|
|
The Cline SDK is an open source framework for building agentic applications, and is the same harness used in the Cline IDE extensions and CLI. It uses a plugin architecture that makes it easy to customize and comes with all the features you expect from agents like checkpoints, web fetch, MCPs, cron jobs, subagents, and more.
|
|
|
|
Use the Cline SDK to run agents from CI/CD pipelines, create automations for end-to-end workflows, or embed agents directly inside your products.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install @cline/sdk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`@cline/sdk` exports all SDK packages: `@cline/core` for the full agent harness, `@cline/agents` for the stateless agent loop, `@cline/llms` for control over the model gateway, and `@cline/shared` for common utilities.
|
|
|
|
Requires Node.js 22 or later.
|
|
|
|
## SDK Skill
|
|
|
|
If you use a coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cline, etc.), install the [Cline SDK skill](https://github.com/cline/sdk-skill) to give your agent context on the SDK's APIs and best practices to help you build with the Cline SDK.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx skills add cline/sdk-skill
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Prompt it to scaffold agents, create custom tools, wire up plugins, configure providers, and more.
|
|
|
|
## Your First Agent
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
import { Agent } from "@cline/sdk"
|
|
|
|
const agent = new Agent({
|
|
providerId: "anthropic",
|
|
modelId: "claude-sonnet-4-6",
|
|
apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY,
|
|
maxIterations: 1,
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
agent.subscribe((event) => {
|
|
if (event.type === "assistant-text-delta") {
|
|
process.stdout.write(event.text ?? "")
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
const result = await agent.run("Explain what an SDK is in two sentences.")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Here is a complete [quickstart example](https://github.com/cline/cline/tree/main/apps/examples/quickstart). Clone it and run `bun dev` to try it.
