Overview

Open Code Review is an open-source AI code review CLI tool released by Alibaba Group. It analyzes Git diff, specific commits, branch changes, or entire files, utilizes configured large language models and agent tools to check the repository's full context, and generates line-by-line structured review comments. It aims for higher consistency and accuracy than general coding agents by using deterministic file selection, file batch processing, rule matching, comment positioning, and independent application steps. It provides built-in rules such as null pointers, thread safety, XSS, and SQL injection, and also supports custom rules. It can connect to OpenAI-compatible endpoints, Anthropic, and various cloud model providers, and can be used in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, VS Code, and CI/CD environments. Its primary targets are individual developers, open-source maintainers, development teams, and enterprise CI pipelines looking to validate AI-generated code.
