CodeRabbit Multi-Environment Setup

Overview

Configure CodeRabbit review behavior based on branch targets and environments. CodeRabbit reads .coderabbit.yaml from the PR's base branch, allowing different review configurations per branch. This enables stricter reviews for production branches, relaxed reviews for development, and custom instructions per environment.

Prerequisites

• CodeRabbit GitHub App installed on repository
• Branch strategy defined (e.g., GitFlow, trunk-based, GitHub Flow)
• .coderabbit.yaml committed to each relevant branch

How Branch-Based Config Works

Developer opens PR: feature/auth → develop
  CodeRabbit reads: .coderabbit.yaml from develop branch
  Profile: "chill" (development, quick iteration)

Developer opens PR: develop → main
  CodeRabbit reads: .coderabbit.yaml from main branch
  Profile: "assertive" (production, thorough review)
