Qodo Builds Context Into AI Code Review with Codex
OpenAI, Monday, November 2nd, 2026
Code review company Qodo built a Codex plugin that adds codebase context and independent review to catch cross-repository bugs.
Qodo, which builds AI code review and software quality tools, uses OpenAI models including GPT-6 Astra, and its plugin in the Codex marketplace brings codebase knowledge, organizational rules and independent review into coding sessions.
Before Codex writes code, the plugin retrieves relevant rules and pull request history, and afterward Qodo reviews the changes and returns findings to Codex before a pull request is opened.
CEO Itamar Friedman says this helps catch P0 bugs across environments of 10,000 or more repositories, including dependencies across Git providers or Kafka-connected services.
He also plans to use OpenAI's Decisions API to pick which review rules apply at each stage, making review faster and cheaper.
