# Cline CLI 3.0.45: global install drops 640MB → 285MB, Kimi K3 on ClinePass

> The Claude Code and Codex providers are now optional and loaded on demand, cutting `npm i -g cline` from ~640MB to ~285MB. Kimi K3 is available as a ClinePass model, and team runs tighten up: teammates no longer get the spawn tool, and errored teammate runs report as failed rather than completed.
