Code review

Build and test results buried in raw CI logs don’t help reviewers. A developer has to hunt through job output to find out whether the build passed and which tests failed — by which point context has already switched. Aspect Workflows includes a GitHub bot called Marvin that bridges CI results and the pull request. The Aspect CLI streams structured task events — build status, test outcomes, lint findings, suggested fixes — to the Aspect API as the job runs; Marvin consumes that stream and writes the matching GitHub Checks, status updates, PR comments, and suggested-change blocks live.

​

Build and test status

Marvin posts a GitHub status check for each Aspect Workflows job. The check updates as the job progresses, not just at the end, so authors and reviewers see partial results — like the first failing test — without waiting for the entire pipeline to finish.

​

Lint annotations

When the aspect lint task reports a warning or error, Marvin annotates the offending line using GitHub’s Checks API: When the linter can suggest a fix, Marvin attaches the recommendation as a suggestion so the author can apply it with one click:

PR summary

Marvin posts a summary comment to the pull request thread with links to detailed logs and uploaded artifacts. You can jump directly from the comment to the relevant BEP, test logs, or build profile without navigating the CI UI.
