Desktop v0.0.23
Agent Plugins are now discovered and run by the Hub, with plugin validation and automatic MCP server startup. The Hub update dialog no longer appears on every launch, sign-in now displays device confirmation codes, voice input errors navigate to settings instead of toasts, and fixes include scheduled-task report visibility and MCP server shutdown hangs.
- Agent Plugins are now discovered and run by the shared Hub. Packages under
~/.agents/pluginsare validated from theirplugin.json, their valid Agent Skills become available to the agent, and their stdio / Streamable HTTP / SSE MCP servers start automatically. Settings → Customize lists Agent Plugins separately from Cline Plugins, with each plugin's description, badge, and contributed tools, and enable/disable is Hub-managed per plugin. Workspace.agents/pluginsdirectories are intentionally ignored - The "Cline Hub was updated" dialog no longer appears on every launch and reconnect. The app no longer prompts about a Hub running the same core version it does — a desktop and CLI release cut from different commits bundle the same core but never share a build fingerprint, so anyone with both installed got a dialog whose "Update and restart" looped on "no app update available". The build-mismatch dialog now also waits until an app update is actually staged, and "Later" sticks across session switches, reloads, and relaunches instead of resurfacing every time. A Hub the app genuinely cannot talk to still warns every time
- Signing in now shows the device confirmation code in the app while you wait on the browser, so you can match it against the code the browser asks you to confirm — in onboarding, Account settings, and the provider list
- Voice input failures caused by provider setup — missing credentials, transcription config — now take you straight to voice settings instead of a toast you cannot act on. Genuine microphone permission failures still toast, with a clearer message
- Fixed the scheduled-task report vanishing when a finished run's step collapsed
- Fixed one wedged MCP server blocking the rest from shutting down, leaking their processes

CLI v3.0.71
Plugins now load inside the hub without requiring a separate JavaScript runtime, with improved error reporting and status tracking. Added thinking support in ACP mode, environment variable provider configuration, improved reasoning control across providers, and numerous fixes for scheduled runs, token estimation, and model catalog updates.
SDK v0.0.93
Plugin loading now happens in-process through a registry instead of subprocesses, eliminating runtime dependencies and enabling better plugin state tracking and error handling. Reasoning control now works across all providers, token estimation for images is improved, scheduled runs are fixed, and the model catalog expands to 6,862 models with updated provider defaults.
SDK Core v0.0.93
Release of @cline/core version 0.0.93 with core SDK updates and improvements.
