GitHub Release: cline/cline vsdk/sdk/v0.0.93 (13.10.2026)

• Plugins load in-process through one registry per process instead of a node/bun subprocess, so the compiled CLI and its hub no longer need a runtime on PATH, and plugins can use the Bun global under the Bun-built hub. CLINE_PLUGIN_MODE=sandbox keeps the subprocess sandbox. The registry wraps import, setup, hooks, tools and commands with timeouts and error capture, and tracks each plugin's state (loading/ready/degraded/failed/disabled) with its last error. A failing plugin no longer silently drops its tools: session.create accepts a plugins policy and returns pluginIssues, later failures reach affected sessions as status notices, the hub answers plugins.list/plugins.status/plugins.reload and broadcasts plugin.status_changed, and the daemon marks a plugin failed instead of shutting down when an uncaught error comes from it. Each session gets its own copy of every plugin module, so plugins that keep per-session state at module level keep working


• Turning reasoning off now works on every provider, not just a fixed list. Models whose catalog entry has no off option are sent nothing and keep their default, and models without a reasoning capability are skipped. Gemini and Vertex send exact thinkingBudget values only to models that advertise a budget; level-only Gemini models get a thinking level instead (they rejected thinkingBudget). A request never carries both the portable reasoning option and a native provider control (effort, thinking, thinkingConfig, …); the native one wins


• The cline provider's default model is the first entry of the Cline recommended-models list, falling back to anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5. CLINE_DEFAULT_MODEL_ID moves from Claude Sonnet 5 to Claude Sonnet 5.5, and the openrouter provider default is now anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5 too


• estimateRequestInputTokens and createTokenEstimator no longer bill base64 image payloads at the text rate. A ~90 KB screenshot counted as ~30k tokens, so a few images triggered auto compaction long before the transcript was near budget. Each image now adds a flat ESTIMATED_TOKENS_PER_IMAGE (1600). New createImageAwareReplacer export in @cline/shared


• Auto compaction uses the resolved model's context window. When the discovered catalog entry had no limit but the selected-model override did, compaction was handed the bare catalog entry and ran against the wrong budget


• Scheduled runs: queued runs are claimed correctly under bun:sqlite, which bound the store's named parameters as NULL so the desktop hub never claimed a queued run and it stayed pending with no error. Runs whose agent turn ends with a provider error (such as a retired model id) are now recorded as failed with the error message instead of succeeding silently, and the run report keeps usage and tool calls. Queued cron occurrences superseded by a newer occurrence of the same schedule are cancelled, so a backlog no longer replays every missed slot back to back


• Rule files that are symlinks are now loaded from config directories instead of skipped. Edits to a link's target are picked up on the next refresh or new session


• resolveSkillsConfigSearchPaths scans .claude/skills, so skills authored for Claude Code are visible to Cline


• The editor tool advertises old_text as a plain string. When the schema allowed null, some models sent null instead of the replacement text. Null is still accepted at runtime and treated as omitted


• Composio connectors: signed-in sessions register Composio's meta tools (search, manage connections, wait for connections, multi-execute), so the agent can find connector tools across toolkits, hand the user a Connect Link for an app that is not connected yet, and run what it found. Connector tools are discovered through meta search; saved desktop connection state no longer supplies model tools. Hosts can supply their own authentication through the new connectorsRequest option (ConnectorsRequest exported from @cline/core), which is also forwarded to scheduled sessions. resolveComposioToolsStatePath is renamed to resolveComposioConnectionStatePath


• The Cline cloud sign-in helpers in @cline/core accept an AbortSignal, so hosts can cancel a pending sign-in while it is polling


• Cloud session refreshes update open sessions with titles renamed on the web, and keep renames made locally while a refresh is in flight


• Refreshed the model catalog (6,572 → 6,862 models). Adds the AI/ML API, LowRouter, and Prime Inference providers. models.dev no longer lists v0, so the v0 provider ships with only its default model, v0-1.5-md. OpenCode Go's base URL moves from https://opencode.ai/zen/go/v1 to https://opencode.ai/inference/go/v1. The Cline free list adds Step 5 Preview. Default models change for 302.AI, CrossModel, Cortecs, DigitalOcean, NEAR AI Cloud, and Ofox (Claude Haiku 5.5), DevPass (LLM Gateway), LLM Gateway, and Meta (Muse Wonder 1.0), Aixy (GPT-6.1 Sol), CloudFerro Sherlock and Moark (GLM 5.3), Ambient, NanoGPT, Neuralwatt, and Novita AI
