Roo Code

Roo Code VS Code extension.

Source: src/providers/roo-code.ts
Loading: eager (src/providers/index.ts:11)
Test: tests/providers/roo-code.test.ts (247 lines)

Where it reads from

VS Code extension globalStorage for rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline (extension ID set at roo-code.ts:4). The actual walk is delegated to discoverClineTasks in src/providers/vscode-cline-parser.ts.

Storage format

Per-task directories with ui_messages.json and api_conversation_history.json. See vscode-cline-parser for the schema.

Caching

None at the provider level; delegates to the shared helper.

Deduplication

Delegated. Per <providerName>:<taskId>:<index> (in vscode-cline-parser.ts:109).

Quirks

Thin wrapper. Almost every Roo Code bug actually lives in vscode-cline-parser.ts.
The VS Code extension wrappers using the Cline-family parser differ only by extension ID.

When fixing a bug here

If the bug also reproduces against Cline or KiloCode, fix it in vscode-cline-parser.ts.
If the bug is Roo Code-specific, the difference is upstream JSON shape. Reproduce with a fixture and consider whether the cline parser needs to branch on extension ID.
Read vscode-cline-parser.md before editing.
