SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It removes the chaos of inconsistent PR review/rework by driving every onboarded repo through the same Copilot-request, comment-triage, fixup, thread-resolution, and checks-wait sequence until the PR is genuinely merge-ready.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Copilot review automation: Request Copilot review, wait for it to post on the PR’s current head SHA, and summarize the review body and inline comments.
  • Structured comment triage: Apply the policy for when to fix-and-push vs when to reply with rationale, including resolving GraphQL review threads after actions are taken.
  • Merge-readiness guardrails: Wait for required checks and stop at a clean, mergeable state without auto-merging, while documenting where the agent needs user authorization.

Quick Start

Use gh-pr-review-loop to push a PR through Copilot review, resolve threads as needed, wait for checks, and stop when the PR is merge-ready.

What is the best way to standardize Copilot PR reviews across multiple repositories?▼

Standardize Copilot PR reviews by using a canonical Copilot-review reusable workflow and local helper scripts to run every onboarded repo through the same request, triage, and checks sequence.
