Free Stealth Model "code-supernova" Now Available in Cline
We're launching a new stealth model in Cline today: code-supernova. It's free, it's built for agentic coding, and it's available now through the Cline provider.
Update: as of October 27, 2025, code-supernova is no longer in Cline as the stealth period has closed.
Here's what you need to know:
200k context window; plenty for agentic coding tasks
Multimodal support; accepts image inputs like screenshots and diagrams, same as other frontier models
Built for agentic coding; trained specifically to excel at the iterative, tool-heavy workflows that define Cline
Completely free during alpha; no usage limits, no throttling, just free access while it's being refined
The lab we're working with describes the model as "a versatile agentic coding model that supports image inputs," and that's exactly what it is. Drop in screenshots when debugging UI issues, share architecture diagrams when building systems, or just stick to text. It handles the standard Cline agentic loop: reading files, executing commands, making edits, all the usual.
Getting started
Access code-supernova through the Cline provider:
- Open Cline settings
- Select the Cline provider
- Choose
cline:cline/code-supernova - Start coding
During this alpha period, the lab who is distributing the model is gathering feedback on how it performs in real-world coding tasks. Your usage of the model will improve it's long-term performance.
Happy coding this weekend :)
