2 min read Original article ↗

A fast and focused review experience

See every review that needs your attention in one focused interface. Open diffs instantly, respond quickly, and keep your team unblocked.

Remove view-mode condition

Review notifications you’ll actually see

Never miss a review request again. Every PR notification surfaces clearly in a focused inbox built for action.

Built for speed, still synced with GitHub

Reviews in Linear sync bidirectionally with GitHub, so comments, approvals, and PR status are always up to date.

Structural highlighting

Strip away formatting-only edits to focus on
code changes, not the noise around them.

Review code in context

Each diff is tied directly to the issue it resolves.
No tab or tool switching required.

Agent access from every diff

Fix review feedback directly from the diff. Agents can handle refactors, tests, and follow-up edits without leaving the review surface.

A clear path through complex changes

Large PRs are hard to review without a clear way in. Guided reviews walk you through changes in semantic order, separating out supporting changes and glue code.

Having the context of an issue, the agents that worked on it, and the diff in a single view is the most ergonomic experience we’ve ever had.

I really love structural highlighting. It feels so obvious once you use it that I’m surprised no one else built it yet.
