tomevault-io CodeRabbit
AI code review tool that catches race conditions, memory leaks, and security vulnerabilities. Integrates with Claude Code for autonomous review-and-fix workflows.
Quick Start: Claude Code Integration
Run CodeRabbit as part of your development workflow:
Implement the feature from the spec, then run coderabbit --prompt-only
in the background and fix any issues found.
Key flags for Claude Code:
--prompt-only- Minimal output optimized for AI agents--plain- Plain text mode (no interactive UI)--type uncommitted- Review only uncommitted changes
CLI Commands
# Install
curl -fsSL https://cli.coderabbit.ai/install.sh | sh
# Authenticate (run once per Claude Code session)
coderabbit auth login
# Review code
coderabbit # Interactive mode
coderabbit --plain # Plain text output
coderabbit --prompt-only # AI-optimized output
coderabbit --type uncommitted # Only uncommitted changes
coderabbit --base develop # Compare against develop branch
Claude Code Workflow
Recommended prompt pattern:
Please implement [feature] and then run coderabbit --prompt-only,
let it run as long as it needs (run it in the background) and fix any issues.
CodeRabbit reviews take 7-30+ minutes. Run in background and check periodically.
Fix prioritization: Fix critical issues first, ignore nits. Run CodeRabbit again after fixes to verify no new issues introduced. Limit to 2 iterations.
