Description
/codex:review and /codex:adversarial-review always diff relative to HEAD. Reviewing a different branch or PR requires checking it out locally, which disrupts the current working state.
I'd love to use Codex reviews as part of my daily PR review workflow, but without this I can't scale it — every review requires a checkout and context-switch back.
Desired UX:
/codex:adversarial-review --branch origin/feature-branch
Current workaround: create a git worktree, then run the review with --cwd pointing at it — works but is cumbersome for quick PR reviews.

Research direction
Start by tracing the /codex:review and /codex:adversarial-review command entry points and how they currently diff against HEAD. Define support for --branch origin/feature-branch without requiring a checkout or worktree; done means a remote branch or PR can be reviewed while the current working state remains unchanged.
