Related and a step beyond just viewing diffs - has anyone found a good TUI solution for a local equivalent of doing GitHub PR reviews?

I love the simplicity of using existing tools in this post. It would be nice to have something similar that would allow for adding online comment threads on a diff, and output it to a simple markdown file. Of course, I'm thinking about a local agent workflow here.

I wrote myself https://github.com/jfyne/meatcheck to do this. We use it with Claude to review markdown files and do reviews of changes.

Claude spawns the process, it pops open a browser tab. You review what is there and can leave line by line feedback. You click finish and your comments go to stdout for Claude to read.

We ask Claude to group changes and order them by importance to make reviews easier for us.

Haven't used it but have seen some online recommendations for gh-dash. https://github.com/dlvhdr/gh-dash
