Cline + VS Code
by Community · open-source · Last verified 2026-03-17
Cline (formerly Claude Dev) is an open-source VS Code extension that gives an AI agent direct access to the editor's file system, terminal, and browser, enabling multi-step agentic workflows inside the IDE. It supports any OpenAI-compatible API including Claude, GPT-4, and local models, with a human-in-the-loop approval step for each file write and shell command.
