Native ClineBot / ClinePass Provider Companion for DeepSeek Harness
0.6.24 hardens the source gate, updater environment, symlink-safe data paths and prototype-safe telemetry. It keeps automatic model/free/dated catalog backfill, DSH 0.2.1-rc.4, model-scoped credit cooldowns and 402/413 errors. Chat runs on the native ctx.llm adapter; the legacy llm-pi-ai, loopback proxy and llm/stream path are removed.

⚡ Overview & The Problem
ClinePass (https://cline.bot) is a subscription service providing developers with 2–5x higher rate limits across premier open-weights coding and reasoning models through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint (https://api.cline.bot/api/v1).
Integrating ClinePass into DeepSeek Harness (DSH) natively poses key challenges:
- No
/v1/models Discovery: GET /v1/models on api.cline.bot returns 404 Not Found. Dynamic discovery fails silently or leaves the provider with 0 models.
- Model Identifier Formats: Models require the specific prefix
cline-pass/ (e.g. cline-pass/deepseek-v4.1-flash, cline-pass/kimi-k3).
- Quota Tracking: Rolling 5-hour and weekly limits need clear in-browser visualization.
- Credential Security: Storing API keys directly in plain settings is insecure.
@goodandready/dsh-clinebot provides a complete solution:
- 🚀 One-Click In-App Updater: Upgrade
@goodandready/dsh-clinebot directly from the DSH UI or trigger secure loopback updates via /dsh-clinebot/update.
- ⚡ SWR Quota & Health Caching: Instantaneous response time (<2ms) on status queries with background revalidation.
- 🔀 Smart Quota-Aware Failover: Automatic multi-account rotation on stream HTTP 429 and exhausted quota (with 30s storm protection; current request is not retried, subsequent chat requests use the next available account).
- 🖥️ Plugin configuration page: Open the installed ClineBot plugin and choose configure. The page shows the credential name, models, quota, and accounts. It is not a separate sidebar section.
- 🔄 Dynamic Subscription Model Sync: Automatically pulls real models included in your ClinePass plan directly from
GET /api/v1/users/me/plan with one-click DSH provider sync. Only actual plan models are registered in DSH, while the built-in catalog serves as a rich properties reference and fallback when unsynced.
- ⚠️ Quota Exhaustion Alerts: Real-time visual warning banners when 5-hour rolling limit reaches 80% (warning) and 95% (exhausted), complete with countdown to reset.
- 📈 Session Metrics Telemetry: Live dashboard tracking real in-flight DSH chat requests through the ClineBot provider, prompt and completion tokens, stream latency, and error counts since process startup.
- 📊 Live Quota Dashboard: Visual progress bars for 5-hour rolling limits and weekly windows from the official
GET /users/me/plan/usage-limits API.
- 🔑 In-UI Key Storage: Paste your API key directly in the UI; it is saved securely via
ctx.credentials.set() into ~/.dsh/.credentials.yaml.
- 🎯 Model Picker Management: Granular checkboxes to choose which models appear in the chat picker.
- 💬 Slash-Command
/cline: Check quota, limits, warnings, session metrics, latency, and active model directly from the DSH chat console.

✨ Features & Module Breakdown
lib/adapter.js:
Registers the ClineBotAdapter directly on ctx.llm: streaming, model catalogue, reasoning effort, pre-first-token account failover, retry policy, usage accounting and provider metadata.lib/transport/cline-transport.js:
OpenAI-compatible SSE transport with connect/idle timeouts, abort handling and upstream error classification.lib/models.js:
Dynamic subscription catalogue, curated fallback properties, reasoning efforts, custom models and plan parsing (parsePlanIncludedModels, getAllModels, getDynamicModels).lib/model-prices.js:
Explicit local cost estimates with per-model overrides. Unknown models stay unpriced instead of being reported as $0. When a newly discovered model has no price, the optional priceAutoSync setting fetches the public models.dev catalog (at most once per missing set every 6 hours); turn it off in the price card or set priceAutoSync: false while keeping the manual Sync button.lib/multimodal-budget.js:
Offloads images from earlier turns into stable text placeholders and enforces maxPayloadMb, reducing prompt-cache churn and oversized ClinePass requests. offloadedImages is included in session telemetry.- Model tools in Settings → ClineBot → Models:
The per-model Ping button calls
POST /models/probe and shows TTFT; Apply visibility calls POST /models/visible after choosing the visible models and plan-only filter.
lib/stats-storage.js:
Persistent JSON telemetry v2: cache buckets, estimated cost, TTFT/latency, sessions and day/month/model/account aggregates. v1 files upgrade on read.lib/account-pool.js / lib/session-router.js:
Credential discovery, usage-aware least-used and round-robin rotation, sticky sessions and cooldown recovery.lib/cline-client.js:
fetchUsageLimits, credential save, smoke test and the model catalogue cache.lib/index.js:
Cordis lifecycle: adapter registration, optional HTTP routes, quota warnings, /cline command, one-time cleanup of the old provider entry and TUI section registration.lib/tui-settings.js:
dsh-TUI section for key, base URL, model filters, active account, context window and output cap.
📦 Installation
dsh plugin --profile web add @goodandready/dsh-clinebot
Requires DSH 0.2.1-rc.2 or newer in the 0.2.1 line and Node 22+. ClineBot registers directly with ctx.llm; there is no transport switch or loopback proxy.
Restart your DeepSeek Harness instance and refresh the browser.
