Simplify symbol formatting: omit () from all symbol names

Appending () is language-specific and can mislead for TypeScript,
Obj-C, etc. The kind suffix (— function, — class, etc.) already
communicates the symbol type clearly.

+name: create-pull-request
+description: Create a GitHub pull request following project conventions. Use when the user asks to create a PR, submit changes for review, or open a pull request. Handles commit analysis, branch management, PR template usage, and PR creation using the gh CLI tool.
+---
+
+# Create Pull Request
+
+This skill guides you through creating a well-structured GitHub pull request that follows project conventions and best practices.
+
+## Prerequisites Check
+
+Before proceeding, verify the following:
+
+### 1. Check if `gh` CLI is installed
+
+```bash
+gh --version
+```
+
+If not installed, inform the user:
+> The GitHub CLI (`gh`) is required but not installed. Please install it:
+> - macOS: `brew install gh`
+> - Other: https://cli.github.com/
+
+### 2. Check if authenticated with GitHub
+
+```bash
+gh auth status
+```
+
+If not authenticated, guide the user to run `gh auth login`.
+
+### 3. Verify clean working directory
+
+```bash
+git status
+```
+
+If there are uncommitted changes, ask the user whether to:
+- Commit them as part of this PR
+- Stash them temporarily
+- Discard them (with caution)
+
+## Gather Context
+
+### 1. Identify the current branch
+
+```bash
+git branch --show-current
+```
+
+Ensure you're not on `main` or `master`. If so, ask the user to create or switch to a feature branch.
+
+### 2. Find the base branch
+
+```bash
+git remote show origin | grep "HEAD branch"
+```
+
+This is typically `main` or `master`.
+
+### 3. Analyze recent commits relevant to this PR
+
+```bash
+git log origin/main..HEAD --oneline --no-decorate
+```
+
+Review these commits to understand:
+- What changes are being introduced
+- The scope of the PR (single feature/fix or multiple changes)
+- Whether commits should be squashed or reorganized
+
+### 4. Review the diff
+
+```bash
+git diff origin/main..HEAD --stat
+```
+
+This shows which files changed and helps identify the type of change.
+
+## Information Gathering
+
+Before creating the PR, you need the following information. Check if it can be inferred from:
+- Commit messages
+- Branch name (e.g., `fix/issue-123`, `feature/new-login`)
+- Changed files and their content
+
+If any critical information is missing, use `ask_followup_question` to ask the user:
+
+### Required Information
+
+1. **Related Issue Number**: Look for patterns like `#123`, `fixes #123`, or `closes #123` in commit messages
+2. **Description**: What problem does this solve? Why were these changes made?
+3. **Type of Change**: Bug fix, new feature, breaking change, refactor, cosmetic, documentation, or workflow
+4. **Test Procedure**: How was this tested? What could break?
+
+### Example clarifying question
+
+If the issue number is not found:
+> I couldn't find a related issue number in the commit messages or branch name. What GitHub issue does this PR address? (Enter the issue number, e.g., "123" or "N/A" for small fixes)
+
+## Git Best Practices
+
+Before creating the PR, consider these best practices:
+
+### Commit Hygiene
+
+1. **Atomic commits**: Each commit should represent a single logical change
+2. **Clear commit messages**: Follow conventional commit format when possible
+3. **No merge commits**: Prefer rebasing over merging to keep history clean
+
+### Branch Management
+
+1. **Rebase on latest main** (if needed):
+   ```bash
+   git fetch origin
+   git rebase origin/main
+   ```
+
+2. **Squash if appropriate**: If there are many small "WIP" commits, consider interactive rebase:
+   ```bash
+   git rebase -i origin/main
+   ```
+   Only suggest this if commits appear messy and the user is comfortable with rebasing.
+
+### Push Changes
+
+Ensure all commits are pushed:
+```bash
+git push origin HEAD
+```
+
+If the branch was rebased, you may need:
+```bash
+git push origin HEAD --force-with-lease
+```
+
+## Create the Pull Request
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Read and use the PR template at `.github/pull_request_template.md`. The PR body format must **strictly match** the template structure. Do not deviate from the template format.
+
+When filling out the template:
+- Replace `#XXXX` with the actual issue number, or keep as `#XXXX` if no issue exists (for small fixes)
+- Fill in all sections with relevant information gathered from commits and context
+- Mark the appropriate "Type of Change" checkbox(es)
+- Complete the "Pre-flight Checklist" items that apply
+
+### Create PR with gh CLI
+
+**Use a temporary file for the PR body** to avoid shell escaping issues, newline problems, and other command-line flakiness:
+
+1. Write the PR body to a temporary file:
+   ```
+   /tmp/pr-body.md
+   ```
+
+2. Create the PR using the file:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr create --title "PR_TITLE" --body-file /tmp/pr-body.md --base main
+   ```
+
+3. Clean up the temporary file:
+   ```bash
+   rm /tmp/pr-body.md
+   ```
+
+For draft PRs:
+```bash
+gh pr create --title "PR_TITLE" --body-file /tmp/pr-body.md --base main --draft
+```
+
+**Why use a file?** Passing complex markdown with newlines, special characters, and checkboxes directly via `--body` is error-prone. The `--body-file` flag handles all content reliably.
+
+## Post-Creation
+
+After creating the PR:
+
+1. **Display the PR URL** so the user can review it
+2. **Remind about CI checks**: Tests and linting will run automatically
+3. **Suggest next steps**:
+   - Add reviewers if needed: `gh pr edit --add-reviewer USERNAME`
+   - Add labels if needed: `gh pr edit --add-label "bug"`
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **No commits ahead of main**: The branch has no changes to submit
+   - Ask if the user meant to work on a different branch
+
+2. **Branch not pushed**: Remote doesn't have the branch
+   - Push the branch first: `git push -u origin HEAD`
+
+3. **PR already exists**: A PR for this branch already exists
+   - Show the existing PR: `gh pr view`
+   - Ask if they want to update it instead
+
+4. **Merge conflicts**: Branch conflicts with base
+   - Guide user through resolving conflicts or rebasing
+
+## Summary Checklist
+
+Before finalizing, ensure:
+- [ ] `gh` CLI is installed and authenticated
+- [ ] Working directory is clean
+- [ ] All commits are pushed
+- [ ] Branch is up-to-date with base branch
+- [ ] Related issue number is identified, or placeholder is used
+- [ ] PR description follows the template exactly
+- [ ] Appropriate type of change is selected
+- [ ] Pre-flight checklist items are addressed

+# CLI Development
+
+The CLI lives in `cli/` and uses React Ink for terminal UI.
+
+- If needed, look at `cli/src/constants/colors.ts` for re-used terminal colors, e.g. `COLORS.primaryBlue` highlight color (selections, spinners, success states).
+- Never use `dimColor` with gray (e.g. `<Text color="gray" dimColor>`) - it's too hard to read. Use `color="gray"` for secondary text and normal foreground (no color) for primary text.
+- When thinking about how to handle state or messages from core, look at webview for how it communicates with the vs code extension.
+- When updating the webview, consider and suggest to the user to update the CLI TUI since we want to provide a similar experience to our terminal users as we do our vs code extension users.
+
+## Adding New API Providers
+
+When adding a new API provider to the extension, you must also update the CLI:
+
+1. **Update `cli/src/components/ModelPicker.tsx`**: Add the provider to the `providerModels` map so `getDefaultModelId()` returns the correct default model. Import the models and default ID from `@shared/api`:
+   ```typescript
+   import { newProviderDefaultModelId, newProviderModels } from "@/shared/api"
+
+   export const providerModels = {
+     // ...existing providers
+     "new-provider": { models: newProviderModels, defaultId: newProviderDefaultModelId },
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Use `applyProviderConfig()` for auth flows**: When implementing OAuth or other auth flows for the provider, use the shared utility at `cli/src/utils/provider-config.ts`:
+   ```typescript
+   import { applyProviderConfig } from "../utils/provider-config"
+
+   // After successful auth:
+   await applyProviderConfig({ providerId: "new-provider", controller })
+   ```
+   This handles setting provider, default model, API key mapping, state persistence, and rebuilding the API handler.
+
+3. **Provider-specific auth**: If the provider uses OAuth (like `openai-codex`), add handling in `SettingsPanelContent.tsx`'s `handleProviderSelect` callback. See the existing Codex OAuth flow as a reference.

+This file is the secret sauce for working effectively in this codebase. It captures tribal knowledge—the nuanced, non-obvious patterns that make the difference between a quick fix and hours of back-and-forth & human intervention.
+
+**When to add to this file:**
+- User had to intervene, correct, or hand-hold
+- Multiple back-and-forth attempts were needed to get something working
+- You discovered something that required reading many files to understand
+- A change touched files you wouldn't have guessed
+- Something worked differently than you expected
+- User explicitly asks to "add this to CLAUDE.md"
+
+**Proactively suggest additions** when any of the above happen—don't wait to be asked.
+
+**What NOT to add:** Stuff you can figure out from reading a few files, obvious patterns, or standard practices. This file should be high-signal, not comprehensive.
+
+## Miscellaneous
+- This is a VS Code extension—check `package.json` for available scripts before trying to verify builds (e.g., `npm run compile`, not `npm run build`).
+- When creating PRs, contributors should not create changelog-entry files. Maintainers handle release versioning and changelog curation during the release process.
+- When adding new feature flags, see this PR as a reference https://github.com/cline/cline/pull/7566
+- Additional instructions about making requests: @.clinerules/network.md
+
+## gRPC/Protobuf Communication
+The extension and webview communicate via gRPC-like protocol over VS Code message passing.
+
+**Proto files live in `proto/`** (e.g., `proto/cline/task.proto`, `proto/cline/ui.proto`)
+- Each feature domain has its own `.proto` file
+- For simple data, use shared types in `proto/cline/common.proto` (`StringRequest`, `Empty`, `Int64Request`)
+- For complex data, define custom messages in the feature's `.proto` file
+- Naming: Services `PascalCaseService`, RPCs `camelCase`, Messages `PascalCase`
+- For streaming responses, use `stream` keyword (see `subscribeToAuthCallback` in `account.proto`)
+
+**Run `npm run protos`** after any proto changes—generates types in:
+- `src/shared/proto/` - Shared type definitions
+- `src/generated/grpc-js/` - Service implementations
+- `src/generated/nice-grpc/` - Promise-based clients
+- `src/generated/hosts/` - Generated handlers
+
+**Adding new enum values** (like a new `ClineSay` type) requires updating conversion mappings in `src/shared/proto-conversions/cline-message.ts`
+
+**Adding new RPC methods** requires:
+- Handler in `src/core/controller/<domain>/`
+- Call from webview via generated client: `UiServiceClient.scrollToSettings(StringRequest.create({ value: "browser" }))`
+
+**Example—the `explain-changes` feature touched:**
+- `proto/cline/task.proto` - Added `ExplainChangesRequest` message and `explainChanges` RPC
+- `proto/cline/ui.proto` - Added `GENERATE_EXPLANATION = 29` to `ClineSay` enum
+- `src/shared/ExtensionMessage.ts` - Added `ClineSayGenerateExplanation` type
+- `src/shared/proto-conversions/cline-message.ts` - Added mapping for new say type
+- `src/core/controller/task/explainChanges.ts` - Handler implementation
+- `webview-ui/src/components/chat/ChatRow.tsx` - UI rendering
+
+## Adding a New API Provider
+When adding a new provider (e.g., "openai-codex"), you must update the proto conversion layer in THREE places or the provider will silently reset to Anthropic:
+
+1. `proto/cline/models.proto` - Add to the `ApiProvider` enum (e.g., `OPENAI_CODEX = 40;`)
+2. `convertApiProviderToProto()` in `src/shared/proto-conversions/models/api-configuration-conversion.ts` - Add case mapping string to proto enum
+3. `convertProtoToApiProvider()` in the same file - Add case mapping proto enum back to string
+
+**Why this matters:** Without these, the provider string hits the `default` case and returns `ANTHROPIC`. The webview, provider list, and handler all work fine, but the state silently resets when it round-trips through proto serialization. No error is thrown.
