5 use cases

  • Fix failing tests automatically in a CI pipeline

    Run Cline headless in a pipeline so it runs tests and repairs failures without a person present.

    View prompt
    Use the cline/cline repo's headless CLI in <repo-path>. Run `cline "Run tests and fix any failures"` from the repo root, then report which tests failed, which files changed, and whether the test command passes afterward. Verify the result by rerunning the test command yourself before reporting success.

  • Review a branch diff for issues before merging

    Pipe a git diff into Cline and get a written review of the changes from the terminal.

    View prompt
    Use the cline/cline CLI in <repo-path> to review the diff between origin/main and <branch-name>. Run `git diff origin/main | cline "Review these changes for issues"` and return the list of issues Cline reports. Verify each reported issue by opening the cited line before treating it as real.

  • Plan a feature in VS Code and approve each edit

    Use Plan mode to map out a change, then Act mode to apply it with per-edit approval.

    View prompt
    Work in the cline/cline VS Code extension on the project at <project-path>. Ask Cline in Plan mode to outline how to add <feature-description>, then switch to Act mode and apply it. Report the files changed and confirm that each change appears as a reviewable diff.

  • Schedule a daily PR summary for a repository

    Set a cron schedule so Cline posts a recurring report on open pull requests without a terminal open.

    View prompt
    Use the cline/cline CLI to create a schedule in <repo-path> that runs every weekday at 9 AM and lists open pull requests with their review status. Run the `cline schedule create` command from the README with that workspace, then verify the schedule exists and report its next run time.

  • Chat with a coding agent from Telegram

    Connect a Telegram bot to Cline so you can message your agent from your phone.

    View prompt
    Connect the cline/cline CLI to Telegram using the bot token in the environment variable BOT_TOKEN. Run `cline connect telegram -k $BOT_TOKEN`, send a test message from <telegram-account>, and report the agent's reply. Verify that the reply comes from a session in the expected workspace.

How to use Cline

  1. Check you have what it needs: Node.js with npm available, since the README installs the CLI with npm; Access to an AI model provider that Cline supports, such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, OpenRouter, or a local model through Ollama or LM Studio; A git repository or project folder you want the agent to work in.
  2. Open cline/cline on GitHub and read the README and license.
  3. Install the CLI with npm i -g cline.
  4. Open a terminal in the root of the repository that has the failing tests.
  5. Run cline "Run tests and fix any failures".
  6. Review the file changes with git diff before committing.

These steps come from our top use case, Fix failing tests automatically in a CI pipeline, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
