1.0.2

Diffsift 1.0

Diffsift is out. This is the first public build, and it’s what the download page installs.

  • Review packs. Each pull request gets findings with severity, confidence, and evidence quoted from the actual diff, plus a risk level, a suggested review focus, and questions for the author. Packs are Markdown files on your disk.
  • Review inbox. Turn on monitoring and Diffsift picks up new and updated pull requests while the app is open and reviews them by your rules: per-repository toggles, skip drafts, a size cap, and re-review on push. Finished packs land in the inbox with a Windows notification. Monitoring is off until you turn it on.
  • Your vote at a glance. The inbox shows where you’ve already voted or reviewed, and merged pull requests are archived automatically. Abandoned ones stay visible.
  • Azure DevOps and GitHub. Both are read-only. Diffsift never comments, approves, rejects, or merges. You copy the comments you agree with.
  • Models. LM Studio, Ollama, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint on your machine or network. If your policies allow it, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI (including custom-named reasoning deployments), Anthropic, and OpenRouter work too, with a confirmation before any code is sent.
  • Multi-pass review for large pull requests, and review profiles for general, security, performance, test, and architecture review.
  • Setup wizard that walks through the connection, model, and output folder, with token budgets you can adjust.
  • Signed Windows installer. Per-user install, no admin rights needed. Licenses are verified offline, and the 14-day trial needs no account.

Comment posting and author opinion packs from the private preview are held back while they get more work.

0.9.0-preview

Private preview

Diffsift is in private preview while we finish launch packaging. What already works:

  • Review packs — structured findings with severity, confidence, and evidence quoted from the actual diff, written as Markdown to your disk.
  • Multi-pass review for large PRs: triage, summarise, deep-review the risky files, consolidate.
  • Azure DevOps and GitHub pull request providers (GitHub is read-only for now).
  • Review profiles — senior C#, security, performance, tests, architecture.
  • Author opinion packs — an “is this ready?” pre-review for your own PR.
  • Controlled comment posting to Azure DevOps: per-comment confirmation, duplicate protection, AI-assisted marker, and a local audit log.
  • Local-first model support — LM Studio, Ollama, and OpenAI-compatible endpoints, with explicit warnings before any external provider is used.
