revu-cli

⚙️ Configuration

The files revu reads and writes, and how to change its settings.

📁 Files

revu reads and writes two files in your repository:

FilePurpose
.revu.jsonAutosaved annotations (JSON). Persists across sessions. Compatible with the revu VSCode extension. Do not edit manually.
revu-review.mdMarkdown export for human and AI review. Generated by pressing e. Safe to delete after use.

.revu.json is the source of truth for your annotations and shares its format with the revu VSCode extension, so a review started in the terminal can be continued in the editor and vice versa. revu-review.md is a disposable export — regenerate it any time by pressing e.

🔧 Settings

Press s inside revu to open the settings panel. Changes are saved automatically to:

~/.config/revu/settings.json

This file stores your preferred theme and view mode. It is managed by revu — there is no need to edit it by hand.
