WormGPT with VS Code + Roo Code

1

Install the Roo Code Extension

Required

Open VS Code and go to the Extensions panel (Ctrl+Shift+X on Windows / Cmd+Shift+X on Mac). Search for Roo Code and install it.

Alternatively, click the button below to open the extension page directly in VS Code:

Open in VS Code

💡

Extension ID: RooVeterinaryInc.roo-cline — make sure you install the official Roo Code extension, not an older fork.

2

Open Roo Code Settings

Required

After installation a Roo Code icon will appear in your Activity Bar (left sidebar). Click it to open the panel, then click the ⚙ Settings button (or the gear icon at the top of the panel).

You need to configure a Custom API Provider. Click "Add Configuration Profile" or go to the default profile and change the API Provider dropdown to OpenAI Compatible.

📌

You can also reach settings via Ctrl+Shift+P → "Roo Code: Open Settings".

3

Configure the API Provider

Required

Set the following values in the Roo Code settings panel:

API Provider

OpenAI Compatible

Base URL

https://wormgpt.checkleaked.com/v1

API Key

Your WormGPT API key — provided after purchase (starts with wgpt_…)

Model

Roo Code — API Configuration

API Provider OpenAI Compatible

Base URL https://wormgpt.checkleaked.com/v1

API Key wgpt_••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Model wormv4.5

Context Window 128,000 tokens

✅

These are the exact settings shown in the screenshot above — already tested and confirmed working.

4

Available Models

Info

The proxy supports multiple models. Use wormv4.5 as your primary — it is the latest release and the default for all callers.

wormv4.5

Latest model — recommended, 128K context window

Primary

wormv4.1

Fully uncensored alternative — pick manually if needed

Alternate

🔄

You can switch models any time by changing the Model field in Roo Code settings. The proxy supports each model independently.

5

Save and Start Chatting

Final Step

Click Save (or the checkmark) in the Roo Code settings panel. The model list will refresh and show wormv4.5 as available.

Open any file or project in VS Code, then open the Roo Code panel and type your first prompt. Roo Code supports multiple modes:

💬Ask mode — ask questions about your code, get explanations, documentation lookups.
💻Code mode — AI writes, refactors, or fixes code directly in your editor files.
🔧Architect mode — high-level planning, system design, and multi-file reasoning.
🤖Agent mode — fully autonomous task execution: reads, writes, runs terminal commands.

⚡

Quick start: Press Ctrl+Shift+P → "Roo Code: Open in New Tab" to get a full-screen chat panel while you code.

6

Optional — Custom Context Window & Max Tokens

Optional

If Roo Code doesn't auto-detect the model limits you can set them manually in the settings panel:

Context Window (tokens)

128000

Max Output Tokens

8192

These match the values shown in the tested configuration screenshot.

Troubleshooting

Help

❌ "Invalid API key" / 401 error — Double-check you pasted your full API key (starts with wgpt_) with no extra spaces.
❌ Model not found / empty list — Make sure the Base URL ends exactly with /v1 (no trailing slash or extra path).
❌ Responses time out — The proxy auto-retries. If issues persist check your key's daily quota on the dashboard.
❌ wormv4.5 returns errors — Normal during maintenance windows. Try switching to wormv4.1 from the model picker.
❓ Still stuck? — Join the Discord support server and open a ticket.

⚠️

Never share your API key. It is tied to your account and daily quota. Regenerate it from the dashboard if you suspect it was exposed.
