API Reference

ClineInstance

ClineInstance class for managing Cline Core processes.

Methods

• start(): Launches cline-host and cline-core.js processes, waits for instance lock
• stop(): Terminates the processes
• wait_for_instance(timeout=30): Waits for instance lock in database
• is_running(): Checks if processes are still running
• with_available_ports(cwd, config_path=None): Factory method for automatic port allocation

Supports context manager protocol for automatic cleanup.

Protocol Buffer Files

The library includes gRPC protocol buffer definitions and generated Python files for communicating with Cline's gRPC services. These files are located in src/cline/proto/ and include:

• Task management (task_pb2.py)
• State management (state_pb2.py)
• Common types (common_pb2.py)
• And more...

Protocol buffer files are automatically generated during the build process using uv build. The generated files are included in the package distribution but ignored in version control.

To manually regenerate these files during development:

uv run build.py
