chatgpt-code-reviewer

GitHub action that adds ChatGPT code review comments to pull requests. This service uses the GitHub REST API and the OpenAI API to generate suggestions for pull request changes.

Example:

A few notes on what to expect

• This is not intended to replace an actual code review done by a developer. It's meant to spot things humans could miss, provide instantaneous feedback and fix immediately, before a peer has had time to review.
• While in many of the cases we've seen the comments are great, it isn't always right, so be critical and decide for yourself what needs fixing and what does not.

Before you start

By using this repository you acknowledge and approve of the fact that:

• Your code would be sent to OpenAI servers for generating code review suggestions.
• Authors of this github action have no responsibility whatsoever to the consequences of the above, and they would not be liable for anything that happens as a result of using this action.
