A shared engine supports many hosted, gateway, compatible, and local providers.
Agent Atlas / Coding agents
cline/cline
An open coding-agent engine presented through IDE extensions, a CLI, an SDK, a multi-agent task board, scheduled work, plugins, MCP, and checkpoints.

Intended operator
Developers supervising work in an IDE, terminal, automation, or task board.
Primary surfaces
VS Code and JetBrains / CLI and SDK / Kanban and scheduled agents
Tracked repository
Teaching mechanism
Plan and Act separate exploration from approved effects
The project documents a Plan mode for investigation and strategy, an Act mode for execution, per-action approvals, optional auto-approval, diffs, and reversible checkpoints.
Evidence limitProject documentation describes the control contract; TheGitReporter has not yet traced every surface through the shared engine.

System Map
Eight inspection boundariesProject structure, rules, skills, session context, checkpoints, and persistent team state shape work.
File edits, terminal commands, browser actions, plugins, custom tools, and MCP execute across IDE and CLI hosts.
Per-action approval and optional auto-approval create distinct operator modes.
Diff review and checkpoints support modification and reversal; team and scheduled state persist across sessions.
Coordinator and specialist agents, worktrees, dependencies, and team state form the documented multi-agent surface.
Plan/Act, diffs, approvals, checkpoints, and task-board views expose different control moments.
Repository packages, evals, changelogs, docs, diffs, and checkpoints provide the inspection surface.

Open Questions
- Does the same approval and checkpoint contract survive IDE, CLI, headless, scheduled, and multi-agent modes?
Evidence state describes what this Atlas profile can support today. It is not a product score and it is not evidence that uninspected capabilities are absent.
