    Excellent for open-source, privacy respecting integration of agent code editing. Unfortunately doesn't support autocompletion, but works great for explaining the code, and proposing diffs.

    The interface is nice and the checkpoint feature is great.

    Supports using your own models, or custom APIs

What is Roo Code?

Roo Code is an AI-powered autonomous coding agent that lives in your editor. It can:

  • Communicate in natural language
  • Read and write files directly in your workspace
  • Run terminal commands
  • Automate browser actions
  • Integrate with any OpenAI-compatible or custom API/model
  • Adapt its “personality” and capabilities through Custom Modes

Whether you’re seeking a flexible coding partner, a system architect, or specialized roles like a QA engineer or product manager, Roo Code can help you build software more efficiently.
