Roo Code 3.38.3 Release Notes (2026-01-03)

This release adds an option to recursively load project rules in subfolders and fixes several reliability issues.

QOL Improvements​

  • Recursive subfolder rules loading (optional): Adds a Context setting that can automatically load additional .roo/rules and AGENTS.md files from subdirectories, making it easier to work in multi-repo/monorepo folders without manually switching roots (#10446)

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixes an issue where Claude Code users could be forced to sign in again roughly daily, improving session reliability and reducing interruptions (#10410)
  • Fixes an issue where the in-chat text-to-speech (TTS) flow could crash if a message’s text value wasn’t a string, preventing the chat panel from breaking mid-task (thanks notglossy!) (#10431)
  • Fixes an issue where Roo’s native read_file tool schema didn’t advertise a maximum number of files per call, reducing failed tool calls in environments that enforce low limits (#10449)
