AI Gitea Bot – Open Source AI-Powered Code Reviews for Your Self-Hosted Gitea

Ecosystem

Hey Gitea community! :waving_hand:

I’m excited to share a project I’ve been working on: AI Gitea Bot – a fully self-hosted, open-source Spring Boot application that brings AI-powered code reviews to your Gitea instance.

What does it do?

When you open or update a Pull Request, the bot automatically reviews the diff and posts detailed feedback as a review comment. But that’s just the beginning:

  • :magnifying_glass_tilted_left: Automatic PR Code Reviews – Get instant AI feedback on every PR

  • :speech_balloon: Interactive Bot Commands – Mention @ai_bot in any comment to ask questions or request deeper analysis

  • :memo: Inline Review Responses – The bot can reply directly to inline review comments with file-aware context

  • :brain: Conversation Memory – Full session management keeps context across PR updates and follow-up discussions

Choose Your AI Provider

One of the key design goals was flexibility. You can use:

Provider Description
Anthropic Claude Claude 3.5/4 via Anthropic API
OpenAI GPT-4o and other models via OpenAI API (or compatible endpoints)
Ollama Run local LLMs like Llama, Mistral, Qwen – no API key required!

This means you can run the entire stack on your own infrastructure with Ollama if you want complete data privacy.

Autonomous Issue Agent :rocket:

I’m currently working on an exciting feature: an autonomous issue implementation agent. Assign the bot to a Gitea issue, and it will:

  1. Analyze the issue description

  2. Explore the repository structure

  3. Generate an implementation plan

  4. Create a feature branch with the changes

  5. Open a Pull Request automatically

This agentic functionality includes AI-driven validation – the agent can run build tools (mvn compile, npm build, etc.) and iteratively fix errors before submitting. This feature is in active development and will be released soon! A screenshot will follow (only 1 embedded media-file allowed).

Feedback Welcome!

I’d love to hear your thoughts, feature requests, or contributions. The project is MIT licensed and open for collaboration.

Has anyone else experimented with AI-assisted code reviews in Gitea? Would love to hear about your experiences!
