Technical Setup & Integration

GitHub Integration

Continue runs as a native GitHub status check. After authenticating, it hooks into your repository's pull request workflow automatically — no separate CI pipeline configuration is required.

Defining Checks

Checks are written as Markdown files committed directly to your repository. This means:

  • Checks are source-controlled and can be reviewed, versioned, and rolled back like any code change.
  • Teams can propose new standards via pull requests, keeping enforcement decisions collaborative and auditable.

Check Execution

On every new or updated pull request, Continue evaluates the diff against all defined check files. If a violation is detected:

  • The GitHub status check is marked failing.
  • A suggested fix is surfaced inline for the developer.

Built-in Check Templates

Continue ships with example check categories including:

  • Anti-Slop — Flags low-quality or AI-generated filler code.
  • Code Security — Enforces security-related coding standards.
  • Reinventing the Wheel — Detects re-implementation of existing utilities or libraries.

Authentication

GitHub OAuth is required to connect Continue to your repositories. No additional secrets or tokens need to be manually configured.
