Tag to talk — When enabled, Optibot will only respond to comments that contain the tag
@optibot. Useful for teams who want manual control over when Optibot engages. -
Guidelines URL — Path or URL pointing to your coding guidelines file inside the repository (e.g.
docs/guidelines/README.md). Optibot uses this for context-aware enforcement during reviews. You can also edit or generate guidelines from the Repository Guidelines page.
Review Fixer
- Enable Review Fixer — Allow Optibot to automatically apply review comment fixes directly to your code when accepted.
Note: Settings are per-repository. If you manage multiple repositories, you'll need to configure each one separately from the repository selector in the Settings tab.
