EDGE RUNTIME ARCHITECTURE

How Cline (Claude Dev) Works with MinTok Edge

When integrating Cline (Claude Dev) with MinTok, your development workflow benefits from a two-tier edge compilation architecture. Requests originating from Cline (Claude Dev) route through MinTok's Cloudflare Edge proxy (`https://mintok.adstim.net/v1`).

Before payload transmission to the underlying reasoning models, the edge compiler validates incoming JSON schemas, isolates tool call histories, and applies Tree-sitter abstract syntax tree compaction to file reads. This ensures that Cline (Claude Dev) maintains a lightweight context footprint even during complex, 50-turn debugging sessions across enterprise repositories.

SETUP RUNBOOK

Step-by-Step Configuration

Open the Cline extension in VS Code.

Click the Settings gear icon in the top right.

Set API Provider to 'OpenAI Compatible'.

Set Base URL to: https://mintok.adstim.net/v1

Enter your MinTok API Key: mtk_live_xxxxxxxx.

Set Model ID to: mintok-1-max (or mintok-1-pro).

Save and start your autonomous coding session.

# Cline System Instructions
Always leverage MinTok AST symbol boundaries when applying changes.
Run verification tests after every edit step.
Avoid re-reading entire files when targeted slices are sufficient.

OPTIMAL WORKLOAD PARTITIONING

Dual-Model Strategy: Maximize Speed & Slash Unit Cost

To maximize cost efficiency and speed in Cline (Claude Dev), we recommend a dual-model configuration:
1. Fast / Agile Tier (`mintok-1-flash`): Set as your inline autocomplete, git commit message, and test-runner summarization model. Operates at <150ms latency and $0.05/M prompt tokens.
2. Frontier / Architecture Tier (`mintok-1-max`): Set as your primary agent reasoning and multi-file refactoring model. Captures 1658 Coding Arena Elo at $0.42/M prompt tokens (6.2x cheaper than Claude Sonnet 5.5).

PRODUCTION TROUBLESHOOTING

Common Edge Cases & Resolution

Resolving Context Window Truncation

Ensure your request payload does not manually duplicate previously sent file contents. MinTok automatically handles state deduplication across turns.

Custom Proxy & Corporate Firewalls

If your corporate network intercepts SSL certificates, ensure the MinTok base URL is whitelisted: `https://mintok.adstim.net/v1`. MinTok runs on Cloudflare's global anycast network with TLS 1.3.

Streaming Response Buffer Stalls

If completions appear buffered in your terminal or IDE, ensure HTTP/2 or SSE streaming is enabled in your configuration.

Verification & Connection Test

Once configured, verify connectivity with: curl -H "Authorization: Bearer mtk_live_..." https://mintok.adstim.net/v1/models

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything You Need to Know About Cline (Claude Dev) + MinTok

How long does it take to connect MinTok to Cline (Claude Dev)?

Setup typically takes under 2 minutes. You only need to set the OpenAI Base URL to `https://mintok.adstim.net/v1` and add your `mtk_live_...` API key in Cline (Claude Dev)'s settings.

Are there rate limits on concurrent agent loops?

Standard plans include up to 100 requests per minute with automatic burst scaling across Cloudflare Edge PoPs.

Can I use MinTok with private corporate repositories?

Yes. MinTok enforces zero code retention. Code is processed inside secure V8 WebAssembly sandboxes and never written to disk or used for training.

What credit balance do I need to get started?

Every new account receives $10 in free testing credits, which is sufficient for over 10,000 tasks on MinTok-1-Pro.
