AI Code Reviews with Ollama

AI Code Reviews with Ollama

Review code. Stay local

In recent times I have been looking closely into AI Code Reviews using tools like Github Copilot, which consumes my tokens and uses Azure/Microsoft resources. I have also looked at offerings from Qodo as well as CodeRabbit. All these SaaS tool suites are great, no doubt, but they all cost money. I got to thinking, could I not accomplish the same thing locally? Setup I’ll want to use an Ollama host in my network.

Finally, a real contender...

I had a note to circle back on Zed. I had looked nearly a year go in August 2025 at their preview feature for AI. At the time, Windows wasn’t there (only via Scoop). I also was far more tied to VS Code so I wasn’t really looking at Zed as a possible replacement. Times have changed, and Zed has advanced quite a lot. So let’s give it another go and this time I’ll be looking at it as a real possible replacement for VS Code (especially as my primary machines are all now Linux based).
