fix(vscode): align plugin command loading with CLI

CI caught two real TypeScript errors that had gone unnoticed locally
(the dev environment's @cline/core build artifacts were stale, masking
them):

1. sdk-plugin-commands.ts: createContributionRegistry() was called
   without type arguments, defaulting TMessage to `unknown`. This
   doesn't match AgentExtension's setup() signature, which expects
   Message[] (per @cline/shared), causing a type mismatch. Mirror the
   CLI's equivalent call in plugin-chat-commands.ts, which explicitly
   parameterizes <Extension, AgentTool, Message[]>.

2. SdkController.ts: emitSessionEvents(messages, event) requires two
   arguments, but the plugin-command reply path only passed one. Add
   the missing status event, matching the pattern used elsewhere in
   this file (e.g. the provider-failure error path) and in
   sdk-followup-coordinator.ts.

-description: Use when preparing, tagging, and publishing a Cline Code desktop app (apps/examples/desktop-app) release. Guides changelog drafting, version bumps in package.json + tauri.conf.json, desktop-vX.Y.Z tags, and the desktop-publish GitHub workflow that builds, signs, notarizes, and updates the auto-update feed.
----
-
-# Desktop App Release
-
-Use this skill when the user asks to release the desktop app, publish Cline Code, bump the desktop version, create a `desktop-vX.Y.Z` tag, or trigger the desktop publish workflow.
-
-> Working directory: run every command below from the repository root.
-
-Desktop releases are macOS-only today (signed + notarized DMG for Apple Silicon and Intel) and are built entirely in GitHub Actions — there is no local publish path. Installed apps discover new releases automatically through the Tauri updater, so publishing a release is what ships the update to every existing user.
-
-## Release contract
-
-- Version sources (must match each other and the tag): `apps/examples/desktop-app/package.json` and `apps/examples/desktop-app/src-tauri/tauri.conf.json`. (`src-tauri/Cargo.toml` has its own version but `tauri.conf.json` overrides it; no need to touch it.)
-- Release tag: `desktop-vX.Y.Z`, where `X.Y.Z` matches both version files.
-- Release prep includes approved release notes, the version bumps, and an `apps/examples/desktop-app/CHANGELOG.md` update.
-- Publish path: `.github/workflows/desktop-publish.yml` (workflow_dispatch, requires the tag to exist, point at the checked-out commit, and be reachable from `origin/main`).
-- The workflow creates the `desktop-vX.Y.Z` GitHub release (DMGs + updater artifacts + `latest.json`) and refreshes the rolling `desktop-latest` release, which is the static auto-update feed every installed app polls. Never delete the `desktop-latest` release or tag.
-- The changelog's top `## X.Y.Z` section is extracted verbatim into the GitHub release body, the Slack announcement, and the updater manifest notes.
-- Always ask before pushing commits or tags.
-
-## Workflow
-
-1. Gather context.
-
-```sh
-git status --short --branch
-git fetch origin --tags
-git tag --list 'desktop-v*' --sort=-v:refname | head -10
-node -p "require('./apps/examples/desktop-app/package.json').version"
-node -p "require('./apps/examples/desktop-app/src-tauri/tauri.conf.json').version"
-```
-
-If there is no `desktop-v*` tag yet, this is the first release; use the desktop app's first commit as the baseline and say the baseline is inferred.
-
-2. Collect release commits.
-
-```sh
-git log <last-desktop-tag>..HEAD --oneline --no-merges -- apps/examples/desktop-app sdk/packages .github/workflows/desktop-publish.yml
-```
-
-The sidecar bundles `@cline/core` and friends from the monorepo, so SDK changes ship inside the desktop app too. Fold user-visible SDK changes (providers, models, behavior fixes) into the notes; skip purely internal ones.
-
-3. Draft user-facing release notes.
-
-Flat bullet list, user-facing language. Present the draft and wait for approval before editing files.
-
-4. Decide the version bump.
-
-Ask whether this is patch, minor, major, or an explicit version. Do not guess if the user has not made it clear.
-
-5. Update release files.
-
-- `apps/examples/desktop-app/package.json` → new version
-- `apps/examples/desktop-app/src-tauri/tauri.conf.json` → same version
-- Prepend `## X.Y.Z` (no date) to `apps/examples/desktop-app/CHANGELOG.md` with the approved notes.
-
-6. Verify before committing.
-
-```sh
-bun -F @cline/code typecheck
-bun test apps/examples/desktop-app/scripts/generate-update-manifest.test.ts
-```
-
-The full desktop bundle can only be built on macOS; the workflow's build job is the real verification. For extra local confidence on a Mac checkout, `bun run package:desktop:mac --allow-unsigned-mac` from the app directory.
-
-7. Commit release changes.
-
-```sh
-git add apps/examples/desktop-app/package.json apps/examples/desktop-app/src-tauri/tauri.conf.json apps/examples/desktop-app/CHANGELOG.md
-git commit -m "chore(desktop): release vX.Y.Z"
-```
-
-Ask before pushing the release commit, then before creating and pushing the tag:
-
-```sh
-git push origin HEAD
-git tag -a desktop-vX.Y.Z -m "Desktop vX.Y.Z"
-git push origin refs/tags/desktop-vX.Y.Z
-```
-
-8. Publish.
-
-The release commit must be on `main` and the tag pushed first.
-
-```sh
-gh workflow run desktop-publish.yml -f git_tag=desktop-vX.Y.Z -f confirm_publish=publish
-gh run list --workflow=desktop-publish.yml --limit=1 --json url,status,conclusion,createdAt --jq '.[0]'
-```
-
-The workflow builds both architectures in parallel (aarch64 native, x86_64 cross-compiled), signs with the Developer ID certificate, notarizes with the App Store Connect API key, signs updater artifacts with the Tauri updater key, creates the GitHub release, refreshes `desktop-latest/latest.json`, and posts to Slack. Notarization typically adds 2–10 minutes.
-
-If the workflow fails on missing credentials, see "Repo secrets (one-time setup)" below.
-
-9. Verify the update feed after the run succeeds.
-
-```sh
-curl -sL https://github.com/cline/cline/releases/download/desktop-latest/latest.json | head -30
-```
-
-The `version` field must be the new release and both `darwin-aarch64` and `darwin-x86_64` URLs must point at the new `desktop-vX.Y.Z` assets. Installed apps pick the update up on next launch or within 2 hours.
-
-10. Final response.
-
-Report: version, tag, changelog updated, commit hash, what was pushed, workflow URL, and the feed verification result.
-
-## Repo secrets (one-time setup)
-
-The workflow needs these repository secrets. The Apple ones come from the same
-Apple Developer account used for manual signing (see the app README's "macOS
-signing & notarization" section for how to obtain them):
-
-| Secret | Value |
-| --- | --- |
-| `APPLE_CERTIFICATE` | Base64 of the **Developer ID Application** identity exported from Keychain Access as `.p12` (must include the private key): `base64 -i certificate.p12 \| pbcopy` |
-| `APPLE_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD` | The password chosen when exporting the `.p12` |
-| `APPLE_SIGNING_IDENTITY` | `Developer ID Application: <Team Name> (<TEAMID>)` — from `security find-identity -v -p codesigning` |
-| `APPLE_API_KEY` | App Store Connect API **Key ID** (notarization) |
-| `APPLE_API_KEY_CONTENT` | Contents of the `AuthKey_<KEYID>.p8` file |
-| `APPLE_API_ISSUER` | App Store Connect **Issuer ID** (UUID from Users and Access → Integrations) |
-| `TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY` | Contents of the Tauri updater private key (`tauri signer generate`). If this key is ever lost, shipped apps can no longer verify updates — guard it. |
-| `TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD` | Password for that key |
-
-The Slack + telemetry secrets (`SLACK_RELEASE_BOT_TOKEN`, `TELEMETRY_SERVICE_API_KEY`,
-OTEL settings) are shared with the CLI publish workflow and already configured.