+
+**Other files to update when adding a provider:**
+- `src/shared/api.ts` - Add to `ApiProvider` union type, define models
+- `src/shared/providers/providers.json` - Add to provider list for dropdown
+- `src/core/api/index.ts` - Register handler in `createHandlerForProvider()`
+- `webview-ui/src/components/settings/utils/providerUtils.ts` - Add cases in `getModelsForProvider()` and `normalizeApiConfiguration()`
+- `webview-ui/src/utils/validate.ts` - Add validation case
+- `webview-ui/src/components/settings/ApiOptions.tsx` - Render provider component
+
+## Responses API Providers (OpenAI Codex, OpenAI Native)
+Providers using OpenAI's Responses API require native tool calling. XML tools don't work with the Responses API.
+
+**Symptoms of broken native tool calling:**
+- Tools get called multiple times (e.g., `ask_followup_question` asks the same question twice)
+- Tool arguments get duplicated or malformed
+- The model responds but tools aren't recognized
+
+**Root causes to check:**
+1. **Provider missing from `isNextGenModelProvider()`** in `src/utils/model-utils.ts`. The native variant matchers (e.g., `native-gpt-5/config.ts`) call this function. If your provider isn't in the list, the matcher returns false and falls back to XML tools.
+
+2. **Model missing `apiFormat: ApiFormat.OPENAI_RESPONSES`** in its model info (`src/shared/api.ts`). This property signals that the model requires native tool calling. The task runner in `src/core/task/index.ts` checks this and forces `enableNativeToolCalls: true` regardless of user settings.
+
+**When adding a new Responses API provider:**
+1. Add provider to `isNextGenModelProvider()` list in `src/utils/model-utils.ts`
+2. Set `apiFormat: ApiFormat.OPENAI_RESPONSES` on all models that use the Responses API
+3. The variant matcher and task runner will handle the rest automatically
+
+## Adding Tools to System Prompt
+This is tricky—multiple prompt variants and configs. **Always search for existing similar tools first and follow their pattern.** Look at the full chain from prompt definition → variant configs → handler → UI before implementing.
+
+1. **Add to `ClineDefaultTool` enum** in `src/shared/tools.ts`
+2. **Tool definition** in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/tools/` (create file like `generate_explanation.ts`)
+   - Define variants for each `ModelFamily` (generic, next-gen, xs, etc.)
+   - Export variants array (e.g., `export const my_tool_variants = [GENERIC, NATIVE_NEXT_GEN, XS]`)
+   - **Fallback behavior**: If a variant isn't defined for a model family, `ClineToolSet.getToolByNameWithFallback()` automatically falls back to GENERIC. So you only need to export `[GENERIC]` unless the tool needs model-specific behavior.
+3. **Register in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/tools/init.ts`** - Import and spread into `allToolVariants`
+4. **Add to variant configs** - Each model family has its own config in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/variants/*/config.ts`. Add your tool's enum to the `.tools()` list:
+   - `generic/config.ts`, `next-gen/config.ts`, `gpt-5/config.ts`, `native-gpt-5/config.ts`, `native-gpt-5-1/config.ts`, `native-next-gen/config.ts`, `gemini-3/config.ts`, `glm/config.ts`, `hermes/config.ts`, `xs/config.ts`
+   - **Important**: If you add to a variant's config, make sure the tool spec exports a variant for that ModelFamily (or relies on GENERIC fallback)
+5. **Create handler** in `src/core/task/tools/handlers/`
+6. **Wire up in `ToolExecutor.ts`** if needed for execution flow
+7. **Add to tool parsing** in `src/core/assistant-message/index.ts` if needed
+8. **If tool has UI feedback**: add `ClineSay` enum in proto, update `src/shared/ExtensionMessage.ts`, update `src/shared/proto-conversions/cline-message.ts`, update `webview-ui/src/components/chat/ChatRow.tsx`
+
+## Modifying System Prompt
+**Read these first:** `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/README.md`, `tools/README.md`, `__tests__/README.md`
+
+System prompt is modular: **components** (reusable sections) + **variants** (model-specific configs) + **templates** (with `{{PLACEHOLDER}}` resolution).
+
+**Key directories:**
+- `components/` - Shared sections: `rules.ts`, `capabilities.ts`, `editing_files.ts`, etc.
+- `variants/` - Model-specific: `generic/`, `next-gen/`, `xs/`, `gpt-5/`, `gemini-3/`, `hermes/`, `glm/`, etc.
+- `templates/` - Template engine and placeholder definitions
+
+**Variant tiers (ask user which to modify):**
+- **Next-gen** (Claude 4, GPT-5, Gemini 2.5): `next-gen/`, `native-next-gen/`, `native-gpt-5/`, `native-gpt-5-1/`, `gemini-3/`, `gpt-5/`
+- **Standard** (default fallback): `generic/`
+- **Local/small models**: `xs/`, `hermes/`, `glm/`
+
+**How overrides work:** Variants can override components via `componentOverrides` in their `config.ts`, or provide a custom template in `template.ts` (e.g., `next-gen/template.ts` exports `rules_template`). If no override, the shared component from `components/` is used.
+
+**Example: Adding a rule to RULES section**
+1. Check if variant overrides rules: look for `rules_template` in `variants/*/template.ts` or `componentOverrides.RULES` in `config.ts`
+2. If shared: modify `components/rules.ts`
+3. If overridden: modify that variant's template
+4. XS variant is special—has heavily condensed inline content in `template.ts`
+
+**After any changes, regenerate snapshots:**
+```bash
+UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=true npm run test:unit
+```
+Snapshots live in `__tests__/__snapshots__/`. Tests validate across model families and context variations (browser, MCP, focus chain).
+
+## Modifying Default Slash Commands
+Three places need updates:
+- `src/core/slash-commands/index.ts` - Command definitions
+- `src/core/prompts/commands.ts` - System prompt integration
+- `webview-ui/src/utils/slash-commands.ts` - Webview autocomplete
+
+## Adding New Global State Keys
+Adding a new key to global state requires updates in multiple places. Missing any step causes silent failures.
+
+Required steps:
+1. Type definition in `src/shared/storage/state-keys.ts` - Add to `GlobalState` or `Settings` interface
+2. Read from globalState in `src/core/storage/utils/state-helpers.ts`:
+   - Add `const myKey = context.globalState.get<GlobalStateAndSettings["myKey"]>("myKey")` in `readGlobalStateFromDisk()`
+   - Add to the return object: `myKey: myKey ?? defaultValue,`
+3. StateManager handles read/write via `setGlobalState()`/`getGlobalStateKey()` after initialization
+
+Common mistake: Adding only the return value without the `context.globalState.get()` call. This compiles but the value is always `undefined` on load.
+
+Settings plumbing gotcha: if a key is user-toggleable from settings, wire both controller update paths:
+- `src/core/controller/state/updateSettings.ts` for webview `updateSetting(...)`
+- `src/core/controller/state/updateSettingsCli.ts` for CLI/ACP settings updates
+Missing one path causes a toggle to appear to change in one surface while the backend state stays unchanged.
+
+Webview toggle gotcha: settings changes must also round-trip back in state payloads.
+- Add the field to `UpdateSettingsRequest` in `proto/cline/state.proto` (for webview update requests), then run `npm run protos`
+- Include the key in `Controller.getStateToPostToWebview()` (`src/core/controller/index.ts`)
+- Ensure `ExtensionState` and webview defaults include the key (`src/shared/ExtensionMessage.ts`, `webview-ui/src/context/ExtensionStateContext.tsx`)
+If this round-trip wiring is missing, the backend value can update but the toggle in webview appears stuck or reverts.
+
+## StateManager Cache vs Direct globalState Access
+StateManager uses an in-memory cache populated during `StateManager.initialize(context)` in `common.ts`. For most state, use `controller.stateManager.setGlobalState()`/`getGlobalStateKey()`.
+
+Exception: State needed immediately at extension startup (before cache is ready)
+
+When Window A sets state and immediately opens Window B, the new window's StateManager cache is populated from `context.globalState` during initialization. If you need to read state in Window B right at startup (e.g., in `common.ts` during `initialize()`), read directly from `context.globalState.get()` instead of StateManager's cache.
+
+Example pattern (see `lastShownAnnouncementId` and `worktreeAutoOpenPath`):
+```typescript
+// Writing (normal pattern)
+controller.stateManager.setGlobalState("myKey", value)
+
+// Reading at startup in common.ts (bypass cache)
+const value = context.globalState.get<string>("myKey")
+```
+
+This is only needed for cross-window state read during the brief startup window before StateManager cache is fully usable. Normal state access after initialization should use StateManager.
+
+## ChatRow Cancelled/Interrupted States
+When a ChatRow displays a loading/in-progress state (spinner), you must handle what happens when the task is cancelled. This is non-obvious because cancellation doesn't update the message content—you have to infer it from context.
+
+**The pattern:**
+1. A message has a `status` field (e.g., `"generating"`, `"complete"`, `"error"`) stored in `message.text` as JSON
+2. When cancelled mid-operation, the status stays `"generating"` forever—no one updates it
+3. To detect cancellation, check TWO conditions:
+   - `!isLast` — if this message is no longer the last message, something else happened after it (interrupted)
+   - `lastModifiedMessage?.ask === "resume_task" || "resume_completed_task"` — task was just cancelled and is waiting to resume
+
+**Example from `generate_explanation`:**
+```tsx
+const wasCancelled =
+    explanationInfo.status === "generating" &&
+    (!isLast ||
+        lastModifiedMessage?.ask === "resume_task" ||
+        lastModifiedMessage?.ask === "resume_completed_task")
+const isGenerating = explanationInfo.status === "generating" && !wasCancelled
+```
+
+**Why both checks?**
+- `!isLast` catches: cancelled → resumed → did other stuff → this old message is stale
+- `lastModifiedMessage?.ask === "resume_task"` catches: just cancelled, hasn't resumed yet, this message is still technically "last"
+
+**See also:** `BrowserSessionRow.tsx` uses similar pattern with `isLastApiReqInterrupted` and `isLastMessageResume`.
+
+**Backend side:** When streaming is cancelled, clean up properly (close tabs, clear comments, etc.) by checking `taskState.abort` after the streaming function returns.

+# Cline Hooks Documentation
+
+## Overview
+
+Cline hooks allow you to execute custom scripts at specific points in the agentic workflow. Hooks can be placed in either:
+- **Global hooks directory**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/` (applies to all workspaces)
+- **Workspace hooks directory**: `.clinerules/hooks/` (applies to the workspace the repo is part of)
+
+Hooks run automatically when enabled.
