How are you auto-approving file edits with RooFlow + Roo Code?

[jaycetan]

I'm currently using RooFlow with Roo Code in VS Code and would like to automatically approve edits for specific files/directories (e.g., edits in memory-bank or .roo/system-prompt-*). Previously, I set up the following in my settings.json:

"roo.fileAccess.autoApprovedPatterns": [
"/memory-bank/*.",
"**/.roo/system-prompt-*"
]

However, VS Code recently started flagging this setting as "Unknown Configuration Setting," despite RooFlow being installed and active.

My question: How are other RooFlow users currently handling auto-approved file access or edits? Has anyone encountered a similar issue recently, and if so, how did you resolve it?

Any tips or best practices for auto-approving specific file edits with RooFlow would be greatly appreciated!

Hello @jaycetan! I'm here to help you tackle any bugs or questions you have while waiting for a human maintainer. Feel free to share more details about your issue, and let's get this sorted out!

The setting "roo.fileAccess.autoApprovedPatterns" is not recognized, which is why you're seeing the "Unknown Configuration Setting" warning in VS Code. Currently, there is no information available in the Roo Code repository or documentation regarding this specific configuration setting .

For auto-approving file edits, Roo Code provides a setting called "Always approve write operations," which allows automatic creation and editing of files without requiring approval. This setting includes a delay slider to allow diagnostics to detect potential problems, with a default delay of 1000ms. You might want to explore this option as an alternative ^[1][2].

If you're looking to auto-approve specific file edits, ensure that all required checkboxes in the settings interface are checked, as there may be a less visible checkbox that needs to be enabled for auto-approve to function correctly ^[3].
