About diffity-resolve
diffity-resolve is a skill for coding agents that reviews open diffity comment threads, makes requested code or documentation changes, and resolves actionable threads. It can target one thread or process all open threads.
Key features
- 01Inspect open review threads
- 02Apply requested code or documentation changes
- 03Resolve threads with a summary
- 04Skip non-actionable general comments
- 05Target a thread by ID
Use cases
- 01Apply feedback from a code review
- 02Answer review questions with a resolution summary
MCP support
This skill uses the diffity CLI to inspect and manage review threads; the input does not describe direct MCP integration.

Details
From the project READMEDiffity Resolve Skill
You are reading open review comments and resolving them by making the requested code changes.
Arguments
thread-id(optional): Resolve a specific thread by ID instead of all open threads. Example:/diffity-resolve abc123

Prerequisites
- Check that
diffityis available: runwhich diffity. If not found, install it withnpm install -g diffity. - Check that a review session exists: run
diffity agent list. If this fails with "No active review session", tell the user to start diffity first (e.g.diffityor /diffity-diff).
Instructions
- List open comment threads with full details:
If adiffity agent list --status open --jsonthread-idargument was provided, filter to just that thread. The JSON output includes the full comment body, file path, line numbers, and side for each thread. - If there are no open threads, tell the user there's nothing to resolve.
- For each open thread, check the
commentsarray and theauthor.typefield ("user"or"agent") on each comment: a. Skip general comments (filePath__general__) — these are summaries, not actionable code changes. b. Skip threads where the last comment is an agent reply that asks the user a question (e.g. "Could you clarify...?") and the user hasn't responded yet — the agent is waiting for user input. Still process threads where the agent left the original comment (code suggestion, review feedback, etc.) — those are actionable. c.[nit]comments — these are minor suggestions but still actionable. Resolve them like any other comment. d.[question]comments (from the user) — read the question, examine the relevant code, and resolve the thread with your answer as the summary:
e. Comments phrased as questions without an explicitdiffity agent resolve <thread-id> --summary "Your answer here"[question]tag (e.g. "should we add X?" or "can we rename this?") are suggestions — treat them as actionable requests and make the change. f. Read the comment body from the JSON output and understand what change is requested. Interpret the intent:- If the comment suggests a code change, make the change.
- If the comment suggests adding documentation, add or update the relevant docs.
- If the comment asks a question that implies an action (e.g. "should we add X?"), treat it as a request to do that action.
- If the comment is genuinely unclear and you cannot determine what action to take, reply asking for clarification instead of silently skipping:
diffity agent reply <thread-id> --body "Could you clarify what change you'd like here?"
diffity agent resolve <thread-id> --summary "Fixed: <brief description of what was changed>" - After resolving all applicable threads, run
diffity agent listto confirm status. - Tell the user to check the browser — resolved status will appear within 2 seconds via polling.
