# CodeRabbit SDK Patterns ## Overview CodeRabbit does not have a traditional SDK. You interact with it through `.coderabbit.yaml` configuration, PR comment commands (`@coderabbitai`), and the GitHub/GitLab API to process its review output. These patterns show how to automate around CodeRabbit reviews programmatically. ## Prerequisites - CodeRabbit installed on repository (see `coderabbit-install-auth`) - GitHub CLI (`gh`) or GitHub API access via personal access token - Node.js 18+ for automation scripts ## Instructions ### Step 1: Fetch CodeRabbit Reviews via GitHub API ```typescript // scripts/fetch-coderabbit-reviews.ts import { Octokit } from "@octokit/rest"; const octokit = new Octokit({ auth: process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN }); async function getCodeRabbitReview(owner: string, repo: string, prNumber: number) { const reviews = await octokit.pulls.listReviews({ owner, repo, pull_number: prNumber }); const coderabbitReview = reviews.data.find( (r) => r.user?.login === "coderabbitai[bot]" ); if (!coderabbitReview) { console.log("No CodeRabbit review found yet. Review typically takes 2-5 minutes."); return null; } return { state: coderabbitReview.state, // "APPROVED" | "CHANGES_REQUESTED" | "COMMENTED" body: coderabbitReview.body, // Walkthrough summary submittedAt: coderabbitReview.submitted_at, }; } ``` ### Step 2: Extract Line-Level Comments ```typescript async function getCodeRabbitComments(owner: string, repo: string...
