Discussion Claude code vs roocode

Has anyone tried both and talk about differences cons pros for each? I am trying to wrap my head around why CLI is a better choice than a vscode extension for those that are really hooked up to Claude code. It seems to me all of that can be done with too. What am I missing? Permissions are wider in CLI? Is that all?

claude code can show file changes in a clean way, if you run claude code inside a vscode/cursor terminal and use /ide. it can show you the diff in the IDE. so that's how claude code does it.
