Cline v3.86.0 adds provider support for Claude Opus 4.8, including 1M-context variants where available, and Moonshot Kimi K2.6 models. The update also fixes prompt-cache support display for Qwen 3.7 Max.

Augment Code released Prism, a model routing system that selects between frontier models and cheaper alternatives per user turn. On internal benchmarks, Prism matches Claude Opus 4.7 and GPT 5.5 quality while reducing per-task costs by 20-30%, translating to approximately $20,000 monthly savings for teams sending 10,000 requests.

Moonshot AI released Kimi Latest, a router endpoint that automatically redirects to the most recent model in the Kimi family. The model features a 262,144 token context window, though specific pricing and performance benchmarks have not been disclosed.

Cursor acknowledged that its newly launched Composer 2 coding model was built on Moonshot AI's open-source Kimi 2.5 model, not developed independently. The admission came after user scrutiny revealed code references to Kimi. Cursor claims only 25% of compute came from the base model, with 75% from its own training and reinforcement learning.