-description: Use when releasing the Cline VS Code extension — stable (currently the combined legacy+next A/B VSIX via ext-vscode-ab-package), nightly (ext-vscode-publish-nightly), or a legacy-branch hotfix (ext-vscode-publish-legacy). Guides version selection, changelog, PostHog rollout-flag coordination, workflow dispatch, environment approvals, tagging, and post-publish verification, plus the eventual cutover to publishing the SDK extension standalone.
----
-
-# VS Code Extension Release
-
-Use this skill when the user asks to release, publish, or ship the VS Code extension — stable, nightly, or a legacy hotfix — or to dial the rollout, or to cut over to the SDK extension permanently.
-
-> Working directory: repo root. All workflows are dispatched from `main` (GitHub requires the workflow file on the default branch; each workflow checks out the refs it actually builds).
-
-## The current era: combined A/B rollout
-
-We are mid-migration from the legacy (npm, pre-SDK) extension to the next (SDK-based, bun) extension. Until the cutover is complete, **the stable and nightly listings ship a combined VSIX**: a small loader + two complete extensions (`next/` built from `main`, `legacy/` built from the `legacy-extension` branch). The loader picks one per window based on the PostHog flag `ext-sdk-bundle-rollout`. Deep-dive docs: `apps/vscode-rollout/README.md` (authoritative) and PR #12253 (design + runbook comments).
-
-Endgame (see "Cutover" at the bottom): once the next bundle is trusted at 100%, stable goes back to a plain build of `main` via `ext-vscode-publish-stable.yml` and all the legacy/rollout machinery is retired.
-
-### The listings and the workflows
-
-| Channel | Marketplace ID | Workflow | Trigger | Version |
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-| Stable (combined) | `saoudrizwan.claude-dev` | `ext-vscode-ab-package.yml` | dispatch only; `publish` input defaults false | manual input (semver, e.g. `4.1.0`) |
-| Nightly (combined) | `saoudrizwan.cline-nightly` | `ext-vscode-publish-nightly.yml` | cron 12:00 UTC + dispatch | auto `<major>.<minor>.<unix-ts>` from main's `apps/vscode/package.json` |
-| Legacy hotfix (standalone) | `saoudrizwan.claude-dev` | `ext-vscode-publish-legacy.yml` | dispatch | from `apps/vscode/package.json` on `legacy-extension` |
-| Stable standalone (post-cutover) | `saoudrizwan.claude-dev` | `ext-vscode-publish-stable.yml` | dispatch | from `apps/vscode/package.json` on `main` |
-
-All three publish paths gate on tests before publishing: nightly and ab-package run the reusable bun suite (`ext-vscode-test.yml`, tests `main`) — ab-package additionally runs the legacy branch's npm suite — and the legacy workflow inlines the npm suite. Environment gates: stable paths use `publish` → `Publish` environment (required reviewers approve in the Actions UI); nightly uses `PublishNightly` (branch policy only, no reviewers — a reviewer requirement would block the cron).
-
-## Golden rules (read before any release)
-
-1. **One listing, one version line.** `claude-dev` is published from multiple workflows/branches. Every stable publish must use a version **strictly above the highest version ever published to the listing from any branch** — marketplace versions are monotonic and cannot be unpublished (supersede, never delete). Check what's live first:
-
-   ```bash
-   curl -s -X POST "https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/gallery/extensionquery" \
-     -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json;api-version=3.0-preview.1" \
-     -d '{"filters":[{"criteria":[{"filterType":7,"value":"saoudrizwan.claude-dev"}]}],"flags":16}' \
-     | python3 -c "import json,sys; v=json.load(sys.stdin)['results'][0]['extensions'][0]['versions'][0]; print(v['version'], v['lastUpdated'])"
-   ```
-
-2. **Check the flag BEFORE any stable combined publish.** `ext-sdk-bundle-rollout` is **shared between nightly and stable** — the loader sends only a machine id to `/decide`, no channel property, so there is no per-channel targeting. If the flag is high (nightly dogfooding) and you publish stable, stable users get the next bundle at that same percentage. Verify the effective percentage empirically (no PostHog admin needed — sample `/decide` with random ids using the key inlined in any shipped loader):
-
-   ```bash
-   node -e '
-   const KEY = process.argv[1]; // phc_... extracted from a shipped VSIX loader
-   (async () => {
-     let t = 0, n = 200;
-     for (let i = 0; i < n; i += 20) {
-       const rs = await Promise.all(Array.from({length: 20}, (_, j) =>
-         fetch("https://data.cline.bot/decide?v=3", { method: "POST",
-           headers: {"Content-Type": "application/json"},
-           body: JSON.stringify({api_key: KEY, distinct_id: `probe-${i+j}-${Math.random()}`})
-         }).then(r => r.json())));
-       for (const r of rs) if ((r.featureFlags||{})["ext-sdk-bundle-rollout"] === true) t++;
-     }
-     console.log(`~${(100*t/n).toFixed(1)}% (${t}/${n})`);
-   })()' "$KEY"
-   ```
-
