SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Maintainers spend time triaging, prioritizing, and performing small fixes across many open PRs; this Skill automates the daytime maintainer loop to pick the highest-value version-targeted work and drive it toward merge readiness without merging.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deterministic Triage & Scoring: Builds a ranked queue of merge-now, review-ready, and near-miss PRs using CI status, merge state, CodeRabbit findings, and risky-file detection.
  • Automated Gate Checks & Actions: Runs merge-gate verification, hotspot analysis, security sweeps, salvage fixes, test-gap closure workflows, and state updates; can push narrow fixes and approve when gates pass.
  • Use Case: During a 10-minute loop, pick the top version-labeled PR, run the gate checker, apply a small salvage change if needed, update the maintainer state, and report progress to accelerate daily backlog reduction.

Quick Start

Run the NemoClaw maintainer day loop to pick the highest-value version-targeted PR and execute the appropriate workflow (merge gate, salvage, security sweep, test gaps, hotspot cooling, or sequencing).

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub pull request triage for version-targeted PRs?

Automate GitHub pull request triage by running deterministic gh and git checks to build a ranked queue of merge-ready, review-ready, and near-miss PRs using CI status, merge state, and risky-file detection. This scoring approach prioritizes highest-value version-labeled work to actively reduce backlog.

What is a maintainer daytime loop for reducing pull request backlog?

A maintainer daytime loop is an automated process that picks the top version-labeled PR and executes merge gate checks, salvage fixes, security sweeps, test-gap closures, and hotspot cooling. It drives PRs toward merge readiness and pushes small fixes while preventing unreviewed merges.

Can I push small fixes and approve PRs automatically without merging them?

Yes, you can push narrow salvage fixes and approve PRs automatically when merge gates pass. The automated workflow runs gate verification and hotspot analysis while explicitly preventing unreviewed merges to ensure maintainer oversight over the final integration step.

How do I run security sweeps and hotspot analysis on open pull requests?

Run security sweeps and hotspot analysis on open pull requests by executing automated workflows during the triage loop. The process performs deterministic checks, detects risky files, and analyzes code hotspots to cool down high-risk areas before approving any changes.

Does this automated triage workflow require CodeRabbit findings to score PRs?

CodeRabbit findings are used alongside CI status, merge state, and risky-file detection to build the ranked triage queue, but the workflow relies primarily on deterministic gh and git checks. It combines these signals to score merge-ready and near-miss PRs effectively.
