# CodeRabbit - AI Code Review

Fast AI code reviews via CodeRabbit CLI. Free for open source.

## Repositories

Works in any git repo. Free tier covers open source repos. For private repos, ensure CodeRabbit is configured in the repo settings.

## Quick Commands

```bash
cr review --plain           # Human-readable review
cr review --prompt-only     # For AI agents (minimal tokens)
cr review --type uncommitted # Only unstaged changes
cr review --base main       # Compare against main branch
```

## Workflows

| Workflow | Use Case |
|----------|----------|
| [review](workflows/review.md) | Standard code review |
| [verify](workflows/verify.md) | Quick verification for Ralph V-* stories |
| [security](workflows/security.md) | Security-focused review |
| [accessibility](workflows/accessibility.md) | A11y audit for UI changes |
| [secrets](workflows/secrets.md) | Scan for hardcoded secrets/keys |
| [pr-ready](workflows/pr-ready.md) | Pre-PR comprehensive check |

## Output Modes

| Flag | Best For | Token Usage |
|------|----------|-------------|
| `--plain` | Humans reading in terminal | High |
| `--prompt-only` | AI agents (Ralph, Claude) | Low |
| (default) | Interactive TUI | N/A |

## Integration with Ralph

For V-* verification stories, CodeRabbit runs FIRST as a fast pre-check:

1. `cr review --prompt-only --type committed` - Quick scan
2. If issues found → Fix before Claude verification
3. If clean → Proceed to full Claude verification

This reduces Claude API costs and catches obvious issues fast.

## Evaluator Agent (Weighted Quality Gate)

For high-stakes changes, pair CodeRabbit with the **evaluator agent** (`claude --agent evaluator`) for deeper qualitative scoring:

1. CodeRabbit catches structural issues (bugs, security, style)
2. Evaluator scores on 4 weighted criteria: Functionality (20%), Craft (20%), Design (30%), Originality (30%)
3. Score >= 7.0 required to proceed to merge

The evaluator is deliberately adversarial -- it compensates for LLM optimism bias in code review. See `~/Gits/orchestrator/standards/evaluator-grading.md` for the full grading rubric.

**When to add the evaluator gate:**
- Architecture changes or new module introductions
- Agent-generated code (autonomous work products)
- Changes touching >5 files or crossing module boundaries

## Configuration

Optional `.coderabbit.yaml` in repo root for custom rules:

```yaml
reviews:
  language: en
  path_filters:
    - "!**/*.test.ts"
    - "!**/node_modules/**"
```

## Requirements

- CodeRabbit CLI installed: `curl -fsSL https://cli.coderabbit.ai/install.sh | sh`
- Authenticated: `cr auth login`
- Must run from git repository root
