Continue PR Review Actions

GitHub Actions that provide automated code reviews for pull requests using Continue CLI.

Available Actions

This repository provides a GitHub Action for automated PR reviews:

General Review Action

Provides high-level PR assessment with overall feedback and recommendations.

  • Path: continuedev/continue/actions/general-review@main
  • Trigger: @continue-review
  • Output: Summary comment with strengths, issues, and recommendations

Quick Start

Setting up General Review

name: PR General Review
on:
  pull_request:
    types: [opened, ready_for_review]
  issue_comment:
    types: [created]

permissions:
  contents: read
  pull-requests: write
  issues: write

jobs:
  review:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    timeout-minutes: 10
    steps:
      - uses: continuedev/continue/actions/general-review@main
        with:
          continue-api-key: ${{ secrets.CONTINUE_API_KEY }}
          continue-org: "your-org-name"
          continue-config: "your-org-name/review-bot"

Inputs

The action accepts the following inputs:

Input Description Required
continue-api-key API key for Continue service Yes
continue-org Organization for Continue config Yes
continue-config Config path (e.g., "myorg/review-bot") Yes

Setup Requirements

1. Continue API Key

Add your Continue API key as a secret named CONTINUE_API_KEY in your repository:

  1. Go to your repository's Settings
  2. Navigate to Secrets and variables → Actions
  3. Click "New repository secret"
  4. Name: CONTINUE_API_KEY
  5. Value: Your Continue API key

2. Continue Configuration

Set up your review bot configuration in Continue:

  1. Create a configuration for your organization
  2. Configure the review bot settings
  3. Note your organization name and config path

3. Workflow Permissions

The workflow requires these permissions:

  • contents: read - To checkout and read repository code
  • pull-requests: write - To post review comments on PRs
  • issues: write - To respond to comment triggers

Triggering Reviews

The action can be triggered in two ways:

Automatic Triggers

  • When a PR is opened by a team member (OWNER, MEMBER, or COLLABORATOR)
  • When a PR is marked as "ready for review" by a team member

Manual Triggers

Team members can trigger reviews by commenting on any pull request:

  • @continue-review - Triggers a review

Review Output

The general review provides a structured comment that includes:

  • Strengths: What was done well in the PR
  • Issues Found: Categorized by severity (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
  • Suggestions: Improvement recommendations
  • Overall Assessment: Final recommendation (APPROVE, REQUEST_CHANGES, or COMMENT)

How It Works

  1. Checks out repository code
  2. Fetches PR diff using GitHub CLI
  3. Generates a comprehensive review prompt
  4. Runs Continue CLI with specified configuration
  5. Posts review as a PR comment

Versioning

We recommend using the main branch:

  • @main - Uses the latest code from the main branch

Example:

uses: continuedev/continue/actions/general-review@main

Troubleshooting

Review not triggering

  • Ensure the PR author or commenter has appropriate permissions (OWNER, MEMBER, or COLLABORATOR)
  • Check that the workflow file is in the default branch
  • Verify the Continue API key is correctly set as a repository secret

No review output generated

  • Check the action logs for any errors
  • Verify your Continue configuration is correct
  • Ensure your Continue API key is valid
