Cline runs long tool-calling loops, so pick a model that is strong at agentic work:

Notes

  • Tool calling is required. Cline drives edits through function calls; every model listed above supports them.
  • Context window is not auto-detected. Our /models endpoint returns IDs only, so Cline cannot infer limits. If you leave the default, Cline may truncate context earlier than necessary or overrun the model.
  • Costs. Cline’s cost estimate uses the pricing you enter in its settings, not Lyceum’s billing. Your real usage is in the dashboard.
