Settings
Tenki Code Reviewer exposes a small set of configuration options to control when it runs and how much signal it produces, on GitHub and Cursor Origin.
Open Code Reviewer → Configuration to change these settings. They apply to reviews on both GitHub and Cursor Origin. Select Save Changes to apply your edits, or Reset to discard them.
Every setting applies workspace-wide by default. Use the Scope selector to override any setting for a single repository. See Per-repository overrides.
Who can run reviews
Every member of your workspace can trigger a review — automatically when a pull request is opened or updated, or
manually by mentioning @tenki-reviewer. There are no per-user seats to assign.
Reviews are billed at $1.00 each on both providers and draw from your workspace balance, so what gates reviews is your balance and any spending limit you have set, not a per-user allowance. To keep specific authors from triggering automatic reviews, add them to Ignore Usernames.
Severity Threshold
Which severity levels the reviewer reports: Critical, High, Medium, and Low. At least one level must stay selected.
All four are selected by default, so reviews surface the full range of findings, including minor observations. Deselect lower levels to narrow reviews to higher-severity issues.
Automatic Review
Whether the reviewer runs on new pull requests without being asked.
- On (default): reviews pull requests when they are opened or marked ready for review
- Off: reviews only when someone mentions
@tenki-reviewer
Review on Push
Whether the reviewer reviews again when new commits are pushed to an open pull request. Available only when Automatic Review is on. Each re-review counts toward your usage.
- On: reviews the pull request again after each push
- Off (default): reviews once and doesn't re-run on later pushes
Approve on Clean Review
Whether the reviewer approves the pull request when a review finds nothing worse than nitpicks.
- On (default): approves the pull request when no blocking findings are open
- Off: comments on findings but never records an approval
Comment Detail Level
How detailed review comments and summaries are.
- Concise — Brief findings.
- Standard (default) — Fix guidance.
- Detailed — Full explanations. Each finding also carries a suggested fix (and a suggested code change where one applies), and the summary adds a severity table and the list of files reviewed.
PR Walkthrough
Whether the reviewer adds a walkthrough of the change to the pull request description.
- On: adds a walkthrough to the description and keeps it up to date
- Off (default): leaves the description untouched
Ignore Usernames
Skips automatic reviews for pull requests opened by these authors. dependabot[bot] and renovate[bot] are ignored by default.
- On GitHub, enter usernames.
dependabotalso matchesdependabot[bot]. - On Cursor Origin, enter the author's email address.
Common use cases:
- Bot or automation accounts
- Experimental or sandbox contributors
- Temporary exclusions during testing
