Roo Code 3.27.0 Release Notes (2025-09-05)
This release adds message editing and deletion with instant rollback checkpoints, updates the Chutes provider with Kimi K2-0905, and improves reliability across indexing, grounding, and multi-root workspaces.
Edit and delete messages with instant rollback checkpoints
Edit or delete any chat message and quickly recover from mistakes using automatic checkpoints (thanks NaccOll!) (#7447, #7713):
- Edit or delete past messages to correct prompts without restarting the session.
- Automatic checkpoint on every user message enables instant rollback, even when no file diffs exist.
- Review changes with a Checkpoint Restore dialog before applying them.
- Runs in the background and suppresses extra chat noise.
📚 Documentation: See Checkpoints and The Chat Interface.
