 Both flags `false` is Claude Code's default entry for a project never asked, not a decline, and is treated like an absent flag: trust registers and the import dialog still renders.
 The why-two-entries mechanism and the consent-gating logic live in the script's own header comment, which is the one owner for that contract; the fact worth repeating here is that `../../../bin/fm-spawn.sh` refuses the spawn when the trust flag fails to land, rather than launching a worker that would wedge on that dialog.
 
+A seated spawn (`--claude-config-dir`, see "Config seat" above) passes that same directory as `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` to this registration call, so trust always lands in the exact store the launched process itself reads - never firstmate's own ambient store.

 Never try to answer either dialog with a key.
 Firstmate's key plane carries only Enter, Escape, and C-c with no arrow navigation, so it cannot move a dialog's selection at all, and both dialogs render with the cursor on their declining option, which means a sent Enter ends the session instead of accepting.

 Firstmate cannot move a selection with Enter, Escape, and C-c alone, so it cannot accept this dialog at all, and an operator accepts it once per machine instead.
 Inspect the pane to identify which dialog is on screen, and report it rather than answering it.
 A launch under `config/claude-permission-mode=auto` never meets the bypass confirmation, because it does not request bypass mode: on 2.1.269 `claude --permission-mode auto` reached the composer directly with the footer `⏵⏵ auto mode on (shift+tab to cycle)`, so a captain who refuses the bypass dialog selects `auto` there instead of accepting it.
+That setting is fleet-wide rather than per seat (the Permissions row above names its owner), so choosing `auto` to avoid the dialog for one seat moves every claude lane in that home with it.
 The workspace-trust dialog is unaffected by the permission mode and still needs the pre-registration above.
 
+### Preparing a config seat
+
+Preparing a seat for `--claude-config-dir` (see "Config seat" above) is two interactive steps, not one, and the operator does both by hand before the first seated spawn.
+First, log the account in for that store: `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=<dir> claude`.
+Second, accept that store's own bypass-permissions confirmation, which the login alone never raises - only `--dangerously-skip-permissions` asks for it - so the one command that reaches both in a single sitting is `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=<dir> claude --dangerously-skip-permissions`, accepting whatever it shows.
+A seat that was only logged into is the trap: it holds a `.claude.json`, so `fm-spawn.sh`'s seat check accepts it, and the pane then wedges on the bypass dialog that firstmate cannot answer, which the supervisor reads as a stuck agent.
+`../../../../../docs/verification/runtime-backends.md` records that exact counter-case: an isolated `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` holding only a copied `.claude.json` cleared the trust dialog and then surfaced the bypass warning.
+A captain who will not accept that dialog for a seat runs the whole home under `config/claude-permission-mode=auto` instead, with the fleet-wide consequence stated above; there is no per-seat way to decline it.
+`fm-spawn.sh` cannot verify either step: no record of the bypass acceptance was found in `.claude.json` on 2.1.278 (key names only, top level and `projects.<path>`, where `hasTrustDialogAccepted` and the import-consent flags do live), and whether Claude Code records it elsewhere was not checked, so the seat check confirms only that a store exists at that path.

