Revdiff – TUI diff reviewer with inline annotations for AI agents

I built a terminal diff viewer for a workflow I couldn't do comfortably with existing tools: reviewing AI-generated code changes without leaving the terminal session where the agent runs, annotating what needs to change, and feeding those annotations straight back to the agent. Plenty of diff viewers exist, and some can even feed notes back to an agent, but none of them fit that flow for me - they pulled me out of the terminal into a separate app, or the round-trip back to the agent was clunky. Revdiff is how I solved it. From a Claude Code session I type `/revdiff main` or just say…

In plain words

Revdiff is a terminal-based diff viewer designed for reviewing AI-generated code changes without leaving the terminal session. It displays diffs as an overlay, allows users to add inline annotations on specific lines, hunks, or files, and sends those annotations directly back to AI agents for revision. The tool streamlines the feedback loop between code review and agent iteration, eliminating the need to switch between separate applications.

    deff is an interactive Rust TUI for reviewing git diffs side-by-side with syntax highlighting and added/deleted line tinting. It supports keyboard/mouse navigation, vim-style motions, in-diff search (/, n, N), per-file reviewed toggles, and both upstream-based and explicit --base/--head comparisons. It can also include uncommitted + untracked files (--include-uncommitted) so you can review your working tree before committing. Would love to get some feedback

    I started building this 10 months ago, largely using agentic coding tools. I've stayed very involved in the code base and architecture, and have never moved faster in my life as a dev. The word processor engine and rendering layer are all built from scratch - the only 3rd party library I used was the excellent Y.js for the CRDT stack. Would love some feedback!