+
+## Enabling Hooks
+
+1. Open Cline settings in VSCode
+2. Navigate to the Feature Settings section
+3. Check the "Enable Hooks" checkbox
+4. Hooks must be executable files (on Unix/Linux/macOS use `chmod +x hookname`)
+
+## Available Hooks
+
+### TaskStart Hook
+- **When**: Runs when a NEW task is started (not when resuming)
+- **Purpose**: Initialize task context, validate task requirements, set up environment
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/TaskStart`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/TaskStart`
+
+### TaskResume Hook
+- **When**: Runs when an EXISTING task is resumed (after user clicks resume button)
+- **Purpose**: Validate resumed task state, restore context, check for changes since last run
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/TaskResume`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/TaskResume`
+
+### TaskCancel Hook
+- **When**: Runs when a task is cancelled or a hook is aborted by the user (only if there's actual active work or work was started)
+- **Purpose**: Clean up resources, log cancellation, save state
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/TaskCancel`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/TaskCancel`
+- **Note**: This hook is NOT cancellable
+
+### TaskComplete Hook (coming soon!)
+- **When**: Runs when a task is marked as complete
+- **Purpose**: Log completion status, perform final cleanup, generate reports
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/TaskComplete`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/TaskComplete`
+
+### UserPromptSubmit Hook
+- **When**: Runs when the user submits a prompt/message (initial task, resume, or feedback)
+- **Purpose**: Validate user input, preprocess prompts, add context to user messages
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/UserPromptSubmit`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/UserPromptSubmit`
+
+### PreToolUse Hook
+- **When**: Runs BEFORE a tool is executed
+- **Purpose**: Validate parameters, block execution, or add context
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PreToolUse`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/PreToolUse`
+
+### PostToolUse Hook
+- **When**: Runs AFTER a tool completes
+- **Purpose**: Observe results, track patterns, or add context
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PostToolUse`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/PostToolUse`
+
+### PreCompact Hook (coming soon!)
+- **When**: Runs BEFORE the conversation context is compacted/truncated
+- **Purpose**: Observe compaction events, log context management, track token usage
+- **Global Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PreCompact`
+- **Workspace Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/PreCompact`
+
+## Cross-Platform Hook Format
+
+Cline uses a git-style approach for hooks that works consistently across all platforms:
+
+### Hook Files (All Platforms)
+- **No file extensions**: Hooks are named exactly `PreToolUse` or `PostToolUse` (no `.bat`, `.cmd`, `.sh` etc.)
+- **Shebang required**: First line must be a shebang (e.g., `#!/usr/bin/env bash` or `#!/usr/bin/env node`)
+- **Executable on Unix**: On Unix/Linux/macOS, hooks must be executable: `chmod +x PreToolUse`
+- **Windows**: Not currently supported.
+
+### How It Works
+
+Like git hooks, Cline executes hook files through a shell that interprets the shebang line:
+- On Unix/Linux/macOS: Native shell execution with shebang support
+
+This means:
+- ✅ Same hook script works on all platforms
+- ✅ Write once, run anywhere
+- ✅ Use any scripting language (bash, node, python, etc.)
+
+### Creating Hooks
+
+**On Unix/Linux/macOS:**
+```bash
+# Create hook file
+nano ~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PreToolUse
+
+# Make executable
+chmod +x ~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PreToolUse
+```
+
+## Context Injection Timing
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Context injected by hooks affects **FUTURE AI decisions**, not the current tool execution.
+
+### Why This Matters
+
+When a hook runs:
+1. The AI has already decided what tool to use and with what parameters
+2. The hook cannot modify those parameters
+3. Context from the hook is added to the conversation
+4. The AI sees this context in the **NEXT API request** and can adjust future decisions
+
+### PreToolUse Hook Flow
+```
+1. AI decides: "I'll use write_to_file with these parameters"
+2. PreToolUse hook runs → can block or add context
+3. If allowed, tool executes with original parameters
+4. Context is added to conversation
+5. Next API request includes this context
+6. AI adjusts future decisions based on context
+```
+
+### PostToolUse Hook Flow
+```
+1. Tool completes execution
+2. PostToolUse hook runs → observes results
+3. Hook adds context about the outcome
+4. Context is added to conversation
+5. Next API request includes this context
+6. AI can learn from the results
+```
+
+## Hook Input/Output
+
+### Input (via stdin as JSON)
+
+All hooks receive:
+```json
+{
+  "clineVersion": "string",
+  "hookName": "TaskStart" | "TaskResume" | "TaskCancel" | "TaskComplete" | "UserPromptSubmit" | "PreToolUse" | "PostToolUse" | "PreCompact",
+  "timestamp": "string",
+  "taskId": "string",
+  "workspaceRoots": ["string"],
+  "userId": "string",
+  "taskStart": {  // Only for TaskStart
+    "taskMetadata": {
+      "taskId": "string",
+      "ulid": "string",
+      "initialTask": "string"
+    }
+  },
+  "taskResume": {  // Only for TaskResume
+    "taskMetadata": {
+      "taskId": "string",
+      "ulid": "string"
+    },
+    "previousState": {
+      "lastMessageTs": "string",
+      "messageCount": "string",
+      "conversationHistoryDeleted": "string"
+    }
+  },
+  "taskCancel": {  // Only for TaskCancel
+    "taskMetadata": {
+      "taskId": "string",
+      "ulid": "string",
+      "completionStatus": "string"
+    }
+  },
+  "taskComplete": {  // Only for TaskComplete
+    "taskMetadata": {
+      "taskId": "string",
+      "ulid": "string"
+    }
+  },
+  "userPromptSubmit": {  // Only for UserPromptSubmit
+    "prompt": "string",
+    "attachments": ["string"]
+  },
+  "preToolUse": {  // Only for PreToolUse
+    "toolName": "string",
+    "parameters": {}
+  },
+  "postToolUse": {  // Only for PostToolUse
+    "toolName": "string",
+    "parameters": {},
+    "result": "string",
+    "success": boolean,
+    "executionTimeMs": number
+  },
+  "preCompact": {  // Only for PreCompact
+    "contextSize": number,
+    "messagesToCompact": number,
+    "compactionStrategy": "string"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Output (via stdout as JSON)
+
+All hooks must return:
+```json
+{
+  "cancel": boolean,                   // Required: false to continue, true to block execution
+  "contextModification": "string",     // Optional: Context for future AI decisions
+  "errorMessage": "string"             // Optional: Error details if blocking
+}
+```
+
+**Note**: The `cancel` field works as follows:
+- `false` (or omitted): Allow execution to continue
+- `true`: Block execution and show error message to user
+
+## Hook Execution Limits
+
+- **Timeout**: Hooks must complete within 30 seconds (configurable via `HOOK_EXECUTION_TIMEOUT_MS`)
+- **Context Size**: Context modifications are limited to 50KB (configurable via `MAX_CONTEXT_MODIFICATION_SIZE`)
+- **Error Handling**: Expected errors (file not found, permission denied, not a directory) are handled silently; unexpected file system errors are propagated
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+### 1. Validation - Block Invalid Operations
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+input=$(cat)
+tool_name=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.preToolUse.toolName')
+path=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.preToolUse.parameters.path // ""')
+
+if [[ "$tool_name" == "write_to_file" && "$path" == *.js ]]; then
+  cat <<EOF
+{
+  "cancel": true,
+  "errorMessage": "Cannot create .js files in TypeScript project",
+  "contextModification": "Use .ts/.tsx extensions only"
+}
+EOF
+  exit 0
+fi
+
+echo '{"cancel": false}'
+```
+
+### 2. Context Building - Learn from Operations
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+input=$(cat)
+tool_name=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.postToolUse.toolName')
+success=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.postToolUse.success')
+path=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.postToolUse.parameters.path // ""')
+
+if [[ "$tool_name" == "write_to_file" && "$success" == "true" ]]; then
+  cat <<EOF
+{
+  "cancel": false,
+  "contextModification": "Created '$path'. Maintain consistency with this file's patterns in future operations."
+}
+EOF
+else
+  echo '{"cancel": false}'
+fi
+```
+
+### 3. Performance Monitoring
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+input=$(cat)
+execution_time=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.postToolUse.executionTimeMs')
+tool_name=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.postToolUse.toolName')
+
+if [[ "$execution_time" -gt 5000 ]]; then
+  cat <<EOF
+{
+  "cancel": false,
+  "contextModification": "Tool '$tool_name' took ${execution_time}ms. Consider optimizing future similar operations."
+}
+EOF
+else
+  echo '{"cancel": false}'
+fi
+```
+
+### 4. Logging and Telemetry
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+input=$(cat)
+
+# Log to file
+echo "$input" >> ~/.cline/hook-logs/tool-usage.jsonl
+
+# Allow execution
+echo '{"cancel": false}'
+```
+
+## Global vs Workspace Hooks
+
+Cline supports two levels of hooks:
+
+### Global Hooks
+- **Location**: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/` (macOS/Linux)
+- **Scope**: Apply to ALL workspaces and projects
+- **Use Case**: Organization-wide policies, personal preferences, universal validations
+- **Priority**: Order not guaranteed when combined with workspace hooks
+
+### Workspace Hooks
+- **Location**: `.clinerules/hooks/` in each workspace root
+- **Scope**: Apply only to the specific workspace
+- **Use Case**: Project-specific rules, team conventions, repository requirements
+- **Priority**: Order not guaranteed when combined with global hooks
+
+### Hook Execution
+
+When multiple hooks exist (global and/or workspace):
+- All hooks for a given step are executed **concurrently** using `Promise.all`
+- **Execution order is not guaranteed** - hooks run in parallel
+- If ALL hooks allow execution (`cancel: false`), the tool proceeds
+- If ANY hook blocks (`cancel: true`), execution is blocked
+
+**Result Combination:**
+- `cancel`: If ANY hook returns `true`, execution is blocked
+- `contextModification`: All context strings are concatenated with double newlines (`\n\n`)
+- `errorMessage`: All error messages are concatenated with single newlines (`\n`)
+
+### Setting Up Global Hooks
+
+1. The global hooks directory is automatically created at:
+   - macOS/Linux: `~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/`
+
+2. Add your hook script:
+   ```bash
+   # Unix/Linux/macOS
+   nano ~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PreToolUse
+   chmod +x ~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PreToolUse
+   ```
+
+3. Enable hooks in Cline settings
+
+### Example: Global + Workspace Hooks
+
+**Global Hook** (applies to all projects):
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+# ~/Documents/Cline/Hooks/PreToolUse
+# Universal rule: Never delete package.json
+input=$(cat)
+tool_name=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.preToolUse.toolName')
+path=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.preToolUse.parameters.path // ""')
+
+if [[ "$tool_name" == "write_to_file" && "$path" == *"package.json"* ]]; then
+  echo '{"cancel": true, "errorMessage": "Global policy: Cannot modify package.json"}'
+  exit 0
+fi
+
+echo '{"cancel": false}'
+```
+
+**Workspace Hook** (applies to specific project):
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+# .clinerules/hooks/PreToolUse
+# Project rule: Only TypeScript files
+input=$(cat)
+tool_name=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.preToolUse.toolName')
+path=$(echo "$input" | jq -r '.preToolUse.parameters.path // ""')
+
+if [[ "$tool_name" == "write_to_file" && "$path" == *.js ]]; then
+  echo '{"cancel": true, "errorMessage": "Project rule: Use .ts files only"}'
+  exit 0
+fi
+
+echo '{"cancel": false}'
+```
+
+**All hooks must allow execution for the tool to proceed.** Hooks may execute concurrently.
