Built a dashboard with Cline?
We'll make it production-ready.
Dashboards aggregate and display your most important business data — revenue metrics, user analytics, operational KPIs. They need to load fast, display accurate numbers, and restrict access to authorized users. AI tools build visually impressive charts quickly, but the underlying data queries are often slow, insecure, or return incorrect aggregations.
Dashboard challenges in Cline apps
Building a dashboard with Cline is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
Query performance at scale
AI-generated dashboards run raw database queries on every page load. With thousands of rows, these queries take seconds or minutes instead of milliseconds. You need materialized views, pre-aggregated data, proper indexing, and caching to keep dashboards responsive.
Data accuracy
A dashboard that shows wrong numbers is worse than no dashboard at all. AI tools generate SQL aggregations that look correct but miss edge cases — timezone handling, duplicate records, null values, and off-by-one errors in date ranges produce silently incorrect metrics.
Access control and data exposure
Dashboards display sensitive business data. AI tools often skip role-based access, meaning anyone with the URL can see revenue figures, customer data, or operational metrics. Different team members need different data visibility levels.
Real-time vs. cached data
Some metrics need to be live (active users, system status), while others can be cached (monthly revenue, historical trends). AI tools either make everything real-time (slow, expensive) or everything static (stale). You need a thoughtful caching strategy.
Chart and visualization bugs
AI-generated charts often have subtle issues — wrong axis scales, misleading truncated Y-axes, color schemes that are indistinguishable for colorblind users, and tooltips that show raw data instead of formatted values. These issues erode trust in the data.
Filter and drill-down interactions
Users need to filter by date range, segment, region, or other dimensions and drill into the details behind any number. AI tools build static charts but not the interactive filtering and drill-down that makes dashboards actually useful for decision-making.
Export and reporting
Stakeholders need to export data to CSV, generate PDF reports, or schedule automated email summaries. AI tools rarely implement data export, and when they do, the output format often breaks in Excel or includes raw technical field names.
What we check in your Cline dashboard
Common Cline issues we fix
Beyond dashboard-specific issues, these are Cline patterns we commonly fix.
Unsupervised file modifications
Cline modifies multiple files autonomously. Without careful review, security-critical changes like auth configuration or API permissions can go unnoticed.
Dependency installation without audit
Cline installs npm packages autonomously without checking for known vulnerabilities, malicious packages, or unnecessary additions.
Cascading changes across files
Cline's multi-file edits sometimes introduce bugs in files that weren't the focus of the change, causing regressions in unrelated features.
Execution of generated scripts
Cline can execute terminal commands as part of its workflow. Generated scripts may have unintended side effects on your development environment.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a dashboard with Cline?
Cline is a great starting point for a dashboard. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but dashboards have specific requirements — query performance at scale and data accuracy — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does Cline leave in dashboards?
Common issues include: unsupervised file modifications, dependency installation without audit, cascading changes across files. For a dashboard specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for query performance at scale.
How do I make my Cline dashboard production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Cline-built dashboards, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to fix a Cline-built dashboard?
Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger dashboard projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
