Best for: Removed and added lines of a single file marked by number through the diff prop, under a header holding only filename and copy

When to use

Assistant replies and agent output that stream code, or lines a reader picks to ask about
Code review of diffs, git patches and diagnostics, with accept, reject and fix actions
Docs snippets and terminal or test logs with line numbers, copy, wrap, folding and search

When not to use

A real git patch spanning several files with old and new numbers: use the Code Block Unified Patch example
A full assistant conversation screen with thread list, transcript and composer: use the AI Chat blocks
A discount or promo code shown for a shopper to copy at checkout: use the Coupon blocks
A release console with environment lanes, a deploy history grid and streaming logs: use the Dev Ops blocks

Agent notes

The diff numbers are typed for this sample; recompute added and removed whenever code changes
Line specs such as highlightedLines, diff and folded count source lines from 1, whatever startLine prints in the gutter
maxLines caps height only on the built-in surface; with CodeBlockContent inside your own ScrollArea, cap that viewport yourself
Hoist transformers to module scope; a new array on every render re-tokenizes the whole file
