# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
## Our Pledge
In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression,
level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal
appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
## Our Standards
Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
include:
- Using welcoming and inclusive language
- Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
- Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
- Focusing on what is best for the community
- Showing empathy towards other community members
Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
- The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
advances
- Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
- Public or private harassment
- Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
address, without explicit permission
- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
professional setting
## Our Responsibilities
Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
threatening, offensive, or harmful.
## Scope
This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
## Enforcement
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
reported by contacting the project team at support@roocode.com. All complaints
will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
members of the project's leadership.

</blockquote>
## Deciding What to Work On
Looking for a good first contribution? Check out issues in the "Issue [Unassigned]" section of our [Roo Code Issues](https://github.com/orgs/RooVetGit/projects/1) Github Project. These are specifically curated for new contributors and areas where we'd love some help!
We also welcome contributions to our [documentation](https://docs.roocode.com/)! Whether it's fixing typos, improving existing guides, or creating new educational content - we'd love to build a community-driven repository of resources that helps everyone get the most out of Roo Code. You can click "Edit this page" on any page to quickly get to the right spot in Github to edit the file, or you can dive directly into https://github.com/RooVetGit/Roo-Code-Docs.
If you're planning to work on a bigger feature, please create a [feature request](https://github.com/RooVetGit/Roo-Code/discussions/categories/feature-requests?discussions_q=is%3Aopen+category%3A%22Feature+Requests%22+sort%3Atop) first so we can discuss whether it aligns with Roo Code's vision.
## Development Setup
1. **Clone** the repo:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/RooVetGit/Roo-Code.git
```
2. **Install dependencies**:
```sh
npm run install:all
```
3. **Start the webview (Vite/React app with HMR)**:
```sh
npm run dev
```
4. **Debug**:
Press `F5` (or **Run****Start Debugging**) in VSCode to open a new session with Roo Code loaded.
Changes to the webview will appear immediately. Changes to the core extension will require a restart of the extension host.
Alternatively you can build a .vsix and install it directly in VSCode:
```sh
npm run build
```
A `.vsix` file will appear in the `bin/` directory which can be installed with:
```sh
code --install-extension bin/roo-cline-<version>.vsix
```
## Writing and Submitting Code
Anyone can contribute code to Roo Code, but we ask that you follow these guidelines to ensure your contributions can be smoothly integrated:
1. **Keep Pull Requests Focused**
- Limit PRs to a single feature or bug fix
- Split larger changes into smaller, related PRs
- Break changes into logical commits that can be reviewed independently
2. **Code Quality**
- All PRs must pass CI checks which include both linting and formatting
- Address any ESLint warnings or errors before submitting
- Respond to all feedback from Ellipsis, our automated code review tool
- Follow TypeScript best practices and maintain type safety
3. **Testing**
- Add tests for new features
- Run `npm test` to ensure all tests pass
- Update existing tests if your changes affect them
- Include both unit tests and integration tests where appropriate
4. **Commit Guidelines**
- Write clear, descriptive commit messages
- Reference relevant issues in commits using #issue-number
5. **Before Submitting**
- Rebase your branch on the latest main
- Ensure your branch builds successfully
- Double-check all tests are passing
- Review your changes for any debugging code or console logs
6. **Pull Request Description**
- Clearly describe what your changes do
- Include steps to test the changes
- List any breaking changes
- Add screenshots for UI changes
## Contribution Agreement
By submitting a pull request, you agree that your contributions will be licensed under the same license as the project ([Apache 2.0](LICENSE)).
