DiffPal Review

DiffPal Review adds a pipeline task that runs DiffPal pull request review in Azure DevOps.

DiffPal is a diff-first AI review tool. It collects the pull request diff, delegates review to the configured provider, writes structured findings, and can publish Azure DevOps pull request feedback.

Usage

steps:
  - task: DiffPalReview@1
    inputs:
      profile: ci
      feedback: balanced
      gate: true
    env:
      SYSTEM_ACCESSTOKEN: $(System.AccessToken)
      OPENAI_API_KEY: $(OPENAI_API_KEY)

The task installs the configured DiffPal CLI package, resolves pull request base/head revisions from Azure Pipelines variables when inputs are omitted, and passes provider credentials through environment variables.

Requirements

• Enable scripts to access System.AccessToken for pull request publishing.
• Add the provider credential required by your DiffPal profile, such as OPENAI_API_KEY.
• Keep DiffPal configuration in .config/diffpal/config.yaml or pass a custom configDir.
