Can Roo Code's built-in terminal inherit environment variables set by VS Code?

Conda and Python environments are set up in my VS Code terminal, but roo code doesn't seem to inherit them. I'm not sure if it's an issue with my setup.

Yes, Roo Code's built-in terminal can inherit environment variables from VS Code, including those needed for Conda and Python environments, as long as the terminal.integrated.inheritEnv setting is enabled (which is the default) docs. If you're seeing missing variables, check that this setting is enabled in both VS Code and Roo Code.

On macOS, how you launch VS Code matters: if you open it from the command line, it inherits your shell's environment (including Conda/Python setup). If you open it from Finder, Dock, or Spotlight, variables set in .zshrc or .zprofile might not be picked up. In that case, move your environment variable exports to .zshenv and log out/in to ensure they're available docs.

If you've confirmed the setting is enabled and are still having issues, let me know how you're launching VS Code and where your environment variables are set. There aren't specific docs about Conda/Python activation quirks, but these steps usually resolve most environment inheritance issues.

I'm on Windows, SSHing to Linux, and the terminal.integrated.inheritEnv you mentioned is set. My VS Code settings are in settings.json.

    // PYTHONPATH
    "terminal.integrated.env.linux": {
        "PYTHONPATH": "${workspaceFolder}"
    },
    "terminal.integrated.env.windows": {
        "PYTHONPATH": "${workspaceFolder}"
    },
    "terminal.integrated.env.osx": {
        "PYTHONPATH": "${workspaceFolder}"
    },
    
    // Python
    "python.defaultInterpreterPath": "/opt/miniconda3/envs/thuts28x/bin/python",
    "python.analysis.extraPaths": [
        "${workspaceFolder}"
    ]
}

The Settings in ~/.bashrc are as follows

if [ -f /root/start_ssh.sh ]; then
      /root/start_ssh.sh
fi
# <<< ssh <<<

# >>> conda initialize >>>
# !! Contents within this block are managed by 'conda init' !!
__conda_setup="$('/opt/miniconda3/bin/conda' 'shell.bash' 'hook' 2> /dev/null)"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
    eval "$__conda_setup"
else
    if [ -f "/opt/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" ]; then
        . "/opt/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh"
    else
        export PATH="/opt/miniconda3/bin:$PATH"
    fi
fi
unset __conda_setup
# <<< conda initialize <<<
