Cline v3.26.6: Three Ways to Code for Free

Cline v3.26.6 introduces three significant AI-powered coding capabilities, catering to various user preferences for speed, privacy, and usage limits. The update features the xAI's Grok Code Fast model, offering rapid response times for agentic coding workflows without usage caps during its launch period. Users seeking privacy can now utilize powerful local models that function entirely offline, ensuring that no code leaves their machine. Additionally, the Qwen Code provider offers 2,000 free requests per day through a simple OAuth-based setup, allowing access to specialized coding models like qwen3-coder-plus. The release also includes improvements such as better context window management for GPT-5 models and adaptive styling for VS Code themes.
