What is CodeRabbit?
CodeRabbit is an AI tool for reviewing code changes in pull requests. It runs automated reviews on every PR, flags potential issues with severity labels, and can suggest committable fixes. It also includes triage, which ranks pending review work by priority, and a change stack view for understanding how changes fit together.
In practice, teams connect it to their repositories and it comments on PRs like a reviewer, can be asked questions in chat, learns team conventions from feedback, and integrates with linters, SAST tools, Jira and Linear. Higher plans add multi-repo analysis, custom pre-merge checks, post-merge actions, and security review of each PR, along with a separate usage-based security scan and a cloud agent billed per minute.
