Tmchow Tmc Marketplace Fix Code Review Feedback

fix-code-review-feedback

Address code review feedback from local review agents or GitHub PRs.

This skill fixes feedback, not generates it. Use code review agents to get feedback first, then use this skill to address it.

Core Principles

Agent time is cheap. Tech debt is expensive.

• Fix everything valid - Including nitpicks. Don't carry debt forward.
• Reviewers can be wrong - Verify concerns exist before fixing.
• Quote feedback in replies - Provide context for what was addressed.

Mode Detection

Targeted mode: When user provides a specific feedback URL, ONLY address that feedback. Do not fetch or evaluate other PR feedback unless user explicitly asks.

Local Mode (Post-Review Agent)

When a code review agent has just provided feedback:

1. Parse Feedback

Extract issues from the conversation - typically file:line references with descriptions.

2. Evaluate Each Item

3. Fix All Valid Issues

Read files, implement fixes, verify they work. Do not commit yet.

4. Batch Commit

After ALL fixes are implemented, create a single commit:

git add -A
git commit -m "Address code review feedback

- [list all changes]"

Report what was fixed vs. skipped (with reasons).

PR Mode (GitHub Feedback)

1. Determine Scope

No arguments → Get current branch's PR:

gh pr view --json number,headRefName,baseRefName,url,author

Specific feedback URL provided → Targeted mode:

• Extract thread/comment ID from URL
• Only fetch and address that specific feedback
• Do NOT evaluate other PR feedback unless user asks

2. Fetch Feedback

Targeted mode: Extract the thread ID from the URL and fetch only that thread via GraphQL node() query.

Full mode: Use GraphQL to batch-fetch all threads, comments, and reviews:

gh api graphql -f query='
query($owner: String!, $repo: String!, $pr: Int!) {
  repository(owner: $owner, name: $repo) {
    pullRequest(number: $pr) {
      reviewThreads(first: 100) {
        nodes {
          id
          isResolved
          isOutdated
          path
          line
          comments(first: 50) {
            nodes { id body author { login } createdAt }
          }
        }
      }
      comments(first: 100) {
        nodes { id body author { login } createdAt }
      }
      reviews(first: 50) {
        nodes { id body state author { login } }
      }
    }
  }
}' -f owner="$OWNER" -f repo="$REPO" -F pr="$PR_NUM"

3. Check for Stale Feedback

For comments referencing specific lines, verify the code still matches:

git show HEAD:$FILE_PATH | sed -n "${LINE}p"

If code changed significantly, verify concern still applies before acting.

4. Evaluate Validity

Same framework as Local Mode.

5. Fix All Valid Issues

Read files, implement fixes, verify. Do not commit yet - batch all fixes.

6. Reply to Threads

Quote the original feedback:

> [original feedback]

Addressed: [brief description]

For invalid feedback:

> [original feedback]

Not addressing: [reason with evidence, e.g., "null check exists at line 85"]

Reply via GraphQL:

gh api graphql -f query='
mutation($threadId: ID!, $body: String!) {
  addPullRequestReviewComment(input: {
    pullRequestReviewThreadId: $threadId
    body: $body
  }) { comment { id } }
}' -f threadId="$THREAD_ID" -f body="$REPLY_BODY"

7. Resolve Threads

gh api graphql -f query='
mutation($threadId: ID!) {
  resolveReviewThread(input: { threadId: $threadId }) {
    thread { isResolved }
  }
}' -f threadId="$THREAD_ID"

8. Batch Commit and Push

Single commit for all fixes:

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

- [list all changes]
- [threads resolved]"
git push

GitHub CLI Usage

Always use gh CLI. Fall back to GitHub MCP only if gh fails.

Prefer high-level commands. Only use gh api when required:

Do NOT use gh api for operations that have high-level equivalents.

Validity Evaluation

1. Can I reproduce the concern?
   NO → Skip (explain why)

2. Is concern still relevant to current code?
   NO → Skip (explain code changed)

3. Would the fix improve the code?
   YES → Implement
   NO but concern valid → Implement better alternative
   NO and concern wrong → Skip (explain)

When to ask user: Architectural changes, security implications, conflicting conventions, business logic decisions.
