Kamus AI
Diff
The list of lines added, changed or removed between two versions of a file.
A diff shows exactly what changed. Reading the diff is the fastest way to check an AI agent's work: not its report, but the lines it actually changed. A diff too big to read is a sign your request was too big.
Also called: Diff, changeset
