Short answer

How can I use AI to review my code?

Your agent uses Mistral's coding models to read your files and explain what the code is doing. It identifies logic errors and writes new code to fix them. You get a breakdown of how the agent handles your files.

Where every review lands.

Outcomes of an automated review

The AI processes your files and delivers specific results based on what you ask for.

LOGIC

Clearer code understanding

The agent reads through your functions to explain exactly how the logic flows. You get a plain English summary of what the code actually does.

BUGS

Identified logic errors

The agent scans for edge cases and broken logic. It points out where your code might fail or behave unexpectedly.

FIXES

Ready to use patches

When it finds a bug, the agent writes the corrected version for you. You can then compare the new code against your original.

HUMAN

Final manual check

The AI provides the analysis and the drafts, but you must review the changes. You decide if the suggested fixes are safe to merge.

The workflow

What your AI does when the code arrives.

The agent acts as a second pair of eyes on your codebase.

  1. Analyze logic

    The agent reads your source files to build a mental model of your application. It breaks down complex functions into understandable steps.

    explain_code

  2. Find errors

    The agent looks for logical inconsistencies or missing checks in your existing files.

    explain_code

  3. Draft fixes

    Once a problem is found, the agent writes a new version of the code to resolve the issue.

    generate_code

  4. Verify changes

    The agent can write updated logic to replace the old, broken snippets.

    generate_code
