BugBot

Describe the Bug

I’m owner of the bugbot integration in our repository, my PRs are correctly reviewed but all the PRs from my teammates are ignored.

Somtimes I was able to run bugbot manually that is not fine but in this specific case bugbot is just ignoring me.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey. Thanks for the report. This isn’t a bug, it’s working as intended for the Individual plan.

The Bugbot docs clearly say:

  • Individual plan: Bugbot runs only on PRs you author
  • Teams plan: Bugbot runs for all contributors to enabled repositories, regardless of team membership

If you need Bugbot to review PRs from all collaborators in the repo, you’ll need the Teams plan. On the Individual plan, it only works for your own PRs.

@Nam_Huynh, are you seeing the same thing on the Individual plan?

@deanrie Got it, how would this work for open source projects? bugbot cannot review external contributors PRs?

Good question. On the Teams plan, Bugbot reviews PRs from all contributors in connected repositories, they don’t need to be members of your Cursor team. That means external contributors in an open source project are covered too.

On the Individual plan, yes, it only works for your own PRs, no matter who contributes to the repo.

If you run an open source project and need automatic reviews for all PRs, the Teams plan will do the job.
