What it does

AI-Agent Code Review for GitHub Pull Requests Description: This n8n workflow automates the process of reviewing code changes in GitHub pull requests using an OpenAI-powered agent. It connects your GitHub repo, extracts modified files, analyzes diffs, and uses an AI agent to generate a code review based on your internal code best practices (fed from a Google Sheet). It ends by posting the review as a comment on the PR and tagging it with a visual label like ✅ Reviewed by AI. 🔧 What It Does 1. Triggered on PR creation 3. Extracts code diffs from the PR 5. Formats and feeds them into an OpenAI prompt 7. Enriches the prompt using a Google Sheet of Swift best practices 9. Posts an AI-generated review as a comment on the PR 11. Applies a PR label to visually mark reviewed PRs ✅ Prerequisites Before deploying this workflow, ensure you have the following: - n8n Instance (Self-hosted or Cloud) - GitHub Repository with PR activity - OpenAI API Key for GPT-4o, GPT-4-turbo, or GPT-3.5 - GitHub OAuth App (or PAT) connected to n8n to post comments and access PR diffs - (Optional) Google Sheets API credentials if using the code best practices lookup node. ⚙️ Setup Instructions 1.
