Gemini Review Integrator

Gemini Review Integrator

Integrate Gemini Code Assist inline review comments into the canonical pr-review-toolkit PR review comment.

Contract

Use .pr-review-cache/pr-#.json as the only PR review state file. Do not create extra cache files or extra PR comments. Do not commit, push, merge, or directly call gh api to update the canonical review comment.

This skill integrates external Gemini feedback only. It is not a review producer, resolver, or fixer:

• It does not run codex-review-pass.
• It does not ask the user to resolve findings.
• It does not modify source files.
• It preserves Claude, Codex, and existing Gemini issues.

Find the toolkit root in this order:

1. Use PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT when set. This is the supported path.

2. If PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT is unset, derive the packaged plugin root from the skill path. This SKILL.md lives at <root>/codex/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md, so <root> is exactly three levels up. Ensure SKILL_PATH is set in the environment to the absolute path of this SKILL.md before running the snippet:

   : "${SKILL_PATH:?SKILL_PATH must be set to the absolute path of this SKILL.md}"
   PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT="$(cd "$(dirname "$SKILL_PATH")/../../.." && pwd)"
   

   Verify both <root>/.codex-plugin/plugin.json and <root>/scripts/cache-write-comment.sh exist. If either is missing, treat derivation as failed and proceed to step 3.

3. Stop and ask the dev agent for PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT.

Canonicalize the root before using helper scripts:

PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT="$(cd "$PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT" && pwd)"

Use only these scripts for review state:

"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/get-pr-number.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/fetch-gemini-comments.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/cache-read-comment.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/cache-write-comment.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/cache-sync.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/extract-content-hash.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/disambiguate-stale-source.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/review-metadata-upgrade.sh"
"${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/review-metadata-replace.sh"

Before running the workflow, verify these helper scripts are executable and scripts/lib/common.sh is readable.

Workflow

1. Get the PR number with get-pr-number.sh.

2. Read the canonical review comment with cache-read-comment.sh "$PR_NUMBER":

   set +e
   EXISTING_CONTENT=$("${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/cache-read-comment.sh" "$PR_NUMBER")
   rc=$?
   set -e
   
   case $rc in
     0) ;;
     2) echo "No canonical review comment found. Run pr-review-and-document first." >&2; exit 2 ;;
     *) echo "cache-read-comment.sh failed with exit $rc" >&2; exit "$rc" ;;
   esac
   

   cache-read-comment.sh exits 2 if no canonical comment exists — there is no need for a separate find-review-comment.sh precheck (it would return empty stdout with rc=0 and silently look like success).

3. Extract the cache content_hash for CAS via the shared helper. The helper does file-existence check, jq read with rc capture, regex validation, and triggers cache-sync.sh on any failure (with rc propagation and post-recovery validation):

   set +e
   EXPECTED_CONTENT_HASH=$("${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/extract-content-hash.sh" "$PR_NUMBER")
   rc=$?
   set -e
   
   case $rc in
     0) ;;
     2) echo "Cache was refreshed; re-read EXISTING_CONTENT and retry from Step 2." >&2; exit 2 ;;
     *) exit "$rc" ;;
   esac
   

   Unit-tested in tests/extract-content-hash-test.sh.

4. Fetch Gemini comments with explicit error handling. The script can fail for several reasons (gh auth expired, GitHub 5xx, network timeout, malformed PR) — collapsing those into "no Gemini comments" silently masks integration failures:

   set +e
   GEMINI_RAW=$("${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/fetch-gemini-comments.sh" "$PR_NUMBER")
   gemini_rc=$?
   set -e
   
   if [ "$gemini_rc" -ne 0 ]; then
     echo "Error: fetch-gemini-comments.sh failed (rc=$gemini_rc). Stopping integration; the canonical comment is unchanged." >&2
     exit "$gemini_rc"
   fi
   
   if ! printf '%s' "$GEMINI_RAW" | jq -e 'type == "array"' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
     echo "Error: fetch-gemini-comments.sh returned non-array JSON. Stopping integration." >&2
     exit 2
   fi
   
   GEMINI_COMMENTS="$GEMINI_RAW"
   

   An empty array ([]) is a valid "no Gemini comments yet" result and must be reported distinctly from a fetch failure.

5. Filter comments:

   • Exclude is_outdated: true.
   • Prefer existing metadata review_sources.gemini.consumed_comment_ids.
   • Fall back to legacy gemini_integrated_ids.
   • Exclude IDs already consumed.

6. Categorize new Gemini comments:

   Gemini priority	Category
   high + is_security	critical
   high	important
   medium + is_security	important
   medium	suggestion
   low	suggestion

   Unknown priority values must not be silently dropped. Categorize them as suggestion and add a non-canonical follow-up note naming the unknown priority so it can be triaged later.

