# Roo Code Roo Code is a free and [[Open Source]] coding agent for [[Visual Studio Code (VSCode)]]. It is a fork of [[Cline]], maintained as a separate project with its own development direction. Like Cline, Roo Code can create/edit files, execute commands, and interact with [[Large Language Models (LLMs)]]. It supports the [[Model Context Protocol (MCP)]] for tool integration. Roo Code differentiates itself from Cline through features like customizable "modes" (preconfigured agent behaviors for different tasks), a built-in boomerang orchestration pattern for multi-agent workflows, and its own marketplace for extensions. ## References - Official website: https://roocode.com - Source code: https://github.com/RooVetGit/Roo-Code - VS Code Marketplace: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=RooVetGit.roo-cline - Documentation: https://docs.roocode.com ## Related - [[Cline]] - [[AI Agent Harness]] - [[Claude Code]] - [[Cursor.com]] - [[AI Agents]] - [[Model Context Protocol (MCP)]]
