Summary

Continue is a tool that runs AI-powered code quality and security checks on every pull request. It works by defining checks as markdown files in a .continue/checks/ directory, where each check has a name, description, and prompt that tells the AI what to look for. These checks appear as GitHub status checks - green if the code passes, red with suggested fixes if issues are found. The tool helps developers automatically review code for security issues like hardcoded secrets and missing input validation.
