SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Iteratively stabilizes GitHub PR checks by detecting the correct PR context, waiting for all checks to reach a terminal state, and escalating when failures are external or not safely fixable.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detects the current PR head SHA and tracks checks across pushes to ensure up-to-date status.
  • Analyzes check runs and status contexts, classifies failures, and guides remediation actions.
  • Pushes minimal, targeted fixes and re-checks until the PR checks are green or a blocker is reached.
  • Escalates with precise context when issues are external, flaky, or not safely repairable, integrating with existing review workflows.

Quick Start

Run the prcheckloop skill on a repository with an open PR to drive all checks to green.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate fixing failing GitHub PR checks?

To automate fixing failing GitHub PR checks, this Skill iteratively reconciles PR heads, analyzes check-runs inventory, and pushes minimal fixes until all checks pass. It detects the PR context, tracks head SHA status, and escalates unfixable external failures with context.

What is the best way to handle flaky CI/CD checks on a pull request?

Handling flaky CI/CD checks on a pull request involves classifying check-run failures and escalating when issues are external or flaky. This Skill tracks status contexts across multiple pushes and provides precise context for remediation rather than blindly retrying.

Do I need gh CLI and jq to track GitHub PR check-runs?

Yes, you need gh CLI and jq to track GitHub PR check-runs with this Skill. It requires both tools and repository access to fetch the correct PR context, track the head SHA, inventory check-runs, and push targeted fixes across multiple pushes.

How does iterative pull request check remediation work?

Iterative pull request check remediation works by detecting the current PR head SHA, waiting for all checks to reach a terminal state, and pushing minimal targeted fixes. The Skill re-checks until PR checks are green or a blocker is reached, escalating safely when failures are external.

Why are my GitHub PR checks not turning green after pushing fixes?

GitHub PR checks may not turn green if failures are external, flaky, or not safely repairable. This Skill identifies these specific blockers during check-run classification and escalates with precise context instead of attempting unsafe fixes.
