The Claude Code team posted how they review code now that Claude writes most of it. What stood out:
- A Claude reviewer checks every PR. After they added it, PRs with real review comments went from 16% to 54%.
- PRs that needed 5 or more review rounds dropped from 8.9% to 1.5%.
- Low-risk changes, like docs, can merge with no human approval once the automated and security checks pass.
- An agent’s approval never counts as a person’s.
- If you prompted the agent, you count as one of the reviewers of its PR.
- One PR went through more than 50 review rounds overnight. Now, after 3 rounds, the reviewer tells the author to step back and rethink the approach. Things you can copy today:
- Run /code-review and /security-review before you open a PR
- Keep a REVIEW.md with what matters in your code, and move comments you kee
- Cap review rounds at about 3 Their Code Review for GitHub PRs is also out of beta now, but only on Team and Enterprise. Source Link How do you review the code Claude writes? I’d like to read what works for you. submitted by /u/emarkosov
