Summary

This PR implements automatic configuration import on extension load as requested in issue #4792.

Changes Made

New VSCode Setting

  • Added setting to specify the path to a config file
  • Supports absolute paths, relative paths, and home directory expansion ()
  • Default value is empty (auto-import disabled)

Implementation

  • Created utility function with comprehensive error handling
  • Integrated auto-import functionality into extension activation process
  • Added path resolution logic for cross-platform compatibility
  • Graceful error handling - extension continues to work if config import fails

User Experience

  • Shows success notification when config is automatically imported
  • Shows warning notification if import fails (non-blocking)
  • Logs detailed information to output channel for debugging

Testing

  • Added comprehensive test coverage for various scenarios
  • Tests cover path resolution, error handling, and success cases
  • All existing tests continue to pass

How to Use

  1. Export your RooCode configuration using the existing export functionality
  2. Place the exported JSON file at a desired location (e.g., )
  3. Set the setting to point to your config file
  4. Restart VSCode - your configuration will be automatically imported

Acceptance Criteria Met

✅ Config file at specified path is automatically loaded on extension startup
✅ Users can instantly use RooCode with their Provider Profiles and Global Settings
✅ Lack of config file does not cause RooCode to fail
✅ Cross-platform path support (Windows, macOS, Linux)
✅ Fault-tolerant implementation with proper error handling

Technical Details

  • Uses existing import/export infrastructure for consistency
  • Maintains backward compatibility - no breaking changes
  • Follows established patterns in the codebase
  • Proper TypeScript typing and error handling
  • Comprehensive logging for troubleshooting

Closes #4792

- Add new VSCode setting 'roo-cline.autoImportConfigPath' for specifying config file path
- Implement autoImportConfig utility function with path resolution and error handling
- Integrate auto-import functionality into extension activation
- Add comprehensive test coverage for auto-import scenarios
- Support absolute paths, relative paths, and home directory expansion (~/)
- Graceful error handling - extension continues to work if config import fails
- User notifications for successful imports and warnings for failures
