Get CodeRabbit’s AI-powered code reviews directly in your IDE before you commit. Catch bugs, security issues, and code quality problems without leaving your development environment.
This page covers local IDE code reviews. For code reviews on pull requests, see Introduction.

​
Supported editors

The CodeRabbit extension works with VS Code and any editor that supports VS Code extensions:

Visual Studio Code

Full native support for the official VS Code editor

Cursor

Compatible with Cursor’s AI-powered development environment

Windsurf

Use the extension standalone for local development, or combine it with CodeRabbit’s pull request reviews for comprehensive code quality coverage.
CodeRabbit Skills let any skill-compatible AI agent—Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, and others—trigger CodeRabbit reviews using natural language. If your agent supports Skills, this is the easiest way to bring CodeRabbit into your workflow.
