Roo Code
An autonomous open-source AI agent that can code, debug, and evolve software with minimal human intervention.
🛡️ AgentReady threat assessment
MAESTRO 7-layer threat model + OWASP AIVSS risk score for Roo Code, derived from its capabilities.
These scores are auto-generated from public information (the agent's own listing, docs, and repository) using the canonical OWASP AIVSS formula and the MAESTRO framework — an estimate for guidance, not a penetration test, audit, or certification. See the scoring methodology — every score is re-derived by the same automated method as an agent's public evidence changes.
Overview
Roo Code is an open-source autonomous AI agent designed to code, debug, and evolve software systems with minimal human input. It mimics a junior developer's workflow, using a cyclic process of planning, editing, running, and debugging code. Roo Code supports multi-turn coding sessions and automatically persists context across iterations. It is built on top of a task memory system, supports integration with your terminal and development environment, and is designed for continuous improvement through natural interactions.
