IDE Integration Guide
BotDigit + Visual Studio Code
Visual Studio Code users can seamlessly interact with BotDigit workspaces using popular MCP-compatible extensions like Roo Code, Cline, or native MCP testing runtimes.
Supported VS Code Environments
Recommended
Roo Code (formerly Roo Clinic)
Roo Code provides first-class, built-in MCP server configuration directly in the extension settings tab. It can autonomously query workspace requirements, write code, commit changes, and trigger reviews.
- GUI MCP server manager
- Individual tool execution approval toggle
- Supports Claude 3.5 Sonnet and OpenAI o1/GPT-4o
Alternative
Cline (Autonomous Agent)
Cline allows agents to read terminals, execute commands, and invoke MCP tools. With BotDigit MCP enabled, Cline can update tasks as it solves issues.
- Full terminal and tool execution logs
- Local MCP configuration file support
- Per-action authorization model
