# vtcode-diff

[Root AGENTS.md](../../../AGENTS.md) | Reusable bounded diff computation and semantic preview layout.

## Key Types

`DiffDocument` + `DiffHunk`/`DiffLine` semantic model | `DiffOptions` bounds | `compute_diff`/`format_unified_diff` entry points

## Modules

`types.rs` public vocabulary + inherent constructors | `compute.rs` `DiffDocument` construction | `parse.rs` unified header/metadata parsing | `format.rs` unified text + numbering | `display.rs` semantic display lines + side-by-side pairing | `intraline.rs` bounded char/word refinement | `layout.rs` semantic row layout | `adapters.rs` feature-gated ANSI/Ratatui renderers | `lib.rs` facade re-exports

## Conventions

- Keep the core independent of VT Code crates and renderer themes.
- Preserve source line endings and byte-safe intraline ranges.
- All expensive diff and intraline paths require explicit bounds or deadlines.
- Layout emits semantic rows; applications supply syntax and color policy.
- Shared responsive constants keep side-by-side and unified gutter decisions consistent across renderers; measured widths are post-indent/content widths.
- Public and internal functions document Creusot-style contracts: `Requires`/`Ensures`/`Termination` in the doc comment, with loop invariants inline. Invariants that must hold are enforced with `debug_assert!` (kept in release) plus total `saturating_*`/checked arithmetic on offsets and counts — never plain `+` on user-scaled values. `DiffHunk::counts_match` is the executable form of the hunk invariant; `validate_hunk_counts` delegates to it.

## Dependencies

- `similar` owns diff algorithms and deadline-aware refinement.
- `unicode-width` owns terminal display-cell measurements.
