PR Reviews

Review Overview

SlopBuster automatically reviews every pull request, posting inline findings and a quality summary directly on the PR.

Automatic Reviews

Reviews trigger automatically when a PR is opened or updated. SlopBuster analyzes the diff in the context of your full repository, checking for security vulnerabilities, performance issues, reliability concerns, and adherence to your codebase patterns.

You can also manually trigger a review with @slopbuster review or run a comprehensive review of all files with @slopbuster review --full.

Finding Types

Blocker

Critical issues that must be fixed before merge — security vulnerabilities, data exposure, authentication bypasses.

High

Significant issues — performance problems, missing error handling, framework reinventions that increase maintenance burden.

Medium

Improvements worth addressing — code duplication, missing types, inconsistent patterns.

Style

Suggestions for readability and consistency — naming, formatting, documentation.

Review Summary

Each review concludes with a summary that includes:

  • Overall quality score based on the Quality Radar
  • Finding count broken down by severity
  • Praise for well-written code and good patterns
  • Technical debt notes for follow-up items
  • Merge recommendation — block, allow, or schedule follow-ups

Progressive Feedback

SlopBuster limits findings to 1–3 per review by default, prioritized by impact. This prevents review fatigue and ensures developers focus on what matters most. You can adjust this with max_findings_per_review in your configuration.
