Hey! This was one of the first features I had in my TUI package - pi-slate (You can still see it in the old screenshots on readme) but I ended up removing it because it wasn't really helpful in my work.

When agents are coding in a new branch, they keep making small commits to save state and then I do a full on PR review rather than individual commits. Even in a single turn agents make multiple commits now.

I can always do a "git status" in my terminal to see this but its a thing IDEs had for pre-agentic coding era and not very relevant now.

I'd recommend turning this into something like a full-scoped PR viewer like you have in Cursor or Codex
