Here’s a trick I don’t see enough people using:
Add
.diffto the end of any PR URL and copy&paste into a LLM
You can get an instant feedback on any GitHub PR.
No Copilot Enterprise. No browser extensions. No special tooling.
That’s it.
Example
- PR Link:
https://github.com/RahulPrabha/oldmanrahul.com/pull/11 - Add
.diffto the end:https://github.com/RahulPrabha/oldmanrahul.com/pull/11.diff - Copy the raw diff
- Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, or any LLM (Maybe add a short instuction like:
please review.)
So no more human reviewers?
This isn’t a replacement for a real code review by a peer. But it’s a great way to get a first pass in short order.
Before you ping a teammate, run your PR through an LLM. You’ll catch obvious issues, get suggestions for edge cases you missed, and show up to the real review with cleaner code.
It’ll shorten your cycle times and be a courtesy to others.
