How to predefine roo-code extension settings for VS Code Server?

[codeMonkey-shin]

Hi,
I'm using the roo-code extension on VS Code, specifically within an environment where I deploy VS Code Server on Kubernetes.
I'd like to pre-install the roo-code extension and have its settings configured automatically when a pod is launched, rather than requiring manual configuration by each user.

Currently, it appears that the extension saves its settings locally.

Is there a way to predefine or prepopulate the configuration for roo-code (for example, through a settings file)?
If so, what is the expected path and format for these settings so I can mount/add them when my pod starts up?
Thanks in advance for your help!

To predefine or prepopulate the configuration settings for the roo-code extension in VS Code Server on Kubernetes, you can use the global configuration file mcp_settings.json or the project-level configuration file .roo/mcp.json.

1. Global Configuration:

   • Path: Accessible via VS Code settings.
   • Format: JSON file named mcp_settings.json.
   • Example:

     {
       "mcpServers": {
         "server1": {
           "command": "python",
           "args": ["/path/to/server.py"],
           "env": {
             "API_KEY": "your_api_key"
           },
           "alwaysAllow": ["tool1", "tool2"],
           "disabled": false
         }
       }
     }

2. Project-level Configuration:

   • Path: Within your project's root directory as .roo/mcp.json.
   • Format: JSON file.
   • Example:

     {
       "mcpServers": {
         "server1": {
           "command": "python",
           "args": ["/path/to/server.py"],
           "env": {
             "API_KEY": "your_api_key"
           },
           "alwaysAllow": ["tool1", "tool2"],
           "disabled": false
         }
       }
     }

The project-level configuration takes precedence over the global configuration if a server name exists in both ^[1].