-   Flag changes are made in the PostHog UI (Cline project). **0% is the kill switch** — the flag is two-way; there is no separate killswitch flag. Dialing down demotes machines back to legacy on their next window reload.
-
-3. **Ask before pushing** commits or tags. Environment approvals are the maintainer's to give.
-
-4. **Changelog lives at the repo ROOT** (`CHANGELOG.md`), on the branch being released — not `apps/vscode/CHANGELOG.md` (doesn't exist). The legacy and stable workflows hard-fail unless the first heading is exactly `## [<version>]`.
-
-5. **Stuck concurrency groups**: `ext-vscode-ab-package` groups on the version with `cancel-in-progress: false`. A run left `waiting` on environment approval blocks every later dispatch of the same version — cancel it (`gh run cancel <id>`) before re-dispatching.
-
-## Stable release (combined A/B VSIX) — the current stable path
-
-### Pre-flight
-
-```bash
-# 1. What's live, and what version comes next (must exceed it — rule 1)
-# 2. Flag percentage (rule 2) — decide where it should be for this release
-# 3. Legacy tip = what the non-promoted cohort will run; confirm it's the shipped hotfix line
-git fetch origin main legacy-extension
-git log --oneline -3 origin/legacy-extension
-
-# 4. Cheap local rehearsal of the most likely build failure: the union manifest
-#    hard-fails if views/viewsContainers/configuration diverged between branches.
-git show origin/main:apps/vscode/package.json > /tmp/next.json
-git show origin/legacy-extension:apps/vscode/package.json > /tmp/legacy.json
-node apps/vscode-rollout/scripts/gen-manifest.mjs --next /tmp/next.json --legacy /tmp/legacy.json --version <VERSION>
-# Expected warnings only: engines union (takes newer) + walkthrough copy drift.
-```
-
-Release prep on `main` (PR, not direct push):
-- Add `## [<VERSION>]` entry at the top of root `CHANGELOG.md`.
-- Bump `apps/vscode/package.json` to `<VERSION>` so the repo reflects the published line. Side effect: nightly versions become `<major>.<minor>.<unix-ts>` of the new base — harmless (separate listing, still monotonic).
-
-### Dispatch
-
-```bash
-gh workflow run ext-vscode-ab-package.yml --ref main \
-  -f version=<VERSION> -f next-ref=main -f legacy-ref=legacy-extension -f publish=true
-# publish=false builds an installable .vsix artifact without publishing, but the
-# package job still requires the same Publish environment approval — an
-# unapproved rehearsal sits in `waiting` and blocks that version's concurrency
-# group (rule 5).
-gh run list --workflow=ext-vscode-ab-package.yml --limit 1
-```
-
-Both test suites run first (no approval needed); the gated `package` job then **waits for `Publish` environment approval** (Actions → run → "Review deployments"). Both bundles build the exact revisions their test gates ran against (branch names are resolved once — commits landing on either branch mid-run or during the approval wait are not picked up); `publish=true` is additionally refused for any `next-ref` other than `main` (the bun gate only tests main — non-main next-refs are for build-only artifact rehearsals). Check what a run is waiting on:
-
-```bash
-gh api repos/cline/cline/actions/runs/<run-id>/pending_deployments
-```
-
-### Post-publish
-
-1. Verify the marketplace serves the new version (query from rule 1) — expect minutes-to-an-hour of validation lag after "Published" appears in the logs.
-2. Tag, GitHub Release (with the .vsix attached), and the Slack release-bot post happen **automatically** after a real publish (all `continue-on-error` — the publish itself already succeeded, so bookkeeping failures leave the run green). Verify they landed; the known failure is the tag push when the built commit touches `.github/workflows/**` (default token cannot create such refs — no grantable permission fixes it). Manual fallback:
-
-   ```bash
-   git tag v<VERSION> <main-sha-built>   # ask before pushing
-   git push origin v<VERSION>
-   gh release create v<VERSION> --title "v<VERSION>" --notes "<changelog section>" <path-to.vsix>
-   ```
-
-   A real publish also **hard-fails early** if root `CHANGELOG.md` on the built main revision doesn't start with `## [<VERSION>]` — the release prep PR must be merged before dispatching.
-
-3. Thorough artifact check (`gh run download <run-id>`): union `package.json` is `saoudrizwan.claude-dev@<VERSION>`, `next/package.json` and `legacy/package.json` carry the SAME version, `grep -c 'phc_' extension/extension.js` ≥ 1 (loader key inlined), no leftover `process.env.TELEMETRY_SERVICE_API_KEY` / `process.env.CLINE_ROLLOUT_VARIANT` literals in either bundle's dist (leftovers = a build ran without its env and telemetry is silently dead).
-4. Monitor: `extension.rollout.bundle_activated` in `otel.otel_logs` filtered to `extension_version = '<VERSION>'` (stable cohort is cleanly separable — nightly versions are timestamps). Watch the next/legacy ratio and the crash-fallback rate; Metabase dashboards 17 (rollout + task error rate) and 19 (error deep dive). `extension.rollout.loader_decision` (incl. `double_failure`) is PostHog-only, not in ClickHouse.
