Cline#

Markers: .clinerules/ in the project root for project-scope; ~/.clinerules/ for user-scope.

Install location:

  • User-scoped: ~/.clinerules/safelint.md, Cline auto-loads user-global rules across workspaces.
  • Project-scoped: <cwd>/.clinerules/safelint.md, Cline auto-loads any .md under .clinerules/. Recommended for team-shared repos, commit the file.

How to invoke after install:

Reload your IDE (or restart Cline). The rule is auto-loaded. Then ask Cline "run safelint" / "lint with safelint", same prompts as the other clients.

Manual install:

safelint skill install --client cline --project   # recommended for team-shared repos
safelint skill install --client cline             # user-global

See Manual install for the full flag reference.
