Overview

This is a Chrome extension which reviews Pull Requests for you using ChatGPT.

Here's an example output for this Pull Request:

codereview_gpt_demo.mp4

Usage

• Navigate to a GitHub Pull Request that you want a review for.
• Click the extension icon
• If you have not already, the extension will ask you to log in at chat.openai.com
• You get code review comments from ChatGPT in the popup window

NB: Running the review multiple times often produces different feedback, so if you are dealing with a larger PR, it might be a good idea to do that to get the most out of it.

FAQ

Q: Are the reviews 100% trustworthy?

A: Not yet, as of 2022. This tool can help you spot bugs, but as with anything, use your judgement. Sometimes it hallucinates things that sound plausible but are false — in this case, re-run the review.

Q: What aspects of the Pull Request are considered during the review?

A: The model gets the code changes and the commit messages in a patch format.

Q: Does the extension post comments on the Pull Request page?

A: No. If you want any of the feedback as PR comments, you can just copy paste the output.

Q: Is this a GPT wrapper?

A: Yes, but

Q: Why would you want this?

A: Plenty of reasons! You can:

- pretend to work while playing games instead
- appear smart to your colleagues
- enable a future skynet
- actually catch some bugs you missed
