Every time someone opens a pull request (PR), Revyl can install that PR’s build on a live device, run through the changed flows, and post a verdict — passed, failed, or inconclusive — on the PR. Reviewers get a live look at whether the change actually works before they read a line of code.

What You’ll See

Once it’s on, every PR with a build gets one comment that updates as new commits land (or, if you’ve configured it that way, the same block on the PR description instead). It includes:
  • A verdict per build target — Passed, Failed, or Inconclusive
    • Passed: The agent exercised the change on a device and saw the expected behavior.
    • Failed: The agent observed the app and the change looks broken (or a required check failed).
    • Inconclusive: Nothing useful was observed — for example the device never started, or setup blocked the run before the change could be exercised.
  • A short write-up of what was exercised and what the app did
  • Screenshots of the moments that matter
  • A link to the full session recording — no login required
  • A View proof logs link, so you can watch the device live while the run is in progress

Getting Started

  1. Connect your repo via the Revyl GitHub App
  2. Turn on Proof of Changes through the dashboard or set pr_review.actions.proof_of_changes: true in a .revyl/config.yaml file within your repo
On your next pull request, Proof of Changes runs automatically. If you cannot install the Revyl GitHub App or you use a different SCM, you can use the Proof of Changes via Cursor Cloud guide to set up Proof of Changes without the App.

Authentication and Session Prep

We recommend bypassing authentication so each run starts from a signed-in state. Set this up with the auth_bypass field in your config. To run a script before the device session starts — for example, seeding test data — use the before_session field.

Advanced Configuration

You can set additional configuration parameters from the PR-review settings dashboard, or under pr_review.actions in .revyl/config.yaml. By default, proof runs execute on the Revyl agent. To follow a run as a Cursor Cloud Agent thread instead, connect a Cursor Cloud integration and set proof_harness to Cursor. See the full pr_review.actions field reference on the GitHub integration page.
