Welcome to Robin
Free AI code reviews for every pull request. Install in minutes with your own API key.
Robin is a free, open-source GitHub Action that reviews pull requests with AI. You bring your own API key, including free OpenRouter models, and Robin posts findings like a teammate left comments.
Quick start
- Run the installer from your project root:
npx robin-review
No npm? Install with curl instead:
curl -fsSL https://robinreview.dev/install.sh | bash
Both commands configure the Git repository you are currently in. The workflow and secrets are per repository; the companion agent skill is installed globally once per machine.
- Add three secrets in Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions:
| Secret | Free OpenRouter value |
|---|---|
LLM_API_KEY | Your key (sk-or-...) |
LLM_BASE_URL | https://openrouter.ai/api/v1 |
LLM_MODEL | openrouter/free |
- Commit, push, and open a pull request. Your first review should land within a few minutes.
