What about to show code modification as diff?

[DanoPTT]

It would be nice to see AI proposed changes in code as difference original code new code. It look for example like this

there are some libs allowing that, for example https://github.com/mmanela/diffplex, or reuse the official VS diff editor via IVsDifferenceService.

What do you think?

freeair is using IVsDifferenceService already, to show the diff as you describe, see DifferenceShower

to see the diff, the LLM should use embedded ReplaceDocumentBody MCP tool. if it does not work, then it is a bug.

or may be you meant something else?

Can you make please short video showing diff functionality?
For example let create summary for method. Thank you.
It did not show by me, or I don't know how to properly use it.

PTAL

in your version of the VSIX:

1. to see these MCP tools you need to docker engine running, or wait some time for a new version where I fixed this
2. MCP tools names is slightly different (item <-> file), which is not a big deal I hope.

Hope it helps you.
