I've been using Claude Code for a few months, and while it's amazing at writing code, reviewing the changes became a bottleneck. The diff is just files in alphabetical order. No context. No explanation of intent. So I built Codebrief, a VS Code extension that: 1. Captures your git diff + session context 2. Groups changes by intent (not by filename) 3. Explains the "why" behind each group It works with Claude Code, OpenCode, and Codex. GitHub: VS Code Marketplace: Open VSX link (Cursor, Windsurf, etc. ): Would love feedback from anyone else dealing with this problem.