-5. Dial the flag per the rollout plan (e.g. 0% at publish → 1% → up), verifying each change with the probe from rule 2. Announce demotions ahead of time — dialing down also demotes nightly dogfooders unless they set `"cline-nightly.rollout.bundleOverride": "next"`.
-
-### Known caveats of this path
-
-- **Marketplace only** — no Open VSX step (both standalone workflows have one). Open VSX users stay on the last standalone version until a standalone publish or the cutover.
-- **`engines.vscode` unions upward** (main's floor wins, e.g. `^1.101.0` vs legacy's `^1.84.0`): users on older VS Code are never offered the combined VSIX. Fail-safe during rollout; must be resolved before 100%.
-- A red run can still mean a successful publish on paths that tag (see Gotchas).
-
-## Nightly release
-
-Happens automatically (cron 12:00 UTC). Manual cut:
-
-```bash
-gh workflow run ext-vscode-publish-nightly.yml --ref main                 # real publish
-gh workflow run ext-vscode-publish-nightly.yml --ref main -f dry-run=true # artifact only
-gh run watch <run-id> --exit-status --interval 60
-```
-
-No changelog/version prep — the version is computed. Verify with the marketplace query against `saoudrizwan.cline-nightly`.
-
-**Red run ≠ failed publish**: the final tag-push step fails whenever main's HEAD touches `.github/workflows/**` (default token cannot create such refs). If "Published" appears in the logs, the release went out; push the `nightly-main-<UTC ts>-<sha12>` tag manually with user credentials.
-
-## Legacy hotfix release (and emergency full rollback)
-
-For shipping a fix on the `legacy-extension` branch — or as the **structural rollback** from a bad combined stable VSIX: a standalone legacy publish at a higher version supersedes the combined VSIX entirely (loader and all) for every user. (For "next bundle misbehaving" you don't need this — dial the flag to 0% instead.)
-
-```bash
-# On legacy-extension: commit the fix, bump apps/vscode/package.json ABOVE the
-# highest version ever published to the listing (rule 1 — including combined
-# versions, e.g. combined 4.1.0 live -> hotfix is 4.1.1, not 4.0.13),
-# add the matching `## [x.y.z]` entry to root CHANGELOG.md, push.
-gh workflow run ext-vscode-publish-legacy.yml --ref main \
-  -f release-type=release -f branch=legacy-extension
-```
-
-npm test suite runs ungated; the publish job waits on the `Publish` environment. This workflow derives + pushes the `v<version>` tag itself and creates the GitHub release — no manual tagging. Publishes to Marketplace **and** Open VSX. The branch is the npm codebase: use `npm`, never `bun`, and expect the old monolith layout (`apps/vscode/src/core/...`).
-
-## Cutover: retiring the A/B machinery (the endgame)
-
-When the next bundle has held at 100% long enough to trust:
-
-1. **Resolve the engines floor**: decide whether stranding VS Code < main's `engines.vscode` on the last combined version is acceptable, or lower main's floor first.
-2. Bump `apps/vscode/package.json` on `main` above everything ever published; root `CHANGELOG.md` entry to match (both are enforced by the workflow).
-3. Ship standalone from main: `gh workflow run ext-vscode-publish-stable.yml --ref main` — tests main, tags `v<version>` itself, creates the GitHub release, publishes Marketplace + Open VSX (this also heals the Open VSX gap).
-4. Watch the same rollout telemetry through the transition — `extension_variant` disappears from events as users leave combined builds, which is itself the adoption signal.
-5. Only after the standalone version dominates: retire `legacy-extension` (keep for history), delete `ext-vscode-publish-legacy.yml` and `ext-vscode-ab-package.yml`, convert the nightly workflow back to a plain build of main, remove `apps/vscode-rollout/`, and archive the `ext-sdk-bundle-rollout` flag in PostHog (harmless to machines still on a combined VSIX: absent flag fails safe to... nothing changing until they update, but their loader treats a deleted flag as legacy — leave the flag at 100% until combined-VSIX activations flatline, then archive).
-6. Update this skill: delete the combined-era sections and keep the standalone flow.
-
-## Gotchas index
-
-- `inputs.*` are empty strings on `schedule` events — preserve `|| 'default'` fallbacks when editing the nightly workflow.
-- `bun run package` in `apps/vscode` does not build `@cline/*` workspace deps — fresh checkouts need `bun run build:sdk` first (workflows handle this).
-- Job-level `if:` ref checks in workflow YAML are advisory (a dispatched branch runs its own copy of the file); the enforced boundary is each environment's deployment-branch policy in repo settings.
-- Marketplace PATs (`VSCE_PAT`/`OVSX_PAT`) are only mounted into publish steps; neither publish workflow has an untrusted trigger surface.
-- Environment-approval runs left waiting don't time out quickly — they sit for days and (for ab-package) block their version's concurrency group.
-- Local forcing for manual testing: `CLINE_BUNDLE_OVERRIDE=next|legacy` env (launch VS Code fresh from a terminal) or the `<prefix>.rollout.bundleOverride` setting + reload; both report as `override` in telemetry so they don't pollute cohort data.

