How Diamond provides feedback

When Diamond identifies an issue in a pull request, it adds a comment directly on the relevant lines of code. Each comment includes:
  1. A clear description of the problem
  2. An explanation of why it matters
  3. A concrete suggestion for how to fix it
You can see Diamond’s comments, suggestions, and choose to commit suggestions — just like your teammates’.

​
Types of issues Diamond identifies

Diamond catches a wide range of issues that often slip through manual code review and testing:

​
Logic bugs

Diamond identifies when your implementation doesn’t match the intended behavior, detecting issues like:
  • Functions that don’t accomplish what they’re named to do
  • Inconsistencies between code behavior and documentation
  • Mismatches between API usage and implementation
  • Off-by-one errors and incorrect loop boundaries

​
Edge cases

Diamond finds potential failure modes that aren’t handled in your code:
  • Missing null checks or error handling
  • Race conditions in asynchronous code
  • Memory leaks and resource management issues
  • Unexpected side effects

​
Security vulnerabilities

Diamond spots security issues before they reach production:
  • SQL injection vulnerabilities
  • Cross-site scripting (XSS) opportunities
  • Authorization bypass possibilities
  • Insecure cryptographic practices

​
Performance issues

Diamond detects code that might cause performance problems:
  • Inefficient algorithms or data structures
  • Unnecessary API calls or database queries
  • Memory-intensive operations that could be optimized
  • N+1 query patterns

​
Accidentally committed code

Diamond catches code that was likely not meant to be committed:
  • Debug statements and console logs
  • Test data and development configurations
  • Commented-out code blocks
  • Temporary workarounds

​
Tracking Diamond’s impact

You can monitor Diamond’s activity and impact from the Diamond dashboard, accessible via the Diamond settings page.
The dashboard provides:
  • A feed of all comments Diamond has left across your repositories
  • Statistics on the number of PRs reviewed and issues found
  • Feedback metrics showing how often Diamond’s suggestions were applied
  • Filtering options to view comments by category or repository

​
How to check Diamond’s status

For any pull request, you can see Diamond’s current status in the right-hand panel of the PR page:
Diamond will show as:
  • Running: Diamond is currently analyzing the PR
  • Completed: Diamond has finished reviewing and left any relevant comments
  • Not running: Diamond won’t analyze this PR (e.g., if the PR exceeds 100,000 characters)
