3x Fewer False Positives
Optibot reviews now raise 3x fewer false positives and still catch the real issues. Plus shared rules in CLI and MCP agent mode.
Optibot's reviews now spend your attention on real problems, not on code you wrote on purpose. And your organization's shared review rules now follow your coding agent into the CLI and MCP server.
Improvements
Less noise, same catches
Optibot now raises far fewer findings that are wrong or that point at code you wrote on purpose.
- Asks when intent is unclear. If code might be deliberate, Optibot asks instead of calling it a bug, and doesn't block the merge.
- Only what it can back up. Findings stay tied to your code, not guesses.
- Respects your PR's scope. Work you've deferred isn't flagged as missing.
- Applies your guidelines where they fit.
This covers pull and merge request reviews on GitHub and GitLab, and reviews in VS Code and Cursor. Nothing to turn on.
Shared Review Rules in agent mode
Agent mode reviews from the CLI and MCP server now apply the shared review rules mapped to the repository, the same ones its pull request reviews use. A finding that enforces a rule links to the rule file, and the review summary lists the rules it applied.
It's on by default. CLI 0.11.0 and MCP server 1.7.0 find the repository from its git remote, so rules also apply in renamed folders and worktrees.
Reliability
- Shared rules mapping handles organizations with hundreds of repositories.
- Repositories Optibot can't access are marked as skipped, and the rest of the organization maps as usual.
- Re-run mapping picks up where an interrupted run left off.
