GitLab MR Auto-Review & AI Risk Analysis with Claude/GPT

This workflow triggers on GitLab Merge Request creation or updates, fetching the code diff for AI-powered analysis using Claude (Anthropic) or GPT-4o (OpenAI). The AI assesses risks, identifies vulnerabilities, bugs, and compliance issues, then produces a structured report including risk levels, recommendations, and test cases.

Reports are automatically posted as comments on the GitLab MR and emailed to developers and QA teams, enhancing collaboration and ensuring issues are addressed before merging. Setup involves GitLab API credentials, AI keys, Gmail for notifications, and repository selection.

Ideal for DevOps teams, it provides automated code review, boosts security/compliance, integrates with CI/CD pipelines, and saves manual review time. Use cases include high-velocity development environments, security-focused projects, and teams scaling code quality without additional hires.

Key benefits: AI-driven insights reduce human error, accelerate feedback loops, and maintain audit trails for compliance.
