SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines pull request review by turning noisy feedback into a disciplined workflow that verifies suggestions against the codebase before making changes. It helps teams avoid superficial agreement, catch real defects, and keep review decisions tied to technical evidence.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • PR discovery and setup: Finds the target pull request from the branch, current context, or GitHub listing and prepares the right working branch or worktree.
  • Structured review modes: Supports automated fix, automated merge, and deliberate review flows so the process matches the level of human oversight needed.
  • Fresh-context subagent review: Dispatches a separate reviewer to inspect the full diff, post inline findings, and keep review judgments independent from implementation context.
  • Feedback triage and response: Collects external comments, categorizes actionable items, fixes what is valid, and dismisses false positives with technical reasoning.
  • PR closure workflow: Rebases when needed, applies fixes, posts a summary comment, and can hand off cleanly to merge completion.

Quick Start

Use the pr-review skill to review the current pull request, validate feedback against the codebase, and address or dismiss findings before posting the final PR summary.
