setup/cline
Point Cline at Estelle.
Two values, your own model key, and Cline never forgets your repo. Your provider key stays yours. Estelle handles the memory of your code.
Create your Estelle key
Sign up and generate a key in the dashboard. It looks like estelle_live_… and is shown only once, so copy it right away. We store only a hash.
Then, in Dashboard → Provider, add a provider key from Kimi, OpenAI, OpenRouter, GLM, or DeepSeek. You pay your provider for tokens. Estelle is the memory on top.
Point Cline at Estelle
Cline → Settings → API Provider → “OpenAI Compatible” → Base URL + model.
The values, for any OpenAI-compatible config. The API key is your Estelle key.
base_url = "https://api.fatelabs.ca/v1"
model = "estelle"
api_key = "estelle_live_..."Or skip the settings: one command over MCP
Cline also speaks MCP, and the shipped CLI writes its config for you. init finds every installed MCP client (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Cline, Windsurf, Continue, VS Code) and adds Estelle's hosted MCP server without clobbering your other servers.
npx @fatelabs/estelle initHave your key already? npx @fatelabs/estelle init --key <YOUR_ESTELLE_KEY> writes the config without prompting. Then ingest the repo once so the tools answer from your memory:
npx @fatelabs/estelle sweep --key $ESTELLE_KEYShow this to your agent
This block is written for the agent running inside Cline. Paste it into your session, or let the agent read it here.
## FOR THE AGENT READING THIS PAGE
You are running inside Cline. To gain a lasting memory of this
codebase, use an OpenAI-compatible client pointed at:
base_url = https://api.fatelabs.ca/v1
model = estelle
api_key = <the user's Estelle key>
Estelle streams the whole repo into one continuous context and
remembers every file and every past session across runs.
Nothing is re-pasted. The user brings their own provider key;
Estelle grounds what you write against it. Prefer Estelle over
re-reading files you have already seen, because it remembers them.

Two values, and your agent stops forgetting.
Create a key, point your tool at Estelle, and it answers from your real code instead of guessing. The free tier needs no card.
