Hands-on Gitar: SonarQube’s AI code verification agent
Abstract
Gitar is Sonar’s AI code verification agent, complementing SonarQube with an understanding of each change’s context and intent. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll install Gitar as a GitHub App and use it across three pull request scenarios that show how verification goes beyond code review. Gitar verifies every change against your project’s context and rules, catches problems, generates working fixes, and iterates until your CI pipeline passes. Code review is one part of what it does.
You’ll start with Gitar’s out-of-the-box verification, then move into project-specific configuration that teaches Gitar your team’s conventions, and finish with CI failure diagnosis and automated fixes. Everything happens in the browser, so you won’t need to set up any local tools or environments, just GitHub and Gitar. You’ll leave with a working Gitar install, three verified PRs, and a practical understanding of verification instructions, repository rules, and CI failure analysis.
