@roo-code/types v1.26.0

Roo Code API

The Roo Code extension exposes an API that can be used by other extensions. To use this API in your extension:

1. Install @roo-code/types with npm, pnpm, or yarn.
2. Import the RooCodeAPI type.
3. Load the extension API.

import { RooCodeAPI } from "@roo-code/types"

const extension = vscode.extensions.getExtension<RooCodeAPI>("RooVeterinaryInc.roo-cline")

if (!extension?.isActive) {
	throw new Error("Extension is not activated")
}

const api = extension.exports

if (!api) {
	throw new Error("API is not available")
}

// Start a new task with an initial message.
await api.startNewTask("Hello, Roo Code API! Let's make a new project...")

// Start a new task with an initial message and images.
await api.startNewTask("Use this design language", ["data:image/webp;base64,..."])

// Send a message to the current task.
await api.sendMessage("Can you fix the @problems?")

// Simulate pressing the primary button in the chat interface (e.g. 'Save' or 'Proceed While Running').
await api.pressPrimaryButton()

// Simulate pressing the secondary button in the chat interface (e.g. 'Reject').
await api.pressSecondaryButton()

NOTE: To ensure that the RooVeterinaryInc.roo-cline extension is activated before your extension, add it to the extensionDependencies in your package.json:

"extensionDependencies": ["RooVeterinaryInc.roo-cline"]

For detailed information on the available methods and their usage, refer to the roo-code.d.ts file.
