Short answer

How can I track code review metrics with my AI?

You can ask your agent to pull PR complexity scores and review times for any date range you choose. It uses the get_metrics tool to fetch this data directly from CodeRabbit. You'll get a breakdown of how your review process is performing.

The data you'll receive.

Where your metrics land.

Your agent pulls specific data points from CodeRabbit based on your questions.

DATA

Specific PR scores

The agent pulls complexity and timing data for the exact pull requests you ask about. You get the raw numbers without digging through dashboards.

TRENDS

Time-based analysis

Ask for metrics over a week, a month, or a specific date range. The agent aggregates the data to show how review speeds are changing.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

The AI provides the numbers, but you decide if a spike in complexity requires a team meeting or a change in process. It doesn't make policy decisions for you.

REPORT

Custom summaries

You can ask the agent to format the retrieved metrics into a summary. This makes it easy to paste performance data into a status update or a Slack message.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The agent acts as a bridge between your chat interface and the CodeRabbit API.

  1. Identify the request

    Your agent parses your question to determine if you are looking for complexity scores, review times, or a specific date range.

    get_metrics

  2. Fetch the data

    The agent calls the specific tool to pull the requested metrics from your CodeRabbit account.

    get_metrics

  3. Filter and aggregate

    If you asked for a specific timeframe, the agent organizes the raw data to match those dates.

    get_metrics

  4. Deliver the answer

    The agent presents the final numbers or trends in a clear, readable format in your chat window.
