Catch conflicts between pull requests before they break your main branch.

Beef scans your open pull requests for intent-level conflicts that pass CI and git checks — but silently break logic when merged together.

Why now

AI writes code in parallel. Review systems still think one pull request at a time.

As coding agents generate more changes at once, each PR can be locally correct while carrying assumptions that collide with another. Beef cross-checks those parallel changes before they converge on main.

TRADITIONAL REVIEW · PR ↔ MAIN

One change at a time

CI, Git, and line review answer one familiar question: Does this pull request work with the current main branch?

AI-ERA REVIEW · PR ↔ PR

Parallel changes, cross-checked

Beef adds the question that parallel development requires: Will these independently generated changes still work together?

Steps

From open-PR overload to the pairs that need to be reviewed together.

Keep scrolling — the demo advances with you.

01 / 04

Connect your repository

Paste a GitHub repository URL. Beef fetches its open pull requests and code changes — no install or CI hook required.

02 / 04

Identify candidate pairs

Static and structural signals narrow the possible combinations to pull-request pairs that may interact.

03 / 04

Analyze intent and evidence

IBM Bob compares each PR’s assumptions, behavior, and supporting code evidence to explain how the changes may affect one another.

04 / 04

Judge and prioritize conflicts

Each pair is classified as a conflict candidate, needs review, merge coordination, or no action, with the most urgent findings shown first.

How it works

Four steps from open-PR chaos to a short, explained conflict list.

Step 1

Connect your repository

Paste a GitHub repository URL. Beef fetches its open pull requests and code changes — no install or CI hook required.

Step 2

Identify candidate pairs

Static and structural signals narrow the possible combinations to pull-request pairs that may interact.

Step 3

Analyze intent and evidence

IBM Bob compares each PR’s assumptions, behavior, and supporting code evidence to explain how the changes may affect one another.

Step 4

Judge and prioritize conflicts

Each pair is classified as a conflict candidate, needs review, merge coordination, or no action, with the most urgent findings shown first.

Cases discovered
Case #1
apache/zeppelin · #5277 × #5151

A Python client and Java server silently disagreed on one API contract.

The new MCP client omits noteId for its default restart flow, while the server change requires it. Git merges cleanly and the existing client suite stays green, but the combined default request is rejected with HTTP 400.

Case #2
python/mypy · #21562 × #21531

Two PRs defined incompatible diagnostics for the same invalid usage.

PR #21562 expects one exact error message for an invalid Concatenate location, while PR #21531 changes that validation path to emit a different message and an additional note. When combined, the implementation no longer satisfies the diagnostic contract encoded by the other PR’s test.
