Approve Implementation

Approve the implementation and transition the issue to PR-ready state.

Instructions:

Run branch-status check using mcp__mcp-workspace__check_branch_status.
If branch-status reports a base branch other than main, ask the user to confirm this is intentional before proceeding.
Only if the branch-status check passes (exit code 0), run the set-status command and confirm it succeeded:

mcp-coder gh-tool set-status status-08:ready-pr

Note: If the branch-status check fails, report the failures to the user and do not set the label. If the set-status command fails, report the error to the user. Do not use --force unless explicitly asked.

Effect: Changes issue status from status-07:code-review to status-08:ready-pr.

After the label is set, poll for the PR to be created and pass CI. This runs in the background — the background process creates the PR while it polls (up to 600s): Use mcp__mcp-workspace__check_branch_status to poll for the PR and CI status.
