Soon)
+
+Real-world software engineering tasks from the [SWE-bench](https://github.com/SWE-bench/SWE-bench) repository.
+
+### SWELancer (Coming Soon)
+
+Freelance-style programming tasks from the SWELancer benchmark.
+
+### Multi-SWE-Bench (Coming Soon)
+
+Multi-file software engineering tasks from the Multi-SWE-Bench repository.
+
+## Metrics
+
+The evaluation system collects the following metrics:
+
+- **Token Usage**: Input and output tokens
+- **Cost**: Estimated cost of API calls
+- **Duration**: Time taken to complete tasks
+- **Tool Usage**: Number of tool calls and failures
+- **Success Rate**: Percentage of tasks completed successfully
+- **Functional Correctness**: Percentage of tests passed
+
+## Reports
+
+Reports are generated in Markdown or JSON format and include:
+
+- Overall summary
+- Benchmark-specific results
+- Model-specific results
+- Tool usage statistics
+- Charts and visualizations
+
+## Development
+
+### Adding a New Benchmark
+
+1. Create a new adapter in `evals/cli/src/adapters/`
+2. Implement the `BenchmarkAdapter` interface
+3. Register the adapter in `evals/cli/src/adapters/index.ts`
+
+### Extending Metrics
+
+To add new metrics:
+
+1. Update the database schema in `evals/cli/src/db/schema.ts`
+2. Add collection logic in `evals/cli/src/utils/results.ts`
+3. Update report generation in `evals/cli/src/commands/report.ts`