+# Cline CLI
+
+Cline's `cline` TUI, verified end to end on 2026-09-16 with cline 3.0.62 on Linux through the tmux and Herdr backends.
+Verified as a CREWMATE and SCOUT adapter only; `../../../../../bin/fm-spawn.sh` refuses a secondmate launch on it because `../../../../../docs/supervision-protocols/` carries no cline wake protocol.
+`../../../../../docs/verification/cline.md` owns how every fact below was established and what is still unproven.
+
+## Operating facts
+
+| Fact | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Binary | `cline` from `PATH`, refused if absent. The installed launcher is a Node wrapper that spawns the long-lived agent as a native binary whose live process name is exactly `.cline` (verified: `ps -o comm=` reports `.cline` with `argv[0]` `.cline`). |
+| Launch | `cline -i -c <worktree> --auto-approve true -m <provider>/<model> --thinking <level>`, launched BARE and given its brief only after the readiness gate below. `--model` takes the full `<provider>/<model>` id (`cline-pass/deepseek-v4-flash`); cline derives the provider from the prefix, so no separate `-P` is passed. |
+| Brief delivery | Launch-then-send, the kimi/rovo shape, because cline's one-time "Introducing Cline Desktop" first-run splash consumes the first submitted line; the gate dismisses the splash with Escape, waits for cline's `Auto-approve` status row, then types the absolute brief pointer once and confirms delivery from the recorded `busy cline-hook` state (never by re-driving Enter). |
+| Busy state | Workspace hook config files under `.cline/hooks` (source `cline-hook` in `../../../../../bin/fm-busy-lib.sh`): `TaskStart` opens a turn; `TaskComplete`, `TaskCancel`, `TaskError`, and `SessionShutdown` all close it. `../../../../../bin/fm-spawn.sh` arms the busy generation, writes the files before launch, and excludes `.cline/` from git's view. |
+| Rendered tail | The in-transcript busy row reads `⠸ Thinking... (esc to cancel)`; when the turn ends the same row is rewritten as `▶ Thinking:` with the token gone. The bottom status row (`⏵⏵ Auto-approve all enabled (Shift+Tab)`) does NOT change between busy and idle, so it is not a signal. |
+| Turn end | The `TaskComplete` hook touches `state/<id>.turn-ended` (the watcher NOTIFICATION) in addition to closing the busy record. |
+| Exit | `/exit`, one Enter; the process exits. |
+| Interrupt | Single `Escape`, which stops the running turn and leaves the composer at its `Ask anything...` placeholder with no prompt repollution, so no clear key follows. |
+| Skill | No verified slash-skill form for injected instructions; use natural language. |
+| Autonomy | `--auto-approve true` (cline's documented default, passed explicitly) auto-approves every tool call for the run. |
+| Marker | None; a live TUI carries no cline-identity variable. Detected by ancestry alone. |
+| Resume | `--id <session-id>` resumes an existing session and `cline history --json` lists session ids, but no verified pane-resume contract exists; use deterministic relaunch. |
+| Model | `-m <provider>/<model>`; a value without `/` is refused by cline with `invalid model format. Expected format: modelType/model`. `bin/fm-spawn.sh` passes the id through unchanged. |
+| Effort | `--thinking none\|low\|medium\|high\|xhigh`; `max` stays in task metadata under the record-and-omit contract. |
+| Composer | A bordered composer with the bare agent glyph `❯` and a muted-truecolor idle placeholder (`Ask anything...`, or the fresh-session `What can I do for you?`). Both placeholders are in `../../../../../bin/fm-composer-lib.sh`'s fleet-wide idle set, but cline renders them at ~135.5 perceived luminance, just above the shared ghost-luma ceiling of 128, so on the styled tmux/herdr captures an idle cline composer classifies `pending`, never `empty`. This is the same known gap `../../verification/rovo.md` documents; cline readiness/delivery therefore lead with the `Auto-approve` status row and the recorded busy hook, and cline steering relies on the shared queued-Enter busy conversion. |
+
+## Trust, dialogs, and the first-run splash
+
+Cline was not observed to gate a fresh worktree behind a folder-trust dialog, and no launch flag or trust store was needed; `--auto-approve true` covers tool approval.
+The one first-run obstacle is the "Introducing Cline Desktop" splash, which renders only until it is dismissed once per profile and, if present, swallows the first submitted line.
+The readiness gate (`cline_wait_for_ready` in `../../../../../bin/fm-spawn.sh`) detects the splash text and sends one Escape before polling for the idle composer, so a fresh-profile worker cannot lose its brief.
+
+## Credential precondition
+
+A verified cline worker ran under a signed-in ClinePass subscription with no key export.
+Authorize with `cline auth -p cline-pass` (or the positional `cline auth cline-pass`) on a TTY; the credential lands in `~/.cline/data/settings/providers.json`.
+The unauthenticated failure mode was not observed, so treat any auth prompt or refusal as a credential blocker under `../../../../../AGENTS.md` section 9, fix the environment, and retire the endpoint rather than typing into it.
+
+## Detection
+
+Detected by ancestry alone: `../../../../../bin/fm-harness.sh` matches the anchored process name `.cline` (and, as a backup for the node wrapper, the anchored script-path fragments `/bin/cline` and `@cline/cli`).
+No environment marker is promoted: cline publishes none, and it does not clear an inherited `CLAUDECODE`, so `../../../../../bin/fm-spawn.sh` clears the foreign primary markers at the launch boundary for the same reason cursor and muse do.
+cline is deliberately absent from the session-lock name vocabulary in `../../../../../bin/fm-session-lock-lib.sh`, where muse, gemini, rovo, and agy are also absent: a crewmate-only adapter must never own a home session lock.
+
+## Worker busy state and turn end
+
+`../../../../../bin/fm-spawn.sh` arms the busy generation with a seed record of `idle/fm-spawn` (the bare launch is not a submitted turn), then writes the five `.cline/hooks` files before launch.
+`TaskStart` writes `busy cline-hook` when the brief pointer is submitted, so spawn delivery confirmation reads the same recorded state the supervisor later reads; the `(esc to cancel)` rendered token is only a fallback for a pane whose hook has not landed.
+Teardown and relaunch retire the hook files through `fm_control_harness_wiring_paths` in `../../../../../bin/fm-control-lib.sh`.
+
+## Primary integration
+
+Unsupported and unverified.
+`../../../../../docs/supervision-protocols/` carries no cline protocol, no turn-end guard adapter exists for it, and this adapter verified only the crewmate-side launch, busy state, interrupt, and exit.
+`references/common/primary-hooks.md`'s unsupported-boundary rule applies: never invent a wake protocol from a similar TUI.
