Overview

Roo Code is an open‑source AI coding platform that spans a local VS Code extension and a cloud service for autonomous agents. Locally, you stay in full control: approve edits and commands, review diffs, and use role‑specific modes to keep work on‑task. The extension reads and writes across multiple files, executes terminal operations, and adapts to your workflow without locking you into any single provider. In the cloud, specialized agents such as Planner, Coder, Explainer, Reviewer, and Fixer collaborate against your GitHub repos, post updates from Slack, and push PRs or fixes while you configure policies and billing centrally. Roo is model‑agnostic by design — bring your own keys or use the Roo Code Cloud provider for curated models with no markup. Security and privacy are emphasized: your local code stays on your machine unless you explicitly send context, and SOC2‑grade practices guide the platform. With token analytics, task history, remote control of the local extension from the web, and team‑friendly collaboration, Roo Code helps individuals and organizations move faster while remaining accountable.
