Rabbit Pr

Rabbit PR — Review Comment Handler

Address automated review comments (CodeRabbit, etc.) on a pull request.

Trigger examples

• "rabbit-pr 123"
• "rabbit-pr-fix" (auto-detect PR from current branch)
• "fix review comments on PR 456"
• "address coderabbit feedback on this branch"

Workflow

1. Resolve the PR

• If PR number provided, use it
• Otherwise, detect from current branch: gh pr list --head $(git branch --show-current) --json number --jq '.[0].number'
• If no PR found, abort

2. Fetch PR info and review comments

gh pr view <number> --json title,headRefName,baseRefName,state,mergeable,mergeStateStatus
# Inline file-level comments
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<number>/comments
# Review-level comments (body of each review — often contains actionable feedback)
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<number>/reviews

Important: Comments can live in two places:

• Inline comments (/comments): attached to specific file lines
• Review bodies (/reviews): top-level review summary text, often containing actionable items not tied to specific lines

Fetch both. Filter reviews to those with a non-empty body and state of CHANGES_REQUESTED or COMMENTED. Parse review bodies for actionable items (look for bullet points, code suggestions, or imperative statements).

Skip already-handled comments. For each inline comment, check whether the authenticated user (gh api user --jq .login) already has a reply in its thread — if so, skip it. Otherwise the skill will double-reply when re-run on the same PR.

Classify CodeRabbit severity. CodeRabbit tags items with markers like _⚠️ Potential issue_, _🛠️ Refactor suggestion_, _🧹 Nitpick_. Prioritize Potential issue and Refactor suggestion; treat Nitpick as optional unless the user explicitly asks to address them.

Skip resolved threads. Use the GraphQL API to fetch thread resolution state and skip resolved ones:

gh api graphql -f query='query($owner:String!,$repo:String!,$num:Int!){repository(owner:$owner,name:$repo){pullRequest(number:$num){reviewThreads(first:100){nodes{id isResolved comments(first:1){nodes{databaseId}}}}}}}' -F owner=<owner> -F repo=<repo> -F num=<number>

3. Build the comment checklist

Before doing any work, build a single checklist covering every comment to be processed (inline + review body items, after filtering out resolved/already-replied/nitpick-if-skipped). For each entry capture:

• id — comment id (or review-body-<reviewId>-<n> for review body items)
• location — path:line or review body
• summary — one short line of the issue
• severity — potential issue / refactor / nitpick
• status — one of: fix needed, reply needed, both, done

Render it to the user as a markdown checklist (- [ ] ...) and use TodoWrite to track it. Update the checklist after every action (verify, fix, push, reply, resolve). Show the final checklist state to the user before closing out the workflow in step 9.

4. Checkout the PR branch and pull latest

git checkout <headRefName>
git pull

5. Verify each comment against current code

For inline comments:

1. Read the file and lines referenced
2. Determine if the issue is valid, already fixed, or not applicable
3. Track verdict per comment

For review body items:

1. Parse each actionable item from the review body
2. Identify which files/areas of the codebase each item refers to (may require searching)
3. Read the relevant code and determine if the issue is valid, already fixed, or not applicable
4. Track verdict per item

For each entry, mark verdict in the checklist:

• valid → keep fix needed / both
• already fixed → flip to reply needed (acknowledge in reply)
• not applicable → flip to reply needed (explain why we're declining)

6. Apply fixes for valid issues

• Read surrounding code for context before editing
• Follow existing code patterns and conventions
• Check if the same issue applies to similar code in other files (like ownerId validation across multiple APIs)
• Run linting/typecheck if available to catch issues early
• Update the checklist (mark each item done for the fix portion as you finish it)

7. Resolve conflicts if needed

Check mergeStateStatus:

• If BEHIND: git merge <baseRefName> --no-edit
• If CONFLICTING: merge and resolve conflicts manually
• If CLEAN: skip

8. Commit and push

git add <changed-files>
git commit -m "<prefix>: address review feedback on <PR-title-summary>"
git push origin <headRefName>

• Match the repo's commit-message convention — inspect git log --oneline -20 first. Some repos use fix:, others use no prefix, others use ticket IDs. Don't hard-code fix:.
• Fork PRs: check headRepositoryOwner.login from gh pr view. If it differs from the base repo owner, the push target is the fork remote, not origin. Either add the fork as a remote or skip the push step and tell the user to push manually.

9. Reply to all comments (batched) and resolve threads

Batch all replies into a single bash command to minimize user confirmations. Chain all gh api calls in one Bash invocation:

• Use && when each reply must succeed before continuing (rare).
• Use ; for best-effort: a single failed reply (e.g., 404 on a deleted comment) shouldn't abort the rest.

gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<number>/comments/<id1>/replies -f body="..." ; \
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<number>/comments/<id2>/replies -f body="..." ; \
gh pr comment <number> --body "..."

• Inline comments: gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<number>/comments/<id>/replies -f body="..."
• Review body items: gh pr comment <number> --body "..." referencing the review and listing what was addressed

Each reply should include:

• What was done (fixed / already addressed / not applicable)
• Which commit contains the fix
• Brief explanation of the approach

Resolve threads after replying. For each thread we addressed, resolve it via GraphQL (use the reviewThreads.nodes[].id collected in step 2):

gh api graphql -f query='mutation($id:ID!){resolveReviewThread(input:{threadId:$id}){thread{isResolved}}}' -F id=<threadId>

Mark each checklist item done after its reply (and resolve, if applicable) succeeds.

10. Final checklist & handoff

Before closing out, render the final checklist state to the user as a markdown checklist showing every comment with its final status (done, or skipped — <reason> for nitpicks/already-replied/resolved). Include:

• commit hash(es) pushed
• count of comments fixed / replied / skipped
• any comments that need human follow-up (e.g., disagreed with the bot, fork PR push blocked, merge conflict needing review)

Do not consider the workflow complete until the user has seen this final state.

Key Principles

• Verify before fixing — not all bot comments are valid. Read the actual code first.
• Checklist is the source of truth — every comment must appear in it; every state change must update it.
• Fix broadly — if a comment identifies an issue in one file, check if the same pattern exists elsewhere
• Follow project conventions — match existing error handling, naming, and code style; match commit-message convention from git log
• One commit — batch all fixes into a single commit unless changes are unrelated
• Reply concisely — state what was done, reference the commit hash, explain approach briefly
• Don't double-reply — skip comments where the authenticated user already responded