-- Use prerelease versions such as `0.2.0-next.0` for `next`; do not publish a
-  version intended for `latest` under the preview tag because npm versions
-  cannot be republished.
-- There is no UI Git tag, GitHub release, schedule, or Slack announcement.
-- The workflow runs only by manual dispatch. Every release attempt runs the UI
-  quality checks before publishing and requires `confirm_publish=publish` from
-  `main`.
-- The publish job and npm trust relationship use the protected `Publish`
-  environment.
-- Every npm publication needs a new semver version; npm versions are immutable.
-- Always ask before pushing commits, triggering the publish workflow, changing
-  npm trust settings, or running a local publish command.
-
-## Normal release
-
-1. Inspect the branch, current version, npm state, and UI changes.
-
-```sh
-git status --short --branch
-node -p "require('./sdk/packages/ui/package.json').version"
-npm view @cline/ui dist-tags versions --json
-git log --oneline --no-merges -- \
-  sdk/packages/ui apps/examples/desktop-app/webview/components/views/chat \
-  .github/workflows/ui-publish.yml
-```
-
-2. Ask for the npm channel and version together. For `latest`, ask for patch,
-   minor, major, or an explicit version. For `next`, require an explicit
-   prerelease version such as `0.2.0-next.0`. Do not guess. Update only
-   `sdk/packages/ui/package.json` and its workspace version in `bun.lock`. Do
-   not run the SDK version command.
-
-3. Validate the release candidate.
-
-```sh
-bun install --filter @cline/ui --filter @cline/code --frozen-lockfile
-bun -F @cline/ui typecheck
-bun -F @cline/ui test
-bun -F @cline/ui test:package
-bun -F @cline/ui build-storybook
-bun -F @cline/code test:chat-ui
-```
-
-The packed-package test installs the tarball with Bun/React 19 and with
-npm/Node/React 18.
-Inspect `bun pm pack --dry-run` when the exported file set changed.
-
-4. Commit the version bump separately from feature work. Ask before pushing.
-
-```sh
-git add sdk/packages/ui/package.json bun.lock
-git commit -m "chore(ui): release vX.Y.Z"
-git push origin HEAD
-```
-
-5. After the release commit reaches `main`, restate the selected npm tag and ask
-   for explicit publish approval. Then trigger and watch the standalone
-   workflow:
-
-```sh
-run_url=$(gh workflow run ui-publish.yml --ref main \
-  -f npm_tag=latest \
-  -f confirm_publish=publish)
-test -n "$run_url"
-run_id=${run_url##*/}
-gh run watch "$run_id" --exit-status
-```
-
-Use `npm_tag=next` only for a deliberate preview. Do not report success until
-the workflow succeeds and npm shows the exact version under the selected tag.
-
-```sh
-npm view @cline/ui dist-tags versions --json
-```
-
-## One-time npm bootstrap
-
-Use this only while `npm view @cline/ui` returns `E404`. npm requires the
-package to exist before its GitHub trusted publisher can be configured.
-
-1. Merge the package and `ui-publish.yml` to `main`. Start from a clean,
-   reviewed `main` checkout. Verify authentication, account 2FA, and write
-   access to the `@cline` npm organization. The `npm trust` command in step 4
-   requires npm CLI 11.15 or newer; the automated trusted-publishing workflow
-   itself enforces npm 11.5.1 or newer.
-
-```sh
-npm --version
-npm whoami
-npm view @cline/ui version
-```
-
-If npm is older than 11.15, ask before upgrading with
-`npm install -g npm@^11.15.0`.
-
-2. Run the normal release validation in step 3 above. Then build, pack, test,
-   and inspect the exact initial tarball. Record the absolute archive path
-   printed by the final command.
-
-```sh
-bun -F @cline/ui build
-pack_dir=$(mktemp -d)
-(cd sdk/packages/ui && bun pm pack --ignore-scripts --destination "$pack_dir" --quiet)
-tarball=$(find "$pack_dir" -maxdepth 1 -name '*.tgz' -print -quit)
-test -n "$tarball"
-bun sdk/packages/ui/scripts/smoke-package.ts "$tarball"
-tar -tzf "$tarball"
-printf 'Bootstrap archive: %s\n' "$tarball"
-```
-
-3. Ask for explicit approval, then publish the initial version publicly under
-   `latest`:
-
-```sh
-npm publish /absolute/path/from-step-2.tgz --access public --tag latest
-```
-
-4. Ask separately before configuring the standalone workflow as the trusted
-   publisher:
-
-```sh
-npm trust github @cline/ui \
-  --repo cline/cline \
-  --file ui-publish.yml \
-  --env Publish \
-  --allow-publish
-```
-
-5. Verify both package state and trust. Every later release uses the workflow;
-   do not add a long-lived npm token.
-
-```sh
-npm view @cline/ui dist-tags versions --json
-npm trust list @cline/ui
-```
-
-## Final report
-
-Report the version and npm tag, release commit, whether anything was pushed,
-workflow URL or bootstrap result, npm verification, and tests/builds run. If
-the package still returns `E404`, state that bootstrap remains required.

