How it Works / How to Build It

  1. CreatePullRequestURL: This node constructs the URL for the specific pull request using the organization name, repository name, and pull request number provided in the inputs.
  2. GetPullRequest: This node makes an API call to GitHub to retrieve the details of the specified pull request, including the code diff that needs to be reviewed.
  3. GithubReviewerPrompt: This node uses a prompt to instruct an AI model (GPT-4.5) to analyze the code diff and provide feedback based on the guidelines provided in the prompt.
  4. FormatPostGitHubComment: This node formats the feedback generated by the AI into a structured comment that can be posted on GitHub.
  5. FinalOutput: This node outputs the final formatted comment, ready to be sent to GitHub.
