# How to set up AI code review on GitHub

> Install and configure Kodus for GitHub repositories to get automated AI code review on every pull request.

Setting up Kodus on GitHub takes a few minutes. Once connected, every pull request gets reviewed automatically.

## Steps

1. **Create an account** at [kodus.io](https://kodus.io) or [self-host Kodus](/how_to_deploy/en/deploy_kodus/generic_vm)
2. **Connect GitHub** — install the Kodus GitHub App when prompted during setup
3. **Select repositories** — choose which repositories Kodus should review
4. **Open a PR** — Kodus reviews it automatically and posts comments

## What you get

* Automated reviews on every PR (or on-demand with `@kody start-review`)
* Comments posted directly in the PR with code suggestions
* Customizable rules, severity filters, and suggestion limits
* Business logic validation against linked tasks

## Custom configuration

Drop a `kodus-config.yml` in your repo root to customize behavior per repository. The file overrides web settings automatically.

## Using a Personal Access Token

For private repositories or organizations with stricter permissions, you may need to configure a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT).

For the full setup guide, see [Quickstart](/how_to_use/en/quickstart) and [GitHub App setup](/how_to_deploy/en/platforms/github/github_app).
