Using AI Reviews

Integrate AI reviews into your pull request workflow:

• When you request an AI review, the changes from your pull request are sent to the AI chat

• A chat tab is automatically opened in the IDE

• After the analysis is complete, you can chat with the AI to ask for suggestions and other details about your PR

• Review AI suggestions directly in the IDE's pull request interface

• Use the chat to get more context and explanations about the AI's recommendations

Customizing AI Reviews

Configure the AI review system to match your team's needs:

• Set the scope and depth of AI analysis

• Define custom rules and coding standards for the AI to enforce

• Adjust sensitivity for different types of suggestions

AI-Generated Comments on Code Diffs

The latest version introduces AI-generated comments on code diffs, allowing you to get intelligent feedback directly on your code changes:

• Automatically analyze code changes and generate relevant comments

• Identify potential issues, bugs, and improvements in the code diff

• Get suggestions for better implementations or optimizations

• Generate comments that can be directly posted to the pull request

AI Draft Comments

The AI can now assist you in creating draft comments for pull request reviews, streamlining your review process:

• Bulk Draft Comments: Ask the AI to analyze and post draft comments on all files changed in the pull request. This provides comprehensive feedback across the entire PR.

• Single File Analysis: When viewing a specific file in the diff editor, you can request the AI to generate draft comments for that particular file only.

• Review and edit the AI-generated draft comments before submitting them as part of your review.

• Use the Submit Comments button to publish all draft comments at once, providing a complete review workflow.
