Review threads

Comments pinned to lines of a diff, which you and your agents read, answer and resolve.

Where Titlebar › Git Agents use it 1 min read

How it works

  1. Open a file's diff in the git view and press the + beside a line. Drag from it to take in several lines.
  2. Write the comment and press ⌘⏎, or Comment. Escape cancels.
  3. Hand the open threads to an agent with Review, at the head of the view, which counts them. Handoff to loop puts a prompt in a loop's message box and Handoff to agent pastes it into a running agent of the workspace, without sending it; Copy prompt for agents copies it.
  4. The agent reads the threads through Origami's MCP server, replies on them and resolves them. It can start threads of its own too.
  5. Open a thread to reply, Resolve it, or Reopen one that was resolved.

Good to know

  • A thread follows its lines as the file is edited. When they are gone it says anchor lost, and can be removed.
  • The titlebar's Git button and each file's sheet show how many threads are open.
  • Threads belong to files under review: uncommitted, or changed by the branch. Once a file's changes are discarded or its branch is merged, its threads stop showing.
  • A thread cannot be started on the Staged section.
