What Cline actually is
Cline (formerly Claude Dev) is an autonomous coding agent that lives in a VS Code side panel. It reads your files, edits them, runs terminal commands, and can drive a browser — all with a human-in-the-loop approval gate so you see every diff before it lands.
Installing
Plan mode is chat-only — the agent can read but not write. Use it to negotiate the design first (“where should this live, which existing helper do we reuse”) and then switch to Act to execute. Skipping Plan on anything non-trivial is the most common way Cline users burn tokens on a first draft they have to throw away.
A first task
Medium-to-large features where you want an agent that can run the test suite, read the failure, and keep iterating — all while you review diffs visually in VS Code. The browser tool is genuinely useful for checking a running frontend without tab-switching.
Plan vs Act mode
If you live in JetBrains or Neovim, Cline is not for you — try Continue or Aider instead. It is also overkill for single-line tweaks where Copilot-style inline completion is faster. And watch the bill: running Claude Sonnet on a repo with a big context can cost more in one afternoon than a month of Copilot, so set a provider spend limit on day one.
