# Configure severity levels and inline comment thresholds in pull requests

<div style={{ display: "flex", alignItems: "center", gap: "6px" }}>
  <Badge color="outline-provider" size="sm" shape="pill" icon="github">GitHub</Badge>
  <Badge color="outline-provider" size="sm" shape="pill" icon="gitlab">GitLab</Badge>
</div>

Findings are categorized by severity. Severity is used both for prioritization and for controlling which findings appear inline in the pull request.

You can configure a severity threshold to limit which findings are shown as inline comments. Example:

```bash theme={null}
inline_comments_severity_threshold = 3
```

| Threshold Value | Inline Issues Shown                                | Description                                           |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| 3 (default)     | Action Required                                    | Blocking or critical issues                           |
| 2               | Action Required, Review Recommended                | Important but non-blocking issues, plus critical ones |
| 1               | Action Required, Review Recommended, Informational | All findings                                          |

* The severity threshold applies only to inline comments
* The summary view always shows all findings, regardless of severity. This helps you keep inline feedback focused while preserving full visibility in the summary.
