A Gerrit code review dashboard that shows what needs attention next.

See which changes Need you, which are Waiting on others, and which can wait. PR Flow keeps Gerrit's vocabulary and Code-Review voting in a desktop queue.

Why Gerrit is different

Gerrit changes need Gerrit-aware review state.

PR Flow keeps changes, patchsets, labels, and relation chains intact instead of flattening them into pull-request terminology.

Changes and patchsets, not branches and force pushes

Successive patchsets remain part of one change, so the queue and review view track the revision you are actually reading.

Review state lives in labels

PR Flow submits a Code-Review vote and reports the value Gerrit accepted. It does not imply that a +1 is the same as a required +2.

Relation chains make order matter

Relation chains expose the order of dependent changes so each layer can be reviewed in context.

The dashboard is a query language

Gerrit remains the source of truth. PR Flow adds an attention-ordered view without asking you to maintain another query.


What PR Flow does with it

Your Gerrit changes, in the same ranked queue as everything else.

Ranked, not queried

No search expression required.

Reviews and replies you owe appear under Needs you; your submitted changes can wait under Waiting on others. Age and unresolved comments stay visible on the row.

  • Smart views: Needs you · Your changes · Waiting on others · Recently done
  • A 4px left border encodes age: fresh, warm, stale
  • Unresolved comment counts on the row itself
review requested 3 unresolved merged

Stacks in the right order

Dependent changes, linked.

PR Flow maps relation chains from trunk to top. Every change also carries a review size — Quick, Medium or Deep dive — read from the change itself, and with Agent Pipelines configured, advisory complexity and risk as well.

  • Stack awareness across dependent changes
  • Review size read from the change, with or without AI
  • Linked Jira, Linear and Trello tickets in context

Review and submit

Read the patchset, stage comments, send the vote.

Read the unified diff, stage line comments and replies, then send Gerrit's Code-Review vote. PR Flow's review submission is separate from Gerrit's Submit change action, and the finish sheet reports the vote Gerrit accepted.

  • Nothing posts until you press submit
  • Gerrit's Submit change action remains yours
  • Every write is recorded in a local audit log you own
approve 1 staged

Mixed estates

Keep Gerrit beside the rest of your review work.

If your week spans providers, Gerrit changes can share the queue with pull requests and merge requests without losing their own terminology.

One queue for both halves

Changes and pull requests are ranked against each other, so “what should I review next?” has one answer instead of one per system.

Credentials stay local

The Gerrit HTTP password is encrypted in your OS keychain. PR Flow does not host it.

Optional AI review

With the relevant agents enabled, summaries, estimates, and inline findings run through your own AI provider.

Questions

Gerrit specifics.

How does PR Flow connect to Gerrit?
Add the Gerrit instance URL, username, and HTTP password in Settings. The password is encrypted in the operating system keychain, and provider requests originate on your machine.
Does it call my changes "pull requests"?
Gerrit rows are changes. PR Flow normalizes providers into one queue so it can rank them together, but it does not flatten Gerrit's model into GitHub's vocabulary on screen — a change carries a Gerrit provider dot and stays a change.
Can I review and vote from the app?
You can read the diff, stage line comments and replies, then submit Gerrit's Code-Review vote. PR Flow reports the vote that posted, including when your permission caps it at +1.
Does it work with an internal Gerrit that is not on the internet?
PR Flow is a desktop app and calls Gerrit from your machine, so it reaches whatever your machine reaches — an instance behind a VPN or on an internal network is fine. Nothing is proxied through a PR Flow server, because there is no PR Flow server in the request path.
We use Gerrit for some repos and GitHub for others.
That is the common case, and the reason this page exists. Gerrit changes, GitHub pull requests, GitLab merge requests and Azure DevOps pull requests are ranked together in one queue, so you stop keeping a separate mental model — and a separate browser tab — per system.
