SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

pr-poller removes the manual burden of continuously checking GitHub for merged, closed, and Renovate-related pull requests, then routing each result to the correct follow-up workflow without duplicate processing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pull Request Polling: Collects merged and closed PRs from GitHub using the gh CLI and identifies items that still need retrospectives.
  • Dependency Upgrade Routing: Detects open PRs with Renovate-related labels and dispatches them to dependency-upgrade handling.
  • Operational Guardrails: Uses lock-based concurrency control, lookback tracking, deduplication, retry logic, and threshold checks to support reliable recurring execution.
  • Use Case: A team member starts the skill after a merge window, and it automatically finds unprocessed PRs, skips already handled items, and reports what follow-up actions were triggered.

Quick Start

Use the pr-poller skill to scan recent merged and closed pull requests, dispatch any needed retrospective or dependency-upgrade follow-ups, and summarize the results.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub pull request polling for retrospectives?▼

Automating GitHub pull request polling for retrospectives requires scanning merged and closed PRs via the gh CLI, applying deduplication and lookback tracking, then sequentially dispatching follow-up tasks to trigger needed retrospective workflows without manual checks.

What's the best way to track merged Renovate pull requests for dependency upgrades?▼

Tracking merged Renovate pull requests for dependency upgrades is handled by detecting open PRs with Renovate-related labels and routing them to dependency-upgrade handling with lock-based concurrency control and threshold-based decisions.

Does automated PR polling work with local Claude Code recurring workflows?▼

Automated PR polling works with local Claude Code recurring workflows by utilizing cached run-state files for lookback tracking, retry handling, and lock-based concurrency to support reliable sequential handoff to downstream tasks.

Do I need the gh CLI installed to poll GitHub pull requests?▼

You need the gh CLI installed to access GitHub pull request polling and follow-up dispatch, as it collects merged and closed PRs, identifies items needing retrospectives, and detects Renovate-labeled dependency upgrades.

How does recurring PR polling avoid duplicate processing of closed pull requests?▼

Recurring PR polling avoids duplicate processing of closed pull requests by maintaining cached run-state files for lookback tracking and deduplication, ensuring previously handled items are skipped during sequential downstream task dispatch.
