Review an AI Diff

After an agent finishes, read the diff, leave comments on anything you want changed, and hand the feedback back.

1. Open the diff

Go to Source Control in the left panel. Every file the agent touched appears under Changes. Click a file to open its diff in the editor.

If the agent already committed, open History instead and click the commit to expand its changes.

2. Add review comments

In the diff, select the lines you want to flag. A comment button appears in the gutter; click it to add a note. Write what’s wrong or what you want changed. Repeat for each issue across any file.

3. Check the Review Bar

The Review Bar at the bottom of the editor tracks your comments. It shows how many comments you’ve added and lets you navigate between them.

4. Request changes

When you’re done annotating, click Request Changes in the Review Bar. Verne collects all your comments and hands them to your Review Agent, which opens in a new terminal tab and works through the feedback.

Set which agent handles reviews in Settings › Agents. See Code Review for the full setup.

5. Re-review

Once the Review Agent finishes, return to Source Control to see the updated diff. Repeat until the changes are what you want, then commit.
