Using a self-hosted GitHub Enterprise Server? Follow the GitHub Enterprise setup guide.

Before you begin

  • A GitHub account with access to the organization and repository you want reviewed.
  • A repository where you can open a pull request.
Your organization may require an owner to approve the GitHub App installation. See GitHub’s installation requirements.

Connect your organization

1

Sign in with GitHub

Open the CodeAnt AI dashboard and choose GitHub to sign in.
2

Connect your organization

Follow the onboarding prompts to connect the GitHub organization you want to use.
3

Choose your repositories

Select the repositories CodeAnt AI should access. Start with one repository so you can try a review before connecting more.

Get your first review

Open a pull request in a connected repository. CodeAnt AI reviews new pull requests automatically and posts its feedback directly on the PR. When CodeAnt finds an issue, its inline comment explains the problem, its severity, and a suggested fix. See how to read a review comment for an example. To review an existing PR or rerun a review, post this comment on the pull request:
CodeAnt AI re-analyzes the latest changes and posts updated review feedback.
After receiving a review, try asking CodeAnt a question about a finding or the changes in your PR.

Troubleshooting

Confirm that you signed in with a GitHub account that belongs to the organization. If GitHub asks for installation approval, ask an organization owner to approve the request.
Check that the CodeAnt AI GitHub App has access to the repository you want reviewed. If your installation covers selected repositories, include this repository in that selection. See GitHub’s installation guide.
Check that the PR belongs to a repository selected during onboarding, then post @codeant-ai: review on the PR. If a review still does not appear, contact CodeAnt support with the repository name and PR URL.
