Kernel Patch Reviews Get AI Boost in b4's New Text UI
Linux kernel developers’ b4 patch tool now features a text-based UI that supports AI agent-assisted code reviews using Claude Code, enabling an opt-in, agent-enabled review of patches within the b4 workflow. Konstantin Ryabitsev calls this the first actual agent-assisted review on patches via the new TUI, with ongoing refinements to come. The development complements other AI-prompt work in the Linux kernel space, including efforts from Meta’s Chris Mason.
