Anthropic adds Code Review to Claude Code to streamline bug hunting

News Room

Anthropic’s AI coding assistant, Claude Code, is getting a new feature designed to help developers identify and resolve bugs faster and more efficiently. Aptly named Code Review, the feature automatically analyzes code changes, flags potential issues, and provides actionable feedback before the code is merged.

Anthropic explains that when a pull request (PR) is opened, Code Review “dispatches a team of agents that look for bugs in parallel, verify bugs to filter out false positives, and rank bugs by severity. The result lands on the PR as a single high-signal overview comment, plus in-line comments for specific bugs.”

The company adds that the multi-agent review system scales dynamically based on the PR. It assigns more agents and deeper analysis to larger or more complex changes, while smaller updates get a lighter review. Based on Anthropic’s testing, the system typically completes an average PR review in about 20 minutes.

The feature was developed to streamline internal operations after Anthropic saw the amount of code generated per engineer grow by 200% over the last year. The company now uses the system on nearly every PR and reports a significant increase in substantive review comments.

Following successful internal testing, Code Review is now rolling out to Claude for Teams and Enterprise subscribers in research preview. While powerful, the tool is considerably more expensive than lightweight alternatives like the Claude Code GitHub Action, and it is billed on token usage.

Premium pricing for in-depth reviews

Anthropic reveals that code reviews with the new tool average somewhere between $15 and $25, scaling with PR size and complexity. To help admins manage costs, the company is offering monthly organization caps, repository-level restrictions, and an analytics dashboard to track PRs reviewed, acceptance rates, and total spend.

Code Review arrives as Claude Code continues to gain traction commercially. The tool’s run-rate revenue has reportedly surpassed $2.5 billion since launch, more than doubling since early 2026. Furthermore, business subscriptions have quadrupled since the start of the year, with enterprise customers now accounting for over half of Claude Code’s total revenue.
