Cline CLI 3.0.50: TUI themes, enforced plan mode, provider-wide retry fixes
Adds selectable TUI color themes and inherits SDK v0.0.70's behavior changes: plan mode now rejects file-editing shell commands outright rather than relying on prompting, and context-overflow and empty-response failures are recovered instead of surfacing as errors. If you relied on plan mode running mutating commands, that path is now blocked.

/themepicker with live preview; themes selectable from the command palette or/settings, overridable at startup viaCLINE_THEME- Built-in themes: Auto (default, terminal-adaptive), Cline Dark/Light, Tokyo Night, Gruvbox Dark, Nord, Dracula, Catppuccin Mocha, One Dark, Solarized Dark/Light
- Plan mode hard-blocks file manipulation, in-place editors (
sed -i,perl -i), file redirection, mutating git subcommands, package installs, and nested command strings (sh -c,eval,sudo); read-onlyrun_commandsstill works, Windows and PowerShell included - Context exhaustion force-compacts and retries once; unrecoverable cases explain why
- Empty model responses retried on every provider, not just Ollama (previously hard-failed on OpenRouter, Cline, OpenAI-compatible)
- Claude 4.6+ and 5.x no longer rejected with "thinking.type.enabled is not supported" from the offline catalog or hand-typed ids
- Bedrock prompt caching fixed (reads/writes were always 0); foundation models routed through geo inference profiles
- Reasoning models on OpenAI-compatible endpoints get
max_completion_tokens; image content substituted for models without image support - Git branch under the prompt tracks external branch switches
- Telegram slash commands reach the connector command host; connector launch races fixed, connector tools on by default
- Auto-approval settings honored over ACP
- Model layer upgraded to AI SDK 7, Ollama on the native provider; catalog adds Infomaniak and SCX.ai
