# AGENTS.md — River Review integration

## Code review

Before finalizing any code change, run River Review to catch issues:

```bash
river run . --reviewers auto
```

If the `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` environment variable is not set, use dry-run mode:

```bash
river run . --dry-run
```

## When to invoke

- After implementing a feature or fix, before committing.
- When the user explicitly requests a review.
- Before opening or updating a pull request.
