Chat

Interactive AI assistant for discussing code in your pull requests.

GitSniff Chat is an AI-powered assistant that lets you have conversations about your code directly in pull request comments.

How it works

Mention GitSniff in a PR comment to start a conversation. By default, the trigger is @gitsniff, but this can be customized in your settings.

Examples of what you can ask:

  • "Explain what this function does"
  • "Are there any edge cases I'm missing?"
  • "How would you refactor this for better performance?"
  • "What's the security implication of this change?"

GitSniff responds directly in the PR comment thread with context-aware answers based on the code diff and repository context.

Features

  • Context-aware — Chat understands the PR diff, file context, and repository structure
  • Configurable trigger — Customize the mention keyword that activates chat
  • Multiple response styles — Choose between detailed, concise, or conversational responses
  • Repository instructions — Chat respects your custom instructions and coding standards

Configuration

Enable chat and customize its behavior in your settings:

  • Organization level: Dashboard > Settings > Chat
  • Repository level: Dashboard > Repository > Settings > Chat

See Chat Triggers and Response Styles for detailed configuration options.
