## 项目历史与用法

Cline is an open source AI coding agent for IDE and terminal workflows. The official repository describes Cline as a coding agent in the IDE and terminal and organizes the project around a shared SDK, CLI, VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, Kanban surface, and documentation.

### 项目历史

The GitHub repository was created in 2024 and the changelog records an initial 0.0.6 release followed by rapid VS Code extension iteration. Version 2.0 renamed the project to Cline and described it as an assistant that can use the CLI and editor; later releases added browser/computer-use style capabilities, model-provider breadth, MCP support, and shared agent infrastructure.

### 采用历史

Cline's adoption path differs from older Unix tools: it grew through editor marketplaces, npm, community channels, and then Homebrew for the CLI. The official README links the VS Code Marketplace, JetBrains Marketplace, npm installation for the CLI and SDK, Discord, Reddit, and documentation, while the batch input lists Homebrew as the package-manager distribution for this formula.

### 使用方式

The CLI can run interactively, in one-shot mode, as JSON output, yolo/headless mode, or background hub mode. Official docs and README examples cover editing code across a project, running shell commands, Plan/Act mode, checkpoints, MCP servers, providers such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, OpenRouter, Bedrock, Vertex, and OpenAI-compatible APIs, plus scheduled and connector-driven agents.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Cline is package-nerd significant because it shows an AI coding agent becoming a normal command-line package rather than only an editor extension. Its CLI packaging brings credentials, provider selection, MCP servers, plugins, schedules, and headless automation into shell workflows where package managers can install and update the agent like other developer tools.
