Open-source autonomous coding agent for IDE and terminal.
Executes complex coding tasks by reading project files, writing code, and running terminal commands autonomously. Provides a visual interface for users to approve every file edit and command, ensuring safety and transparency. Supports multi-file refactoring, linter error fixing, and real-time reaction to terminal output like build or runtime errors. Integrates with any major AI provider, including Claude, GPT, Gemini, and local models via Ollama or LM Studio.
Autonomous agent loop handles multi-step tasks that go beyond simple autocomplete, saving significant development time. Human-in-the-loop approval mechanism ensures developers remain in control of sensitive changes and command execution. Model-agnostic design allows users to switch between local and cloud-based models based on cost, privacy, and reasoning needs. Extensive integration support via MCP (Model Context Protocol) allows the agent to interact with databases, APIs, and custom tools.

Cline is an open-source, agentic AI coding assistant that operates directly within your IDE and terminal. It can read and edit files, execute terminal commands, use the browser, and manage project tasks through natural conversation. By providing a human-in-the-loop GUI, it allows developers to maintain control while leveraging autonomous agents to handle complex coding, refactoring, and testing workflows.
Originally launched in 2024 as a VS Code extension, Cline evolved into a multi-surface agentic runtime to solve the friction of fragmented AI coding workflows. By 2026, the team extracted its core engine into an open-source TypeScript SDK, allowing the agent to function seamlessly across IDEs, terminals, and headless environments, supported by Cline Bot Inc.
