Open-source coding agent for IDE, terminal, and automated development workflows.
What is Cline?
Cline is an open-source coding agent that operates across an IDE, terminal, and SDK. It is aimed at developers who want an agent to inspect a codebase, make coordinated changes, run commands, and participate in recurring automation.
