Adds a button on GitHub pull requests that turns the changes into a short, readable overview. It calls out what moved, what behavior likely changed, and where risk might be hiding, so you know what to focus on. It makes reviews faster for engineers and easier to follow for people who just need the gist.
Big pull requests are hard to review because the “why” is scattered across commits, files, and comments. A fast overview helps you decide where to spend attention before you start reading the diff line by line.
Paste the summary into Slack or a PR comment to give teammates context before they start reviewing.
