/changes

Opens the unified review UI for proposed file changes (Ctrl+R).

/changes (keybinding Ctrl+R) opens the review UI for proposed changes. The 'Session' tab shows only this session's edits; o/O opens diffs in your editor, and there's a zen toggle for reviewing. Documented in the official changelog, not (yet) listed in the command reference table.

✅ WHEN TO USE IT?

Review all proposed changes together before committing

/changes — go through the Session tab before the agent finalizes the files

Look closer at a single diff in your usual editor

/changes — select a file, then press o to open it in the editor

⛔ WHEN NOT TO?

Just briefly confirming a single, already-known change

The full review UI is more overhead than needed for a simple single confirmation.

Better: Just confirm the direct prompt in the chat normally

Changes from earlier sessions should be reviewed too

The Session tab deliberately shows only the current session.

Better: Check git diff or the full git history in the terminal
