Why diffy?

GitHub’s Files changed works well for small PRs but struggles with large ones. diffy solves this by providing a dedicated, responsive diff viewer that handles large PRs with hundreds of files and heavy review threads.

GitHub token

Save an optional personal access token in the extension popup.

Required for:

  • Private repos
  • Higher API rate limits
  • Post review comments
  • Viewed-file tracking and batch reviews

Reload open PR tabs after saving a token.

Token type

Capability Fine-grained PAT Classic PAT (ghp_…) or gh auth token (gho_…)
View diffs (public/private)
Read inline comments
Post inline comments
Mark files as viewed
Batch review / publish verdict

Fine-grained tokens (github_pat_…) work for diffs and comments. GraphQL mutations for viewed files and publishing reviews need a classic PAT with repo scope or a token from gh auth login.

Quick start

  1. Open a PR on GitHub → View Diff (or right-click a PR link → Open in diffy).
  2. Scroll the full diff, use the file tree to jump around.
  3. Leave comments on lines, start a batch review to queue and publish when done.
