Git AutoReview is an AI code review tool for development teams, provided as a VS Code extension and also compatible with VS Code forks such as Cursor and VSCodium (installed via Open VSX, with the publisher, extension ID, and version consistent with the Marketplace).
[Purpose] Automatically review pull requests (PRs), helping teams shorten code reviews that might otherwise take days to about 2 minutes, reduce missed issues in manual review, unify review standards, and lower context-switching costs.
[Main Capabilities]
- Multi-platform support: GitHub Cloud and Enterprise, GitLab Cloud and Self-Managed, Bitbucket Cloud, Server, and Data Center.
- Multi-model parallelism: Run Claude, Gemini, and GPT simultaneously, integrating similar findings through intelligent merging.
- Human-in-the-Loop: AI-generated review drafts must be approved by the user before being published to the team; AI will not publish automatically.
- Full project context: AI can view related files, imports, and dependencies, not just the diff.
- Jira integration: Read ticket context and acceptance criteria, and verify them item by item against the diff.
- Bring Your Own Key (BYOK): Code is sent directly from VS Code to the selected AI provider; the tool provider does not touch the code; users must pay the provider directly for AI compute costs (about $2-5/month).
- Security scanning: Built-in 20+ rules plus AI security review, detecting SQL injection, XSS, hardcoded secrets, and more.
- Deep review (Agent): An AI agent explores the entire codebase, reads files, runs linters, checks tests, and traces data flows.
- Review Profiles: Named configurations for models, API keys, prompts, and rules, switchable with one click.
- .gitautoreview.md: Place a configuration file in the repository root to implement versioned team review rules, similar to .eslintrc for AI code review.
- Confidence scoring: Each finding includes a 0-100% confidence score to make it easier to filter noise.
- Code quality scoring: Evaluated across 6 dimensions: design, clarity, error handling, complexity, testability, and production readiness.
[How to Use]
