🔍 Reviewing LLM Code: A Real Problem With an Elegant Solution#
The author reviews so much LLM-generated code that git + delta started feeling limiting. Their solution: Codiff — built in 16 minutes by pointing an LLM at two references. ⚡
✨ What Is Codiff?#
A local diff review tool, extremely fast for large diffs, with a beautiful and minimal design.
🎯 Features#
- 🔎 File filters — navigate the diff by file
- 🔍 Search — quickly find specific changes
- 🤖 LLM Walkthrough Mode — the LLM guides you through changes
- 💬 Review comments — comment and paste back to your LLM
💡 The Problem It Solves#
With the increase of AI-generated code, diffs become much larger than typical human-written diffs. Traditional workflows (git diff | less) don’t scale well for reviewing 500+ lines of code you didn’t write.
🛠️ Open Source — Fork It!#
git clone https://github.com/nkzw-tech/codiff💡 Explanation in a nutshell#
Codiff was born from a real need: reviewing large volumes of LLM-generated code. Built in 16 minutes with AI assistance, Codiff offers a local, fast, minimal UI for reviewing diffs with file filters, search, an LLM walkthrough mode, and comments you can paste back to your agent. It’s the bridge between AI-generated code and the human review that’s still necessary.
