DashboardGet started

Quickstart

OpenReview reviews pull requests using an index of your whole repository. It runs on your own infrastructure: a Next.js web app plus a Convex backend.

Run it locally

You need Node.js 24 and pnpm 11.

pnpm install
CONVEX_AGENT_MODE=anonymous pnpm exec convex dev --once
pnpm setup:local
pnpm backend
# in another terminal
pnpm dev

Then open http://localhost:3000. pnpm setup:local generates the session, service and webhook secrets and copies them to the local backend without printing them.

Connect a repository

  1. Register a GitHub App. See GitHub App setup. Other providers are listed under Providers.
  2. Sign in, create a workspace, and install the app on the repositories you want reviewed.
  3. Enable a repository. OpenReview indexes its default branch: files, symbols, the call/import graph and optional embeddings.
  4. Open a pull request. The review appears as a summary comment and inline findings, and on the dashboard.

Choose a model

Set LLM_PROVIDER (anthropic, openai or compatible) and LLM_API_KEY on the backend. Optionally set LLM_MODEL and per-task overrides. Every model call counts against the workspace inference budget.
