Cline
Connect Cline, the autonomous coding agent for VS Code, to Revo Mail for intelligent code generation and task automation.
What This Does
Cline is an autonomous AI coding agent that runs inside VS Code. It can read your codebase, write files, execute terminal commands, and iterate on complex tasks. By connecting Cline to Revo Mail, you gain access to powerful models while managing costs through a single unified balance.
Setup
Step 1: Install Cline
- Open VS Code
- Go to the Extensions marketplace (
Cmd+Shift+XorCtrl+Shift+X) - Search for Cline by Cline
- Click Install
Step 2: Open Cline Settings
- Click the Cline icon in the VS Code sidebar
- Click the gear icon or navigate to Settings
- Select Providers or API Provider
Step 3: Configure Revo Mail as Provider
In the provider configuration:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| API Provider | OpenAI Compatible |
| Base URL | https://api.revomail.io/v1 |
| API Key | Your Revo Mail API key |
| Model ID | gpt-5.4 or gpt-5.3-codex |
Get your API key from revomail.io/keys. Create a new key if you haven't already.
Step 4: Save and Test
- Save your settings
- Start a new Cline session
- Enter a prompt like "What files are in this project?" to verify connectivity
Recommended Models for Cline
| Task | Model | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Autonomous coding tasks | gpt-5.3-codex | Optimized for code generation |
| Complex multi-step reasoning | gpt-5.4 | Best for planning and analysis |
| Large context operations | gemini-3.1-pro | 1M+ context for big codebases |
| Quick iterations | glm-5-turbo | Fast responses, lower cost |
Troubleshooting
Cline shows "API key invalid"
- Verify the key has no trailing spaces or newlines
- Check that the key is active at revomail.io/keys
"Model not found" error
- Ensure you've selected OpenAI Compatible as the provider type
- Use exact model slugs:
gpt-5.4,gemini-3.1-pro, etc.
Responses are slow or timeout
- Try a faster model like
glm-5-turboorgpt-5.2 - Check your balance isn't depleted at revomail.io/billing
Cline can't connect
- Confirm the Base URL is
https://api.revomail.io/v1(no trailing slash) - Check your network allows outbound HTTPS connections
Notes
- Cline can execute terminal commands — review its actions before approving
- Token usage is per-message and charged at the active model's rate
- For long-running sessions, consider using a cost-efficient model like
glm-5 - All usage appears in your Revo Mail console in real-time
