If you haven't read the first blog post it's pretty good at explaining the concepts.

The demo is particularly good if you can get past ( by the authors own admission ) slow typing speed.

As with everything these days I can see this being even more useful in reviewing agent code.

For example if an agent has spat out a bunch of code that I've reviewed and then I've asked it to make changes, I definitely do not want to review all that code again in the same diff later.

That's a really good point, at the moment I struggle to get past wanting it to create small logical changes that I can commit individually. If I could review them better such as Flirt describes, then maybe I don't care so much, and a big 'create initial implementation' commit becomes more acceptable, for example.

How is this different than simply committing between changes? Or even asking the agent to commit changes as it edits files.

Because I don't review everything between changes, there might be 10 small commits I review and state I am happy with, then I might prompt the agent to perform some small refactors after the review, I don't want the diff to show me everything in those 10 commits again in the diff ( like the usual PR would ) I want it only to show me new stuff.
