    Pulldog

    Natic

    Pulldog is a native macOS application designed to simplify and streamline code review workflows by allowing developers to review pull requests from their teams directly within a dedicated desktop client. It connects to both GitHub and GitLab, enabling users to monitor and review pull requests across multiple repositories and accounts from a single interface instead of navigating numerous browser tabs. Pulldog is built entirely using modern Apple technologies and is optimized to integrate deeply with the macOS ecosystem, providing support for features such as Spotlight actions, widgets, and system shortcuts that help developers access and manage code reviews more efficiently in their daily workflow. It aggregates pull requests into a unified environment where users can track changes, review code updates, and monitor pipeline status while maintaining focus on the review process itself.

    LaReview

    LaReview

    LaReview

    LaReview is a local-first, open source code review workbench designed to transform pull requests and code diffs into structured, high-signal review workflows that prioritize understanding over noise. It takes a GitHub or GitLab PR or raw diff as input and uses AI coding agents to generate a clear review plan that organizes changes by flows, risks, and intent, allowing developers to review code in a deliberate and meaningful order rather than scrolling through files. It emphasizes a reviewer-first approach, helping engineers plan their review before commenting, and focuses on delivering actionable feedback instead of producing large volumes of low-value comments. It includes AI-powered planning that analyzes code like a staff engineer, identifying hazards and building structured checklists, along with task-focused review views that group work by logical flows and highlight risk through features like file heatmaps.
