Local Setup & Development

  1. Clone the repo:

    git clone https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code.git
    
  2. Install dependencies:

    pnpm install
    
  3. Run the extension:

There are several ways to run the Roo Code extension:

Development Mode (F5)

For active development, use VSCode's built-in debugging:

Press F5 (or go to RunStart Debugging) in VSCode. This will open a new VSCode window with the Roo Code extension running.

  • Changes to the webview will appear immediately.
  • Changes to the core extension will also hot reload automatically.

Automated VSIX Installation

To build and install the extension as a VSIX package directly into VSCode:

pnpm install:vsix [-y] [--editor=<command>]

This command will:

  • Ask which editor command to use (code/cursor/code-insiders) - defaults to 'code'
  • Uninstall any existing version of the extension.
  • Build the latest VSIX package.
  • Install the newly built VSIX.
  • Prompt you to restart VS Code for changes to take effect.

Options:

  • -y: Skip all confirmation prompts and use defaults
  • --editor=<command>: Specify the editor command (e.g., --editor=cursor or --editor=code-insiders)

Manual VSIX Installation

If you prefer to install the VSIX package manually:

  1. First, build the VSIX package:

    pnpm vsix
    
  2. A .vsix file will be generated in the bin/ directory (e.g., bin/roo-cline-<version>.vsix).

  3. Install it manually using the VSCode CLI:

    code --install-extension bin/roo-cline-<version>.vsix
    

We use changesets for versioning and publishing. Check our CHANGELOG.md for release notes.
