# LLM Code Review CLI

A Python command-line code-review assistant that runs Flake8 against a project
and uses an LLM through an OpenAI-compatible API to explain and prioritize the
findings. The project also includes an interactive, streaming chat interface.

If the directory is omitted, the current directory is reviewed. The command
runs Flake8 locally, converts its output into structured findings, and sends the
finding details and affected source lines to the configured LLM. The resulting
report uses a compact, terminal-friendly plain-text format, lists likely bugs
before style and maintainability issues, and includes a suggested fix for each
kind of finding. Repeated findings are grouped with a count and up to three
example locations instead of being expanded into a Markdown table or a long
list of paths. The report is printed as the LLM generates it.

When Flake8 finds no issues, the command prints `No Flake8 findings.` and does
not call the LLM. Existing Flake8 configuration in the reviewed project is
respected. Virtual-environment directories named `.venv` or `venv` are excluded.
