The useful distinction

CodeRabbit: an AI code reviewer that posts pull request summaries and line comments on GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps and Bitbucket, learns from your team's replies, and can push fixes.

Graphite: a GitHub code review platform with stacked pull requests, a merge queue, AI reviews and Graphite Chat, with Cursor Cloud Agents on the pull request page. Cursor agreed to acquire it on 19 December 2025.

Decision

When each side wins

CodeRabbit wins when

  • Your repositories are on GitLab, Azure DevOps or Bitbucket, including self-managed versions.
  • You want a mature line-comment UX that learns from your replies.
  • Your open-source project wants free reviews forever.

Graphite wins when

  • You want the whole review workflow: stacked pull requests, a merge queue and a review inbox, not only a bot.
  • You want SOC 2 Type II with source code kept off the vendor's servers for the core app.
  • Your team already pays for Cursor and wants Cloud Agents one click from the pull request.

Rush

Where Rush sits

Rush can sit beside either: an automation on pull_request.opened starts an agent that reads, runs and comments.

Honest limits

Skip Rush if

  • Rush runs three agents: Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode. It does not host an agent you wrote yourself.
  • Repositories come through the Rush GitHub App. A GitLab or Bitbucket repository cannot be a run's repository yet.
  • There is no self-hosted or customer-VPC deployment, and we do not publish a compliance report today.
  • Compute is metered. Free includes 5 agent-hours a month and Pro 40, each with a weekly ceiling.
  • You review the pull request. Rush does not merge for you.
