SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

LingTai developers and operators lack a repeatable, read-only way to see what changed across the entire Lingtai-AI GitHub organization without manually checking each repository for open issues, pull requests, and recent activity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • One-shot org sweep: Uses the GitHub CLI (gh) to list repos, open issues, and open PRs across the Lingtai-AI org with structured JSON output.
  • Digest formatting: Groups results into new/updated PRs, open issues, recently closed items, and stale or blocked items, each with author, age, and URL.
  • Stateful monitoring: Provides a cron/LaunchAgent pattern that stores JSON state and alerts only on new, updated, or closed items to avoid notification spam.
  • Use Case: A maintainer asks what changed across the org this week; the workflow runs the read-only gh queries and returns a single timestamped digest confirming no GitHub state was modified.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to sweep the Lingtai-AI GitHub org and produce a read-only digest of open PRs, open issues, and recent activity.

Frequently Asked Questions about dev-guide-repo-watch

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I list all open issues and PRs across a GitHub organization?

Use gh search issues and gh search prs with the --owner flag and --state open, requesting JSON fields like number, title, repository, author, and updatedAt. This returns structured data you can group into a digest by repo, age, and labels.

How to monitor GitHub repos for changes without spamming alerts?

Store a JSON state file keyed by issue and PR identifiers, then alert only on new, updated, or closed items between runs. Schedule the script with cron or a macOS LaunchAgent and keep logs for validation.

Does gh search prs support the reviewDecision field?

Not on all installed gh versions. Fetch review-decision status separately for a small set of PRs using a command or API that supports that field, and only add reviewDecision to broad searches after verifying local gh support.

Can this workflow modify GitHub issues or pull requests?

No, it is read-only by default and does not comment, label, assign, close, merge, or edit GitHub state unless the human explicitly requests that side effect. Every report includes a footer confirming no GitHub writes occurred.

Why does my GitHub monitor resend the same alerts every run?

This happens when no state file is persisted between runs, so every item appears new. Store state keyed by issue:<repo>#<num> and pr:<repo>#<num>, and confirm the baseline is not resent unless explicitly requested.
