Cline, a VS Code extension used by 11 million developers, now has a standalone desktop app that lets you run multiple AI agents in parallel, choose from 300+ models, and automate recurring tasks. You can also import conversations from Claude Code or other agents and continue them with cheaper open-weight models.
- Run parallel agents simultaneously with scheduled cron job automations for recurring work like nightly repo checks or weekly documentation updates.
- Switch between 300+ models across 50+ providers, or use local models—you can even mix different models for planning versus execution.
- Import tasks and conversations from Claude Code, Codex, or other agents to continue work without starting over, useful when hitting subscription limits.
- The app extends beyond coding to research, document review, reporting, and other non-code work through plugins, MCP servers, and skills.
Tau is a command-line AI agent that handles coding tasks like explaining repos, writing tests, and fixing errors. It's designed as a teaching project—clean, modular code that shows how to build a coding agent without the complexity of production systems.
- The architecture splits into three layers (tau_ai for model translation, tau_agent for the reusable brain, tau_coding for the app wrapper), making each part readable and independent
- It works with multiple model providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, local models) through a provider-neutral event system, so you can swap backends without changing the core
- Sessions persist as append-only JSONL files with branching and compaction support, letting you resume work and inspect the full conversation history
