Code suggestion
A code suggestion is a proposed source-code fragment, completion, or modification presented to a programmer for possible acceptance or revision.
"Looks Good to Me"
A proposed modification to source code generated or presented to improve its implementation.
- How it is used
- Augments pull-request review by identifying improvements and proposing directly integrable code changes.
- How deep it goes
- Describes inline and extended suggestion workflows, but stops short of explaining implementation internals or model training.
- Examples
- Uses What The Diff’s /wtd command, Qodo’s /improve and --extended options, and singleton-registration refactoring.
- What you can do after
- Apply it via What The Diff or Qodo, then inspect, validate, and selectively integrate proposed pull-request changes.
