The Export Habit: Why My Best Code Reviews Start Offline

I used to review code the way most people do - open the PR, scan the diff, leave comments, hit approve or request changes. Then I started something weird. I started taking my AI code review conversations and exporting them before I ever touched the actual PR. Sounds unnecessary, right? Hear me out. The Problem With Live AI Code Reviews When I paste code into ChatGPT or Claude and ask for a review, the conversation is gold. The AI spots edge cases I missed. It suggests patterns I hadn't considered. It catches actual bugs. But then the conversation disappears into the platform's history.
