Roslyn Semantic Diff for .NET FAQs

Question 1

Can I use this with Azure DevOps Pull Requests?

Accepted Answer

Yes, sc-diff features built-in support for both Azure DevOps and GitHub, allowing you to fetch and compare Pull Requests or specific Git refs directly.

Question 2

How does it handle very large repositories or diff sets?

Accepted Answer

The skill includes a smart batching system and agent delegation. If a diff exceeds the 'files_per_agent' limit, it automatically splits the work into batches to stay within processing limits.

Question 3

What makes sc-diff different from standard git diff?

Accepted Answer

Standard diffs compare lines of text, while sc-diff uses the Roslyn compiler to understand the code's underlying structure, focusing on actual logic and member changes rather than whitespace or formatting.

Question 4

Is the output suitable for AI processing?

Accepted Answer

Yes, sc-diff follows a JSON-first output contract designed specifically for AI consumption, providing structured data that Claude can easily interpret for code analysis tasks.

Question 5

Does it support languages other than C#?

Accepted Answer

While it is specifically optimized for .NET (C# and VB.NET) with semantic awareness, it includes an automatic fallback mode that performs standard line-based comparisons for non-.NET file types.
