It would be great to have the ability to leave comments on diffs that would subsequently be processed by an agent. Ideally, there would be two settings: one to send comments immediately, and another to send them only after the entire implementation is complete. This feature is sorely missed, as it is often necessary to monitor the agent, and copying and pasting snippets of code is quite inconvenient.

This feature is provided in the Codex app.

But the Codex App isn't available on Linux (unless you rebuild Electron) - plus, why not implement this in the VS Code extension as well?

I have noticed in the CLI that it cannot render a hashtag comment? e.g. # this python comment

is this intended @etraut-openai ?