+
+## Multi-Root Workspaces
+
+If you have multiple workspace roots, you can place hooks in each root's `.clinerules/hooks/` directory. All hooks (global and workspace) may execute concurrently. Their results will be combined:
+
+- **cancel**: If ANY hook returns `true`, execution is blocked
+- **contextModification**: All context modifications are concatenated
+- **errorMessage**: All error messages are concatenated
+
+**Note:** No execution order is guaranteed between hooks from different directories.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Hook Not Running
+- Ensure the "Enable Hooks" setting is checked
+- Verify the hook file is executable (`chmod +x hookname`)
+- Check the hook file has no syntax errors
+- Look for errors in VSCode's Output panel (Cline channel)
+
+### Hook Timing Out
+- Reduce complexity of the hook script
+- Avoid expensive operations (network calls, heavy computations)
+- Consider moving complex logic to a background process
+
+### Context Not Affecting Behavior
+- Remember: context affects FUTURE decisions, not the current tool
+- Ensure context modifications are clear and actionable
+- Check that context isn't being truncated (50KB limit)
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- Hooks run with the same permissions as VSCode
+- Be cautious with hooks from untrusted sources
+- Review hook scripts before enabling them
+- Consider using `.gitignore` to avoid committing sensitive hook logic
+- Hooks can access all workspace files and environment variables
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Keep hooks fast** - Aim for <100ms execution time
+2. **Make context actionable** - Be specific about what the AI should do
+3. **Use structured prefixes** - Help the AI categorize context
+4. **Handle errors gracefully** - Always return valid JSON
+5. **Log for debugging** - Keep logs of hook executions for troubleshooting
+6. **Test incrementally** - Start with simple hooks and add complexity
+7. **Document your hooks** - Add comments explaining the purpose and logic

+# Networking & Proxy Support
+
+To ensure Cline works correctly in all environments (VSCode, JetBrains, CLI) and with various network configurations (especially corporate proxies), strictly follow these guidelines for all network activity.
+
+In extension code, do NOT use the global `fetch` or a default `axios` instance. (Note, `shared/net.ts` is exempt from these rules because it sets up the fetch wrappers.) In Webview code, you SHOULD use global `fetch`.
+
+Global `fetch` and default `axios` do not automatically pick up proxy configurations in all environments (specifically JetBrains and CLI). You MUST use the provided utilities in `@/shared/net` which handle proxy agent configuration. In the webview, the browser/embedder handles proxies.
+
+## Guidelines
+
+### 1. Using `fetch`
+
+Instead of `fetch(...)`, import the proxy-aware wrapper:
+
+```typescript
+import { fetch } from '@/shared/net'
+
+// Usage is identical to global fetch
+const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data')
+```
+
+### 2. Using `axios`
+
+When using `axios`, you must apply the settings from `getAxiosSettings()`:
+
+```typescript
+import axios from 'axios'
+import { getAxiosSettings } from '@/shared/net'
+
+const response = await axios.get('https://api.example.com/data', {
+  headers: { 'Authorization': '...' },
+  ...getAxiosSettings() // <--- CRITICAL: Injects the proxy agent if needed
+})
+```
+
+### 3. Third-Party Clients (OpenAI, Ollama, etc.)
+
+Most API client libraries allow you to customize the `fetch` implementation. You **MUST** pass the proxy-aware `fetch` to these clients.
+
+**Example (OpenAI):**
+```typescript
+import OpenAI from "openai"
+import { fetch } from "@/shared/net"
+
+this.client = new OpenAI({
+  apiKey: '...',
+  fetch, // <--- CRITICAL: Pass our fetch wrapper
+})
+```
+
+### 4. Tests
+
+Use `mockFetchForTesting` to mock the underlying fetch implementation.
+
+**Example (callback):**
+
+```
+import { mockFetchForTesting } from "@/shared/net"
+
+...
+  let mockFetch = ...
+  mockFetchForTesting(mockFetch, () => {
+    // This calls mockFetch
+    fetch('https://foo.example').then(...)
+  })
+  // Original fetch is restored immediately when the call returns.
+```
+
+**Example (Promise):**
+
+```
+import { mockFetchForTesting } from "@/shared/net"
+
+...
+  let mockFetch = ...
+  await mockFetchForTesting(mockFetch, async () => {
+    await ...
+    // This calls mockFetch
+    await fetch('https://foo.example')
+    ...
+  })
+  // Original fetch is restored when the Promise from the callback settles
+```
+
+## Verification
+
+If you are adding a new network call or integration:
+1.  Check `@/shared/net.ts` is imported.
+2.  Ensure `fetch` or `getAxiosSettings` is being used.
+3.  Verify that third-party clients are configured to use the custom fetch.

+# Storage Architecture
+
+Global settings, secrets and workspace state are stored in **file-backed JSON stores** under `~/.cline/data/`. This is the shared storage layer used by VSCode, CLI, and JetBrains.
+
+## Key Abstractions
+
+### `StorageContext` (src/shared/storage/storage-context.ts)
+The entry point. Created via `createStorageContext()` and passed to `StateManager.initialize()`. Contains three `ClineFileStorage` instances:
+- `globalState` → `~/.cline/data/globalState.json`
+- `secrets` → `~/.cline/data/secrets.json` (mode 0o600)
+- `workspaceState` → `~/.cline/data/workspaces/<hash>/workspaceState.json`
+
+### `ClineFileStorage` (src/shared/storage/ClineFileStorage.ts)
+Synchronous JSON key-value store backed by a single file. Supports `get()`, `set()`, `setBatch()`, `delete()`. Writes are atomic (write-then-rename).
+
+### `StateManager` (src/core/storage/StateManager.ts)
+In-memory cache on top of `StorageContext`. All runtime reads hit the cache; writes update cache immediately and debounce-flush to disk.
+
+## ⚠️ Do NOT Use VSCode's ExtensionContext for Storage
+
+**Do not** read from or write to `context.globalState`, `context.workspaceState`, or `context.secrets` for persistent data. These are VSCode-specific and not available on CLI or JetBrains.
+
+Instead, use:
+```typescript
+// Reading state
+StateManager.get().getGlobalStateKey("myKey")
+StateManager.get().getSecretKey("mySecretKey")
+StateManager.get().getWorkspaceStateKey("myWsKey")
+
+// Writing state
+StateManager.get().setGlobalState("myKey", value)
+StateManager.get().setSecret("mySecretKey", value)
+StateManager.get().setWorkspaceState("myWsKey", value)
+```
+
+Remember that your data may be read by a different client than the one that wrote it. For example, a value written by Cline in JetBrains may be read by Cline CLI.
+
+## VSCode Migration (src/hosts/vscode/vscode-to-file-migration.ts)
+
+On VSCode startup, a migration copies data from VSCode's `ExtensionContext` storage into the file-backed stores. This runs in `src/common.ts` before `StateManager.initialize()`.
+
+- **Sentinel**: `__vscodeMigrationVersion` key in global state and workspace state — prevents re-migration.
+- **Merge strategy**: File store wins. Existing values are never overwritten.
+- **Safe downgrade**: VSCode storage is NOT cleared, so older extension versions still work.
+
+## Adding New Storage Keys
+
+1. Add to `src/shared/storage/state-keys.ts` (see existing patterns)
+2. Read/write via `StateManager` (NOT via `context.globalState`)
+3. If adding a secret, add to `SecretKeys` array in `state-keys.ts`
+
+## File Layout
+
+```
+~/.cline/
+  data/
+    globalState.json          # Global settings & state
+    secrets.json              # API keys (mode 0o600)
+    tasks/
+      taskHistory.json        # Task history (separate file)
+    workspaces/
+      <hash>/
+        workspaceState.json   # Per-workspace toggles
+```

-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
-    ```

+# Find Best Reviewers for Current Branch
+
+Analyze my current branch to find the best people to review my PR based on **domain expertise** and git history.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Get the current branch name and verify it's not `main`
+2. Get the diff between the current branch and `origin/main`:
+   - Use `git diff origin/main...HEAD --name-only` to get changed files
+   - Use `git diff origin/main...HEAD` to understand the nature/spirit of the changes
+3. **Identify the domain/feature area** being changed:
+   - Read the diff carefully to understand WHAT is being changed conceptually (e.g., "slash commands", "authentication", "API client", "UI components")
+   - This semantic understanding is crucial for finding the right reviewers
+4. Find domain experts by searching for related files and their contributors:
+   - Identify all files related to the feature/domain (not just the ones changed)
+   - Example: if changing slash commands, find ALL slash-command related files across the codebase
+   - Use `git log --format="%an <%ae>" -- <related-files-pattern>` to find who has expertise in that domain
+5. For additional context, also gather:
+   - `git blame -L <start>,<end> origin/main -- <file-path>` for exact lines changed
+   - Recent commit activity on related files
+6. Score and rank contributors by:
+   - **Highest weight: Domain expertise** - who has the most commits to files in this feature area (even files not touched by this PR)
+   - **Medium weight: Direct file expertise** - commits to the specific files being changed
+   - **Lower weight: Line-level ownership** - authored the exact lines being modified
+7. Exclude myself (check against my git config user.email)
+8. Present the top 5 reviewers as an ordered list
+
+## Output Format
+
+Output an ordered list:
+
+1. **Name** - Domain expert: 15 commits to slash-command related files, authored core parsing logic
+2. **Name** - 8 commits to affected files, recently added the feature being modified
+3. ...
+
+## Commands Reference
+```bash
+git config user.email
+git diff origin/main...HEAD --name-only
+git diff origin/main...HEAD
+# Find related files for a domain (adjust pattern based on what you learn from the diff)
+find . -type f \( -name "*slash-command*" -o -name "*SlashCommand*" \) | head -20
+# Get contributors for related files
+find . -type f \( -name "*slash-command*" -o -name "*SlashCommand*" \) -print0 | xargs -0 git log --format="%an <%ae>" -- | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
+git log --format="%an <%ae>" -- <file> | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
+git blame -L 10,20 origin/main -- <file>
+```
+
+Do NOT ask questions - analyze the changes, identify the domain, and output the reviewer list.

+# Git Diff Analysis Workflow
+
+## Objective
+Analyze the current branch's changes against main to provide informed insights and context for development decisions.
+
+## Step 1: Gather Git Information
+<important>Do not return any text or conversation other than what is necessary to run these commands</important>
+
+**Run the following command to get the latest changes (bash):**
+```bash
+B=$(for c in main master origin/main origin/master; do git rev-parse --verify -q "$c" >/dev/null && echo "$c" && break; done); B=${B:-HEAD}; r(){ git branch --show-current; printf "=== STATUS ===\n"; git status --porcelain | cat; printf "=== COMMIT MESSAGES ===\n"; git log "$B"..HEAD --oneline | cat; printf "=== CHANGED FILES ===\n"; git diff "$B" --name-only | cat; printf "=== FULL DIFF ===\n"; git diff "$B" | cat; }; L=$(r | wc -l); if [ "$L" -gt 500 ]; then r > cline-git-analysis.temp && echo "::OUTPUT_FILE=cline-git-analysis.temp"; else r; fi
+```
+
+```powershell
+$B=$null;foreach($c in 'main','master','origin/main','origin/master'){git rev-parse --verify -q $c *> $null;if($LASTEXITCODE -eq 0){$B=$c;break}};if(-not $B){$B='HEAD'};function r([string]$b){git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD; '=== STATUS ==='; git status --porcelain | cat; '=== COMMIT MESSAGES ==='; git log "$b"..HEAD --oneline | cat; '=== CHANGED FILES ==='; git diff "$b" --name-only | cat; '=== FULL DIFF ==='; git diff "$b" | cat};$out=r $B|Out-String;$lines=($out -split "`r?`n").Count;if($lines -gt 500){$out|Set-Content -NoNewline cline-git-analysis.temp; '::OUTPUT_FILE=cline-git-analysis.temp'}else{$out}
+```
+
+## Step 2: Silent, Structured Analysis Phase
+- Analyze all git output without providing commentary or narration
+- Read the full diff to understand the scope and nature of changes
+- Identify patterns, architectural modifications, or potential impacts
+- Use `read_file` to examine any related files providing additional context on the changes you have observed
+
+## Step 3: Context Gathering
+- Analyze related code without providing commentary or narration
+- Read relevant related source files if needed for complete understanding
+- Check dependencies, imports, or cross-references spanning the changes
+- Understand the broader codebase context around modifications
+- This additional context gathering should include related backend code, as well as related ui/frontend code
+- You will typically need to analyze at least several files, potentially many, in order to fully complete this step
+- You should not continue reading additional context if you have exhausted more than 60% of your available context window
+- If you have exhausted less than 40% of your context window, you should continue reviewing additional context
+
+## Step 4: Ready for User Interaction
+**Only after completing the full analysis:**
+- Engage with the user based on comprehensive understanding
+- Provide insights about specific modifications and their impacts
+- If you are certain they exist, note potential breaking changes or compatibility issues
+- Answer questions with informed context from the complete change set and context gathering
+- If the user has not provided a question, or the question is insufficient to provide a quality response, ask brief (one sentence) clarifying questions.
