What problem does it solve?

Branch context loading by analyzing a branch's divergence from trunk to produce a structured situation report highlighting changes, intent, risks, and outstanding questions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detects the current branch and automatically identifies the trunk (main or master) when present.
  • Computes the divergence point and gathers context: commit counts, logs, diffs, and files changed.
  • Generates a narrative report describing intent, risk areas, and follow-up questions to inform reviews or onboarding.
  • Use cases include onboarding onto unfamiliar branches, resuming work after time away, reviewing pull requests, or obtaining a branch status snapshot.

Quick Start

Run the diffdive process on the current branch to compare it against trunk and generate a structured situation report.
