ClinePass

A low-cost monthly subscription that offers 2-5x the usage on popular open coding models compared to standard API rate.

ClinePass is a low-cost monthly subscription — $9.99/month — that offers 2-5x the usage on popular open coding models compared to standard API rate.

It’s completely optional. You don’t need ClinePass to use Cline, and you can always use any other provider alongside it.

Subscribe to ClinePass

Get started for $9.99/month and unlock 2-5x the usage on popular open coding models compared to standard API rate.

How it works

ClinePass is a separate provider in Cline. After subscribing, select ClinePass wherever you configure your provider.

• IDE Extension: Go to IDE extension settings, set API Provider to ClinePass, and sign in.

• CLI: Go to /settings and select ClinePass as your provider.

Why ClinePass

Open models have gotten really good. They now reach performance close to proprietary models for coding tasks, and because many providers can serve them competitively, they’re usually far cheaper.

However, getting reliable access can be difficult. Providers vary in quality and availability, and standard rate limits can throttle heavy agentic workflows that read files, run commands, and iterate across many turns.

ClinePass solves this by:

• Curating a select group of open models tested and benchmarked for coding agent use
• Offering 2-5x the usage on popular open coding models compared to standard API rate, so you can run long, complex agent tasks without interruption
• Providing stable access through Cline’s infrastructure

ClinePass is a separate provider from Cline (usage-billing). You can use both independently — subscribe to ClinePass for 2-5x the usage on popular open coding models compared to standard API rate, or use Cline (usage-billing) for pay-as-you-go access.

Models

ClinePass includes the following models, tested and benchmarked for coding agent use:

Model	Model ID
GLM-5.2	cline-pass/glm-5.2
Kimi K3	cline-pass/kimi-k3
Kimi K2.7 Code	cline-pass/kimi-k2.7-code
Kimi K2.6	cline-pass/kimi-k2.6
DeepSeek V4 Pro	cline-pass/deepseek-v4-pro
DeepSeek V4 Flash	cline-pass/deepseek-v4-flash

MiniMax M3	cline-pass/minimax-m3
Qwen3.7 Max	cline-pass/qwen3.7-max
Qwen3.7 Plus	cline-pass/qwen3.7-plus

Using ClinePass outside of Cline

You can use ClinePass models from your own scripts, apps, or automation through the Cline API. The API uses the same OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions format as the rest of Cline’s API.

To get started, create an API key from Settings > API Keys in app.cline.bot. For the complete walkthrough, see the Cline API Getting Started guide.

Use the full ClinePass model slug in the model field:

export CLINE_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"

curl -X POST https://api.cline.bot/api/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLINE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "cline-pass/qwen3.7-max",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "Write a TypeScript function that validates an email address."}
    ],
    "stream": false
  }'

Reference pricing

ClinePass is a flat monthly subscription, so you are not charged the individual API prices below. These reference prices show the underlying per-1M-token rates for each model and can help you understand how usage is measured against your ClinePass quota (2-5x quota compares to paying standard api rate).
