Optibot
Run AI-assisted code review on local diffs, branch comparisons, and patch files directly from your coding agent via Optibot MCP.
Overview
Optibot is an MCP server for the Ship phase that performs AI code review on local changes, branch diffs, and patch files inside your assistant.
What is this MCP server?
- AI code review for assistant-driven workflows (Optibot title in server metadata)
- Review local changes, branch diffs, and patch files
- npm package @optimalai/optibot-mcp at version 1.4.1 with stdio transport
- Optional OPTIBOT_API_KEY (optk_...) or browser OAuth via login tool
- Website https://getoptimal.ai for account and product context
- npm package: @optimalai/optibot-mcp version 1.4.1
- Transport: stdio
- Optional env: OPTIBOT_API_KEY (secret, optk_ prefix)
What problem does it solve?
Solo builders skip thorough review because diff critique is tedious outside the agent session where code was written.
Who is it for?
Indie developers who want stdio MCP code review with npm install and optional API key auth while shipping frequently.
Skip if: Teams that require on-prem only review with no Optibot account, or workflows with no Node/npm MCP host.
What do I get? / Deliverables
You get MCP-triggered AI reviews on real git changes and patches before merge without leaving Claude Code or Cursor.
- AI-generated review feedback on local changes and branch diffs
- Patch-file review results inside agent sessions
- Repeatable pre-merge review step in your ship checklist

How it compares
