[0.2.2] - 2026-03-31

Added

• PR status in title bar — colored status icon (approved, changes requested, draft, merged, closed) derived from GitHub's reviewDecision field (#63)
• Reviewer avatars in description panel — shows each reviewer with a per-reviewer status icon (✓ approved, ✗ changes requested, ○ commented, ● pending) fetched via GraphQL latestReviews (#68)
• C (uppercase) as comment hotkey — opens an inline comment on the current line, same as c but available as an alternative binding (#69)
• Review body comments — review submissions with a body (e.g. "Approved with comment") now appear as top-level comments in the diff view, prefixed with [Approved] or [Changes Requested]

Changed

• Description panel default off — d toggles the description panel on/off; default is now hidden; navigate with arrow keys when open (#68)
• q scoped to panel — pressing q in the description panel closes the panel instead of quitting the app (#67)
• Context-aware review bar hints — status bar hints are now generated from the keymap with conditions (e.g. "discard" only shown on pending comments, "resolve"/"unresolve" adapts to thread state); replaces hardcoded hint strings (#64)
• Help overlay reformatted — hardcoded layout with stack navigation section when a stack is detected; cleaner presentation (#65)
• RowContext carries state — Comment and Suggestion variants now include CommentState (is_pending, is_resolved) for context-sensitive key dispatch and hint rendering
• PrStatus consolidated — merged review decision into PrStatus with Approved and ChangesRequested variants; added icon() and color() methods (#63)

Fixed

• Top-level comments not always displayed — review body comments (from approve/request-changes submissions) were sometimes missing from the diff view; now fetched via a dedicated reviews GraphQL field and displayed as orphan comments

[0.2.1] - 2026-03-30

Added

• Graphite stack navigation — auto-detects stacked PRs from Graphite bot comments; navigate between PRs in a stack with Cmd+K / Cmd+J (or Cmd+Up / Cmd+Down); PR data is cached so switching is instant (#57)
• Stack indicator — description panel shows the full stack with per-PR status (open, draft, merged, closed), titles, and highlights the currently viewed PR (#57)
• Title bar additions/deletions — PR title bar now shows colored +N/-M line counts (#59)
• Paragraph jumps — { / } to jump between blank lines in the diff, matching vim paragraph motion; [ / ] remain for hunk navigation (#61)
• : command mode everywhere — command bar now opens from any panel, not just the diff view (#57)
• Branch info in description — description panel header shows base → head branch names (#57)

Changed

• Comment rendering refactor — extracted emit_expanded_thread helper to share rendering logic across inline threads, pending comments, and orphan threads; reduces duplication in diff/model.rs (#52, #58)
• Fetch pipeline refactor — replaced four parallel tokio::spawn blocks with a generic spawn_fetch helper; events now carry a pr field so stale responses from a previous PR are discarded (#57)
• Graphite bot comments filtered — Graphite's auto-generated stack management comments are now hidden from the diff view (#57)
• Test data anonymized — CLI test fixtures now use acme/widgets instead of real repo names (#58)

Fixed

• Paragraph jump in diff — { / } now correctly land on file/hunk header boundaries instead of overshooting (#61)

[0.2.0] - 2026-03-28

Added

• User configuration — TOML config file at ~/.config/gh-review/config.toml with all settings optional and sensible defaults; run :config-path to see the resolved path (#41)
• Remappable keybindings — every action can be rebound via [keys] section; supports single keys, modifier combos (Ctrl-d), pending sequences (gg, zo), and multiple bindings per action (["j", "Down"]); unbind with "no_op" (#41)
• Custom actions — user-defined shell commands via [[actions]] with template variables ({PR_NUMBER}, {REPO}, {URL}, etc.); bindable to hotkeys and invocable from the command bar (#42)
• Command aliases — define short names for built-in commands in [aliases] (e.g. lgtm = "approve"); usable in [keys] and the : command bar (#44)
• Disable commands — remove unwanted commands from both the keymap and command bar via disabled_commands (#44)
• PR description panel — dedicated panel showing the PR title and description with markdown rendering; toggle with :description (#53)
• Panel navigation — Tab / Shift-Tab to cycle between file picker, diff view, and description panel; active panel indicated with highlighted border (#46)
• Status line — transient message bar with info/success/error states and auto-expiry after 2 seconds (#50)
• :q! command — force-quit alias (#49)

Changed

• Comment block rendering — migrated comment threads to a dedicated CommentBlock widget with rounded borders, color-coded backgrounds, word-wrapping, and proper width constraints; replaces the previous inline row-based rendering (#52)
• Unresolved comments default open — unresolved comment threads now expand automatically on load instead of starting collapsed (#45)
• Architecture — extracted command_handlers.rs (499 lines) from command.rs and comment_block.rs (297 lines) from diff_view/draw.rs for better separation of concerns (#52)

