Cline Files

• Auto-updates no longer install while a CLI is attached to the Hub. The update is recorded at startup and installed on exit, once the Hub confirms nothing else is attached, so a background update can no longer swap the package out from under a live session and kill it with Hub connection closed (code=1006). cline update still installs immediately and now tells you the update applies on next start
• Added protections for an update landing under CLI 3.0.54 and earlier, whose updater restarts the Hub mid-session and then rejects every replacement, bricking a running session. The newly installed package defuses that path during install instead of leaving it to fire
• Fixed two Cline installations on different builds shutting each other's Hub daemon down in a loop, which killed every live session with an abnormal socket close. Build identity is now compared through a total order, so at most one side of a pair can ever decide to retire the other (from SDK v0.0.75)
• A newer build no longer replaces a Hub that is still serving sessions — it attaches to it and the swap happens on a later launch, instead of the sessions dying mid-handshake (from SDK v0.0.75)
• Removed the "outdated Hub" notice. It reported a state you cannot act on, and the toast was capped narrower than the message, so it rendered cut off before the reassuring half of the sentence at every terminal width. The prompt for a genuine build mismatch, where there is something to do, is unchanged
• Streaming assistant markdown no longer flashes back to raw text. Settled headings, links, and code stay rendered as new chunks arrive instead of the whole message being rebuilt and re-highlighted on every chunk, which also stops the transcript from jumping vertically mid-stream
• Web search calls and their results from models that run search natively now render in the transcript (from SDK v0.0.75)
• Idle plugin sandbox processes are now reclaimed instead of lingering for the life of the session (from SDK v0.0.75)
• cline doctor fix now reports honestly: processes that survived a kill are separated from ones that appeared while the fix ran, a live parent respawning a daemon is named, and a startup lock held by a running process is reported as held rather than leaked (from SDK v0.0.75)
• Refreshed the model catalog, which adds Crusoe as a provider and updates model lists and per-provider default models across the board (from SDK v0.0.75)
