A few tricks for using Cline–
- it can always see the open tabs. If you ever need it to find a specific file it may be slow to do so, but if you have the tab open it will be fast
- it can always see the initial task brief, even if other context is discarded at breakpoints. If you give it a specific task then move on to other tasks within the same session it may get confused by being prompted constantly with the initial task (especially if already completed and maybe no longer contextually relevant). Make sure to bust your sessions regularly to avoid this confusion
- it has a limit on context size, so have it keep notes for itself along the way, saving .md files for specific functions or contexts to the project folder. When you bust a session and start new, have it read its own .md files to establish its new context
