Getting started
Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace.
Run ReviewMate: Change Provider from the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) — pick a provider and paste your API key when prompted. Default is Gemini Flash (free).
Open any file, optionally select a chunk of code, and press Ctrl+Shift+R (Cmd+Shift+R on Mac).
Issues appear inline as squiggles and in the ReviewMate sidebar (Explorer panel) grouped by severity.
