## What it is
reviewdog is an automated code review CLI that integrates with any linter or static analysis tool regardless of programming language. It parses tool output and posts findings as review comments on GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket, filtered to changed lines in the diff.

## Use cases
- post linter results as pull request comments on github
- run static analysis only on changed lines in ci
- integrate any code analysis tool with code review
- filter lint output by diff locally
- automate code review comments in gitlab ci

## When to choose
- you want automated lint feedback directly in pull requests
- you use multiple linters across languages and want one reporting layer
- false positives from static analysis are breaking your CI builds

## When to avoid
- you need a linter itself rather than a tool to relay linter output
- your code host is not GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: linter, code-review, ci-cd, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, version-control, testing
- platform: cli, windows
- tags: static-analysis, github-actions, gitlab-ci, code-quality, diff-filtering, linux, macos, docker
