SealCode

Smart Code Review with AI-Powered Insights

💡 Motivation

Code reviews are essential for maintaining code quality, but traditional review workflows have friction:

Context switching: Comments in PRs are disconnected from your editor
Lost insights: Review notes scattered across tools get forgotten
Manual follow-up: No easy way to validate architectural decisions with AI

SealCode brings code review directly into VS Code, letting you annotate code in context and leverage AI tools to validate your review comments—turning observations into actionable insights.

✨ Features

🤖 AI-Powered Review

Send comments to AI tools (Claude, Copilot, OpenCode, Amp) for architectural validation, security analysis, and refactoring suggestions.

📝 Prompt Templates

Built-in templates for review, security, refactor, and simplify workflows. Create custom templates with and placeholders.

🏷️ Categorized Comments

Organize notes with 5 categories: Bug, Question, Suggestion, Nitpick, and Note. Each with distinct colors for quick identification.
