AI Code Review
Automate code reviews with AI agents that catch bugs, security issues, and style violations.
Quick Start
import subprocess
import json
from anthropic import Anthropic
client = Anthropic()
def get_pr_diff():
result = subprocess.run(
["git", "diff", "main...HEAD"],
capture_output=True, text=True
)
return result.stdout
def review_code(diff: str) -> dict:
response = client.messages.create(
model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
system="You are an expert code reviewer. Analyze diffs for:\n"
"1. Security vulnerabilities (XSS, SQLI, CSRF, injection)\n"
"2. Performance issues (N+1 queries, memory leaks)\n"
"3. Logic bugs (off-by-one, race conditions)\n"
"4. Type safety (missing null checks, any usage)\n"
"5. Code quality (dead code, complexity, duplication)\n"
"Rate each category: CRITICAL, WARNING, INFO",
messages=[{
"role": "user",
"content": f"Review this diff:\n```diff\n{diff}\n```"
}],
max_tokens=2000
)
return response.content[0].text
if __name__ == "__main__":
diff = get_pr_diff()
if diff:
print(review_code(diff))
Key Concepts
AI code review complements (not replaces) human review. Best for catching common issues, suggesting improvements, and enforcing conventions. Integrate via CI pipeline or pre-commit hooks.
When to Use
- CI pipeline gate before human review
- Pre-commit hooks for immediate feedback
- Large PRs where manual review is slow
- Security audits on every commit
Validation
- Review correctly identifies known issues in test diffs
- False positive rate is acceptable (< 20%)
- Review is actionable — each finding has a suggested fix