7. Format each new Gemini issue. The outer markdown example uses four backticks so the inner suggestion fence (three backticks) is not consumed as the closing delimiter:

   <details>
   <summary><b>N. ⚠️ [Gemini] Issue title</b></summary>
   
   **Source:** Gemini Code Assist
   **File:** `path/to/file.ts:42`
   **Gemini Comment ID:** `123456789`
   
   **Problem:** ...
   
   **Suggested Fix:**
   ```suggestion
   code here
   ```
   
   </details>
   

   Preserve Gemini's suggestion block when present. Keep content concise enough that the final PR comment stays below GitHub limits.

8. Insert new Gemini issues into the canonical severity sections:

   • ### 🔴 Critical Issues
   • ### 🟡 Important Issues
   • ### 💡 Suggestions

9. Renumber affected issue sections and update summary counts. Preserve existing issue statuses.

10. Upgrade metadata to schema 1.1:

    METADATA_JSON=$(printf '%s\n' "$EXISTING_CONTENT" \
      | "${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/review-metadata-upgrade.sh" \
          --stdin --last-writer gemini-review-integrator)
    

11. Dual-write Gemini metadata during the compatibility window:

    • Add newly consumed integer IDs to review_sources.gemini.consumed_comment_ids.
    • Add the same IDs to legacy gemini_integrated_ids.
    • Set both review_sources.gemini.last_integrated_at and legacy gemini_integration_date to the current UTC timestamp.
    • Set last_writer / skill as appropriate for gemini-review-integrator.
    • Preserve review_sources.codex, review_sources.claude, [Codex] issues, and untagged Claude issues.
    • Keep review_round unchanged. Gemini integration is not a review producer.

12. Replace the hidden metadata block with review-metadata-replace.sh. The script requires a metadata JSON file path; pipe the comment over stdin:

    METADATA_FILE=$(mktemp)
    trap 'rm -f "$METADATA_FILE"' EXIT
    printf '%s' "$METADATA_JSON" > "$METADATA_FILE"
    
    UPDATED_CONTENT=$(printf '%s\n' "$EXISTING_CONTENT" \
      | "${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/review-metadata-replace.sh" \
          --stdin --metadata-file "$METADATA_FILE")
    

13. Write through cache-write-comment.sh --stdin "$PR_NUMBER" --expected-content-hash "$EXPECTED_CONTENT_HASH":

    printf '%s\n' "$UPDATED_CONTENT" \
      | "${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/cache-write-comment.sh" \
          --stdin "$PR_NUMBER" --expected-content-hash "$EXPECTED_CONTENT_HASH"
    

14. Handle cache-write-comment.sh exit codes (see cache-write-comment.sh:22-25):

    • 0: success.

    • 1: covers two distinct failure modes — disambiguate via the shared helper:

      set +e
      "${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/disambiguate-stale-source.sh" "$PR_NUMBER"
      disambig_rc=$?
      set -e
      
      case $disambig_rc in
        1)  exit 1 ;;  # Nominal: recovery advice on stderr; follow it.
        10) echo "Cannot disambiguate cache-write-comment.sh exit 1 cause; manual intervention required." >&2; exit 10 ;;
        *)  echo "disambiguate-stale-source.sh exited unexpectedly (rc=$disambig_rc)" >&2; exit "$disambig_rc" ;;
      esac
      

      Unit-tested in tests/disambiguate-stale-source-test.sh.

    • 2: local error; abort.

    • 3: remote is newer; re-fetch with ${PR_REVIEW_TOOLKIT_ROOT}/scripts/cache-sync.sh "$PR_NUMBER" (it does a force-refresh internally), then redo Steps 2-13 against the fresh content.

    • 4: CAS hash mismatch. Re-run Step 2 (cache-read-comment.sh) to refresh $EXISTING_CONTENT, re-run Step 3 to recapture and re-validate EXPECTED_CONTENT_HASH, re-merge only the new Gemini integrations into the newer content, and retry once. If the retry also exits 4, report CAS conflict: another writer holds the lock with the current content hash and stop.

Gemini Comment Handling

fetch-gemini-comments.sh returns JSON entries with:

{
  "id": 123456789,
  "priority": "high",
  "is_security": false,
  "is_outdated": false,
  "file": "path/to/file.ts",
  "line": 42,
  "body": "full comment body",
  "suggestion": "code suggestion if any",
  "created_at": "2026-01-26T10:00:00Z"
}

Outdated comments have is_outdated: true and must be skipped because the code has changed. ID-based deduplication is the source of truth for repeated integration runs.

Status Indicators

New Gemini issues start as ⚠️ pending review. Later resolver runs may mark them:

• ✅ Fixed
• ⏭️ Deferred
• ⏭️ N/A
• ⏭️ Duplicate
• 🔴 escalated/blocking
