Show HN: Vestige - Splits large AI diffs into reviewable chunks
Vestige Understand this change and what it will break, so you can push it with confidence. Vestige makes AI-generated diffs reviewable before they're pushed. When an LLM changes a lot of code at once, Vestige answers three questions fast: Where do I start? — entry points and a guided reading order for the change.

Vestige Understand this change and what it will break, so you can push it with confidence. Vestige makes AI-generated diffs reviewable before they're pushed. When an LLM changes a lot of code at once, Vestige answers three questions fast: Where do I start? — entry points and a guided reading order for the change. What could this affect? — the blast radius: everything the change can reach or break. What did this code do before? — the surrounding context, without re-deriving it. How a review works Open a folder. Vestige scans and parses it locally — no LLM calls — to build a call graph and a file-dependency graph. Read the graphs. Click the Vestige icon in the activity bar, or run Vestige: Open Graph, for two tabs on one panel: Repo Graph (function calls) and Feature (feature clusters).
