I’ve finished a small project that is rather non-standard for me: it has just a few hundred lines of logic written by me, and most of the code is rather banal functions I picked up from the different articles and doc sheets (you know, those functions that are quite “atomic” like “check if the process is running” or “get the process name by pid by reading /proc dir” or “get a mount point by a filename”)
The code was written in a “ok, let’s experiment if I can do this” approach, so now it is in a complete mess.
So the question is if is there some AI that can do an initial code review for me? I’ve tried GhatGPT, but it was completely banal and useless.
If it’s just a few hundred lines, sure. They work better with smaller context and sometimes they bring up something I didn’t think about. But if your goal is refactoring, I’d work with a code agent, static checkers, and automated tests to do it instead of asking for a code review.
And if your IDE/editor can do something deterministically (e.g. renaming a method and its references), use that instead of asking an AI (or at least an AI with MCP endpoints that do it deterministically too).
