Pr Feedback Workflow

PR Feedback Workflow

Gather all PR feedback (review comments + CI failures), plan holistically, then execute.

Phase 1: Gather Context

Run both scripts to collect all feedback:

scripts/load-pr-feedback.sh

This fetches:

• PR number, title, and current branch
• All review comments with thread IDs
• All review threads (resolved and unresolved)
• Latest CI/CD run status and failure logs (if any)

Phase 2: Analyse

For each piece of feedback (conversation comments, code review comments, CI failures), categorise:

Look for overlaps where one fix addresses multiple items.

Note the comment type (conversation vs review) as they use different reply mechanisms.

Phase 3: Create Unified Plan

Before making changes, output a plan:

1. Code changes to make (grouped by file)
2. Which review comments each change addresses
3. Which CI failures each change fixes
4. Comments that need explanation-only replies
5. Out-of-scope items to convert to issues

Ask: "Ready to execute this plan?"

Wait for confirmation.

Phase 4: Execute

1. Apply code fixes

Make all code changes, then commit:

git add -A
git commit -m "Address PR feedback

- [summary of changes]
- Fixes review comments from @reviewer
- Resolves CI failure in [workflow]"
git push

2. Reply to comments

For code review comments (attached to specific lines):

gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/comments/{comment_id}/replies \
  -f body="✅ Fixed: [description of change]"

For PR conversation comments (general discussion):

gh pr comment {PR_NUMBER} -b "Replying to @{author}: [response]"

Reply templates:

• Fix applied: ✅ Fixed: [what was changed]
• No change needed: ℹ️ No change required: [explanation]
• Out of scope: 📝 Good suggestion, tracked as #[issue_number]
• Acknowledgement: 👍 Thanks for the feedback, [response]

3. Create issues for out-of-scope items

gh issue create \
  -t "Enhancement: [title]" \
  -b "Suggested during PR review of #[PR_NUMBER].

## Context
[Original comment]

## Suggested approach
[Implementation ideas]"

4. Resolve review threads

Use the helper script:

scripts/resolve-thread.sh <THREAD_ID>

Or manually via GraphQL:

gh api graphql -f query='
  mutation {
    resolveReviewThread(input: {threadId: "<THREAD_ID>"}) {
      thread { id isResolved }
    }
  }'

5. Verify CI passes

Wait for CI to complete after pushing:

gh run watch

If still failing, repeat analysis on new logs.

Phase 5: Summarise and Approve

Post a summary comment and approve:

gh pr comment -b "## PR Feedback Summary

### Review Comments
- ✅ X comments addressed with code changes
- ℹ️ Y comments resolved with explanations  
- 📝 Z suggestions tracked as new issues

### CI/CD
- [Status of workflow runs]

### Changes Made
- [List of commits/changes]

All feedback has been addressed."

gh pr review --approve -b "All review comments addressed and CI passing."
