Walkthrough

A note was added to the Quickstart documentation, immediately after the instruction to click "Install & Authorize" when adding CodeRabbit to a GitHub repository. The note explains why CodeRabbit requests read and write access, outlines the features enabled by these permissions, assures users that their code is never stored, and provides a link to the CodeRabbit Trust Center for further information. No other documentation or code changes were introduced.

Changes

Poem

A hop to the docs, a skip to the note,
Now permissions are clear, in bold we wrote.
No code is stored, your trust is key,
Check the Trust Center for transparency!
With every new change, we’re upfront and bright—
CodeRabbit’s here to make things right.

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Support

Need help? Create a ticket on our support page for assistance with any issues or questions.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
