Claude GitHub App: Code Review always reports 0 issues, @claude mentions get no response
Resolved 💬 4 comments Opened Mar 12, 2026 by evanwinter Closed Mar 12, 2026
Description
We have the Claude GitHub App installed on our GitHub org with Code Review enabled. The integration appears partially functional — check runs are created — but Code Review never finds any issues and @claude mentions on PRs get no response.
This has been the case across ~8 PRs over the past few weeks.
Setup
- Claude GitHub App: Installed 3 weeks ago
- Permissions: Read access to actions/metadata, read+write access to checks, code, discussions, issues, PRs, and workflows
- Repository access: 6 selected repositories
- Code Review: Enabled (toggle on), set to "After every push" for the affected repo
- Avg Cost column shows $0.00 for the repo in question
Reproduction
- Created a test PR (auction-mobile#761) with intentionally buggy code including:
- Hardcoded API keys (
sk_live_...) and database credentials eval()usage- Memory leaks (missing
useEffectcleanup) - Off-by-one errors (
i <= array.length) ==instead of===- Unchecked
JSON.parse()on nullable values - Missing
keyprops in React list rendering - Blocking synchronous
sleep()withwhileloop - Passwords stored in AsyncStorage
- API keys passed in URL query strings
- No error handling on fetch calls
- The Claude Code Review check run completed in ~36s with:
``json``
{
"conclusion": "neutral",
"output": {
"summary": "No high-confidence issues detected in this change.",
"title": "Code review found no issues",
"annotations_count": 0
}
}
- Commented
@claude review this PRon the PR — no response at all.
What we expected
At minimum, hardcoded secrets and eval() should be flagged. And @claude mentions should get a response.
What we've verified
- App is installed with correct permissions (screenshot confirmed)
- Code Review is toggled on and set to "After every push"
- The repo is in the selected repositories list
- The check run IS being created (so GitHub → Anthropic communication works at some level)
- This is consistent across ~8 real PRs, not just the test PR
Questions
- Is $0.00 avg cost expected, or does it indicate the review isn't actually running?
- Is there an org-level configuration step we might be missing?
- Are webhook deliveries from GitHub reaching Anthropic's servers? (The check run appearing suggests yes, but @claude not responding suggests maybe not for all event types)
Environment
- GitHub org plan: Team
- Anthropic plan: Claude Pro (with Teams features)
- Affected repo: React Native / Expo mobile app (TypeScript)
