🔒 Security & Privacy<a id="-security--privacy"></a>
Gito keeps your source code private by design: it is designed as a stateless, client-side tool with a strict zero-retention policy.
- No middleman: Source code is transmitted directly from your environment (CI/CD runner or local machine) to your explicitly configured LLM provider. If you use a local model, your code never leaves your network. We never see your code.
- No data collection: Your code isn't stored, logged, or retained by Gito.
- Fully auditable: 100% open source. Verify every line yourself.

💪 Done!
PRs to your repository will now receive AI code reviews automatically. ✨
See GitHub Setup Guide for more details.
Alternatively, install Gito locally and run gito deploy from your repository root.
The deployment wizard will guide you through setting up AI-powered code reviews and automatically generate or update the required workflow files. GitHub Actions and GitLab CI are both supported.
For GitLab, see the GitLab Setup Guide, or refer to the GitLab workflow templates for manual configuration.

2. Running Code Analysis Locally<a id="2-running-code-analysis-locally"></a>
2.1 Install Gito locally
Note: If you use uvx, you can skip this step.
When using commands likeuvx gito.bot setup,uvx gito.bot review, uvx will install everything required on demand.
Option 1: Install gito.bot using pip.
Prerequisites:
Run the following command to install the latest stable release from PyPI:
pip install gito.bot
Troubleshooting:
pip may also be available via CLI aspip3depending on your Python installation.
To install from repository source / specific branch:
pip install git+https://github.com/Nayjest/Gito.git@<branch-or-tag>
Option 2: Windows Standalone Installer
Download the latest Windows installer from Releases.
The installer includes:
- Standalone executable (no Python required)
- Automatic PATH configuration
- Start Menu shortcuts
- Easy uninstallation
2.2 Configure LLM connection
The following command will perform one-time setup using an interactive wizard.
You will be prompted to enter LLM configuration details (API type, API key, etc).
Configuration will be saved to ~/.gito/.env.
gito setup
Alternatively, if you have uvx installed, you can run the setup command via uvx:
uvx gito.bot setup
Troubleshooting:
On some systems,gitocommand may not become available immediately after installation.
Try restarting your terminal or runningpython -m gitoinstead.
2.3 Perform your first AI code review locally
Step 1: Navigate to your repository root directory.
Step 2: Switch to the branch you want to review.
Step 3: Run the following command:
gito review
Note: This will analyze the current branch against the repository main branch by default.
Files that are not staged for commit will be ignored.
Seegito --helpfor more options.
