Comprehensive tutorials, guides, and resources to help you become proficient with AI coding agents.
Learn the fundamentals of AI-powered coding to make the most out of your development workflow
We put together 20 starter prompts for the Kanban sidebar chat. They create linked dependency chains, maximize parallel agent execution, and produce real, working code. Install with npm i -g cline.
Cline works best when your ask is specific. In this blog we review strategies to prompt Cline in an effective way.
Learn how System Prompt Rules guide coding style, security, and workflow ensuring consistency, safety, and alignment in every task.
Learn how System Prompt bridges intent and action with three pillars: Tools, System Info, and User Preferences.
Learn how System Prompt Advanced handles dev tasks: explore code, make diff edits, verify with commands, and test in the browser.
Learn how to choose the right LLM in Cline by understanding trade-offs in speed, cost, reasoning, and multimodality.
Learn how to interpret LLM benchmarks—coding, domain, and tool-use—to match scores with your development needs.
Learn to pick the best LLM in Cline by balancing speed, context, cost, and flexibility—matching models to your specific tasks
Explore how Cline’s model-agnostic design lets you route tasks via providers, aggregators, or local models—optimizing cost, speed & privacy.
An engineer at Cline told me he was vibe coding on a road trip from his phone. His Mac was at home running Cline agents; he was checking on them from the passenger seat. Here's the setup. What you need Your phone and your Mac both need Tailscale installed and signed in to the same tailnet. Tailscale is a free mesh VPN; once both devices are on it, your phone can reach your Mac's local services from anywhere. Step 1: Start Kanban on your Mac By default, Cline's Kanban board binds to 127.0.0
We built an arena where three AI coding agents fight to the death. Each agent runs on different hardware, a different inference stack, and a different economic model. They all receive the same task: write a bash script that kills your opponents, then execute it immediately. The last process standing wins. We call it the Thunderdome. A tmux session split into three panes, each running a Cline agent pointed at a different backend – all running OpenAI's gpt-oss at 120 billion parameters. All three

A premium car today contains over 100 million lines of code -- more than a fighter jet, more than Facebook's entire codebase. AI coding assistants promise to help close the productivity gap. But most get rejected before they reach a single developer's machine.
What if you could get plain-English explanations for every line of AI-generated code? Meet Cline's Explain Changes feature: your AI slop detector, code review accelerator, and sanity-preservation tool rolled into one.
