Automatize GitHub + Loom com GAIA
Attach Loom walkthroughs to PRs and auto-request video reviews for complex code changes
Complex pull requests are notoriously hard to review from code alone. A PR that refactors a core service, introduces a new architecture pattern, or changes subtle UX behavior is difficult to understand through diff reading, leading to slow or shallow reviews and frequently missed issues. Engineers end up in long Zoom calls just to explain a change that could have been covered in a three-minute Loom video.
GAIA connects GitHub and Loom to make async code review richer and more efficient. When a large or complex PR is opened, GAIA prompts the author to record a Loom walkthrough and attaches the video link to the PR automatically. When a reviewer requests changes, GAIA can suggest recording a Loom to explain the feedback rather than writing a lengthy comment thread. When a Loom documenting a bug is shared with GAIA, it creates the corresponding GitHub issue with the video embedded.
For distributed engineering teams that rely on async communication, this integration bridges the gap between recorded video explanations and the GitHub code review workflow, reducing time-to-review and improving the quality of feedback on complex changes.
5 coisas que você pode automatizar
Tudo que o GAIA pode fazer quando GitHub e Loom estão conectados.
Prompt PR authors to record a Loom for large changes
When a PR exceeds a configured number of changed lines or files, GAIA posts a comment prompting the author to record a Loom walkthrough and providing a direct link to create one, improving review quality for complex changes.
Auto-format Loom links in PR descriptions as previews
When a Loom URL is included anywhere in a PR description or comment, GAIA formats it as a prominent preview card at the top of the PR so reviewers immediately see there's a video walkthrough available.
Create GitHub issues from Loom bug recordings
When a team member records a Loom video documenting a bug and shares it via GAIA, GAIA creates a GitHub issue with the Loom video embedded, the transcript as the issue body, and automatic label assignment.
Request Loom explanations for complex review comments
When a reviewer leaves a complex change request on a PR, GAIA suggests they record a Loom to explain the concern, resulting in clearer feedback and faster resolution than back-and-forth text threads.
Build a Loom walkthrough library from merged PRs
GAIA maintains a collection of Loom walkthroughs attached to merged PRs, organized by date and feature area, so new team members have a video library of how the codebase evolved over time.
Como configurar
Conecte GitHub e Loom ao GAIA em três passos.
- 1
Connect GitHub and Loom to GAIA
Authorize your GitHub repositories and Loom workspace in GAIA's settings. GAIA uses GitHub's API for PR interactions and Loom's API to access and embed video metadata.
- 2
Configure Loom prompts and thresholds
Set the PR size threshold that triggers a walkthrough prompt, define which repositories require video reviews for specific file types, and configure how Loom links are displayed in PRs.
- 3
GAIA makes video a first-class part of code review
GAIA monitors PR creation and updates, prompts for Looms when helpful, embeds video links prominently, and maintains a searchable index of PR walkthroughs for your team.
