Ask HN: How are you reviewing code with Claude Code?

1 learnedbytes 1 7/13/2025, 10:20:39 PM
I'm looking for solutions to automatically review code changes made by Claude Code before they're finalized. Currently considering setting up a secondary AI model with my coding guidelines that would:

Review each edit/commit from Claude Code Either reject with feedback (which I'd pass back to Claude Code) or approve for repo push Essentially act as a gatekeeper between Claude Code and my actual codebase Before I build this myself, wanted to check if anyone has already tackled this problem or has a better approach. Any existing tools, workflows, or architectures you'd recommend?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

The point of code review imo is to have a human-in-the-loop actually read the code and decide if it makes sense, in the broader context of the application. That means the human knows things that a linter, formatter, automated test-suite, or even AI agent doesn't know about.

If a computer is doing code review, then it's not a code review. It's an automated check. Even if it's done by AI
