# AsyncReview
**Agentic Code Review for GitHub PRs and Issues**
AsyncReview uses Recursive Language Models (RLM) to go beyond simple diff analysis. It autonomously explores your repository, fetches relevant context, and verifies its findings in a secure sandbox before answering.

## Why AsyncReview?
Most AI review tools only look at the lines changed in a Pull Request (the diff). This leads to shallow feedback and hallucinations about files that don't exist. AsyncReview takes a different approach.
| Other Code Review Tools | AsyncReview |
|-------------|-------------|
| **Limited Context:** Only sees the git diff | **Full Context:** Can read any file in the repo to understand dependencies |
| **Static Analysis:** Guesses how code works | **Agentic Analysis:** Can execute search queries and run verification scripts |
| **Hallucinations:** Invents library methods | **Grounded:** cites existing file paths and lines |
| **Simple Prompts:** One-shot generation | **Recursive Reasoning:** Thinks, plans, and iterates before answering |
## Quick Start
No installation required. Run directly with npx:
```bash
npx asyncreview review --url https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123 -q "Check for breaking changes"
```
OR
```bash
npx skills add AsyncFuncAI/AsyncReview
```
## Usage
### Public Repositories
For public repos, you only need a Gemini API key.
```bash
export GEMINI_API_KEY="your-key"
npx asyncreview review --url https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123 -q "Review this"
```
### Private Repositories
For private repos, you also need a GitHub token.
1. **Set your GitHub Token** (or use the `--github-token` flag)
```bash
# If you have GitHub CLI installed
export GITHUB_TOKEN=$(gh auth token)
# Or manually set it
export GITHUB_TOKEN="ghp_..."
```
2. **Run the review**
```bash
npx asyncreview review --url https://github.com/org/private-repo/pull/456 -q "Security audit"
```
## Configuration
**Required:**
- **Gemini API Key:** Get one from Google AI Studio. Set as `GEMINI_API_KEY`.
**Optional:**
- **GitHub Token:** Required for private repositories to access file contents. Set as `GITHUB_TOKEN`.
## For Agents (Claude, Cursor, OpenCode, Gemini, Codex, etc.)
AsyncReview is designed to be used as a **Skill** by other agentic providers. It allows them to "see" and "reason" about codebases they don't have local access to.
### Install via Skills CLI
Run this command to automatically add AsyncReview to your agent's capabilities:
```bash
npx skills add AsyncFuncAI/AsyncReview
```
This works with [vercel/skills](https://github.com/vercel/skills) compatible agents.
### Manual Setup
If you prefer manual configuration, point your agent to the skill definition file:
`skills/asyncreview/SKILL.md`
## Advanced Setup
To run the full backend server or web interface locally, please see the [Installation Guide](INSTALLATION.md).
