Adopt multi-session visibility and free-tier models in Cline Desktop

Use the system tray, favorites, paginated history, and subagent run views to manage concurrent agent work, and try free Cline models with clear limit messaging before paid usage.

Why this loop

Desktop v0.0.7 surfaces how many agent sessions are running via the system tray, paginates history in ten-session pages, lets you favorite sessions, and orders them by most recent activity with consistent status dots. Subagent and teammate runs now appear with status and results, so parallel work is inspectable in-app. Free Cline models are labeled “(free)” and show reset time at the free-tier limit. Endpoint toggle fixes for Qwen, Moonshot, Z AI, and MiniMax plus a refreshed model catalog make provider choice more reliable. Chat polish (tool icons, thinking time, stable message actions) reduces friction when reviewing long sessions.

Proposed actions

  1. Pin Cline Desktop and use the system tray icon to monitor app status and active agent session count while you work elsewhere
  2. Favorite high-value sessions and rely on most-recent-activity ordering plus paginated history to resume work without scrolling the full list
  3. Open parent sessions to review subagent and teammate run status and results instead of tracking those runs only in chat logs
  4. Select free Cline models labeled “(free)” for exploratory tasks and note the in-app reset time when you hit the free-tier limit
  5. If you use Qwen, Moonshot, Z AI, or MiniMax, re-check China/international endpoint toggles and the refreshed model catalog so routing matches your region

You are helping me adopt a real coding-assistant change. Work only from the facts below. Do not invent features.

## Context
Assistant: Cline
Proposal: Adopt multi-session visibility and free-tier models in Cline Desktop
Summary: Use the system tray, favorites, paginated history, and subagent run views to manage concurrent agent work, and try free Cline models with clear limit messaging before paid usage.

## Why it matters
Desktop v0.0.7 surfaces how many agent sessions are running via the system tray, paginates history in ten-session pages, lets you favorite sessions, and orders them by most recent activity with consistent status dots. Subagent and teammate runs now appear with status and results, so parallel work is inspectable in-app. Free Cline models are labeled “(free)” and show reset time at the free-tier limit. Endpoint toggle fixes for Qwen, Moonshot, Z AI, and MiniMax plus a refreshed model catalog make provider choice more reliable. Chat polish (tool icons, thinking time, stable message actions) reduces friction when reviewing long sessions.

## Suggested actions
1. Pin Cline Desktop and use the system tray icon to monitor app status and active agent session count while you work elsewhere
2. Favorite high-value sessions and rely on most-recent-activity ordering plus paginated history to resume work without scrolling the full list
3. Open parent sessions to review subagent and teammate run status and results instead of tracking those runs only in chat logs

## Your job
1. Restate the change in one sentence.
2. Propose a minimal plan for my repo (or a throwaway pilot).
3. Implement only what I approve; prefer small diffs and tests.
4. Call out risks (permissions, breaking APIs, cost).

Start by confirming you understood the proposal.

Verified excerpt — the source's own words
- New system tray icon showing app status and how many agent sessions are currently running.
- Session history is now paginated in ten-session pages, fetching older history only when you reach the end.
- You can favorite sessions, and sessions are now ordered by most recent activity with consistent status dot colors across views.
- Subagent and teammate runs from a session now show up in the app with their status and results.
- Chat polish: tool-specific icons on tool disclosures, elapsed thinking time and restyled reasoning sections, aligned timestamps, and message actions that no longer shift the layout while scrolling stays anchored to the conversation viewport.
- Free Cline models are now supported and labeled "(free)" in model pickers, with a clear message — including reset time — when you hit the free-tier limit.
- Fixed the China/international endpoint toggles for Qwen, Moonshot, Z AI, and MiniMax being ignored, which silently routed regional users to the wrong host.
- Fixed tool calls failing when a model emitted a line number as a string (e.g. `insert_line: "3"`), forcing the agent to waste a round trip retrying.
- Refreshed the bundled provider and model catalog.
