What it does

Code review diff computation: branch detection, scope locking, large-diff handling, and non-source filtering

When to use it

Use this protocol at the start of a code review to select the correct diff for a feature branch, uncommitted work, selected code, or a specific commit. It locks findings to changed lines and filters non-source output; use ordinary repository exploration instead when the task is not a review.

Example usage

Provide a concrete example that shows the asset in action, including representative input and the resulting output.
