Patchrooms for Cline
Add visual feedback to your Cline app
Cline is an autonomous coding agent inside VS Code that plans and edits across your codebase. Patchrooms layers element-anchored feedback on top, so every comment turns into agent-ready context.
Open your first roomWhy Cline teams need visual feedback
- Cline plans multi-step edits, so the quality of the goal you give it directly shapes the result.
- Bug reports without an anchor make Cline’s plan guess at the target.
- Patchrooms attaches selector, screenshot, goal, and constraints to each report.
- Cline then plans against an accurate target and fixes it cleanly.

Ask Cline to wire Patchrooms in for you — paste this prompt:
Add the Patchrooms review widget. Insert this script tag into the main HTML template before the closing </body> tag, exactly as written:
…then give it the snippet below. It loads on the live preview and turns on artifact-review mode — pinpoint comments anchored to the elements your reviewers click.

data-project-key="pr_xxx"
data-source="cline"
data-mode="artifact-review"></script> Review workflow
Share the preview link with your team or client. Anyone clicks an element, leaves a comment, and Patchrooms captures the selector, a screenshot, and the page context. Every comment carries a status — new, triaged, in-progress, closed — so nothing falls through the cracks. See the full UI review workflow.
Export feedback to your AI agent
Each report exports as clean Markdown with the element selector, a screenshot reference, and the artifact goal and constraints. Paste it straight into Cline and the agent fixes the exact issue — this is the heart of AI artifact review. A Patchrooms MCP server that lets agents read reports directly is planned, and a @patchrooms/react package is coming for tighter React integration.
