The big idea
Pull requests are how coders share changes for review. AI helps you write the description, explain why the change matters, and answer reviewer questions.
Some examples
- 'Help me write a pull request description for this change [paste diff].'
- 'Explain my code change in plain language for non-coders.'
- 'Help me respond to this PR feedback [paste].'
- 'What questions might reviewers ask about this code?'
Try it!
