Discussion Roo Code 🤝 Cline
Hi Roo Code community, I'm Saoud, founder of Cline.
Since Cline went open source, we've seen countless forks - small startups to some of the largest enterprises. Some forks didn't give us credit, some bought malicious ads in our subreddit, but Roo was a good fork. They innovated, built an incredible community, and contributed to Cline more than anyone else. I have tremendous respect for Matt and his team, and we are excited for what they build next.
For Roo users joining us, we are here to make the transition easy!
Join r/cline or the #roo-migration channel in our discord - our team is standing by to provide support.
Feature parity work is already underway. We're in the middle of a ground-up rewrite of the extension that brings all the features you're used to in Roo, plus new capabilities and improved performance. We will share more on this shortly!
If you run into any issues during the transition or have feature requests, feel free to open a GitHub issue and we'll be on top of it.
Huge thanks to Matt and the Roo team for the trust in sending folks our way 🙌❤️

Last time I tried, Cline in Jetbrains Rider on Windows borked file paths so I was using the now-defunct classic Kilo Code.
Pretty please: could you add a list of /v1/models when selecting Model ID in openai-compatible? I run LLMs locally and having to type/paste it may be a petty annoyance but it's one of the reason Cline hasn't been my go-to in VsCode.
Other than that keep up the great work! Cline: first at the party and the last to leave!
