Cut it to me. Cut it back.
Send code. Get code back.
Package the exact code, diff, and command output one question needs into a single link, for a teammate or an AI agent, without handing over your repository.
Package the exact code, diff, notes, and command output one discussion needs. Send the same Cut to a teammate or AI agent without sharing the repository.

What a Cut is
A snippet is too little. Repository access is too much.
A Cut is the bounded object in between: the exact code at precise line ranges, the complete diff, the command you actually ran with its exit code and bounded output, and one answerable question. Every item carries an honest provenance label, so pasted material never inherits a Git claim.
Send code. Get code back. Try it without touching your checkout.
Every other tool ends at "take a look." A Cut can be answered with another Cut: real code with its own provenance. Inspect the proposed change, run cut try to materialise it in an isolated worktree, and run cut apply only after digest confirmation.
The same link. Two very different readers.
A person opens a readable review surface with anchored comments. An agent fetches Markdown, structured JSON, or a verified archive from the same URL, with explicit included and excluded scope. One canonical Cut, one digest, two representations.
One permanent address for a small team.
Publish to a team slug and the question lands in a shared inbox with derived Waiting and Answered states. An outside contractor can answer with code without a seat, a clone, or repository access.
Nothing leaves your machine before you have seen it.
Creation is local. The disclosure review lists every item, path, note, recipient, and detected sensitive field before a single byte uploads. Secret scanning is a heuristic, provenance never claims correctness, and revocation cannot recall an existing copy.
Open where portability matters.
The Cut format, CLI, viewer, and SDK are open source under Apache-2.0. Export any Cut as Markdown, JSON, or a verified archive. The hosted service remains a separate private implementation.