Fixed

• Visual select in side-by-side view — visual line selection now works correctly in side-by-side diff mode (#47)
• Top-level comments visible — PR-level review comments (not attached to a specific line) are now displayed in the diff view (#54)

[0.1.3] - 2026-03-27

Added

• Edit code with your own editor — users can now modify code in suggestions using their preferred $EDITOR; falls back to a built-in text field on systems without one (e.g. Windows) (#37)
• Collapsible files — open and close files in the diff view with zo/zc or by pressing Enter on a file header to hide reviewed diffs and reduce clutter (#33)
• Row context expansion — expand context around diff hunks showing line numbers for better orientation (#38)
• CLI aliases — invoke with a PR URL or just a PR number when inside the repo (e.g. gh-review 42 or gh-review https://github.com/org/repo/pull/42) (#34)
• Debug mode — --debug flag to dump resolved config and diagnostics for troubleshooting (#32)

Changed

• Suggestions render as rich diffs — code suggestions now display with proper diff formatting instead of plain markdown code fences (#36)
• Dynamic keybinding hints — status bar hints now update based on the current context and active mode instead of being static
• Enter to save comments — pressing Enter now saves the current comment instead of inserting a newline; quality-of-life improvement for faster reviewing (#35)
• Scroll animation — smoother and more responsive scrolling in the diff view (#31)
• Resolve/unresolve hotkey — replaced the r (request changes) hotkey with resolve/unresolve thread toggle for faster review workflows (#30)
• Moved architecture documentation into a separate docs/architecture.md file (#27)

Fixed

• Side-by-side view rendering — fixed empty area appearing when scrolling through paired add/remove lines, and comments now render on the correct panel (left for deletions, right for additions) (#29)
• Backward search — ? search now correctly navigates in reverse direction (#28)

[0.1.2] - 2026-03-24

Added

• Syntax highlighting — full tree-sitter-based highlighting for diff content via arborium with GitHub Dark theme; highlights both unified and side-by-side views, and re-highlights after context expansion (#9)
• Command mode — vim-style : command palette with tab-completion, sorted fuzzy matching, inline documentation, and a popup completion menu; all review actions are now executable as named commands (:approve, :comment, :suggest, :quit, etc.) (#16, #17)
• Code suggestions — propose inline code changes on any line with e; opens a pre-filled editor with the original line content for modification; suggestions are rendered as diff blocks in the review (#19)
• Visual line selection — v to enter visual mode, extend selection across lines, then c to comment or e to suggest across the entire range; multi-line comments include start_line/start_side fields for proper GitHub rendering (#15, #21)
• Review comment management — discard pending comments with x/d, edit pending comments by pressing c on them (re-opens editor pre-filled with existing body) (#15)
• Resolve/unresolve threads — toggle thread resolution status from the TUI via GraphQL API (#15)
• Accept suggestions — apply code suggestions directly to the PR branch from the terminal using the GitHub Contents API (#15)
• Dismiss own approval — u to unapprove, dismisses your review via the API (#15)
• Reply to review comments — post threaded replies to existing review comments inline (#15)
• Review submission with body — :comment, :approve_with_comment, and :request_changes_with_comment open a textarea for a review body; quick actions (a, r, s) now show a compact Enter/Esc confirmation instead (#20)
• V for visual select — capital V also enters visual line selection mode (#21)
• Expand/collapse all comments — :expand_all_comments and :collapse_all_comments commands to bulk toggle every thread at once

Fixed

• Expanded context lines now receive syntax highlighting instead of appearing as plain text (#11)
• Search status indicator ([3/15]) updates correctly after navigating between matches (#13)
• Key modifiers (Ctrl, Shift) register correctly again after the keymap refactor (#18)
• GitHub API 422 errors now display the actual error message (e.g. "Pull request review thread is already resolved") instead of raw JSON or generic "gh api POST reviews failed" (#12)
• Side-by-side diff styling and missing highlighted_content field in tests (#12)

Changed

• Architecture overhaul — split monolithic app.rs (712 lines) into app/mod.rs, app/handlers.rs, app/keymap.rs, app/command.rs, and app/ui.rs; split diff_view.rs into diff_view/mod.rs, diff_view/draw.rs, and diff_view/navigation.rs; extracted diff/model.rs from renderer; split search.rs into search/mod.rs and search/tests.rs (+2504/−2358 lines) (#10)
• Command-driven keymap — all keybindings now dispatch through a Command registry with named, documented, and discoverable actions instead of inline closures; enables future remappable keybindings (#16)
• c on a diff line now opens an inline comment; :comment opens a review-level comment with body (#20)
• Comment thread rendering — complete visual redesign of comment threads with box-drawing characters (┌─┐│└─┘), distinct color-coded backgrounds (blue for comments, green for resolved, amber for pending), word-wrapping within thread boxes, reply count badges, and responsive width that adapts to the terminal