 - The whole repo (including `apps/vscode`) uses **bun** for package management and task running. Emit `bun run X` / `bun install` / `bunx <bin>` / `bun file.ts`, never npm/npx. Node remains the *runtime* (VS Code's extension host and the standalone cline-core are Node), so Node-runtime tokens are legitimate and must not be "fixed" to bun — see @.clinerules/bun-and-node.md for the keep-list vs rewrite-list.
 - Avoid provider-specific string matching / hardcoded provider branches when fixing provider/config plumbing. Prefer provider metadata, shared catalog/defaults, explicit protocol/client capabilities, or centralized normalization utilities that apply by data shape rather than `providerId === "..."`. If a provider exception seems necessary, stop and explain why instead of adding ad-hoc string matching.
 - This is a VS Code extension—check `package.json` for available scripts before trying to verify builds (e.g., `bun run compile`, not `bun run build`).
-- When reading a configuration files that users may edit, use `readFileStrippingUtf8Bom`, `readFileSyncStrippingUtf8Bom`, or `stripUtf8Bom` from `@cline/shared/node`. DON'T strip byte order marks of user files handled by tools/passed to models.
 - When creating PRs, contributors should not create changelog-entry files. Maintainers handle release versioning and changelog curation during the release process.

-
-## Cloud Agent Instructions
-
-### Cline CLI
-- Run from source: `bun run cli` (interactive: `bun run cli -i`; one-shot: append a prompt). This resolves to `apps/cli` and **auto-spawns the `@cline/cline-hub` daemon** — you do not start the hub separately.
-- Inspect local health with `bun run cli doctor`; `bun run cli version` prints the version.
-- An actual agent turn requires an **LLM provider credential**. With no credentials the default `cline` provider fails fast with an `Unauthorized` error and the interactive TUI shows a provider sign-in screen. Configure via `cline auth` or provider env vars (e.g. `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `CLINE_API_KEY`, `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`); see `apps/cli/README.md`.
-
-### Build / Lint / test
-- SDK packages (`@cline/shared|llms|agents|core|sdk`) resolve each other through compiled `dist/` (their `exports` point only at `dist/`, with no `development` source condition). You **must** run `bun run build:sdk` after changing SDK dependencies/source before running the CLI or SDK tests, otherwise imports fail with missing `@cline/*` / missing `dist/` errors. Running processes do **not** hot-reload SDK source changes — rebuild and restart.\
-- Known cloud-env test artifact: `@cline/core` test `src/services/workspace/workspace-manifest.test.ts > readGitWorkspaceState > prefers origin and returns the current branch` fails because cloud VMs configure git `insteadOf` rules that rewrite GitHub remotes to `https://x-access-token:...@github.com/...`. This is an environment artifact, not a code bug.
-- Some `@cline/cli` e2e assertions (`bun -F @cline/cli test:e2e`) may fail on exact tool-listing string formats; treat as pre-existing test drift, not an environment problem.
-
-### GUI display
-- A virtual X display is live at **`DISPLAY=:1`** (the same desktop used for screenshots). GUI apps (VS Code, the Tauri desktop window) launched with `DISPLAY=:1` render there and can be screenshotted — no need to start your own `xvfb`. Prefer starting long-running GUI/dev processes in a `tmux` session (see the tmux guidance) so they survive.
-
-### VS Code extension (`apps/vscode`, package `claude-dev`)
-Toolchain is pre-installed and persisted in the VM: generated gRPC/proto code, the bundled `ripgrep` binaries (`apps/vscode/bin/`), the built webview (`webview-ui/build`), the esbuild bundle (`dist/extension.js`), VS Code itself (`/usr/bin/code`), and the GUI system libraries its tests need.
-- **Codegen prerequisite:** `bun run protos` (from `apps/vscode`) regenerates `src/generated/*` and the webview grpc client. The `dev`, `build:webview`, and `check-types` scripts already run it, so proto changes are picked up by those commands; run it manually only if you edit `.proto` files without a full build.
-- **Build:** `bun run build:webview` (webview UI, ~15s) then `bun esbuild.mjs` (extension bundle). `bun run package` does the full production build.
-- **Run it (dev host):** `DISPLAY=:1 code --no-sandbox --user-data-dir=/tmp/vscode-userdata --extensionDevelopmentPath=/workspace/apps/vscode <some-folder>`, then click the Cline icon in the Activity Bar to open the webview. (`--no-sandbox` is required in this container.)
-- **Test:** `bun run test:unit` (bun-based, ~984 tests, no VS Code host needed). `bun run test:integration` (`@vscode/test-electron`, downloads a VS Code build, runs under the GUI libs) and `bun run test:e2e` (Playwright) exercise a real extension host — heavier, and the GUI libs for them are already installed.
-- One-time deps (already installed, listed here in case they must be recreated): ripgrep via `bun run download-ripgrep`; VS Code test GUI libs per `CONTRIBUTING.md` (`libnss3`, `libatk*`, `libgbm1`, `xvfb`, etc.).
-
-### Desktop app (`apps/examples/desktop-app`, package `@cline/code`)
-A Tauri v2 (Rust) shell + Next.js webview + a Bun "sidecar" backend. Rust and the Tauri Linux system libs are pre-installed and persisted.
-- **Headless (no Rust/window):** run the backend and UI separately — `bun run dev:sidecar` (Bun backend on `127.0.0.1:3126`, serves `ws://.../transport`) and `bun run dev:web` (Next.js UI on `http://localhost:3125`).
-- **Native window:** `bun run dev` (`tauri dev`) — its `beforeDevCommand` builds the sidecar binary and starts `dev:web` (`:3125`), then Rust `main.rs` spawns the sidecar; so free ports `3125`/`3126` first. Launch with `DISPLAY=:1` to see the window. A `libEGL: DRI3 error` warning is benign (software rendering) — the WebKitGTK window still renders.
-- **Rust version caveat:** the crate graph needs Cargo's `edition2024` feature, so **Rust ≥1.85** is required (the VM's base 1.83 fails with "feature `edition2024` is required"). The toolchain here was updated via `rustup default stable` (currently 1.97). First `cargo` build downloads/compiles the full Tauri crate graph (a few minutes); subsequent builds are cached.
-- **System libs (already installed):** `libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev`, `libgtk-3-dev`, `libayatana-appindicator3-dev`, `librsvg2-dev`, `libxdo-dev`, `libssl-dev`, `build-essential`.
-- **Test/typecheck:** `bun run typecheck`, `bun run test:chat-ui` (Vitest). Both trigger `build:ui` first.

