wow code reviews in CLI. I'll try but I enabled coderabbit on a few of my open source repos and experience is pretty good it's better than expected, best of the limited number of code review tools I have experience with. Having an extra active "maintainer" (even if ai) just adds a bit of extra confidence.

I use CodeRabbit that helps, but it does not fix the two root issues. I run their free VS code plugin to review local commits first, which catches nits, generates summaries, and keeps me in my editor. The PR bot then adds structure so humans focus on design and invariants. Review state still lives in the forge, not in Git, and interdiffs still depend on history. If Git gets a stable Change-Id, storing review metadata in Git becomes realistic. Until then this is a pragmatic upgrade that reduces friction without changing the fundamental.

I used AI code review tools but agree It would never replace human IMO.

Here is why because of 2 golden rules of Code Reviews in tech why AI can't understand or trained on:

- AI can't see always and remember it’s a human being on the other end of the code and review. - AI could be brutal and will miss the good intent like a senior member who is helping the junior.

It goes without saying that the key benefit of doing code reviews is to make the code better and fix issues.

Interesting tool but the main problem with BlueSky is that I get barely any interactions/reach compared to Twitter/X.
