Graphite reviewer helps reduce your team's overall time-to-merge by providing your developers with immediate, actionable feedback on all of their pull requests.

Enabling Reviewer

Before Graphite Reviewer can start leaving comments, it must be enabled for a repository.

To enable Reviewer, navigate to the Reviewer settings page and click "Enable Reviewer".

After you click "Enable Reviewer", you'll be prompted to select the repositories that you want to enable Reviewer on. If you do not see the expected repositories, make sure that they are synced with Graphite.

Review comments

Once you have enabled Reviewer, it will automatically start analyzing any new pull requests in the repository. Whenever it finds a bug, it will leave a comment directly on the pull request calling out the bug and suggesting potential fixes.

In the right-hand panel of the PR page you can see whether Reviewer has previously run, is currently running, or won't run (for example, because the PR is too large).

The feed

After the reviewer has been running for a few days, you'll start to see comments aggregate in your feed.

Accessible from the right hand panel of the Reviewer settings page, the feed shows you all the comments that the reviewer has left in your selected repositories.

How Graphite Reviewer works

Under the hood, Reviewer watches for every new pull request. When it detects a new pull request, it gathers other relevant information from your repository (including similar past pull requests, additional files that might be relevant, and past comments) and passes that information to a sequence of large language models to determine if there are any bugs, and how those could be fixed.
