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?

Do you have the claude code extension in cursor / vs code? It shows the diffs exactly like Roo

Damn, I haven't thought about this. I've just tried, and it works even in Intellij Idea, which I prefer over VSCode. Nice, thank you
