CodeRabbit Agent overview

CodeRabbit Agent is an AI agent that works where your team already communicates. From a Slack message or a Discord channel, you can ask CodeRabbit to investigate your codebase, generate an implementation plan, and open a pull request — without switching to another tool. The Agent understands your repositories, connected tools, and conversation history. It carries context across messages, retains knowledge over time, and lets multiple people steer the same task from the same thread.

​

What the Agent can do

• Investigate — Browse repository context, trace features across merged PRs and issues, and cross-reference data from connected tools like Sentry, Datadog, or Linear.
• Plan — Generate a structured Coding Plan from a conversation thread and hand it off to a coding agent like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.
• Act — After the team agrees on a direction, ask CodeRabbit to prepare and open a pull request that incorporates the full conversation context.
• Automate — Schedule recurring tasks or trigger work from matching messages, so investigations and summaries run without manual prompting.

The Agent can also write Skills: reusable procedures that persist across sessions and guide future runs through established workflows.
