Problem Statement

I know there is a similar issue, but that is asking to add an ask mode. This is different, what I would like is to have an option where I can ask about the current change being proposed without having to discard the code. Right now if I want to make a question about code the diff disappears and the code has to be generated again.

Proposed Solution

Having a input field for "ask claude about this change" that will not discard the current change and wont close the diff view.

Alternative Solutions

Opening claude on the browser and copy pasting the issue.

Priority

Medium - Would be very helpful

Feature Category

Interactive mode (TUI)

Use Case Example

For example claude code suggests to do a change of 10 lines of code, and I have a question about one of those lines. I have to write on "tell claude what to do instead" but it would be great to have an extra field "ask claude about this change" so I dont lose the code that I already audited and it doesn't get regenerated.
