Roo Code

  • ID: roo
  • Store: VS Code-host globalStorage rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline/tasks/<taskId>/api_conversation_history.json; per-task metadata in history_item.json (id, ts, task, workspace). Code, Code Insiders, VSCodium, Cursor and Windsurf host roots are probed.
  • Read override: DEJA_ROO_ROOTS (path list)
  • Format: whole-file JSON rewritten on change; full re-parse per pass

The transcript shape matches Cline's legacy store (Roo is a Cline fork), so

the same text-block extraction and <task> envelope unwrapping apply.

Format verified against Roo-Code source (src/shared/globalFileNames.ts,

src/core/task-persistence); a live-loop validation with the running

extension is still welcome — Roo is GUI-only, so deja reads its history and

serves it to other agents rather than injecting into Roo itself.

  • MCP: Roo manages its own MCP servers from the extension UI

(mcp_settings.json); point it at deja mcp manually if desired.

  • Resume: extension UI only.
  • Handoff: paste.

deja reads this format and nineteen others, and turns what it finds into memory your agents can search. See the harness matrix for what is wired where, or install it and search your own history.
