# Why does Typo need write permission to my code?

Typo necessitates write access to your codebase for the following reasons:

1. **Git Integration for Code Review Feedback:**
   * The application leverages the Git provider’s API to post analysis results directly as comments within Pull Requests (PRs).
   * This facilitates real-time code review and collaboration by seamlessly integrating code quality insights into the existing development workflow.

**2.   AI-Powered Code Autofix and Streamlined PR Creation:**

* Typo incorporates an advanced AI-driven engine for automated code remediation.
* Upon identifying code errors, the system generates and presents optimized code snippets.
* The platform empowers developers with a user-friendly interface that allows them to initiate a new PR with the auto-fixed code with a single click.
