Automate code and design review workflows on Git branches and commits using roborev, including iterative review-fix loops, single-pass fixing of all open findings, and closing reviews with comments. Supports optional security- or design-focused review types.
AI-powered code review analysis — Run three-level AI analysis and implement-review-fix loops directly in your coding agent. Works standalone, no server required.
Continuous code review for AI coding agents. roborev runs in the
background, reviews every commit as agents write code, and surfaces
issues in seconds -- before they compound. Pull code reviews into
your agentic loop while context is fresh.
How It Works
Run roborev init to install a post-commit hook
Every commit triggers a background review -- agents write, roborev reads
View findings in the TUI, feed them to your agent, or let roborev fix handle it
Background Reviews - Every commit is reviewed automatically via
git hooks. No workflow changes required.
Auto-Fix - roborev fix feeds review findings to an agent that
applies fixes and commits. roborev refine iterates until reviews pass.
Code Analysis - Built-in analysis types (duplication, complexity,
refactoring, test fixtures, dead code, security) that agents can fix
automatically.
Multi-Agent - Works with Codex, Claude Code, Gemini, Copilot,
OpenCode, Cursor, Kiro, Kilo, Droid, and Pi.
Runs Locally - No hosted service or additional infrastructure.
Reviews are orchestrated on your machine using the coding agents
you already have configured.
Interactive TUI - Real-time review queue with vim-style navigation.
Review Verification - roborev compact verifies findings against
current code, filters false positives, and consolidates related issues
into a single review.
Extensible Hooks - Run shell commands on review events. Built-in
beads integration creates trackable issues from
review failures automatically.
The Agentic Fix Loop
When reviews find issues, copy-and-paste the reviews into your
interactive agent sessions, or invoke the roborev:fix skills. You
can also address open reviews on the command line non-interactively
with roborev fix.
roborev fix shows the review findings to an agent, which applies
changes and commits. The new commit gets reviewed automatically,
closing the loop.
For fully automated iteration (advanced feature), use refine:
roborev refine # Fix, re-review, repeat until passing
refine runs in an isolated worktree and loops: fix findings, wait for
re-review, fix again, until all reviews pass or --max-iterations is hit.
Code Analysis
Run targeted analysis across your codebase and optionally auto-fix:
roborev analyze duplication ./... # Find duplication
roborev analyze refactor --fix *.go # Suggest and apply refactors
roborev analyze complexity --wait main.go # Analyze and show results
roborev analyze test-fixtures *_test.go # Find test helper opportunities
roborev analyze security ./... # Find security risks in existing code
Available types: test-fixtures, duplication, refactor, complexity,
api-design, dead-code, architecture, security.
Analysis jobs appear in the review queue. Use roborev fix <id> to
apply findings later, or pass --fix to apply immediately.
This repo uses prek for local pre-commit checks.
The hook is a local system hook that runs make lint, so pre-commit can apply
golangci-lint --fix automatically instead of using the upstream
golangci-lint pre-commit repository. The hook is configured with
always_run = true, so it runs on every commit, not just commits that touch
Go files.
