Review by hunk
Keep the exact changes you want and discard the ones you don’t, without throwing away the whole run.
Built for agent-written code
Diffward shows what the agent touched, what you touched, and the files you never asked for—then lets you keep or discard each change.

The review gap
Approval prompts interrupt the work. A plain git diff hides the shape of the run.
Diffward waits until the agent finishes, then turns the full session into one review—with attribution, scope, and risk visible from the start.
A safer handoff
Review a complete run without losing the details that determine whether a change belongs in your codebase.
Keep the exact changes you want and discard the ones you don’t, without throwing away the whole run.
Every hunk is marked as agent, human, or unknown. Diffward says when it can’t be certain.
Files unrelated to your request rise to the top, before they disappear inside a large diff.
Get a clear warning when an agent overwrites lines you edited during the same session.
Review workflows
See how Diffward helps you inspect coding agent changes, investigate unrelated edits, and protect work already in your tree.
Follow a focused workflow from completed run to reviewed hunks.

Diffward observes your working tree in the background. It doesn’t add another prompt box, run another model, or lock you into one agent.
Install the VS Code extensionUse the coding agent and workflow you already have.
Changes are grouped and attributed as the run unfolds.
Collateral and risky changes come first. Ward or discard each hunk.
“You asked for one thing. Your agent changed twelve files.”
Diffward makes the other eleven visible.
