CodeRabbit is a plugin that brings AI-assisted code review into Claude Code by connecting to the CodeRabbit service. Reviews are context-aware, using AST parsing and codegraph relationships to understand dependencies across files, and the tool also reads CLAUDE. md and project coding guidelines to align feedback with team standards. It is intended for use after writing or modifying code, before commits, and when working on complex or security-sensitive logic, returning specific findings with fixes that can be applied right away. According to the item metadata, using the plugin itself carries no cost.
About the service
CodeRabbit is an external AI-powered code review service that connects to git repositories (including pull requests), IDEs, and CLI environments to analyze code changes. Per the homepage, it has been installed across millions of repositories and is used by a large base of paying and free customers, offering pre-merge checks, review learnings based on user feedback, and integrations with external systems such as Jira, Linear, and MCP servers. The Claude Code plugin acts as a client that requires installing and authenticating the CodeRabbit CLI to reach this backend service.
