Review Assist MCP Overview

review-assist-mcp turns a coding-agent session into an Intent Document describing the request, assumptions, verification, and diff tour. Its MCP server runs on the developer’s machine, where it helps author and validate the document before it is committed with the code. A GitHub App checks coverage on pull requests and presents an anchored review interface for reviewers. Reach for it when AI-generated changes need their lost context restored without sending the session transcript off the developer’s machine.

Primary Use Cases for Review Assist MCP:
  • Capture an AI agent’s assumptions alongside its code changes
  • Validate that an Intent Document covers a pull-request diff
  • Guide reviewers through anchored stops in an AI-generated change
  • Add repository-specific verification questions to code reviews