 # Changelog
 
-## [4.1.2]
-
-### Added
-
-- Show which extension variant is active — "Legacy" or "Next" — next to the version in the settings About page, in both bundles of the combined rollout package.
-
-## [4.1.1]
-
-### Changed
-
-- Remove vestigial MCP server-key machinery from McpHub — native MCP tool calls now route by server name instead of a random in-memory uid, so routing survives restarts and server list changes.
-
-## [4.1.0]
-
-### Changed
-
-- Convert the stable extension to a combined A/B package: one VSIX containing both the current (legacy) extension and the new SDK-based extension, plus a loader that activates exactly one per window via a staged remote rollout. For nearly all users nothing changes — the loader activates the same extension as 4.0.12; a small percentage (starting at 1%) is gradually opted into the SDK-based extension. If the new extension fails to activate, the loader falls back to the current one in the same window. Settings and credentials are shared between the two.
-
-## [4.0.12]
-
-### Added
-
-- Add support for free Cline models, shown as "(free)" in the model picker, with a dedicated error card that includes the reset time when the free limit is reached.

-### Fixed
-
-- Keep Claude Code responses that were already streamed when the CLI exits with a max-turns error, instead of discarding a valid response.
-
-## [4.0.11]
-
-### Added
-
-- Add Claude Opus 5 across the Anthropic, Claude Code, Bedrock, Vertex, Cline, and OpenRouter providers, including 1M context window variants.
-- Add Moonshot Kimi K3 support.
-- Include the host plugin version in telemetry events.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Correct pricing for the Claude Opus 1M context variants, which overstated costs for requests above 200k tokens.
-- Enable native tool calling for Kimi K3 models, fixing empty responses.
-
-## [4.0.10]
-
-### Added
-
-- Add telemetry to track when Cline reaches the consecutive mistake limit.

-- Add GPT-5.6 ChatGPT subscription models.
-
-### Changed
-
-- Soften and shorten the message shown when Cline hits the consecutive mistake limit.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Handle cumulative usage snapshots from OpenAI-compatible providers so token counts are no longer over-reported.
-- Load skills from files saved as UTF-8 with a byte-order mark (BOM).
-
-## [4.0.8]
-
-### Added
-
-- Add more models to the GCP Vertex provider, plus a free-form entry option in the model dropdown for specifying custom Vertex models.
-
-## [4.0.7]
-
-### Added
-
-- Add a ClinePass limit-reached error with a one-click option to switch to Cline usage-based billing.

-
-## [4.0.4]
-
-### Changed
-
-- Fully remove the ClinePass feature flag so ClinePass is available everywhere in the UI — onboarding, settings, the welcome promo banner, and the credit-limit "Switch to ClinePass" action.
-
-## [4.0.3]
-
-### Changed
-
-- Enable the ClinePass provider for all users by removing the feature-flag gate that previously fell back to the standard Cline provider.
-
-## [4.0.2]
-
-### Added
-
-- Add reasoning effort support (including `xhigh`) for DeepSeek thinking models.
-- Improve the ClinePass provider experience with clearer reasoning controls and model selection.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Show reasoning effort controls for ClinePass models and align ClinePass model resolution with the rest of the provider.
-- Prefer canonical Cline Z.ai model ids and polish ClinePass and Z.ai model metadata.
-- Fix environment variable replacement in the webview.
-- Default focus chain settings in webview state so the toggle reflects the correct value on load.
-
-## [4.0.1]
-
-### Changed
-
-- Roll the stable VS Code extension back to the pre-SDK-migration codebase to resolve regressions reported in 4.0.0. This release ships the 3.89.2 extension code under a higher version number so existing 4.0.0 users receive the update. SDK-migration work continues separately on `main`.

