PR-Agent is an AI-powered tool designed to automate the review, analysis, and enhancement of pull requests (PRs) for developers and teams. It aims to streamline the code review process by providing automated feedback, suggestions, and documentation generation, thereby improving code quality and developer efficiency.

How It Works

PR-Agent leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to process code changes and provide insights. Its core strategy involves "PR Compression" to handle varying PR sizes efficiently, converting code diffs into manageable prompts for LLMs. It utilizes a JSON prompting strategy for modular and customizable tools, allowing for easy integration of new features and configurations. The agent supports multiple LLM providers (OpenAI, Claude, Deepseek) and deployment methods (CLI, GitHub Actions, Apps, Docker).

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Can be run via CLI, GitHub App, Docker, or as a GitHub Action.
• Requirements: Requires an OpenAI API key or access to other supported LLMs. Specific LLM versions are not mandated, but compatibility with recent models is implied.
• Usage: Mention @CodiumAI-Agent with a command (e.g., /review) in a PR comment for immediate feedback.
• Documentation: Installation Guide | Usage Guide
