claude-code-action

Claude Code Action is a GitHub Actions integration that embeds Claude Code directly into pull request and issue workflows, allowing developers to trigger AI-assisted code review, implementation, and Q&A by mentioning @claude in comments or assigning issues. The action runs entirely on the user's own GitHub runner and supports authentication via Anthropic's direct API, Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, and Microsoft Foundry, giving teams flexibility over where API calls are routed. It detects execution context automatically, switching between interactive assistant mode and automation mode without manual configuration. Notable features include dynamic checkbox-based progress tracking that updates in real time as tasks complete, and structured JSON outputs that feed directly into downstream GitHub Actions steps for complex pipeline automation. The quickstart path runs through the Claude Code terminal command `/install-github-app`. The tool primarily benefits engineering teams wanting to automate PR reviews, issue triage, documentation updates, and security-focused code analysis without managing a separate bot infrastructure.
