Review an AI diff line-by-line

Reviewing an AI diff well is the difference between shipping fast and shipping bugs. Here's the loop.

Steps

  1. Open the worktree's diff view.
  2. Go file-by-file with j / k. For each hunk, ask: is the change necessary? is it minimal? does it match the rest of the file?
  3. Drop comments with c on anything you want changed — full sentences work best.
  4. When you've been through the whole diff, click Send to agent. Orca batches all comments into one prompt.
  5. Watch the agent revise. The state dot will go yellow (waiting for more input) or green (working).
  6. When it's idle, re-open the diff. Your comments are pinned; resolve the ones that are fixed and leave follow-ups on the rest.
  7. Repeat until clean, then commit.