+- Only offer recommendations if they are applicable to the user's request and relevant to the changes that you have observed 
+
+## Key Rules
+- **No prose or conversation during git research phase**
+- **No prose or conversation during context gathering phase**
+- **Complete all analysis before any user interaction**
+- **Use gathered information for all subsequent questions and insights**
+- **Focus on understanding the complete picture before discussing**
+
+## Optional: Additional Analysis Commands
+For deeper investigation when needed:
+
+```shell
+# Detailed commit history with author info
+git log main..HEAD --format="%h %s (%an)" | cat
+
+# Change statistics
+git diff main --stat | cat
+
+# Specific file type changes
+git diff main --name-only | grep -E '\.(ts|js|tsx|jsx|py|md)$' | cat

+# Hotfix Release
+
+Create a hotfix release by cherry-picking specific commits from main onto the latest release tag.
+
+## Overview
+
+This workflow helps you:
+1. Select specific commits from main to include in a hotfix
+2. Create a release notes commit on main (changelog + version bump)
+3. Cherry-pick everything onto the latest release tag
+4. Tag and push the new release
+
+## Step 1: Setup and Gather Information
+
+First, ensure we're on main and up to date:
+
+```bash
+git checkout main && git pull origin main
+```
+
+Get the latest release tag:
+
+```bash
+git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -1
+```
+
+## Step 2: Present Commits Since Last Release
+
+Show all commits on main since the last release tag:
+
+```bash
+LAST_TAG=$(git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -1)
+git log ${LAST_TAG}..HEAD --oneline --format="%h %s (%an)"
+```
+
+Also get the commit messages already on the tag (to identify previously cherry-picked commits). Note: Run these as separate commands to avoid shell parsing issues with parentheses in author names:
+
+```bash
+LAST_TAG=$(git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -1)
+PREV_TAG=$(git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -2 | tail -1)
+```
+
+```bash
+git log $PREV_TAG..$LAST_TAG --oneline --format="%s"
+```
+
+**Present the list** to the user in a numbered format with commit hash, subject, and author. For any commits whose subject line already appears in the tag's history (previously cherry-picked in an earlier hotfix) or are "Release Notes" commits, add `(already in previous hotfix)` or `(release notes - skip)` after them so the user knows to skip those.
+
+Ask which commits to include in the hotfix.
+
+Use the ask_followup_question tool to let the user specify which commits they want (by number or hash).
+
+## Step 3: Analyze Selected Commits
+
+For each selected commit:
+1. Get the full commit message: `git show --no-patch --format="%B" <hash>`
+2. Get the diff to understand the change: `git show <hash> --stat`
+3. Find the associated PR if any: `gh pr list --search "<hash>" --state merged --json number,title --jq '.[0]'`
+
+Build a mental model of what these changes do for the changelog.
+
+## Step 4: Determine New Version Number
+
+Parse the current version from package.json and the last tag:
+
+```bash
+LAST_TAG=$(git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -1)
+echo "Last release: $LAST_TAG"
+cat package.json | grep '"version"'
+```
+
+Hotfixes always increment the patch version (e.g., 3.40.0 -> 3.40.1, or 3.40.1 -> 3.40.2).
+
+**Ask the user to confirm the new version number.**
+
+## Step 5: Create Release Notes Commit on Main
+
+On the main branch, create a commit that updates:
+
+1. **CHANGELOG.md** - Add a new section for the hotfix version at the top:
+   ```markdown
+   ## [3.40.1]
+
+   - Description of fix 1
+   - Description of fix 2
+   ```
+
+   Write clear, user-friendly descriptions based on your analysis of the commits.
+
+2. **package.json** - Update the version field to the new version
+
+3. No changelog-entry file cleanup is needed. Contributors do not create changelog-entry files in this repo.
+
+**Skip running `npm run install:all`** - release automation handles lockfile consistency as needed.
+
+Commit with message format: `v{VERSION} Release Notes (hotfix)`
+
+In the commit body, mention:
+- This is for a hotfix release
+- List the cherry-picked commits that will be included
+
+```bash
+git add CHANGELOG.md package.json
+git commit -m "v3.40.1 Release Notes (hotfix)
+
+Hotfix release including:
+- <commit1-hash>: <description>
+- <commit2-hash>: <description>
+"
+```
+
+Push to main:
+
+```bash
+git push origin main
+```
+
+## Step 6: Build the Hotfix on the Tag
+
+Checkout the last release tag (detached HEAD):
+
+```bash
+LAST_TAG=$(git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -1)
+git checkout $LAST_TAG
+```
+
+Cherry-pick the selected commits in order:
+
+```bash
+git cherry-pick <commit1-hash>
+git cherry-pick <commit2-hash>
+# ... etc
+```
+
+Finally, cherry-pick the release notes commit you just pushed to main:
+
+```bash
+# Get the hash of the release notes commit (should be HEAD of main)
+RELEASE_NOTES_COMMIT=$(git rev-parse main)
+git cherry-pick $RELEASE_NOTES_COMMIT
+```
+
+## Step 7: Tag and Push
+
+After all cherry-picks are applied successfully:
+
+```bash
+# Tag the new release
+git tag v{VERSION}
+
+# Push the tag to remote
+git push origin v{VERSION}
+```
+
+## Step 8: Return to Main and Summary
+
+Return to main branch:
+
+```bash
+git checkout main
+```
+
+**Copy a Slack announcement message to clipboard** with the version and PR links for each included fix:
+
+```
+VS Code Hotfix v{VERSION} Published
+
+- Description of fix 1 https://github.com/cline/cline/pull/{PR_NUMBER}
+- Description of fix 2 https://github.com/cline/cline/pull/{PR_NUMBER}
+```
+
+Present a final summary:
+- New version: v{VERSION}
+- Tag pushed: yes
+- Commits included: (list them)
+- Slack message copied to clipboard: yes
+
+Remind the user to:
+1. Manually trigger the publish release GitHub Action at: https://github.com/cline/cline/actions/workflows/publish.yml (paste `v{VERSION}` as the tag)
+2. Post the Slack message to announce the hotfix
+
+## Important Notes
+
+- This workflow does NOT create a release branch - only tags
+- The release notes commit goes to main first, then gets cherry-picked to the tag
+- This keeps main's history accurate while allowing hotfix releases from tags
+- If cherry-pick conflicts occur, resolve them before continuing

+# General writing guide
+
+# How I want you to write 
+
+I'm gonna write something technical.
+
+It's often less about the nitty-gritty details of the tech stuff and more about learning something new or getting a solution handed to me on a silver platter.
+
+Look, when I read, I want something out of it. So when I write, I gotta remember that my readers want something too. This whole piece? It's about cluing in anyone who writes for me, or wants me to write for them, on how I see this whole writing product thing.
+
+I'm gonna lay out a checklist of stuff I'd like to have. It'll make the whole writing gig a bit smoother, you know?
+
+## Crafting Compelling Titles
+
+I often come across titles like "How to do X with Y,Z technology." These don't excite me because X or Y are usually unfamiliar unless they're already well-known. Its rarely the dream to use X unless X is the dream. 
+
+My dream isn’t to use instructor, its to do something valueble with the data it extracts
+
+An effective title should:
+
+- Evoke an emotional response
+- Highlight someone's goal
+- Offer a dream or aspiration
+- Challenge or comment on a belief
+- Address someone's problems
+
+I believe it's more impactful to write about specific problems. If this approach works, you can replicate it across various scenarios rather than staying too general.
+
+- Time management for everyone can be a 15$ ebook
+- Time management for executives is a 2000$ workshop
+
+Aim for titles that answer questions you think everyone is asking, or address thoughts people have but can't quite articulate.
+
+Instead of "How I do something" or "How to do something," frame it from the reader's perspective with "How you can do something." This makes the title more engaging. Just make sure the difference is advisory if the content is subjective. “How I made a million dollars” might be more reasonable than “How to make a million dollars” since you are the subject and the goal might be to share your story in hopes of helping others.
+
+This approach ultimately trains the reader to have a stronger emotional connection to your content.
+
+- "How I do X"
+- "How You Can do X"
+
+Between these two titles, it's obvious which one resonates more emotionally.
+
+You can take it further by adding specific conditions. For instance, you could target a particular audience or set a timeframe:
+
+- How to set up Braintrust
+- How to set up Braintrust in 5 minutes
+
+## NO adjectiives
+
+I want you to almost always avoid adjectives and try to use evidence instead. Instead of saying "production ready," you can write something like "scaling this to 100 servers or 1 million documents per second." Numbers like that will tell you exactly what the specificity of your product is. If you have to use adjectives rather than evidence, you are probably making something up. 
+
+There's no reason to say something like "blazingly fast" unless those things are already known phrases.
+
+Instead, say "200 times faster" or "30% faster." A 30% improvement in recommendation system speed is insane.
+
+There's a 200 times performance improvement because we went from one programming language to another. It's just something that's a little bit more expected and understandable.
+
+Another test that I really like using recently is tracking whether or not the statements you make can be:
+
+- Visualized
+- Proven false
+- Said only by you
+
+If you can nail all three, the claim you make will be more likely to resonate with an audience because only you can say it.
+
+Earlier this year, I had an example where I embedded all of Wikipedia in 17 minutes with 20 bucks, and it got half a million views. All we posted was a video of me kicking off the job, and then you can see all the log lines go through. You see the number of containers go from 1 out of 50 to 50 out of 50.
+
+It was easy to visualize and could have been proven false by being unreproducible. Lastly, Modal is the only company that could do that in such an effortless way, which made it unique.
+
+## Keep It Digestible 
+    - Aim for 5-minute reads
+    - Write at a Grade 10 reading level
+    - Break up long paragraphs
+    - Use headers and bullet points
+
+## Make It Scannable
+    - Bold key points
+    - Use subheadings every 3-4 paragraphs
+    - Include plenty of white space
+    - Add relevant examples
+
+This structure works whether you're writing a tweet thread or a full blog post. The key is making complex ideas accessible.
+
+# Guide to Writing Cline Documentation
+
+## Some general principles for explaining features
+
+If you're talking about a feature, it's helpful to start with a human-readable explanations that cover what the feature is in simple terms. Skip jargon and explain it like you're talking to someone who's never seen it before. This sets the foundation for everything that follows.
+
+Combine location and usage into one flowing section. Tell users exactly where to find the feature and how to use it, but weave the instructions into natural prose with a good balance of bullet points, numbered lists, code examples (if applicable), mintlify components, and headers/subheaders. Users shouldn't have to jump between separate "where is it" and "how do I use it" sections.
