This skill ensures all feedback is addressed systematically. ## Prerequisites Ensure `gh` is authenticated. ```bash gh auth status ``` If not logged in, run `gh auth login`. ## Workflow ### 1. Inspect Comments Fetch the comments for the current branch's PR. ```bash gh pr view --comments ``` Or use a custom script if available to list threads. ### 2. Categorize and Plan - List the comments and review threads. - Propose a fix for each. - **Wait for user confirmation** on which comments to address first if there are many. ### 3. Apply Fixes Apply the code changes for the selected comments. ### 4. Respond to Comments Once fixed, respond to the threads as resolved. ```bash gh pr comment <PR_NUMBER> --body "Addressed in latest commit." ``` ## Common Mistakes - **Applying fixes without understanding context**: Always read the surrounding code of a comment. - **Not verifying auth**: Check `gh auth status` before starting. ## When to Use This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview. ## Limitations - Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above. - Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review. - Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
