CodeRabbit Core Workflow A: Automated PR Review

Overview

The primary CodeRabbit workflow: a developer opens a PR, CodeRabbit automatically analyzes the diff, posts a walkthrough summary and line-level comments, and the developer addresses feedback. This skill covers configuration, review profiles, path instructions, and the full review lifecycle.

Prerequisites

CodeRabbit GitHub App installed (see coderabbit-install-auth)
.coderabbit.yaml in repository root
At least one PR-capable branch

Instructions

Step 1: Configure the Review Pipeline

# .coderabbit.yaml - Production-ready configuration
language: "en-US"
early_access: false

reviews:
  profile: "assertive"              # chill = less feedback, assertive = more thorough
  request_changes_workflow: true    # CodeRabbit marks review as "changes requested" for issues
  high_level_summary: true          # Post a walkthrough comment summarizing all changes
  high_level_summary_in_walkthrough: true
  review_status: true               # Show review progress status
  collapse_walkthrough: false       # Keep walkthrough expanded
  sequence_diagrams: true           # Generate control flow diagrams
  poem: false                       # Disable poems in review summary

  auto_review:
    enabled: true
    drafts: false                   # Skip draft PRs
    base_branches:
      - main
      - develop
    ignore_title_keywords:
      - "WIP"
      - "DO NOT MERGE"
      - "chore: bump"

  path_filters:
    - "!**/*.lock"
    - "!**/*.snap"
    - "!**/generated/**"
    - "!dist/**"
    - "!**/*.min.js"
    - "!vendor/**"

  path_instructions:
    - path: "src/api/**"
      instructions: |
        Review for: input validation, proper HTTP status codes, auth middleware usage,
        error response format per RFC 7807. Flag missing error handling.
    - path: "src/db/**"
      instructions: |
        Review for: parameterized queries (no string concatenation), transaction boundaries,
        proper connection cleanup, index usage. Flag N+1 query patterns.
    - path: "**/*.test.*"
      instructions: |
        Review for: assertion completeness, edge case coverage, proper async handling.
        Do NOT comment on test naming conventions or import order.
    - path: ".github/workflows/**"
      instructions: |
        Review for: pinned action versions (use SHA not tag), no secrets in logs,
        timeout-minutes on all jobs, OIDC for cloud auth.

finishing_touches:
  recipes:
    - name: "fix-imports"
      description: "Sort and organize imports"
      instructions: |
        Sort all imports alphabetically. Group: external packages first,
        then internal modules, then relative imports. Remove unused imports.

    - name: "tighten-types"
      description: "Replace any with specific types"
      instructions: |
        Replace all `any` types with proper TypeScript types.
        Use `unknown` for truly unknown values. Add type guards where needed.

# Trigger recipes in a PR comment:
@coderabbitai run fix-imports

Issue	Cause	Solution
Review takes 15+ minutes	PR has 1000+ changed lines	Split into smaller PRs
No review posted	PR targets non-configured branch	Add branch to `base_branches`
Reviews on generated files	Missing path_filters	Add `!/generated/` to path_filters
Too many nitpick comments	Profile set to assertive	Switch to `chill` for experienced teams
Config changes not applied	YAML syntax error	Run `@coderabbitai configuration` to verify
Review on draft PR	`drafts: true` in config	Set `drafts: false` to skip drafts
