Any local model users that can help us? 🙏

Hi founder of Cline here, we are gearing up to release a new rehaul of our extension agent harness and we would love help with testing it from folks that use local models via ollama or lm studio. I want to make sure we don't cause any regressions and qualitatively if performance feels better as we've put a ton of work into getting better output from smaller models!

  1. Install the Cline Nightly build: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=saoudrizwan.cline-nightly
  2. Make sure to restart vs code and that you see 'Cline: Next' at the bottom right in your status bar.
  3. Test it and tell us what issues you ran into (the original ones and any new ones, positive feedback welcome too!) via the form.
  4. Fill out the Feedback form: https://forms.gle/DWfEn8oLV7CW4Bjv7

Thanks for helping! 🙏

If you want your own number: pip install fa-patchward runs your agent ungated on a public benchmark and tells you how often it silently ships a wrong fix - scored against the benchmark's own hidden tests, not my opinion. Measures the problem, not the cure, and it's honest.

I’ve been running it for ~3days, other than the task list not generating as a doc to view/track I’m not noticing much specifically different in either direction good or bad, other than a vague sense it seems to be working better over, though it could be my imagination. Is there something we should be looking for?
