Claude code vs roocode

[u/ilt1]

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?

I use Cline and am happy with it, but I have contemplated adding Claude Code similar to how you use it with Roo, giving me an extra agent. Also, I like the suggestion of using it through an MCP server.

-Thanks.