 # Cline CLI Changelog
 
-## 3.0.48
-
-- `cline history` now opens inside the existing TUI, with resume and delete actions, instead of rendering a second view in the same process
-- Connector threads (Slack, Discord, Telegram, Linear, Google Chat, WhatsApp) now recover when the session they were bound to is gone — the stale binding is dropped and the turn replays against a new session, instead of failing with "session not found" until `threads.json` is edited by hand
-- `cline --help` now reports the real default `--config` and `--data-dir` paths
-- The per-server `timeout` in `cline_mcp_settings.json` is now honored for `initialize`, `tools/list`, and `tools/call`, so slow MCP servers no longer fail against a hardcoded 5s limit (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Reasoning controls are now routed from the models.dev catalog across providers, with clamped budgets and correct per-provider encoding (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- OpenRouter now defaults to `anthropic/claude-sonnet-5` (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Fixed the China and international endpoint toggles being ignored for Qwen, Moonshot, and Z AI (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Legacy API keys are now migrated for every secret-backed provider (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Legacy OpenAI Compatible model-info overrides now survive into the seeded `models.json` (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Fixed auto-compaction state being rejected as stale, which added a redundant summarizer call on every turn past the compaction trigger (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Fixed checkpoint restores across session resumes (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Tool calls that pass line numbers as strings (`insert_line`, `read_files` bounds) are now accepted instead of erroring (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- A legacy single-file `.clinerules` no longer aborts the config scan (from SDK v0.0.67)
-- Plugins can now emit telemetry through `ctx.telemetry` (from SDK v0.0.67)
-
-## 3.0.47
-
-- Free Cline models are now supported end to end: free models show as "(free)", and hitting the free limit renders a dedicated card with the reset time (from SDK v0.0.66)
-- `/settings` general toggles (plan/act mode, tool auto-approve, compaction mode) now persist across restarts
-- Upgraded the TUI stack from opentui 0.1.102 to 0.4.3
-- Fixed a grey panel left behind on screen after closing a dialog (model picker, help, command palette) — a leftover from the opentui upgrade
-- Fixed a React duplicate-key warning when `read_files` listed the same path more than once
-- Aborting a task no longer risks killing the shared hub daemon
-- Connector status delivery failures are no longer fatal to the turn
-- Agentic compaction is now the default context-compaction strategy, with fixes for it silently falling back to basic compaction and for tool-heavy transcripts that could never find a cut point (from SDK v0.0.66)
-- Editor edits preserve a file's existing line endings, fixing failed exact-match edits on CRLF files (from SDK v0.0.66)
-- Broader built-in provider coverage, now generated from models.dev (from SDK v0.0.66)
-- Updated the bundled model catalog (from SDK v0.0.66)
-
-## 3.0.46
-
-- Fixed out-of-credits detection so the CLI reliably recognizes the Cline API's real `insufficient_credits` (402) error and shows the "add credits" card instead of a generic error
-
-## 3.0.45
-
-- Smaller install: the Claude Code and Codex providers are now optional and loaded on demand, cutting `npm i -g cline` from ~640MB to ~285MB (from SDK v0.0.65)
-- Kimi K3 is now available as a ClinePass model (from SDK v0.0.65)
-- Runs now retry once after refreshing expired OAuth credentials (from SDK v0.0.65)
-- Team runs: the spawn tool is no longer exposed to teammates, and errored teammate runs now report as failed instead of completed (from SDK v0.0.65)
-- Hub status output now includes version numbers
-- Updated the bundled model catalog (from SDK v0.0.65)
-
-## 3.0.44
-
-- Improved max output token handling across providers (gateway routing, OpenAI vendor, and reasoning models) (from SDK v0.0.64)
-- Frontmatter and configuration files that start with a UTF-8 byte order mark (e.g. saved by Windows editors) now parse correctly (from SDK v0.0.64)
-
-## 3.0.43
-
-- The CLI now automatically trusts your operating system's certificate store, so it works behind corporate proxies and TLS-inspecting firewalls without manually setting `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` (fixes "unable to get local issuer certificate" errors, including Windows intermediate CA stores)
-
-## 3.0.42
-
-- Fixed Ollama native API routing so context window and timeout settings work again
-
-## 3.0.41
-
-- Compaction now shows progress status in the TUI
-- Model IDs are now suggested from OpenAI-compatible endpoints when configuring a provider
-- Workspace git info (branch/remote) is now persisted and refreshed across sessions
-- Compaction no longer runs during an active turn
-- Fixed a crash when the terminal title was updated during TUI teardown
-- The API key fallback hint is now highlighted for better visibility
-- Benign git states are no longer reported as workspace initialization errors
-
 ## 3.0.40
 
 - Added a manual API key escape hatch for Cline OAuth providers, so you can enter a key by hand from settings

-## Certificate trust
-
-The CLI automatically trusts your operating system's certificate store, so it
-works behind corporate TLS-inspecting proxies and with self-signed/internal
-endpoints without any setup. On launch the `cline` wrapper harvests the OS trust
-anchors and writes them to `~/.cline/cli-node-extra-ca-certs.pem`, then points
-the runtime's `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` at that bundle. The file is regenerated when
-it changes and is safe to delete (it is rebuilt on the next run).
-
-If you set `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` yourself, your certificates are **merged** into
-that bundle alongside the system store rather than replacing it. Run with
-`CLINE_DEBUG=1` to see how many OS and user CAs were loaded and where the bundle
-was written.
