Code Review Agents
Trust, but verify.
When you’re vibe coding, you’re moving fast. Sometimes too fast. Code Review Agents act as your “safety net,” checking your code for bugs, security flaws, and logic errors before you merge.
1. Recurse.ml
Recurse.ml is a powerful AI that acts as your “Bug Hunter.”
- What it does: It doesn’t just read the PR; it understands the entire codebase to see if your change breaks something 10 files away.
- Killer Feature: It checks your code against external library documentation to ensure you’re using APIs correctly.
- Best For: Catching regression bugs and “silent breakages.”
2. CodeRabbit
CodeRabbit is your “AI Senior Developer.”
- What it does: Reviews every line of your Pull Request and leaves comments on GitHub/GitLab.
- Killer Feature: It can chat with you in the PR comments. You can ask “Why is this wrong?” and it will explain.
- Best For: General code quality, readability, and security checks.
3. Ellipsis
Ellipsis is “The Fixer.”
- What it does: Instead of just complaining about a bug, it writes the fix and pushes a new commit for you.
- Best For: Developers who want the AI to just “handle it.”
The Workflow
- Agent Builds: “Antigravity, build the login feature.”
- Agent Pushes: “Push this to a branch called
feat/login.” - You Open PR: Click “Create Pull Request” on GitHub.
- Agent Reviews: Recurse or CodeRabbit instantly scans the code.
- You Merge: If the lights are green, you merge.
