- Support for free Cline models (
cline-free): free models are labeled "(free)", priced at zero, and hitting the free tier now raises a dedicated limit error that includes the reset time - Agentic compaction is now the default context-compaction strategy
- Fixed agentic compaction silently falling back to basic compaction on OpenAI Compatible providers (the summarizer built its handler without a base URL and hit api.openai.com), and manual compaction budgeting against a 64k fallback instead of the model's real context window
- Fixed agentic compaction never finding a cut point in tool-heavy transcripts, which produced endless "auto-compaction skipped" while context kept growing — assistant messages are now valid cut boundaries
- Connector sessions now persist and automatically reconnect after a daemon or hub restart
- Plan/act mode, tool auto-approve, and compaction mode are now persisted in global settings, with cross-process-safe writes so two hosts no longer clobber each other's changes
- The built-in provider list is now generated from models.dev, broadening out-of-the-box provider coverage
- The editor tool preserves a file's existing line endings — CRLF files no longer end up with mixed endings and failing exact-match edits
- SAP AI Core now sets the metering header and uses the fetch adapter
- Headless scheduled routines default to auto-approve and no longer ask questions no one can answer
- Telemetry: task lifecycle events, auth event metadata and request IDs, and correct host identity (
host_plugin_version, platform) on SDK-pipeline events - Removed the never-invoked
onRetryAttemptcallback fromApiHandlerOptionsand provider config @cline/ui: host-safe theme contract and Markdown exports- Updated the bundled model catalog
