Which repositories can ReviewNB access?

What GitHub permissions do you need?

  • Read repository contents to fetch notebooks and compute diff

  • Read repository metadata to fetch list of commits and PRs

  • Read-Write access to pull requests to read & write PR comments

How can we trust ReviewNB with our private repositories?

  • ReviewNB does NOT store any repository contents. Notebooks / Diffs / Comments / Commits / PRs, none of these are stored in ReviewNB

  • Anytime you open a diff, we make API calls to GitHub to fetch the data. We process the diff and serve it to your browser in real time

  • Any comments you write are also directly posted to GitHub & not stored in ReviewNB

What about GitHub access token security?

  • GitHub access tokens are stored with AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption

  • Every time you logout and login, we generate a new GitHub access token. That way, your tokens are automatically rotated and the old one becomes defunct

Still, how can we trust ReviewNB?
