-This agent provides codebase-aware reviews for your GitHub PRs and GitLab MRs. For each diff, the agent fetches relevant context from your indexed codebase and feeds it into a configured language model for a detailed review.
+This agent provides codebase-aware reviews for your GitHub PRs and GitLab MRs. When a review is triggered, the agent runs a two-phase LLM pipeline and posts inline comments on the changed files.
 
 The AI Code Review Agent is [fair source](https://github.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot/tree/main/packages/web/src/features/agents/review-agent) and packaged in [Sourcebot](https://github.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot). To get started, [deploy Sourcebot](/docs/deployment/docker-compose) and follow the configuration instructions below.
 
 ![AI Code Review Agent Example](/images/review_agent_example.png)
 
+# How it works
+
+When a review is triggered, the agent runs the following steps:
+
+1. **MR summary pass.** A single LLM call analyses the full set of changed files to identify cross-file semantic changes, such as renamed functions, changed signatures, removed exports, or behaviour changes with cross-file implications. This summary is passed as additional context into each per-file review.
+
+2. **Per-file reviews.** One LLM call is made per changed file. Each call receives the file's complete diff (all hunks combined), the full file content, the PR title and description, the MR summary from step 1, and any configured context files. Reviews run in parallel, up to five files at a time.
+
+3. **Inline comments.** The agent posts the results as inline review comments on the PR or MR.
+
+If the MR summary pass finds no cross-file concerns, it returns nothing and the per-file reviews proceed without it.
+
 # Language model
 
 The review agent uses whichever language model you have configured in your `config.json`. All providers supported by Sourcebot (OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, and others) work out of the box.
