Roomote
Roomote is a cloud coding agent from the team behind Roo Code that runs your dev environment, verifies its work and returns pull requests with live previews.
About this tool
Roomote is the product now promoted at roocode.com by Roo Code, Inc. Its official repository states that the Roo Code editor extension was shut down on 15 May, pointing former users to the community fork ZooCode and to Cline, the project Roo Code originally derived from. Roomote takes a different approach: an agent that works in the cloud rather than inside your editor.
Roomote runs your actual development environment, checks that its changes work, has a second model review the code, and returns pull requests with live preview URLs for approval. It can work on several tasks in parallel across repositories, run on a schedule, monitor systems and respond to issues, and connect to your repository, issue tracker, logs, documentation and database. It can be self-hosted or used in the vendor’s cloud.
What you can do
Verified pull requests
Runs the app before finishing, reviews code with a second model and opens PRs with live previews.
Parallel tasks
Works on multiple tasks at once while keeping context, including changes across repositories.
Scheduled and reactive work
Runs on a schedule or responds to monitored issues without a prompt.
Model and hosting choice
Assign different providers per job and run self-hosted or in the cloud.
Who is it for?
- A team lets Roomote pick up small inbound bugs and reviews the resulting PRs.
- An engineering lead schedules weekly dependency-update tasks across several repositories.
- Former Roo Code users evaluate a cloud agent alongside editor-based alternatives.
Before you choose
Roo Code’s editor extension is discontinued; if you need an in-editor agent, consider the alternatives its maintainers suggest.
Giving an autonomous agent access to logs and databases requires strict permission scoping.