+
+Show the feature in action with real examples like actual files, workflows, or code. Users need to see concrete implementations, not just abstract descriptions. This is where understanding turns into practical knowledge.
+
+When talking about a feature, include an inspiration section that sparks imagination. This section pushes people from understanding to action by showing them what becomes possible when they use this feature creatively. It's what separates good documentation from great documentation.
+
+## Writing Principles That Actually Work
+
+### Write for Action, Not Just Understanding
+
+Documentation should motivate users to try things. Instead of just explaining how something works, focus on what users can accomplish with it. The inspiration section is crucial - it's what transforms passive readers into active users.
+
+### Create a Natural Story Flow
+
+It should feel like a conversation that naturally progresses from "what is this?" to "how do I use it?" to "here's a real example" to "imagine what you could do with this." 
+
+### Show Real Examples, Not Toy Demos
+
+Provide actual workflow files, real code snippets, and concrete implementations that users can copy and adapt. Abstract examples don't help anyone - users want to see exactly what they'll be working with.
+
+### Keep It Scannable But Not Fragmented
+
+Write in prose that flows naturally when read completely, but structure it so users can quickly find specific information when they're troubleshooting. Avoid dense walls of text, but also avoid over-formatting with excessive bullet points and bold headers. There should be a nice visual heirarchy of balance between all elements, so you can quickly scan the page and find what you're looking for.
+
+## Language and Tone Guidelines
+
+Write clearly without dumbing things down. Use simple language when possible, but don't avoid technical terms that users need to know. Explain concepts in terms of what users can achieve rather than how the software works internally.
+
+Make your writing conversational and encouraging. Phrases like "you can also try" or "when that works" feel more natural than rigid instructional language. Help users feel confident about trying new things.
+
+Keep content concise and purposeful. Every sentence should either help users understand something or help them do something. If it doesn't serve one of those purposes, cut it.
+
+Build in context and reasoning. Users want to understand why they're doing something, not just what to do. This builds confidence and helps them troubleshoot when things don't work exactly as expected.
+
+## Practical Implementation
+
+Structure each feature page consistently with the four-section approach, but let the content flow naturally within that structure. Use visual assets like videos and screenshots to complement the written content - they often communicate more effectively than paragraphs of description.
+
+Link generously to related resources, examples, and deeper documentation. Users should never feel stuck or wonder where to go next. Maintain a repository of real examples that users can reference and adapt to their own needs.
+
+The goal is documentation that feels more like helpful guidance from an experienced colleague than a technical manual. Users should finish reading feeling excited about what they can accomplish, not just informed about what the feature does.
+
+## Balance Structure with Flexibility
+
+While they discuss having consistent documentation structure, there's also mention of making content feel less rigid and more natural. The writing should follow guidelines while still feeling conversational and engaging. 
+
+## Bad examples
+
+I personally hate this pattern of bullet point **Bold Text** colon and then more text:
+<bad_example_of_writing>
+#### macOS
+
+1. **Switch to bash**: Go to Cline Settings → Terminal → Default Terminal Profile → Select "bash"
+2. **Disable Oh-My-Zsh temporarily**: If using zsh, try `mv ~/.zshrc ~/.zshrc.backup` and restart VSCode
+3. **Set environment**: Add to your shell config: `export TERM=xterm-256color`
+
+#### Windows
+
+1. **Use PowerShell 7**: Install from Microsoft Store, then select it in Cline settings
+2. **Disable Windows ConPTY**: VSCode Settings → Terminal › Integrated: Windows Enable Conpty → Uncheck
+3. **Try Command Prompt**: Sometimes simpler is better - switch to cmd.exe
+
+#### Linux
+
+1. **Use bash**: Most reliable option - select in Cline settings
+2. **Check permissions**: Ensure VSCode has terminal access permissions
+3. **Disable custom prompts**: Comment out prompt customizations in `.bashrc`
+
+</bad_example_of_writing>
+
+We should instead strive to write beautiful docs that read well. We can use bullet points and numbered lists but it should read naturally and be delightful to look at hierachally when scanning through the doc. There should be a good balance between blocks of text, code snippets, paragraphs, numbered lists, and bullet points. When scanning the documentation visually, you should feel like you're adminiring a tasteful art piece.
+
+<good_example_of_writing>
+#### macOS
+
+The most common fix is switching to bash. Navigate to Cline Settings → Terminal → Default Terminal Profile and select "bash" from the dropdown.
+
+If you're still having issues, Oh-My-Zsh might be interfering with terminal integration. Try temporarily disabling it:
+- Run `mv ~/.zshrc ~/.zshrc.backup` 
+- Restart VSCode
+
+You can also add `export TERM=xterm-256color` to your shell configuration file to improve compatibility.
+
+#### Windows
+
+PowerShell 7 provides the most reliable experience. Install it from the Microsoft Store, then select it in your Cline settings.
+
+Still seeing problems? Try these solutions:
+- Disable Windows ConPTY: VSCode Settings → Terminal › Integrated: Windows Enable Conpty → uncheck
+- Switch to Command Prompt (cmd.exe) - sometimes simpler shells work better
+
+#### Linux
+
+Bash is your most dependable option. Select it in Cline settings if you haven't already.
+
+Check these common issues:
+- Ensure VSCode has terminal access permissions
+- Temporarily comment out custom prompt configurations in your `.bashrc`
+</good_example_of_writing>
+
+This is much more natural to read. Writing this way creates a conversational flow, and bullet points are used idiomatically.
+
+# Using Mintlify Components Idiomatically
+
+Mintlify's custom components can transform basic documentation into engaging, scannable content that users actually want to read. Here's how to use them effectively.
+
+## Visual Content with Frames
+
+Videos and images should be wrapped in `<Frame>` components rather than using raw HTML or markdown. This creates consistent styling and proper responsive behavior.
+
+For videos, embed them directly rather than linking externally. Users are much more likely to watch a 30-second demonstration than click through to another platform:
+
+```jsx
+<Frame>
+	<iframe
+		style={{ width: "100%", aspectRatio: "16/9" }}
+		src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/your-video-id"
+		title="Feature demonstration"
+		frameBorder="0"
+		allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share"
+		allowFullScreen
+	/>
+</Frame>
+```
+
+Screenshots work similarly - the frame provides visual polish and consistency:
+
+```jsx
+<Frame>
+	<img src="/path/to/screenshot.png" alt="Descriptive alt text" />
+</Frame>
+```
+
+## Cards for Navigation and Overview
+
+Cards excel at creating scannable overviews that link to detailed documentation. They're perfect for feature listings, getting started guides, or any section where users need to choose their path.
+
+Use the two-column layout for related features:
+
+```jsx
+<Columns cols={2}>
+  <Card title="Feature Name" icon="relevant-icon" href="/link/to/docs">
+    Brief description that explains what this feature does and why someone would use it.
+  </Card>
+  
+  <Card title="Related Feature" icon="another-icon" href="/another/link">
+    Another concise explanation that helps users understand the value proposition.
+  </Card>
+</Columns>
+```
+
+The key is writing card descriptions that are informative enough to help users decide whether to click through, but concise enough to scan quickly. Each card should answer "what does this do?" and "why would I need this?"
+
+## Tips and Notes for Context
+
+Use `<Tip>` components for helpful information that enhances the main content without cluttering it:
+
+```jsx
+<Tip>
+	Pro tip: You can combine multiple @ mentions in a single message to give Cline 
+	comprehensive context about your issue.
+</Tip>
+```
+
+`<Note>` components work well for important caveats or technical limitations:
+
+```jsx
+<Note>
+	Due to VS Code limitations, some features require specific settings to work properly.
+</Note>
+```
+
+`<Info>` is also cool:
+
+<Info>
+	**Quick Fix**: If you're experiencing terminal issues, try switching to a simpler shell like `bash` in the Cline settings.
+	This resolves 90% of terminal integration problems.
+</Info>
+
+**Never** fall into that awful **Bold Text** - description pattern that we specifically identified as bad writing. The content should flow naturally as connected thoughts rather than feeling like a templated AI response with forced formatting.

+## When to Use Bullet Points and Numbered Lists Strategically
+
+Bullet points serve functional purposes - use them for:
+
+**Sequential actions or troubleshooting steps** where users need to follow a specific order:
+1. Install the extension
+2. Restart VSCode  
+3. Check the settings panel
+
+**Lists of related options** where users need to choose one approach:
+- Try PowerShell 7 for the most reliable experience
+- Switch to Command Prompt if you're still having issues
+- Use WSL Bash for Linux compatibility
+
+**Quick reference items** that users might need to scan quickly when problem-solving.
+
+**Improving Visual Hierarchy** when there's a wall of text - that's a good time to introduce bullet points or numbered lists.
+
+Each bulleted item or numbered list should be a discrete action or piece of information that benefits from being visually separated. This is a key weapon you can employ when going for that artwork experience I mentioned earlier. 
+
+<good_example_of_bullet_points>
+## Finding and Configuring Terminal Settings
+
+You can access Cline's terminal settings by clicking the settings icon in the Cline sidebar, then navigating to the Terminal section. These settings control how Cline interacts with your system's terminal.
+
+- The **Default Terminal Profile** setting determines which shell Cline uses for executing commands. If you're experiencing issues, this is usually the first thing to change. I personally keep this set to `bash` on all my systems because it's the most reliable option, even though I use `zsh` for my regular terminal work.
+
+- **Shell Integration Timeout** controls how long Cline waits for the terminal to become ready. The default is 4 seconds, but if you have a heavy shell configuration (lots of plugins, slow startup scripts), you might need to increase this to 10 or even 15 seconds. I've found that WSL environments and SSH connections often need longer timeouts.
+
+- The **Enable Aggressive Terminal Reuse** setting determines whether Cline tries to reuse existing terminals even when they're not in the correct directory. When this causes problems (commands running in the wrong directory, virtual environment issues), disabling it creates more terminal instances but ensures each command runs in a clean state.
+
+- **Terminal Output Line Limit** sets how many lines of output Cline will read from commands. The default of 500 lines works for most cases, but you might need to adjust it. For verbose build outputs, increase it. For commands with progress bars that spam thousands of lines, decrease it to around 100 to avoid consuming too many tokens.
+</good_example_of_bullet_points>
+
+## Write Like a Human, Not an AI
+
+Keep it short and direct. If you can say something in fewer words, do it. Long explanations often confuse more than they help.
+
+Use normal sentence lengths. Mix short and long sentences naturally, like you would when talking to someone. Avoid those meandering compound sentences that go on forever.
+
+Cut the corporate speak. Instead of "utilize," say "use." Instead of "in order to," just say "to." Write like you're explaining something to a colleague, not drafting a press release.
+
+Don't over-explain obvious things. If users are reading documentation, they probably understand basic concepts. Respect their intelligence.
+
+## Never use em dashes or emojis
+
+That's pretty much it. Never use them. Only AI writes with em dashes or emojis.
+
+# Anthropomorphizing Cline
+
+When referring to Cline, always call him a "him" not an "it". 
+
+Bad example:
+- When Cline can’t execute commands or read their output, you lose access to one of its most powerful capabilities.
+
+Good Example:
+
+- When Cline can’t execute commands or read their output, you lose access to one of his most powerful capabilities.
+
+# Using "I" when sharing your workflow
+
+Adding a personal touch goes a long way. There are great examples in the docs currently where I use "I" to share how I personally use cline, from dev to dev. It's a great technique.
+
+# Crosslinking relevant documentation pages
+
+Make sure you crosslink when you're done writing the docs. If there are relevant docs, just link to them.
