 The independently published `fsb-mcp-server` npm package keeps its own semver changelog in [`mcp/CHANGELOG.md`](./mcp/CHANGELOG.md).
 
 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## v0.9.95 — Official Cline Support — 2026-10-18
+
+The extension, showcase, skill, documentation, and store metadata align at `0.9.95`. The independently versioned `fsb-mcp-server` advances to `0.11.5` with the accompanying Cline installer fix; see [`mcp/CHANGELOG.md`](./mcp/CHANGELOG.md) for its package-specific release notes and compatibility requirements.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Cline is an officially supported MCP client.** The onboarding and showcase install pickers offer `install --cline` with the Cline logo, and the READMEs document Cline's shared settings file. A Cline session is labeled Cline on the owner chip and in the client inventory whether it connects from the VS Code extension or the SDK-based Cline CLI, and anonymous usage stats count it as Cline instead of `unknown`, with the same conservative cost fallback as other bring-your-own-model clients. The companion installer fix ships in `fsb-mcp-server` 0.11.5.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The Grok Bot plugin launches `fsb-mcp-server@0.11.5`; it previously pinned 0.11.0.
+
 ## v0.9.92 — Bridge Reliability and Editing Fixes — 2026-10-07
 
 The extension, showcase, skill, documentation, and store metadata align at `0.9.92`. The independently versioned `fsb-mcp-server` advances to `0.11.1` with the accompanying patch; see [`mcp/CHANGELOG.md`](./mcp/CHANGELOG.md) for its package-specific release notes and compatibility requirements.

+## 0.11.5 (2026-10-18)
+
+Patch release making Cline an officially supported install target, released alongside FSB extension 0.9.95.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **`install --cline` writes the file current Cline reads.** Cline's VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, and CLI share `~/.cline/data/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json`, and Cline imports its older VS Code extension-storage file only once, on upgrade. The installer still wrote the old file, so on an upgraded Cline it reported success and FSB never appeared. It now targets the shared file, honors `CLINE_MCP_SETTINGS_PATH`, `CLINE_DATA_DIR`, and `CLINE_DIR` the way Cline does, and uses the old file only when no shared settings directory exists.
+- **Long tool calls finish in Cline.** Cline applies one fixed timeout to every MCP request, 60 seconds unless configured, and does not extend it on progress notifications, so `run_task` was cut off. Cline entries now set `timeout: 1800` (seconds).
+
+### Changed
+
+- Reinstalling into Cline keeps the `timeout`, `disabled`, and `autoApprove` settings Cline stores on the `fsb` entry, so `install --all` no longer resets a Cline user's auto-approved tools.
+- `setup` prints a Cline section with the settings path and entry.
+
+### Compatibility and update
+
+- Server identity, capabilities, tool schemas, bridge contracts, and dependency versions are unchanged. Only the installer and its `setup` guidance changed. Pair it with FSB extension 0.9.95, which adds Cline to onboarding and labels Cline sessions as Cline.
+- Cline users who installed with an earlier version should rerun `npx -y fsb-mcp-server@latest install --cline` so FSB lands in the shared settings file.
+- Merging this release into `main` automatically publishes `fsb-mcp-server@0.11.5` and creates the `mcp-v0.11.5` GitHub release. Later main pushes skip publication when the MCP version is already on npm; explicit MCP release tags remain supported.
