Full Release Notes
- Support for free Cline models (`cline-free`): free models are labeled "(free)", priced at zero, and hitting the free tier now raises a dedicated limit error that includes the reset time - Agentic compaction is now the default context-compaction strategy - Fixed agentic compaction silently falling back to basic compaction on OpenAI Compatible providers (the summarizer built its handler without a base URL and hit api.openai.com), and manual compaction budgeting against a 64k fallback instead of the model's real context window - Fixed agentic compaction never finding a cut point in tool-heavy transcripts, which produced endless "auto-compaction skipped" while context kept growing — assistant messages are now valid cut boundaries - Connector sessions now persist and automatically reconnect after a daemon or hub restart - Plan/act mode, tool auto-approve, and compaction mode are now persisted in global settings, with cross-process-safe writes so two hosts no longer clobber each other's changes - The built-in provider list is now generated from models.dev, broadening out-of-the-box provider coverage - The editor tool preserves a file's existing line endings — CRLF files no longer end up with mixed endings and failing exact-match edits - SAP AI Core now sets the metering header and uses the fetch adapter - Headless scheduled routines default to auto-approve and no longer ask questions no one can answer - Telemetry: task lifecycle events, auth event metadata and request IDs, and correct host identity (`host_plugin_version`, platform) on SDK-pipeline events - Removed the never-invoked `onRetryAttempt` callback from `ApiHandlerOptions` and provider config - `@cline/ui`: host-safe theme contract and Markdown exports - Updated the bundled model catalog **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/sdk/sdk/v0.0.65...sdk/sdk/v0.0.66
