Get Agent Loadout
Code reviewIntermediateDocs-checked, not yet hands-on tested

Review PRs from your terminal

Have your coding agent review, comment on and fix PRs on GitHub.

Starter prompt

Review PR #<number>. Check out the branch, run the tests, and read the diff. Post a review with: blocking issues, non-blocking suggestions, and questions. Don't push changes unless I say so.

Config

terminal

claude mcp add --transport http github https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/ \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_GITHUB_PAT"

Setup steps

  1. Create a fine-grained GitHub PAT.
  2. Add the GitHub MCP server (command above).
  3. Run /mcp to confirm it connected.
  4. Run the prompt on a real PR.

Why this works

The agent can run the code, not just read the diff, which catches more real bugs.

Watch out

A PAT gives the agent whatever scopes you grant. Start read-only.
