Original: Every Commit in My Repo Gets Reviewed by a Second AI. Here's What Actually Changed.

Short summary

A developer shares lessons from having a second AI model (Codex) review every commit via a CLAUDE.md instruction. The key insight is that AI review rarely catches logic bugs but excels at spotting drift and inconsistency. The real value comes from triaging every comment into three buckets: fix immediately, ask a human first, or skip silently — which prevents review fatigue.

  • AI code review via CLAUDE.md catches drift and inconsistency more than logic bugs
  • Triage every comment into fix-it, ask-first, or skip-silently buckets to avoid fatigue
  • Concrete examples from nodejs/undici and vercel/eve PRs illustrate each bucket

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.

Is this a good recommendation for you?
