What it does
Bitrise can now post build failure information directly in your pull request comments. This would reduce the need to open Bitrise while working on a new PR.
The problem this solves
You’re reviewing code or waiting for CI feedback, a build fails, and now you have to:
- Leave your PR review context
- Navigate to Bitrise dashboard
- Dig through build logs to find the actual error
- Switch back to your PR to continue work
For some of us, this context switching slows down development and makes it harder to address build issues during code review quickly.
How it works
The feature posts comments using either your service credential user account (OAuth) or the Bitrise GitHub App.
Comments contain concise error snippets plus links back to full logs on Bitrise.
Pro tip: Uncheck “build summary” to only get comments on failed builds, reducing noise from successful builds.

When to use it
Enable for projects where you want faster feedback loops:
- Teams doing frequent PR-based development
- Projects with complex build processes that often fail
- When you want build context without leaving GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket
