 # Roo-Cline
 
-A fork of Cline, an autonomous coding agent, tweaked for more speed and flexibility. It’s been mainly writing itself recently, with a light touch of human guidance here and there.

     - Create and edit files + monitor linter/compiler errors along the way, letting him proactively fix issues like missing imports and syntax errors on his own.
     - Execute commands directly in your terminal and monitor their output as he works, letting him e.g., react to dev server issues after editing a file.
     - For web development tasks, Cline can launch the site in a headless browser, click, type, scroll, and capture screenshots + console logs, allowing him to fix runtime errors and visual bugs.

-> Use the `CMD/CTRL + Shift + P` shortcut to open the command palette and type "Cline: Open In New Tab" to open the extension as a tab in your editor. This lets you use Cline side-by-side with your file explorer, and see how he changes your workspace more clearly.

 ### Use any API and Model
 
-Cline supports API providers like OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini, AWS Bedrock, Azure, and GCP Vertex. You can also configure any OpenAI compatible API, or use a local model through LM Studio/Ollama. If you're using OpenRouter, the extension fetches their latest model list, allowing you to use the newest models as soon as they're available. The extension also now supports Amazon Nova and Meta Llama (3, 3.1, and 3.2) models via AWS Bedrock.
