Open-source pull request review agent

Hey HN! I'm Hussam, a Senior Algorithm Engineer at CodiumAI. We launched PR Agent a little over a year ago — it’s a free and open-source tool that helps with reviewing pull requests. The response has been great and more than 70 contributors have added to the project. Today, we're launching PR Agent as a browser extension. Key features: - AI Chat in PRs: You can ask questions about specific code changes and the context is passed to the AI model - Automated Code Reviews: The /review command does an automated review, focusing on potential bugs, security issues, and best practice violations…

Open-source pull request review agent launched on September 4, 2024 with 8 votes, #1,619 of 5,281 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

    AI code reviewer that catches what others miss

  • We built an AI to review your pull requests2025 · infinitcode.ai · ▲53

    Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

    Hi HN, hunterbrooks and nbrad here from Ellipsis (https://www.ellipsis.dev). Ellipsis automatically reviews your PRs when opened and on each new commit.

Demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X61NGZpaNQA So far, we have dozens of open source projects and companies using Ellipsis. We seem to have landed in a kind of sweet spot where there’s a good match between the current capabilities of AI tools and the actual needs of…

    Open-source AI code review agent that's aware of your entire codebase2025 · docs.sourcebot.dev · ▲5

    Hey HN! I'm one of the cofounders of Sourcebot, an open source alternative to Sourcegraph. Sourcebot lets you index thousands of repos across multiple platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket), and gives you a powerful interface to search across them. You can learn more in our original HN launch post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41711032 We just added an AI code review agent that reviews your PRs and automatically detects issues that a human reviewer may have missed. We've been using an AI code review agent for a few weeks now, and it regularly catches issues that we…
