Or tweak Ask mode for deeper research queries? Done. Plus, you can define these via **mode-specific `.clinerules-[mode]` files**. You’ll find all of this in the new **Prompts** tab in the top menu.

Thanks to the [Model Context Protocol](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol), Cline can extend his capabilities through custom tools. While you can use [community-made servers](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers), Cline can instead create and install tools tailored to your specific workflow. Just ask Cline to "add a tool" and he will handle everything, from creating a new MCP server to installing it into the extension. These custom tools then become part of Cline's toolkit, ready to use in future tasks.
