What It Does

Once installed, Claude Code can:

• Review your code — just say "review my changes" and Claude runs the review for you
• Compare branches — "review my branch against main" triggers a branch diff review
• Review patch files — point it at any .patch or .diff file
• Manage API keys — create, list, and delete keys for CI/CD
• Fix issues — Claude reads the review feedback and offers to apply fixes directly

Usage

After installing the plugin, just ask Claude naturally:

What you say	What happens
"review my changes"	Reviews uncommitted local changes
"review my branch"	Compares current branch against main
"review this diff"	Reviews an arbitrary patch file
"set up optibot"	Walks you through auth setup
"create an API key for CI"	Creates and displays a new API key

Authentication

On a dev machine — run optibot login to authenticate via browser (90-day token).

Setting up CI/CD — run optibot setup ci (CLI ≥ 0.4.0). It logs you in if needed, mints a long-lived API key, and prints copy-paste snippets for GitHub Actions and GitLab CI.

Inside a CI runner — set OPTIBOT_API_KEY=optk_... as an environment variable. Get the key with optibot setup ci from a dev machine first.

CI/CD Integration

# GitHub Actions
- name: Optibot Review
  env:
    OPTIBOT_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.OPTIBOT_API_KEY }}
  run: npx @optimalai/optibot review -b main

Uninstalling
