- Supported locally
GitGecko can run through a supported local coding agent after that agent is configured and authenticated. Local reviews do not require a GitGecko cloud account.

Three structural advantages — not marketing claims
Run through a supported local coding agent after its own setup is complete. GitGecko adds deterministic analysis and review structure without requiring a cloud account.
Existing-agent execution
ast-grep + regex rules run before the LLM. Deterministic findings are reproducible and do not depend on model quality; model findings remain probabilistic and are shown with provenance.
Deterministic signal before model output
The local and hosted products share one codebase. Hosted plans remain private preview until billing and entitlement verification is complete.
One local and hosted product path
Illustrative output shape
A review is not a paragraph hidden in a comment. It is a navigable artifact with a verdict, impact signal, exact location, evidence, and traceable source.
The handler accepts a delivery before it durably reserves the replay key. A retried webhook can therefore execute the side effect twice.
deliveries.has(id) → execute()@@ handler.ts:42
- execute(delivery)
+ reserve(delivery.id)
+ execute(delivery)Your local or hosted run supplies the real repository, trace, and finding evidence.

Install and authenticate a supported agent first, then let GitGecko detect the available pathway
Run npx gitgecko review in any repository after configuring Claude, Codex, OpenCode, or a supported model provider.
claude, codex, or opencode can be invoked through the detected local pathway. The agent's own authentication remains its responsibility.
Deterministic rules run first (ast-grep + regex), then the LLM. Severity-tagged, trace-backed, zero hallucination on the deterministic lane.
