Roo Code + Groq

Roo Code is an AI-powered coding assistant available as a VS Code extension that brings AI-powered coding assistance directly to your editor. Pair it with Groq's LPU inference to get ultra-fast response times for interactive development workflows with native Groq provider support.

Prerequisites

   Open Roo Code settings (click the gear icon in the Roo Code panel) and:
   • Select "Groq" from the "API Provider" dropdown
   • Paste your Groq API key into the "Groq API Key" field
   • Choose your desired model from the "Model" dropdown

   Your API key is stored securely in your editor's settings.

2. Start Coding
   Open the Roo Code panel and start chatting or use autocomplete features. Groq's ultra-fast inference will provide near-instant responses.
