Build an AI reviewer for your pull requests
In about four hours you build a reviewer that reads a pull request, reports real problems with the exact file, line and reason, and refuses anything it can't back up. You measure it on planted bugs, then put it on every pull request in GitHub Actions, signed in to Azure with no secret stored. Free, and yours to keep.
On GitHub: github.com/labwrights/ai-pr-reviewer · free · code under the MIT licence · Azure runs on your own subscription and is billed to you: under $0.25 for both labs in our runs, and yours depends on your use

The parts AI-review demos skip
Most tutorials stop when the bot posts a comment. This one keeps going, because each of these happened while the labs were built and verified.
- Findings on lines the change never touched, refused before they're posted
- A change too big for one call, split without cutting a hunk
- A catch rate and a false-alarm rate, measured over runs
- GitHub Actions signed in to Azure with no secret stored
- A pull request that tries to talk the reviewer into approving
- The cost of every review, on the review
The labs
2 labs, about 4 h
| # | Lab | What you build | Time | Azure cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | A reviewer that tells the truth | structured findings, validation against the diff, splitting, a measured catch rate | 2 h | ≈ $0.01–0.05 |
| 02 | On every pull request | the reviewer in GitHub Actions: OIDC, inline comments, a cost line, an injection that fails | 2 h | ≈ $0.01–0.05 |
| Total | ≈ 4 h | ≈ $0.02–0.10 |
Azure costs are estimates from our runs. Yours depend on your use, your region and Azure's prices, and they're billed to you. Every lab ends with a teardown of what it created.

Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The labs and the code are free, and the code is MIT-licensed, so you can use your reviewer at work. You pay only for the Azure you use, on your own subscription, and Azure bills you directly. In our runs, both labs cost under $0.25 with a teardown when each lab says so. Your cost depends on your use, and it's entirely yours: Labwrights doesn't pay or refund these costs, from Azure or any other provider (see the terms).
What do I need?
Python basics, git and a GitHub account, and an Azure subscription with billing enabled. The labs install everything else.
How do I start?
The repository is github.com/labwrights/ai-pr-reviewer. Click Use this template there, or on this page, to make your own copy, then follow START-HERE. Lab 2 runs in your copy, so it needs to be yours.
What format is it?
Two step-by-step labs: clear explanations, the code you write, and the real output to expect at every step. Read them here or in your repository.
Can I use the reviewer on my team's repositories?
Yes. The code is MIT-licensed. Measure it on your own code first, the way lab 1 shows.
