A new tool called proposal-review-helper, developed by @rem_codes, aims to streamline the review process for NNS proposals and code changes across any Git repository. The system automatically generates both HTML and Markdown reports, providing reviewers with clear, structured, and interactive documentation.
The HTML reports feature a dark-themed, side-by-side diff view, clickable commit hashes, hover-to-reveal line links, commit type badges, collapsible sections, and keyboard shortcuts for easier navigation. Markdown reports offer clean, shareable summaries of commit metadata, file changes, and statistics, making it simple to version-control and circulate review results.
The tool supports multiple paths, caching repositories for faster subsequent runs, and persistent configuration to remember previous settings. It works with any GitHub repository, not just those associated with the Internet Computer ecosystem, and requires Python 3.7+, Git, Make, and an internet connection.
Reviewers provide the repository URL, commit range, and paths to review. The system either clones the repository or updates an existing cache, extracts commit and diff information, and produces neatly organised HTML and Markdown reports saved to a timestamped directory.
proposal-review-helper has been designed for both efficiency and accessibility. By automating report generation and offering interactive, well-structured outputs, it reduces the friction of reviewing proposals and code changes, letting developers and stakeholders focus on the substance of their analysis rather than formatting and organisation.
The tool is available to download and run immediately, with full instructions, examples, and troubleshooting guidance included for first-time users.
