Cline 4.1.7

Original release notes

Added

  • Restore the "View Changes" button on completion rows, backed by SDK checkpoints, so you can review everything a task touched from the completion card.
  • Bring back a copy button on turn-final response rows.
  • Support pre-registered OAuth clients for remote MCP servers, for setups where dynamic client registration isn't available.

Changed

  • Fade the "View Changes" button until changes since the last message are confirmed, and hide it entirely when there is nothing to show.
  • Centralize plugin settings and contributions, with host-aware snapshots and atomic plugin toggles.
  • Carry execution context in scheduled run reports - readable headers, schedule metadata, durations, and lifecycle error details.

Fixed

  • Preserve prompts queued during a turn when that turn is interrupted: they survive aborts, are drained after a turn aborts itself, and the stop is surfaced instead of the queue being silently dropped.
  • Keep session context durable across aborts and hub restarts, so an interrupted session resumes with the state it had.
  • Settle the turn phase when a mode switch aborts a running turn.
  • Report queued-turn failures as run.failed instead of letting them complete silently.
  • Keep a hung MCP server from taking down session creation, and give stdio servers that were never configured a 30-second initialize budget instead of blocking indefinitely.
  • Surface OAuth authorization for SSE MCP servers on a 401 instead of failing outright.
  • Route LiteLLM through Chat Completions instead of the Responses API, fixing requests against LiteLLM proxies.
  • Retry network interruptions that happen mid-stream but before any model output, instead of failing the turn.
  • Use the configured fetch for Vertex ADC token refreshes, so they work behind proxies and custom transports.
  • Include files that were untracked when a snapshot was taken in checkpoint diffs, and pick up checkpoints when git is initialized part-way through a session.
  • Fall back to the session cwd or Desktop for @-mention file search in empty windows.
  • Never run a foreign compiled plugin-sandbox bootstrap for a source host.
