Plannotator, open source runs locally, has code review: https://github.com/backnotprop/plannotator

and a code tour feature about to ship: https://x.com/backnotprop/status/2043759492744270027/video/1

- integrated comment feedback for agents

- inline chat

- integrated AI review (uses codex and claude code defaults)

Stage (op product) navigation tour is nice UX, about a day worth of work in addition to the incoming code tour.

this is for AI agent work though. That's cool, but not every team that wants better UX for complex work uses agents. Even if it "just works" for real scenarios, the marketing could be better.
reply
Fair. There are users who simply just use the diff and integrated GitHub view/comment/approval-sync experience for local reviews of PRs. But it's _marketed_ as an integrated agent experience.

Open source is something we're thinking about! We've just been focused on building for now but its definitely not off the table
reply
"Building" is always easier when you have a community that is ready and able to rout out bugs and suggest new features. Closed source makes that much less practical and appealing for most.
reply
Totally get that, still something we're actively talking about!

Sort of related to that, we've been thinking a lot about the future of code review for OSS. Its clear with Cal.com going closed source that something needs to change. Would love to hear any thoughts you have

reply
Cal.com going closed source was, without a doubt, shortsighted and unwise. I would recommend the blog post from the maintainers of Discourse on this.

Translation: we're hoping for an acqui-hire from some rich company, and will opensource this thing if it flops.