+
+# Brevity is the soul of wit
+
+Don't ramble if you don't need to. Use bullet points and numbered lists. Keep things easy to read.
+
+<bad_example>
+
+When Cline can't execute commands or read their output, you lose access to one of his most powerful capabilities. Terminal integration problems are frustrating, but they're usually fixable with a few simple changes.
+
+## The Most Common Problem: Shell Integration Issues
+
+If you're seeing "Shell integration unavailable" or Cline isn't getting command output, the issue is almost always your shell configuration. Complex shell setups with custom prompts, plugins, and fancy configurations can interfere with VSCode's terminal integration.
+
+**Switch to bash first.** This fixes the problem 90% of the time. Navigate to Cline Settings → Terminal → Default Terminal Profile and select "bash" from the dropdown. Restart VSCode after making this change.
+
+Still having issues? Try increasing the shell integration timeout. Go to Cline Settings → Terminal → Shell Integration Timeout and change it from 4 seconds to 10 seconds. Heavy shell configurations need more time to initialize properly.
+
+If commands are running in the wrong directories or you're seeing weird behavior, disable aggressive terminal reuse. In Cline Settings → Terminal, uncheck "Enable aggressive terminal reuse." This creates more terminal instances but ensures each command runs in a clean environment.
+
+
+</bad_exaxmple>
+
+The first part is total filler, useless to any serious developer. You can tell it's written by a non technical person that doesn't value clean, straightforward information. 
+
+<good_example>
+## Shell Integration Issues
+
+If you're seeing "Shell integration unavailable" or Cline can't read command output, your shell configuration is interfering with VSCode's terminal integration.
+
+**Switch to bash first.** Go to Cline Settings → Terminal → Default Terminal Profile and select "bash." This fixes 90% of problems.
+
+Still broken? Try these:
+- Increase shell integration timeout to 10 seconds in Cline Settings → Terminal
+- Disable "aggressive terminal reuse" if commands run in wrong directories
+- Restart VSCode after making changes
+</good_example>
+
+The good version cuts straight to the problem and solution. No hand-holding, no emotional language about frustration, just the facts: what's wrong, how to fix it, what to try next. Respects that developers want information, not sympathy.RetryClaude can make mistakes. Please double-check responses.
+
+ALWAYS consider your audience. And your audience is devs who don't want their time wasted. Give them the info. I cannot stress this enough. Use bullet points and numbered lists. Prose is good, but every word should actually mean something to the dev reading it.
+
+# Lastly, before you start writing docs
+
+1. Internalize these guidelines. I mean it. 
+
+2. Read `docs/docs.json` and get an understanding of the structure of the docs. This will come in handly at the end when you're doing a final pass so you can cross link to docs where relevant.
+
+3. Read some good examples that I personally wrote and am proud of:
+
+- docs/features/slash-commands/workflows.mdx
+- docs/features/slash-commands/new-task.mdx
+- docs/features/at-mentions/overview.mdx
+- docs/features/drag-and-drop.mdx
+
+4. If the user specifies any other instructions make sure you follow them.

+# Copilot Instructions for Cline
+
+This is a VS Code extension. Read `.clinerules/general.md` for tribal knowledge and nuanced patterns.
+
+## Architecture
+- **Core** (`src/`): `extension.ts` → `WebviewProvider` → `Controller` (single source of truth) → `Task` (agent loop).
+- **Webview** (`webview-ui/`): React/Vite app. State via `ExtensionStateContext.tsx`, synced through message passing.
+- **CLI** (`cli/`): React Ink terminal UI sharing core logic. Update CLI when changing webview features.
+- **Communication**: Protobuf-defined gRPC-like protocol over VS Code message passing. Schemas in `proto/`.
+- **MCP**: `src/services/mcp/McpHub.ts`.
+
+## Build & Test (Critical — non-obvious commands)
+- **Build**: `npm run compile` — NOT `npm run build`.
+- **Watch**: `npm run watch` (extension + webview).
+- **Protos**: `npm run protos` — run **immediately** after any `.proto` change. Generates into `src/shared/proto/`, `src/generated/`.
+- **Tests**: `npm run test:unit`. After prompt/tool changes: `UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=true npm run test:unit`.
+
+## Protobuf RPC Workflow (4 steps)
+1. **Define** in `proto/cline/*.proto`. Naming: `PascalCaseService`, `camelCase` RPCs, `PascalCase` Messages. Use `common.proto` shared types for simple data.
+2. **Generate**: `npm run protos`.
+3. **Backend handler**: `src/core/controller/<domain>/`. 
+4. **Frontend call**: `UiServiceClient.myMethod(Request.create({...}))`.
+- Adding enums (e.g. `ClineSay`) → also update `src/shared/proto-conversions/cline-message.ts`.
+
+## Adding API Providers (silent failure risk)
+Three proto conversion updates are **required** or the provider silently resets to Anthropic:
+1. `proto/cline/models.proto` — add to `ApiProvider` enum.
+2. `convertApiProviderToProto()` in `src/shared/proto-conversions/models/api-configuration-conversion.ts`.
+3. `convertProtoToApiProvider()` in the same file.
+
+Also update: `src/shared/api.ts`, `src/shared/providers/providers.json`, `src/core/api/index.ts`, `webview-ui/.../providerUtils.ts`, `webview-ui/.../validate.ts`, `webview-ui/.../ApiOptions.tsx`, and `cli/src/components/ModelPicker.tsx`.
+
+For Responses API providers: add to `isNextGenModelProvider()` in `src/utils/model-utils.ts` and set `apiFormat: ApiFormat.OPENAI_RESPONSES` on models.
+
+## Adding Tools to System Prompt (5+ file chain)
+1. Add enum to `ClineDefaultTool` in `src/shared/tools.ts`.
+2. Create definition in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/tools/` (export `[GENERIC]` minimum).
+3. Register in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/tools/init.ts`.
+4. Whitelist in `src/core/prompts/system-prompt/variants/*/config.ts` for each model family.
+5. Handler in `src/core/task/tools/handlers/`, wire in `ToolExecutor.ts`.
+6. If tool has UI: add `ClineSay` enum in proto → `ExtensionMessage.ts` → `cline-message.ts` → `ChatRow.tsx`.
+7. Regenerate snapshots: `UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=true npm run test:unit`.
+
+## Modifying System Prompt
+Modular: `components/` (shared) + `variants/` (model-specific) + `templates/` (`{{PLACEHOLDER}}`). Variants override components via `componentOverrides` in `config.ts` or custom `template.ts`. XS variant is heavily condensed inline. Always regenerate snapshots after changes.
+
+## Global State Keys (silent failure risk)
+Adding a key requires: type in `src/shared/storage/state-keys.ts`, read via `context.globalState.get()` in `src/core/storage/utils/state-helpers.ts` `readGlobalStateFromDisk()`, and add to return object. Missing the `.get()` call compiles fine but value is always `undefined`.
+
+## Slash Commands (3 places)
+- `src/core/slash-commands/index.ts` — definitions.
+- `src/core/prompts/commands.ts` — system prompt integration.
+- `webview-ui/src/utils/slash-commands.ts` — webview autocomplete.
+
+## Conventions
+- **Paths**: Always use `src/utils/path` helpers (`toPosixString`) for cross-platform compatibility.
+- **Logging**: `src/shared/services/Logger.ts`.
+- **Feature flags**: See PR #7566 as reference pattern.

+# Build and Pack CLI
+#
+# Builds a CLI tarball from any branch/commit and publishes it as a GitHub Release.
+# Requires write access to the repository (maintainers/collaborators only).
+#
+# Security: Split into two jobs to isolate untrusted build code from write tokens.
+# The build job runs arbitrary ref code with zero permissions. The release job
+# only runs trusted GitHub Actions with write scope.
+#
+# Usage (helper script, auto-detects current branch):
+#   ./scripts/build-cli-artifact.sh
+#   ./scripts/build-cli-artifact.sh feature/my-changes
+#   ./scripts/build-cli-artifact.sh feature/my-changes 1234  # comments on PR
+#
+# Usage (gh CLI directly):
+#   gh workflow run pack-cli.yml -f ref=main
+#   gh workflow run pack-cli.yml -f ref=abc123 -f pr_number=1234
+#
+# Install the built CLI (no auth required):
+#   npm install -g https://github.com/cline/cline/releases/download/cli-build-<sha>/cline-<ver>.tgz
+#
+# Find releases:
+#   gh release list --limit 10

-4. **Version Management with Changesets**
+    **End-to-End (E2E) Testing**
+    
+    Cline includes comprehensive E2E tests using Playwright that simulate real user interactions with the extension in VS Code:
+    
+    - **Running E2E tests:**
+      ```bash
+      npm run test:e2e        # Build and run all E2E tests
+      npm run e2e             # Run tests without rebuilding
+      npm run test:e2e -- --debug  # Run with interactive debugger
+      ```
+    
+    - **Writing E2E tests:**
+      - Tests are located in `src/test/e2e/`
+      - Use the `e2e` fixture for single-root workspace tests
+      - Use `e2eMultiRoot` fixture for multi-root workspace tests
+      - Follow existing patterns in `auth.test.ts`, `chat.test.ts`, `diff.test.ts`, and `editor.test.ts`
+      - See `src/test/e2e/README.md` for detailed documentation
+    
+    - **Debug mode features:**
+      - Interactive Playwright Inspector for step-by-step debugging
+      - Record new interactions and generate test code automatically
+      - Visual VS Code instance for manual testing
+      - Element inspection and selector validation
+    
+    - **Test environment:**
+      - Automated VS Code setup with Cline extension loaded
+      - Mock API server for backend testing
+      - Temporary workspaces with test fixtures
+      - Video recording for failed tests
 
-    - Create a changeset for any user-facing changes using `npm run changeset`
-    - Choose the appropriate version bump:
-        - `major` for breaking changes (1.0.0 → 2.0.0)
-        - `minor` for new features (1.0.0 → 1.1.0)
-        - `patch` for bug fixes (1.0.0 → 1.0.1)
-    - Write clear, descriptive changeset messages that explain the impact
-    - Documentation-only changes don't require changesets
+4. **Versioning & Changelog Notes**
+
+    - Contributors do not need to create changelog-entry files as part of PRs.
+    - Maintainers handle release versioning and changelog curation during the release process.

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

 1. Enter your task and add images to convert mockups into functional apps or fix bugs with screenshots.
 2. Cline starts by analyzing your file structure & source code ASTs, running regex searches, and reading relevant files to get up to speed in existing projects. By carefully managing what information is added to context, Cline can provide valuable assistance even for large, complex projects without overwhelming the context window.

 4. When a task is completed, Cline will present the result to you with a terminal command like `open -a "Google Chrome" index.html`, which you run with a click of a button.

 ### Use any API and Model
 
-Cline supports API providers like OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini, AWS Bedrock, Azure, GCP Vertex, and Cerebras. You can also configure any OpenAI compatible API, or use a local model through LM Studio/Ollama. If you're using OpenRouter, the extension fetches their latest model list, allowing you to use the newest models as soon as they're available.

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

+- 70a9904: Fix JetBrains sign-in regression by adding fallback for openExternal RPC
+- f440f3a: fix: use vscode.env.openExternal for auth in remote environments
+
+  Fixes OAuth authentication in VS Code Server and remote environments by routing browser URL opening through VS Code's native openExternal API instead of the npm 'open' package.
