AI Analysis

●MidCozy

Wrapper around pierre's diff packages with jj support but no novel rendering technique.

Strengths

•Jujutsu (jj) VCS support is a nice touch for early adopters of that workflow.
•Auto-exiting server when no browser sessions active is thoughtful resource management.

Weaknesses

•Built entirely on pierrecomputer's packages with no original diff rendering work.
•GitHub's native diff viewer and diffshub already handle PR review workflows.

Post Description

as a big TUI user, i absolutely enjoy hunk https://github.com/modem-dev/hunk. tho when it comes to reading diffs i still prefer GUI somehow

made a local version of @pierrecomputer's diffshub.com for reviewing codes, with jj support and review copying to directly send to agents :D

huge shoutout to @bentlegen for the inspiration on agent review, and pierre team for the amazing work!

try it with `npx @baggiiiie@yadiff $GitRef/$JJRevision`

beyond local diff viewing, it supports GitHub PR fetching too. so you can test it on your PR, or test it on bun's rust rewrite PR `npx @baggiiiie@yadiff https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/30412`

any feedback is appreciated!
