Cline Memory Bank (official) — Summary

The official Cline Memory Bank is a methodology and best-practice pattern published at docs.cline.bot. It is not a GitHub repository but a documentation page that canonicalizes the memory bank approach (originally developed by nickbaumann98) for Cline users. The pattern defines six required Markdown files in a memory-bank/ folder, a .clinerules learning journal, and two workflow modes (Plan/Act). The official version adds minor refinements to the original nickbaumann98 version but is architecturally identical. This entry is Tier C — it is a documentation URL, not a code repository, so only summary and METRICS can be populated. The pattern is widely adopted across the Cline community and represents the most common approach to session continuity in Cline-based development.
