@ryan_nookpi/pi-extension-diff-review

A native diff review extension for pi.

It opens a dedicated review window for the current repository so you can inspect the branch diff, review individual commits, browse all changed files, and collect feedback before sending it back into the editor.

Install

pi install npm:@ryan_nookpi/pi-extension-diff-review

What it does

• registers the /diff-review command
• opens a native review window for the current git repository
• supports branch, per-commit, and all-files review scopes
• detects local file changes while the review window is open and offers a manual refresh without polling
• lets you leave overall comments and file/line comments
• appends the collected feedback back into the pi editor as a follow-up prompt

Choosing the base branch

By default the branch scope compares HEAD against the first base that resolves, in this order: the branch upstream (when it is not the same-named remote branch), origin/HEAD, origin/main, origin/master, origin/develop, main, master, develop.

To compare against something else:

• pick a branch from the Base dropdown in the review window header (Auto restores the default detection), or
• set the DIFF_REVIEW_BASE environment variable (for example DIFF_REVIEW_BASE=origin/release-1.0 pi) to change the default for new review windows. If the ref cannot be resolved, auto-detection is used.

Requirements

• pi
• a git repository
• glimpseui runtime installed through the package dependency
