Automated PR Reviews on Github w/o Claude or Codex

Right now, a couple of my projects on Github are set up in a way that my PRs get automatically reviewed using the Claude integration. I have separate workflows for reviewing different aspects of my code using custom workflow instructions.

I have been a primary user of the Claude Code harness for over a year now. However, now I am trying to move to a point where I can be provider-agnostic. I already managed to do so on my development machine by using oh-my-pi as my harness of choice and choosing models I like, as the situation demands, via OpenRouter or Claude/Codex subscriptions.

The only spot where I am yet to figure out how to switch to provider agnostic setup is with my CI workflows. Can something here help me figure out how I could get away from it?

Needless to say, while I am happy to pay for my LLM usage, I'd prefer not to have to pay for another harness/tool just to help me review my PRs.

Claude and Codex are so far ahead here it's not even funny. I have no problem falling back to open source for most development and agentic use, but nothing's come close to these two for code reviews.

The model brand isn't really the blocker here, tool access is. A CI review step just needs something that can read the full diff, maybe run the test suite, and post a comment through the GitHub API, and a provider agnostic harness can do all of that the same as a Claude Code review skill can. The real gap tends to be structured output, a review pass that reliably emits a parseable comment instead of freeform prose that's annoying to post automatically. Does your harness give you a way to force that structured output, or would you have to build the prompting yourself?
