What problem does it solve?

PR issues like CI failures, merge conflicts, or a base-branch behind prevent smooth merging. This skill provides a structured approach to diagnose and remediate these problems to restore PR health and speed up merges.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Diagnose PR state via GitHub CLI and summarize actionable issues (CI, mergeability, base drift).
  • Recommend and apply safe, minimal fixes (rebase, merge, or re-run checks) and guide the developer through the commit/push cycle.
  • Generate a concise post-fix plan and documentation to support recheck and merge readiness.

Quick Start

Use this skill to diagnose a stalled PR and generate a deterministic fix path for a smooth merge.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fix a GitHub pull request with CI failures and merge conflicts?▼

Diagnose the PR state using GitHub CLI to assess CI failures, mergeability, and base branch drift, then apply safe corrective steps like rebase, merge, or re-running checks to restore PR health.

What is the best way to resolve a pull request that is behind the base branch?▼

Resolve a pull request behind the base branch by rebasing or merging the latest changes, then guide the commit and push cycle to restore merge readiness and document the fix for recheck.

How do I diagnose a stalled GitHub PR and generate a deterministic fix path?▼

Leverage the gh pr view command to summarize actionable issues like CI failures, merge conflicts, and base drift, generating a concise post-fix plan and documentation to support recheck and merge.

Can I use GitHub CLI to assess mergeability and identify failing tests across workflows?▼

Yes, GitHub CLI assesses PR state to identify failing tests across GitHub workflows and mergeability issues, recommending safe, minimal fixes to restore PR health and speed up merges.

Why does my pull request fail to merge after the base branch is updated?▼

Base branch drift causes merge failures after updates, requiring a rebase or merge to resolve conflicts, followed by re-running CI checks and documenting decisions for recheck and merge readiness.
