Idk, I just ask my agent what the status of the PR is in terms of failing checks, outstanding comments, etc.

But this seems fine

If anything I think the place to invest a better UX is on reviewing code, even “my” (agent’s) own code before I ask for a review. In a world where we’re moving away from IDEs, and using terminal apps or desktop apps to code, I often don’t even see the code until it’s on GitHub. But I still cling on to some semblance of needing to review, in particular what’s important.

And yes, me one year ago would be shocked at what I just said.

Yep I do PR reviews only via the terminal now. gh or tea cli, and an agent swarm that does an initial review pass.
