Good code reviews are part of team's culture and it's hard to just patch it with an agent. With millions of tools it will be arms race between which one is louder about as many things as possible because:

- it will have higher chance at convincing the author that the issue was important by throwing more darts - something that a human wouldn't do because it takes real mental effort to go through an authentic review,

- it will sometimes find real big issue which reinforces the bias that it's useful

- there will always be tendency towards more feedback (not higher quality) because if it's too silent, is it even doing anything?

So I believe it will just add more round of back and forth of prompting between more people, but not sure if net positive

Plus PRs are a good reality check if your code makes sense, when another person reviews it. A final safeguard before maintainability miss, or a disaster waiting to be deployed.
