Jira + Git AutoReview

Link AI code reviews to Jira tickets automatically

Overview

Git AutoReview integrates with Atlassian Jira to bring context-aware code reviews to your workflow. When reviewing pull requests, Git AutoReview automatically fetches linked Jira ticket details—including requirements, acceptance criteria, and user stories—to provide more relevant feedback. Review comments reference ticket numbers, and you can update Jira status directly from review actions.

Common Pain Points
  • Code reviews lack business context from Jira tickets
  • Manual linking between PRs and Jira issues
  • Reviewers don't see acceptance criteria during review
  • Status updates require switching between tools
Git AutoReview Benefits
  • Auto-fetch linked Jira ticket context
  • AI reviews against acceptance criteria
  • One-click Jira status updates
  • Review comments reference ticket numbers
  • Sprint and epic context in reviews
