Workflow Integration Sonar

Sonar Workflow Skill

EXECUTION MODE: You are now executing this skill. DO NOT explain or summarize these instructions to the user. IMMEDIATELY begin the workflow below based on the task context.

Handles Sonar issue workflows - fetching issues from SonarQube, triaging them, and implementing fixes or suppressions.

What This Skill Provides

Workflows (Absorbs 2 Agents)

1. Fetch Issues Workflow - Retrieves Sonar issues for PR

   • Uses SonarQube MCP tool or API
   • Replaces: sonar-issue-fetcher agent

2. Fix Issues Workflow - Processes and resolves issues

   • Triages each issue for fix vs suppress
   • Implements fixes or adds suppressions
   • Replaces: sonar-issue-triager agent

When to Activate This Skill

• Fixing Sonar issues in PRs
• Processing SonarQube quality gate failures
• Implementing code fixes for violations
• Adding justified suppressions

Workflows

Workflow 1: Fetch Issues

Purpose: Fetch Sonar issues for a PR or project.

Input:

• project: SonarQube project key
• pr (optional): Pull request ID
• severities (optional): Filter by severity
• types (optional): Filter by type

Steps:

1. Determine Context

   gh pr view --json number
   

2. Fetch Issues Use MCP tool:

   mcp__sonarqube__search_sonar_issues_in_projects(
     projects: ["{project_key}"],
     pullRequestId: "{pr_number}",
     severities: "{filter}"
   )
   

   Or use script for structure:

   Script: pm-workflow:workflow-integration-sonar

   python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:workflow-integration-sonar:sonar fetch --project {key} [--pr {id}]
   

3. Return Structured List

Output:

{
  "project_key": "...",
  "pull_request_id": "...",
  "issues": [
    {
      "key": "...",
      "type": "BUG|CODE_SMELL|VULNERABILITY",
      "severity": "BLOCKER|CRITICAL|MAJOR|MINOR|INFO",
      "file": "...",
      "line": N,
      "rule": "java:S1234",
      "message": "..."
    }
  ],
  "statistics": {
    "total_issues_fetched": N,
    "by_severity": {...},
    "by_type": {...}
  }
}

Workflow 2: Fix Issues

Purpose: Process Sonar issues and resolve them.

Input: Issue list from Fetch workflow or specific issue keys

Steps:

1. Get Issues If not provided, use Fetch Issues workflow first.

2. Triage Each Issue For each issue:

   Script: pm-workflow:workflow-integration-sonar

   python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:workflow-integration-sonar:sonar triage --issue '{json}'
   

   Script outputs decision:

   {
     "issue_key": "...",
     "action": "fix|suppress",
     "reason": "...",
     "priority": "critical|high|medium|low",
     "suggested_implementation": "...",
     "suppression_string": "// NOSONAR rule - reason"
   }
   

3. Process by Priority Order: critical → high → medium → low

4. Execute Actions

   For fix:

   • Read file at issue location
   • Apply fix using Edit tool
   • Verify fix with Grep

   For suppress:

   • Read file
   • Add suppression comment at line using Edit
   • Include rule key and reason

5. Mark Issues Resolved (Optional)

   mcp__sonarqube__change_sonar_issue_status(
     key: "{issue_key}",
     status: ["accept"]  # or ["falsepositive"]
   )
   

6. Return Summary

Output:

{
  "processed": {
    "fixed": 4,
    "suppressed": 1,
    "failed": 0
  },
  "files_modified": ["..."],
  "status": "success"
}

Scripts

Script: pm-workflow:workflow-integration-sonar → sonar.py

sonar.py fetch

Purpose: Generate structure for fetching Sonar issues.

Usage:

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:workflow-integration-sonar:sonar fetch --project <key> [--pr <id>] [--severities <list>]

Output: JSON with MCP instruction and expected structure

sonar.py triage

Purpose: Analyze a single issue and determine fix vs suppress.

Usage:

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:workflow-integration-sonar:sonar triage --issue '{"key":"...", "rule":"...", ...}'

Output: JSON with action decision

Sonar Fix Guide

Read references/sonar-fix-guide.md

Provides:

• Common rule fixes
• Suppression patterns by language
• Valid suppression reasons

Issue Classification

Always Fix

• BLOCKER severity
• VULNERABILITY type
• Security rules (java:S3649, java:S5131)

Fix Preferred

• CRITICAL severity
• BUG type
• Resource leaks (java:S2095)

May Suppress

• INFO severity
• TODO comments (java:S1135) - if tracked
• Unused fields for reflection (java:S1068)
• Test code patterns (java:S106, java:S2699)

Suppression Format

Java:

// NOSONAR java:S1234 - reason for suppression

JavaScript:

// NOSONAR
