When it comes to coding, peer feedback is crucial for catching bugs early, maintaining consistency across a codebase, and improving overall software quality.  The rise of “vibe coding” — using AI tools that take instructions given in plain language and quickly generate large amounts of code — has changed how developers work.

The new product, called Code Review, launched Monday in Claude Code.…
