[FEATURE] code REVIEWS that do not suck
Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
- [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)
Problem Statement
I want Claude to help me review code both - code that it autonomously generated, as well code written (or generated) by colleagues. Here is a prompt that I submitted today:
Ok, can you help me review our changes piece by piece? I want to see the
code and a very short explanatio nwhat it does below each piece. Can you do
that?
What I've got in response was a long text with the list of changes, and code was not very well color coded.
What I expected or desired to see was a chunk of diff with an explanation of what it did and ask me whether to amend it or continue to the next chunk.
Why do I want this: code review is very boring but brain intensive work. Now with Claude a lot more code is generated and which makes my life worse for having to review more code. I'd like Claude to also help me review its own code that it generated under my instructions as well help me review pull requests of other team members.
I believe such feature will be appreciated by many.
Proposed Solution
Implement chunk by chunk review feature, where one can amend different chunks and then the agent will continue with the rest.
Alternative Solutions
Whatever will make reviewing less of a torture, I'm open to other solution.
