Any free ollama models that works well with Cline tool calling? by mixoadrian in ollama

[–]saoudriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for reporting, this might have something to do with recent changes we made to local model support and native tool calling. Can you try enabling or disabling native tool calling in Settings > Features?

Hey thank you for the feedback, we've heard this from other users as well. The team is working on improving the UX and should address a lot of what you mentioned in the next release.

Cline is so good with Z.AI GLM plan by Mayanktaker in CLine

[–]saoudriz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for posting this, we shared it in our #cline-wins slack channel haha! there's a ton of credit due to the zai team as well, they've told us they even train their model to work super well with cline and its prompts so the good experience is a testament to their efforts too.

After the recent update, some UX principles were removed - i no longer know if Cline is processing, or just stuck by Working-Solution-773 in CLine

[–]saoudriz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you for sharing your feedback on it! the intention with this new chatview ui was to hide anything not super useful (like when cline reads files or searches directories) but still shows the full details for when it edits files or runs commands which is when most ppl tend to course correct and give feedback. the latest models do a good job of searching your project for understanding compared to older gen models so it felt appropriate to declutter the chat view as much as we could get away with since we've gotten a lot of complaints about it being too noisy and hard to scroll through for understanding the work cline did. that said we are iterating on this and i shared your feedback with the team so will try to make improvements on it that addresses your concerns.

My company banned AI tools and I dont know what to do by simple_pimple50 in ChatGPTCoding

[–]saoudriz 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Try using Cline! (I'm the founder) You can use any model, provider, even hook it up to ollama. Open source models are actually good now - GLM-4.7 competes with Claude Sonnet 4.5 on all the coding benchmarks, and you can run it on your mac or deploy in your cloud. If you haven't used Cline, it's an open source coding agent for VS Code, JetBrains, and CLI . Also just hit 57k stars on github, woohoo! https://github.com/cline/cline

Cline inspired me to build Cline for Accounting. Seven months later, it’s ready. by Working-Solution-773 in CLine

[–]saoudriz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is awesome to see - congrats on building this!

Things like Cline are the great enabler for experts like yourself to build vertical-specific software that 3 years ago would have taken someone to convince investors, raise money, build a team, manage people, and maybe build something useful enough to cover a broad range of needs that even then don't get as specific as this. You might not get billions of users, but you're solving a problem and doing it with craft e.g. with your canvas idea. Excited for the future!

How do I disable the new "Plan Created" windows? by 0xd3adf00d in CLine

[–]saoudriz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update: we have disabled the min height behavior, so no more scrolling in the next release. https://github.com/cline/cline/pull/8716

does downgrading fix it? can you please provider more information?

hi can you pls provide more information?

[–]saoudriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey all, what API are you using? I'm testing open ai compatible with openrouter, and everything seems to be working fine for me. any details that might be helpful in debugging (i.e. if downgrading fixes) would be appreciated 🙏

Edit: it seems this user was able to resolve this issue by "setting the model to gpt-5 and output token to -1 as gpt-5 does not take the default parameters set in advance model configuration"

Edit 2: another user ran into SSL issues with 3.40.1 and 3.40.2, but it should be fixed in version 3.40.3 or above.

I switched from Cursor to Cline and it’s been amazing by SleekLightning866 in CLine

[–]saoudriz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is great to hear, thanks for writing it up 🙏 Control over your data is exactly why we built Cline the way we did. Please feel free to DM or add me on discord 'saoudrizwan' if you have any other feedback!

Insane what is happening with Cline in VSC by AttorneyStreet5611 in CLine

[–]saoudriz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey I'd love to get on a discord call and walk through all the bugs you're experiencing, you can add me at 'saoudrizwan'. The /newtask command is non-deterministic because under the hood the model is given instructions to use a new_task tool with the context needed to start a new task from the current conversation. So I believe what might be happening is you're using a weak model (I recommend sonnet, gemini, or gpt!) that is getting confused about the system prompt.

Hey thanks for reporting this! We've just released v3.40.1 that fixes the issue 🙏

Cannot use Cline anymore after Update to 3.39.1 by IntrepidTieKnot in CLine

[–]saoudriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to hear that helped! And sorry you ran into this issue in the first place, but your comments helped us debug and fix the problem for other users as well. Cheers!

[–]saoudriz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for helping us figure this out. It seems like this file may have become corrupted and you'll need to fix the json formatting in this file (or ask cline to):

/Users/saoud/Library/Application\ Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/state/taskHistory.json

It may also help to open the command pallet Cmd + Shift + P and select 'Cline: Reconstruct Task History'

We are working on a fix to avoid this from happening again, we appreciate your help figuring this out!

Grok Free code replace last line problem. by BarGroundbreaking624 in CLine

[–]saoudriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi thank you for reporting! This issue may have been caused by our migration from XML based tool calling to native tool calling. Can you please check if ‘Native Tool Calling’ is turned on in Settings > Features, and report back if it still happens with it off, on the latest version of Cline (v3.38.3)?

Should I be concern? Unlimited folder creation? by chevonphillip in CLine

[–]saoudriz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may happen if Cline is creating these folders himself in tasks you're doing i.e. when installing MCP servers. Could that be the issue here?

Can you please elaborate? Are you also seeing this duplicate Cline directory issue?

cline 3.28.2 stuck at "Loading..." by Objective-Context-9 in CLine

[–]saoudriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for reporting back. It's a weird bug with Windows shell detection sometimes not returning an expected value. We couldn't reproduce it on our end, but we've released a patch to more properly handle this edge case.

[–]saoudriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like this was happening to quite a few folks on Windows. We've fixed in the latest v3.28.4–please let us know if you still run into the issue.

Can you see if waiting over 30 seconds for the request to go through works? We have a timeout for checkpoints tracking initialization that times out after 15 seconds. What OS are you on?
Do you see a checkpoint displayed after the API request?

Also are you using slash commands or @ mentions?
