  • Cline SDK bumped to 0.0.23 with LiteLLM private model support and loop detection

New

  • Automatic context overflow recovery — When conversation history exceeds the model's context window, Cline compacts old messages and retries instead of failing outright.
  • Immediate credit limit errors — 402 and insufficient balance errors now surface directly without unnecessary retries or confusing system messages.
  • Settings dialog improvements — Added report issue and feature request links for faster feedback.
  • Browser notification icon — Cline icon now appears in browser notifications for better visual clarity.

Under the Hood

  • Cline SDK 0.0.23 — LiteLLM private model support, provider-specific setting configs, built-in loop detection as an agent policy, provider ID normalization for model resolution, and OAuth token refresh fix for spawned agents.
