Diffsmith is a native macOS app for reviewing local code changes made by AI coding agents. It opens a repository, reads the uncommitted git diff, and lets you attach comments directly to lines so you do not have to retype file names or line numbers by hand. The workflow is designed for code that is still moving. Diffsmith can re-diff as files change on disk, so you can start reviewing before the agent finishes. When you are done, your notes can be copied back as a prompt or passed to the agent through the app’s optional local MCP server. ## O que Diffsmith pode fazer? ### Review local git changes Open a local repository and review the uncommitted diff before it becomes a pull request. The app is aimed at code an AI agent has already written in your working tree. ### Inline, line-anchored comments Click any line to leave a comment anchored to that exact spot, then send those notes back to the agent as a prompt. A sidebar lists all comments so you can jump between them quickly. ### Optional local MCP workflow Turn on the built-in local MCP server if you want the agent to read your comments directly and reply inside Diffsmith. The setup guide provides snippets for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, VS Code, and Zed. ### Live re-diffing while work is in progress Diffsmith re-diffs as files change on disk, so you can start reviewing while the agent is still working instead of waiting for a finished batch of changes. ### Flexible diff viewing Switch between syntax-highlighted side-by-side or inline diffs, expand context, hide whitespace, and review HEAD or HEAD plus staged changes. Modified, added, deleted, renamed, and untracked files are all shown with per-file stats. ### Review management tools Use a fully customizable prompt template, open multiple repositories at once, mark hunks and files as read, and keep track of Past Comments when code changes after you leave feedback. ## Casos de uso ### Pre-PR agent code review Review code that Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, or another agent has written in your local repository before you turn it into a pull request. ### Review work in progress Leave comments on specific lines while the agent is still editing files, then let Diffsmith re-diff as the work changes instead of waiting for a completed batch. ### Closed-loop feedback with an agent Connect a local AI tool over MCP so it can read your notes and answer them inside the app, reducing copy and paste between review and generation. ### Multi-repository review Open multiple repositories at once and copy comments from one or all of them when you are handling more than one active codebase. ### Custom review setup Use the diff viewer’s inline or side-by-side layout, theme choices, whitespace toggle, and adjustable font size to match your preferred review style. ## Perguntas frequentes ### Does Diffsmith work with Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI coding agents?
