File contents

gh-pr

Use this skill for minimal, direct PR operations.

When to use

User says gh pr and asks to open PR, check new comments, or mark comments pending/addressed.
User wants idempotent comment triage between pushes.

Defaults

ADDRESSED_REACTION=+1 (:thumbsup:) means addressed.
PENDING_REACTION=eyes (:eyes:) means in progress.
BOT_REPLY_PREFIX=🤖 marks bot-authored replies.
New comment = no pending/addressed reaction and body does not start with bot prefix.

Core operations

1) Open PR

Use native CLI and avoid over-automation:

gh pr create --title "<title>" --body-file <body.md> --base <base-branch>

2) Pull new comments (idempotent)

Use helper script:

bun skills/gh-pr/scripts/gh_pr_ops.ts queue --repo <owner/repo> --pr <number>

This fetches issue comments, inline review comments, and top-level PR review bodies (including summary reviews from Cursor Bugbot, Hodor, and similar tools), then returns only unmarked, non-bot-prefixed items.

3) Mark pending/addressed (one or many)

--status addressed now resolves GitHub review threads for PR review comments (instead of only adding a reaction). Issue comments still use reactions.

# mark pending when you start work
bun skills/gh-pr/scripts/gh_pr_ops.ts mark --repo <owner/repo> --pr <number> --ids 12345 --status pending

# mark addressed when done
bun skills/gh-pr/scripts/gh_pr_ops.ts mark --repo <owner/repo> --pr <number> --ids 12345 --status addressed

# many
bun skills/gh-pr/scripts/gh_pr_ops.ts mark --repo <owner/repo> --pr <number> --ids 12345,12346,12347 --status addressed

4) Address comment(s) end-to-end

When user says "address comment" (or equivalent), execute this full sequence:

Mark selected comment(s) pending (:eyes:).
Implement the requested fix.
Run relevant verification (tests/lint/build as appropriate).
Commit changes with a clear message.
Push branch.
Mark selected comment(s) addressed (:+1:) only after push and only if actually resolved.

If verification fails or the fix is incomplete, keep the comment in pending state and report what remains.

Workflow

Pull new comments from queue.
Mark picked comments as pending (:eyes:).
Implement the fix.
Verify.
Commit.
Push.
Mark as addressed (:+1:) only if the comment is actually resolved.

Guardrails

Keep behavior deterministic; do not mutate unrelated PR metadata.
Never treat bot-prefixed replies as new feedback.
Mark only comments that were actually handled.
Preserve source URLs and IDs in summaries.
