SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Reviewing a teammate's pull request thoroughly is hard: reviewers often skim diffs, miss linked issue context, lose track of prior review threads, and hesitate to ask clarifying questions. This Skill structures the human review process so the reviewer actually understands the change before approving it. ## Core Features & Use Cases - PR and Issue Summarization: Uses the GitHub CLI (gh) to inspect the PR title, description, changed files, commits, and linked issues, then produces a reviewer-focused summary of what changed, data flow changes, rationale, and risks. - Follow-Up Review Tracking: For non-first-pass reviews, surfaces unresolved prior review comments and highlights what changed since the reviewer's last activity. - Understanding Quiz: Asks at least three targeted questions about data flow, control points, and design rationale to verify the reviewer's comprehension. - Approved Comment Posting: Drafts clarification comments for confusing areas and posts them only after explicit approval, always prefixed with [AI-assisted]. - Use Case: A reviewer returning to a long-running PR asks the assistant to walk them through it; the assistant summarizes the delta since their last review, quizzes them on the new data flow, and posts an approved [AI-assisted] comment asking the author to explain a hidden assumption. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to guide you through reviewing a specific GitHub pull request by providing its URL.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get guided help reviewing a GitHub pull request?▼

Provide the PR URL and the workflow inspects the title, description, changed files, commits, and linked issues using the gh CLI. It then gives you a reviewer-focused summary covering what changed, data flow changes, rationale, and risks.

How to review a PR a second time after requesting changes?▼

For follow-up reviews, the workflow checks unresolved prior review comments and summarizes what changed since your last review activity, including new commits, updated files, and affected behavior. This lets you focus only on the delta and open threads.

Does this workflow post PR comments automatically?▼

No, comments are never posted preemptively. The assistant may propose specific comment text when you are confused about something, but it posts only after your explicit approval, and every posted comment starts with the [AI-assisted] prefix.

What tool does it use to inspect GitHub pull requests?▼

It uses the GitHub CLI (gh) for all PR and issue inspection, including reading the PR body, changed files, commit history, linked issues, and prior review comment threads. You need gh installed and authenticated.

When is this guided review workflow not appropriate?▼

It is not a replacement for making direct code changes or automated code analysis. It is designed for interactive human review coaching, so use static analysis or CI tooling instead when you need automated linting, testing, or vulnerability scanning.
