Cline CLI 3.0.6 Adds Support for GPT-5.2, GPT-5.4, and GPT-5.4-mini Models
Cline released CLI version 3.0.6 with updated ChatGPT provider model list. The patch adds support for codex variants and three new GPT-5 series models: gpt-5.2, gpt-5.4, and gpt-5.4-mini.
Cline CLI 3.0.6 Adds Support for GPT-5.2, GPT-5.4, and GPT-5.4-mini Models
Cline, an AI-powered coding assistant, released CLI version 3.0.6 on May 17, 2025. The update expands the ChatGPT provider model list to include newly available GPT-5 series models.
What Changed
The patch release makes a single fix to the ChatGPT provider configuration:
- Added support for codex variants
- Added gpt-5.2 subscription model
- Added gpt-5.4 subscription model
- Added gpt-5.4-mini subscription model
The update follows CLI version 3.0.5, released earlier this month. The full changelog is available on GitHub.
Model Availability
The newly added models appear to be subscription-tier offerings from OpenAI, though OpenAI has not publicly announced GPT-5 series models. The inclusion of "codex variants" suggests enhanced code generation capabilities, consistent with Cline's focus as a coding assistant.
The gpt-5.4-mini designation follows OpenAI's naming convention of smaller, more efficient model variants seen with GPT-4-mini and GPT-3.5-turbo.
Installation
Users can update to CLI v3.0.6 through standard package managers or by downloading the release assets directly from the GitHub repository.
What This Means
Cline's rapid addition of GPT-5 model support indicates either private API access or preparation for an imminent OpenAI announcement. The specific model names—gpt-5.2, gpt-5.4, and gpt-5.4-mini—suggest multiple capability tiers, potentially matching the GPT-4, GPT-4-turbo, and GPT-4-mini structure. For developers using Cline, this update positions the tool to leverage next-generation language models as soon as they become generally available, though pricing and performance benchmarks remain unknown until official OpenAI disclosure.
