I usually copy paste snippet or function name that is affected and comment it. similar like you would sit next to coworker and tried to say where he/she messed up. agent is able to get location correctly

I know this is change of context, but I have full screen terminal toggled with keyboard shortcut and with middle mouse paste (Linux) I do not have to move cursor anywhere

Guake and Yakuake have this always-on-top terminal overlay mode which is really nice for this kind of workflow. Works exceptionally well with multiple workspaces I prefer one single big monitor with everything maximized and multiple workspaces.

iterm2 on mac also has a similar mode, but it is a bit finicky to set it up (it is really hidden in the settings).

Thanks for the reply. That makes sense. It’s sort of what I do too when I use codex/claude/t3 code, but usually via GUI.

The in-editor context review is something that does not seem long for first world. Sadly. Maybe I’ll be forced to make a zed extension or something, maybe on top of jujustu…

I use git diff and ctrl+click the file+linenumber which opens my IDE. Works well enough. I use this macro here when there are a lot of changes:

  gdf() { git diff '*'$1'*'; }

  gdf fileName (doesn't need full file name)

  gdf folderName (all files in a folder)
