What is CodeWolf?
CodeWolf is an open-source AI-powered code review engine that automatically reviews your pull requests and provides meaningful, structured feedback. It acts as your always-on first reviewer, helping you ship faster without compromising quality. It analyzes code diffs, identifies potential bugs, highlights security vulnerabilities, and suggests improvements directly inside your PR workflow. Unlike traditional tools, CodeWolf is:- LLM-agnostic (BYOK) - use your own model
- Fully self-hostable - no vendor lock-in
- Minimal and fast - no bloated dashboards or unnecessary noise
