AI PR Agent

As explained in "Looks Good to Me"

Qodo's AI component for executing commands against pull requests and generating review-related artifacts.

An AI PR Agent executes commands against pull requests and generates review-related artifacts. Qodo’s /describe command can produce a PR title, change description, impact summary, code walkthrough, and automatic labels. section 13.3

Automating pull-request descriptions

A team can configure /describe to generate only the description, or run it automatically when a pull request opens, reopens, leaves Draft status, or receives a manual review request through GitHub Actions. section 13.3

Use the output example to inspect the generated change type, pull-request description, and walkthrough. section 13.3

Treat generated results as review aids rather than authority: diff-to-prompt workflows using GPT-4 can hallucinate or misunderstand code, and larger pull requests can take minutes to process. section 13.3
