Open-source VS Code agent with human approval on every tool call

Cline is the batteries-included agent for VS Code: it plans, edits files, runs terminal commands and can drive a browser, pausing for human approval on each tool call. TrustTheBench's 2026 sweep measured 66.8% on SWE-bench Verified at $0.42 per task, making it one of the cheapest ways to run an agentic edit loop on your own API key.
