Roo Code
A VS Code coding agent (a Cline fork). Use its OpenAI Compatible provider.
Connect
In the Roo Code settings panel:
- API Provider: OpenAI Compatible
- Base URL:
http://127.0.0.1:4010/v1 - API Key: your plugboard key
- Model:
fast, or any name from/v1/modelsthat supports tool calling - Model Configuration: set Context Window and Max Output Tokens to the model's real values; turn on Image Support only for a model that takes images. Input Price and Output Price are for Roo's own cost display.
What works
Streamed chat, tasks with native tool calls (Roo runs the tools; plugboard streams tool-call arguments), and image input.
Limits
- Roo Code uses native tool calling only, so the model must support tools.
- Set the context window and max output tokens by hand for a custom model name.
