AI Code Review Agent
Build an AI code review agent that analyzes pull requests, detects bugs and anti-patterns, scores code quality, suggests improvements, and integrates with your CI/CD pipeline.
"This PR introduces a potential SQL injection on line 42 and the error handling in the retry loop is incomplete"
6 Interactive Sessions
Short, interactive sessions — watch it work, steer it, then build it yourself. Go deeper anytime with the full code walkthrough.
- 1
Read the Diff — structure beats text
Before you can review a change, you have to turn it from text into structure: which language, which function, which symbols, what kind of change. You can't reliably catch a bug you only ever read as a string.
- 2
Find the Bugs — five lenses, recall first
Run five detectors over the parsed code — bugs, security, anti-patterns, complexity, style. Catch the SQL injection on line 42 and the unhandled retry failure without burying the dev in style nits they'll learn to ignore.
- 3
Score the Change — one number hides where it's weak
Turn a pile of issues into a score a dev can act on — but break it into dimensions, because PR #247 is fine on style and fails hard on security, and a single overall number would hide exactly the thing that should block the merge.
- 4
Write the Review — advise, don't merge
Turn "SQLi at line 42" into a review a dev can act on: an inline comment on the line, the risk in plain words, a concrete parameterized-query fix, a severity ranking, and a PR summary. The agent comments and can block; the human decides and merges.
- 5
The Review Desk — where the dev actually sees it
Put the whole pipeline in front of a person: a dashboard of open PRs, a diff viewer with the line-42 comment pinned exactly where the bug is, and a quality gauge that shows the red security fail at a glance. A review nobody sees is a review that didn't happen.
- 6
Ship It in CI — every PR, automatically, and honest about it
Make the review real: a GitHub webhook fires on every PR, the agent reviews in seconds, posts its comments, and sets a check status that can block a critical merge. And measure whether it's accurate or crying wolf — because a review that flags noise gets turned off.
