ClinePass
Launched this week
ClinePass gives Cline users one $9.99/month subscription for top open-weight coding models like GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek, and more. Use powerful models inside Cline with 2–5x standard API rate limits, without juggling provider accounts, API keys, billing pages, or model availability. Built for developers who want Cline’s agentic coding workflow with a simpler, faster open-model stack.
Free Options

the consolidation play here is underrated - managing separate DeepSeek, GLM, and Kimi API keys, rate limits, and billing pages is friction that burns time at exactly the wrong moment (middle of a coding session). $9.99 to have one thing that just works is a clean value prop. curious whether there's any intelligent routing under the hood - like if DeepSeek hits capacity does it silently fall back to GLM, or does the user explicitly choose which model runs?
Cline
@galdayan "the consolidation play here is underrated" exactly!
we don't silently fall back to any model. Users choose their own model and we respect the choices.

I love cline! used it for a year now! Is this new subscription you can eat tokens? or is it pay as you go? Its not fully clear from the description.
Cline
Thank you @conduit_design really appreciate you using Cline for so long.
ClinePass is a subscription, not pay-as-you-go. You pay a fixed monthly price and get access to some of the best open-weight models inside Cline.

@etisha_garg Thanks for your reply. What do you mean access? Free token access? Or access to models only available in cline, but that I have to pay for per token on top of the subscription?
Cline
@etisha_garg @conduit_design We provide you generous all-you-can-eat quota via the plan (2-5x discount vs. standard api rates). Once you hit the quota limit, you can switch back to usage based billing to do pay as you go on api rates.

@etisha_garg @huang_renee 2-5x? 😅 how is that competative? when claude code max plan gives you 20 times the usage capacity?
The data path is what I'd want pinned down before routing my agent stack through this — when ClinePass proxies my prompts and codebase context to GLM/Kimi/DeepSeek, is it pass-through with zero retention, or do you log requests for benchmarking and abuse handling? And are you hosting these open weights on your own infra or reselling third-party inference, since that decides where my code actually lands and what the latency floor looks like.

The curated-and-benchmarked-for-agentic-coding angle is what stands out to me here, more than the flat price. New open models drop constantly, so how fast does a model typically go from release to being added to the pool once it clears your benchmarks? Wondering how a GLM 5.2 or a fresh Kimi release makes it in.
Cline
@zain_sheikh the team tries really hard to keep Cline as the best harness for open weights model!
The open-weights angle here is underrated - when you're working on anything where you can't send your code to an external API, being able to run a capable model locally through Cline changes everything. Curious how the performance compares to the hosted models for actual coding tasks - do the open-weights models hold up on complex refactors or is there still a noticeable gap?
Cline
@omri_ben_shoham1 it's getting really good now, especially as some models making a breakthrough like GLM5.2
Open-weights in Cline is interesting for the same reason local tools keep coming back: cost control and privacy both matter once agents become daily infrastructure. The practical test is whether teams can swap models without breaking their workflow.
Cline
@krekeltronics exactly!
the bring-your-own open-weights angle is the right bet — not being locked to one provider's pricing or privacy terms is underrated. how's GLM/Kimi holding up vs frontier models on the harder agentic tasks?
Cline
@sabber_ahamed it's getting really good now! Try it out with Cline yourself and let us know
