Roo AI Assistant Integration

Integrate 9Router with Roo AI Assistant to access multiple AI models through a unified interface.

Prerequisites

• Roo AI Assistant installed
• 9Router API key from dashboard
• 9Router running (local or cloud)

Configuration Steps

1. Open Roo Settings

Launch Roo AI Assistant and open the settings panel.

2. Configure API Provider

1. Navigate to API Provider settings
2. Select Ollama as the provider type
3. Configure the following settings:

For Local 9Router:

Base URL: http://localhost:20128/v1
API Key: your-api-key-from-dashboard

For Cloud 9Router:

Base URL: https://9router.com/v1
API Key: your-api-key-from-dashboard

3. Select Model

Choose from available 9Router models:

Claude Models:

• cc/claude-opus-4-5-20251101 - Most capable
• cc/claude-sonnet-4-20250514 - Balanced
• cc/claude-haiku-4-20250514 - Fast

DeepSeek Models:

• cx/deepseek-chat - General purpose
• cx/deepseek-reasoner - Complex reasoning

GLM Models:

• glm/glm-4-plus - Advanced
• glm/glm-4-flash - Fast responses

4. Test Connection

Send a test message to verify the integration:

Hello! Can you confirm you're connected through 9Router?

Usage Examples

Basic Chat

Ask Roo: "Explain quantum computing in simple terms"
Model: cc/claude-sonnet-4-20250514

Code Generation

Ask Roo: "Write a Python function to calculate Fibonacci numbers"
Model: cx/deepseek-chat

Complex Reasoning

Ask Roo: "Analyze the trade-offs between microservices and monolithic architecture"
Model: cx/deepseek-reasoner

Model Selection Tips

• Quick tasks: Use cc/claude-haiku-4-20250514 or glm/glm-4-flash
• Balanced performance: Use cc/claude-sonnet-4-20250514 or cx/deepseek-chat
• Complex reasoning: Use cc/claude-opus-4-5-20251101 or cx/deepseek-reasoner
• Cost optimization: Use DeepSeek or GLM models

Troubleshooting

Connection Failed

• Verify 9Router is running: curl http://localhost:20128/health
• Check API key is correct
• Ensure Base URL includes /v1 suffix

Model Not Available

• Check model name matches exactly (case-sensitive)
• Verify model is enabled in your 9Router plan
• Try a different model from the list

Slow Responses

• Switch to faster models (haiku, flash)
• Check network connection
• Monitor 9Router logs for issues

Advanced Configuration

Custom Model Aliases

You can create shortcuts for frequently used models in Roo settings:

Alias: "fast" → cc/claude-haiku-4-20250514
Alias: "smart" → cc/claude-opus-4-5-20251101
Alias: "code" → cx/deepseek-chat

Multiple Profiles

Set up different profiles for different use cases:

• Development: DeepSeek models for code
• Writing: Claude models for content
• Research: Reasoner models for analysis

Next Steps

• Configure Cursor for IDE integration
• Set up Continue for VSCode
• Explore CLI usage
