Release Notes

Added - Add GPT-5.6 ChatGPT subscription models. Changed - Soften and shorten the message shown when Cline hits the consecutive mistake limit. Fixed - Handle cumulative usage snapshots from OpenAI-compatible providers so token counts are no longer over-reported. - Load skills from files saved as UTF-8 with a byte-order mark (BOM). Full Changelog: https://github.com/cline/cline/compare/v4.0.8...v4.0.9 --- Manually created due to a GitHub API outage — the automated workflow published v4.0.9 to the VS Code Marketplace and Open VSX Registry successfully, but the GitHub API degradation caused its release-creation step to fail afterward.
