What problem does it solve?
Manually managing Pear engineering pull requests is error-prone and often violates team workflow rules, leading to missed reviewer requests, incorrect Copilot assignments, unhandled review feedback, and non-compliant PR merges. This skill eliminates that manual overhead by enforcing Pear's standardized PR workflow end-to-end.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Compliant PR Creation and Readying: Automatically runs the required Pear engineering cleanup pass before opening or marking a PR ready for review, and defaults new Codex-authored PRs to ready-for-review unless a draft is explicitly requested.
- Automated Reviewer and Copilot Assignment: Identifies the correct individual engineering reviewers for the repository, requests GitHub Copilot review, and removes accidental broad team reviewer requests to keep review queues targeted.
- Review Feedback and Watch Automation: Handles incoming review comments, creates configurable recurring watch loops to monitor PR status, auto-fix actionable feedback when approved, and land PRs once they are green, approved, and mergeable, with quiet overnight windows to avoid unnecessary notifications.
- Use Case: A Pear engineer opening a feature PR to api.pearcommerce.com can use this skill to automatically request the right reviewers, add Copilot, set up a daily watch loop to handle incoming feedback, and merge the PR once all checks pass without manually tracking each step.
