Installation

To get started with PR-Agent quickly, you first need to acquire two tokens:

1. An OpenAI key from here, with access to GPT-4.
2. A GitHub personal access token (classic) with the repo scope.

There are several ways to use PR-Agent:

• Method 1: Use Docker image (no installation required)
• Method 2: Run as a GitHub Action
• Method 3: Run from source
• Method 4: Run as a polling server
  • Request reviews by tagging your GitHub user on a PR
• Method 5: Run as a GitHub App
  • Allowing you to automate the review process on your private or public repositories

Why use PR-Agent?

A reasonable question that can be asked is: "Why use PR-Agent? What make it stand out from existing tools?"

Here are some advantages of PR-Agent:

• We emphasize real-life practical usage. Each tool (review, improve, ask, ...) has a single GPT-4 call, no more. We feel that this is critical for realistic team usage - obtaining an answer quickly (~30 seconds) and affordably.
• Our PR Compression strategy is a core ability that enables to effectively tackle both short and long PRs.
• Our JSON prompting strategy enables to have modular, customizable tools. For example, the '/review' tool categories can be controlled via the configuration file. Adding additional categories is easy and accessible.
• We support multiple git providers (GitHub, Gitlab, Bitbucket), multiple ways to use the tool (CLI, GitHub Action, GitHub App, Docker, ...), and multiple models (GPT-4, GPT-3.5, Anthropic, Cohere, Llama2).
• We are open-source, and welcome contributions from the community.

Roadmap

• Support additional models, as a replacement for OpenAI (see here)
• Develop additional logic for handling large PRs
• Add additional context to the prompt. For example, repo (or relevant files) summarization, with tools such a ctags
• Adding more tools. Possible directions:
  • PR description
  • Inline code suggestions
  • Reflect and review
  • Rank the PR (see here)
  • Enforcing CONTRIBUTING.md guidelines
  • Performance (are there any performance issues)
  • Documentation (is the PR properly documented)
  • ...
