      2. get_diff - Get the diff of a pull request.
      3. get_status - Get combined commit status of a head commit in a pull request.
      4. get_files - Get the list of files changed in a pull request. Use with pagination parameters to control the number of results returned.
-     5. get_review_comments - Get review threads on a pull request. Each thread contains logically grouped review comments made on the same code location during pull request reviews. Returns threads with metadata (isResolved, isOutdated, isCollapsed) and their associated comments. Use cursor-based pagination (perPage, after) to control results.

-     7. get_comments - Get comments on a pull request. Use this if user doesn't specifically want review comments. Use with pagination parameters to control the number of results returned.
