* fix: eliminate UI flicker during task cancellation - Modify ClineProvider.createTaskWithHistoryItem() to detect when rehydrating current task - Implement in-place task replacement to avoid empty stack state that causes UI flicker - Add comprehensive unit tests for flicker-free cancel behavior - Maintain backward compatibility and proper event listener cleanup Fixes the jarring navigation to home view when cancelling tasks * fix: ensure proper garbage collection of old task during flicker-free rehydration - Call abortTask(true) on old task before replacement to stop processes and mark as abandoned - This ensures proper cleanup and prevents memory leaks during task cancellation - Add test verification for abortTask cleanup |

Local Setup & Development
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code.git
- Install dependencies:
pnpm install
- Run the extension:
There are several ways to run the Roo Code extension:
Development Mode (F5)
For active development, use VSCode's built-in debugging:
Press F5 (or go to Run → Start Debugging) in VSCode. This will open a new VSCode window with the Roo Code extension running.
- Changes to the webview will appear immediately.
- Changes to the core extension will also hot reload automatically.
Automated VSIX Installation
To build and install the extension as a VSIX package directly into VSCode:
pnpm install:vsix [-y] [--editor=<command>]
This command will:
- Ask which editor command to use (code/cursor/code-insiders) - defaults to 'code'
- Uninstall any existing version of the extension.
- Build the latest VSIX package.
- Install the newly built VSIX.
- Prompt you to restart VS Code for changes to take effect.
Options:
-y: Skip all confirmation prompts and use defaults--editor=<command>: Specify the editor command (e.g.,--editor=cursoror--editor=code-insiders)
Manual VSIX Installation
If you prefer to install the VSIX package manually:
- First, build the VSIX package:
pnpm vsix - A
.vsixfile will be generated in thebin/directory (e.g.,bin/roo-cline-<version>.vsix). - Install it manually using the VSCode CLI:
code --install-extension bin/roo-cline-<version>.vsix
