Introducing Branch Review: Analyze Entire Pull Requests

Branch Review: Analyze Entire Pull Requests

You can now review all changes on your current branch compared to a target branch like main or develop. Get a full AI-powered review of your feature or bug fix before opening a pull request.

What’s new:

  • Local Changes Review: Analyze any unstaged changes before committing.
  • Branch Changes Tab: Switch between local uncommitted changes and all changes on your current branch.
  • Smart Branch Selector: Searchable dropdown for quickly selecting any remote branch. We auto-detect your repository’s default base branch (origin/main, origin/master, etc.) for a faster start.
  • Merge Conflict Detection: Get instant alerts when your branch conflicts with the target branch.
  • Apply Suggested Code Changes: Apply Optibot’s inline suggestions directly to your code with one click.

Improvements

More Readable, More Helpful Review Comments

Review comments now support full Markdown formatting — including bold text, lists, code blocks, and italics — making suggestions clearer and easier to digest.

UI & Quality-of-Life Enhancements

  • File Status Indicators: Every file now shows a status label (A, M, D) with color-coding for quick scanning.
  • Cursor Editor Support: Official support added for Cursor users.
  • Auto-Collapsing File List: After a review completes, the file list collapses automatically so the AI feedback takes center stage. Expand anytime.
  • Clearer Error & Upgrade Notifications: Subscription and rate-limit messages have been redesigned to be clearer and more actionable.

Bug Fixes

  • Improved File Detection: Better detection of all changed files in your workspace, including newly added untracked files that were sometimes missed.
  • More Reliable Git Initialization: The extension now waits for Git to fully load when opening a new window, preventing missing file lists on startup.
  • Cleaner Login Messaging: The login success message has been simplified for a smoother flow.