+
+- 70a9904: fix: use vscode.env.asExternalUri for auth callback URLs only in VS Code Web
+
+  Fixes OAuth callback redirect in VS Code Web (`code serve-web`, Codespaces) by using `vscode.env.asExternalUri()` to resolve the callback URI. This is gated behind a `vscode.env.uiKind === UIKind.Web` check so regular desktop VS Code continues to use the `vscode://` URI directly. The `getCallbackUrl` API now accepts a `path` parameter so the full callback URI (including route) is resolved correctly, and callers pass their path directly instead of appending after.
+
+- 5308ded: Updating script documentation and removing unnecessary continue on error
+- b514f18: Prevent duplicate streamed text rows when a partial text update arrives after the same text was already finalized.
+- 26391c9: Fix Bedrock model id
+- d19a877: Unify ViewHeader Styles Across All Views
+- 5dcaa8c: Add Vertex Claude Opus 4.6 1M model option and global endpoint support, and pass the 1M beta header for Vertex Claude requests.

+| `--config <path>` | Configuration directory |
+| `--thinking` | Enable extended thinking (1024 token budget) |
+
+## Development
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# 1. Install all dependencies (root, webview-ui, cli)
+npm run install:all
+
+# 2. Build and link globally so you can run `cline` from anywhere
+npm run cli:link
+
+# 3. Test it
+cline --help
+```
+
+### Scripts
+
+Run these from the repository root:
+
+| Script | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `npm run install:all` | Install deps for root, webview-ui, and cli |
+| `npm run cli:build` | Generate protos and build CLI |
+| `npm run cli:build:production` | Production build (minified) |
+| `npm run cli:link` | Build and `npm link` so you can run `cline` from anywhere |
+| `npm run cli:unlink` | Remove the global `cline` symlink |
+| `npm run cli:dev` | Link + watch mode for development |
+| `npm run cli:watch` | Watch mode only (no initial build) |
+| `npm run cli:test` | Run CLI tests |
+
+### Development Workflow
+
+1. Run `npm run cli:dev` - this links the CLI globally and starts watch mode
+2. Make changes to files in `cli/src/`
+3. The build automatically rebuilds on save
+4. Test your changes by running `cline` in another terminal
+5. When done, run `npm run cli:unlink` to clean up
+
+### Proto Generation
+
+The CLI uses proto-generated types for message passing (same as the VS Code extension). If you modify any `.proto` files, run:
+
+```bash
+npm run protos
+```
+
+This generates TypeScript types in `src/generated/` that both the CLI and extension use.
+
+## Publish
+
+#### 1. Publish to npm
+```bash
+npm publish
+```
+
+#### 2. Update the Homebrew formula
+```bash
+npm run update-brew-formula
+```
+
+#### 3. Test the formula locally
+```bash
+# Create a local tap
+brew tap-new cline/local
+cp ./cli/cline.rb "$(brew --repository)/Library/Taps/cline/homebrew-local/Formula/cline.rb"
+
+# Build from Source
+brew install --build-from-source cline/local/cline
+
+# Install from your local tap
+brew install cline/local/cline
+
+# Clean up when done
+brew untap cline/local
+```
+
+#### 4. If using a tap, commit and push
+```bash
+git add cline.rb
+git commit -m "Update cline to v2.0.0"
+git push
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### How It Works
+
+The CLI directly imports and reuses the core Cline TypeScript codebase (the same code that powers the VS Code extension). This means feature parity is easy to maintain - when core gets updated, the CLI automatically benefits.
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│                     CLI (cli/)                          │
+│  - React Ink terminal UI                                │
+│  - Command parsing (commander)                          │
+│  - Terminal-specific adapters                           │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+                          │
+                          │ direct imports
+                          ▼
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│                  Core (src/core/)                       │
+│  - Controller: task lifecycle, state management         │
+│  - Task: AI API calls, tool execution                   │
+│  - StateManager: persistent storage                     │
+│  - Proto types: message definitions                     │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+Unlike a client-server architecture, the CLI runs everything in a single Node.js process. The "host bridge" pattern provides terminal-appropriate implementations for things the VS Code extension would handle differently (clipboard, file dialogs, etc.).
+
+### Key Files
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `src/index.ts` | Entry point, command definitions |
+| `src/components/App.tsx` | Main React Ink app |
+| `src/components/ChatView.tsx` | Task conversation UI |
+| `src/controllers/CliWebviewProvider.ts` | Bridges core messages to terminal output |
+| `src/vscode-context.ts` | Mock VS Code extension context for core compatibility |
+| `src/vscode-shim.ts` | Shims for VS Code APIs that core depends on |
+| `src/constants/colors.ts` | Terminal color definitions |
+
+### React Ink
+
+The CLI uses [React Ink](https://github.com/vadimdemedes/ink) for its terminal UI. This lets us build the interface with React components that render to the terminal. Key patterns:
+
+- Components in `src/components/` render terminal UI
+- Hooks in `src/hooks/` manage terminal-specific state (size, scrolling)
+- The `useStateSubscriber` hook subscribes to core state changes
+
+## Configuration
+
+The CLI stores its data in `~/.cline/data/` by default:
+
+- `globalState.json`: Global settings and state
+- `secrets.json`: API keys and secrets
+- `workspace/`: Workspace-specific state
+- `tasks/`: Task history and conversation data
+
+Override with the `--config` option or `CLINE_DIR` environment variable.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Build Errors
+
+If you encounter build errors:
+
+```bash
+# Make sure all deps are installed
+npm run install:all
+
+# Regenerate proto types
+npm run protos
+
+# Then rebuild
+npm run cli:build
+```
+
+### "command not found: cline"
+
+The CLI isn't linked globally. Run:
+
+```bash
+npm run cli:link
+```
+
+### Changes Not Reflected
+
+If your code changes aren't showing up:
+
+1. Make sure watch mode is running (`npm run cli:dev`)
+2. Check for TypeScript errors in the watch output
+3. Try unlinking and relinking: `npm run cli:unlink && npm run cli:link`
+
+### Import Errors from Core
+
+The CLI imports from `@core/`, `@shared/`, etc. These paths are defined in the root `tsconfig.json`. If you see import errors, make sure you're building from the repo root, not from inside `cli/`.

+It provides the same powerful AI capabilities as the VS Code extension,
+directly in your terminal.
+.PP
+Cline is an autonomous AI agent that can read, write, and execute code
+across your projects.
+He can create and edit files, run terminal commands, use a headless
+browser, and more\(emall while asking for your approval before taking
+actions.
+.PP
+The CLI supports both interactive mode (with a rich terminal UI) and
+plain text mode (for piped input and scripted workflows).
+.SH MODES OF OPERATION
+\f[B]Interactive Mode\f[R] : When you run \f[B]cline\f[R] without
+arguments, it launches an interactive welcome prompt with a rich
+terminal UI.
+You can type your task, view conversation history, and interact with
+Cline in real\-time.
+.PP
+\f[B]Task Mode\f[R] : Run \f[B]cline \(lqprompt\(rq\f[R] or \f[B]cline
+task \(lqprompt\(rq\f[R] to immediately start a task.
+If stdin is a TTY, you\(cqll see the interactive UI.
+If stdin is piped or output is redirected, the CLI automatically
+switches to plain text mode.
+.PP
+\f[B]Plain Text Mode\f[R] : Activated automatically when stdin is piped,
+output is redirected, or \f[B]\-\-json\f[R]/\f[B]\-\-yolo\f[R] flags are
+used.
+Outputs clean text without the Ink UI, suitable for scripting and CI/CD
+pipelines.
+.SH AGENT BEHAVIOR
+Cline operates in two primary modes:
+.PP
+\f[B]ACT MODE\f[R] : Cline actively uses tools to accomplish tasks.
+He can read files, write code, execute commands, use a headless browser,
+and more.
+This is the default mode for task execution.
+.PP
+\f[B]PLAN MODE\f[R] : Cline gathers information and creates a detailed
+plan before implementation.
+He explores the codebase, asks clarifying questions, and presents a
+strategy for user approval before switching to ACT MODE.
+.SH COMMANDS

+# NAME
+
+cline - AI coding assistant in your terminal
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+**cline** [*prompt*] [*options*]
+
+**cline** *command* [*options*] [*arguments*]
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+**cline** is a command-line interface for the Cline AI coding assistant. It provides the same powerful AI capabilities as the VS Code extension, directly in your terminal.
+
+Cline is an autonomous AI agent that can read, write, and execute code across your projects. He can create and edit files, run terminal commands, use a headless browser, and more—all while asking for your approval before taking actions.
+
+The CLI supports both interactive mode (with a rich terminal UI) and plain text mode (for piped input and scripted workflows).
+
+# MODES OF OPERATION
+
+**Interactive Mode** :   When you run **cline** without arguments, it launches an interactive welcome prompt with a rich terminal UI. You can type your task, view conversation history, and interact with Cline in real-time.
+
+**Task Mode** :   Run **cline "prompt"** or **cline task "prompt"** to immediately start a task. If stdin is a TTY, you'll see the interactive UI. If stdin is piped or output is redirected, the CLI automatically switches to plain text mode.
+
+**Plain Text Mode** :   Activated automatically when stdin is piped, output is redirected, or **\--json**/**\--yolo** flags are used. Outputs clean text without the Ink UI, suitable for scripting and CI/CD pipelines.
+
+# AGENT BEHAVIOR
+
+Cline operates in two primary modes:
+
+**ACT MODE** :   Cline actively uses tools to accomplish tasks. He can read files, write code, execute commands, use a headless browser, and more. This is the default mode for task execution.
+
+**PLAN MODE** :   Cline gathers information and creates a detailed plan before implementation. He explores the codebase, asks clarifying questions, and presents a strategy for user approval before switching to ACT MODE.
+

+
+# ENVIRONMENT
+
+**CLINE_DIR** :   Override the default configuration directory. When set, Cline stores all data in this directory instead of `~/.cline/data/`.
+
+**CLINE_COMMAND_PERMISSIONS** :   JSON configuration for restricting which shell commands Cline can execute. When set, commands are validated against allow/deny patternks before execution. When not set, all commands are allowed.
+
+Format: `{"allow": ["pattern1", "pattern2"], "deny": ["pattern3"], "allowRedirects": true}`
+
+**Fields:**
+
+- **allow** (array of strings): Glob patterns for allowed commands. If specified, only matching commands are permitted. Uses `*` to match any characters and `?` to match a single character. Setting allow on anything will deny all others.
+- **deny** (array of strings): Glob patterns for denied commands. Deny rules take precedence over allow rules.
+- **allowRedirects** (boolean): Whether to allow shell redirects (`>`, `>>`, `<`, etc.). Defaults to false.
+
+**Rule evaluation:**
+
+1. Check for dangerous characters (backticks outside single quotes, unquoted newlines)
+2. Parse command into segments split by operators (`&&`, `||`, `|`, `;`)
+3. If redirects detected and `allowRedirects` is not true, command is denied
+4. Each segment is validated against deny rules first, then allow rules
+5. Subshell contents (`$(...)` and `(...)`) are recursively validated
+6. All segments must pass for the command to be allowed
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Allow only npm and git commands.
+export CLINE_COMMAND_PERMISSIONS='{"allow": ["npm *", "git *"]}'
+
+# Allow development commands but deny dangerous ones. Deny not strictly required here since allow is set.
+export CLINE_COMMAND_PERMISSIONS='{"allow": ["npm *", "git *", "node *"], "deny": ["rm -rf *", "sudo *"]}'
+
+# Allow file operations with redirects
+export CLINE_COMMAND_PERMISSIONS='{"allow": ["cat *", "echo *"], "allowRedirects": true}'
+```
+
