gh-modify-pr

Use this workflow for PR-comment-driven changes.

Inputs

  • PR URL (preferred), e.g. https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/123
  • Optional scope from user (e.g. only one comment, all unresolved comments)

Workflow

  1. Parse owner/repo and PR number from URL.
  2. Inspect PR summary:
    • gh pr view <url> --json number,title,headRefName,baseRefName,files,reviews,reviewDecision
  3. Fetch inline review comments:
    • gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/pulls/<number>/comments
  4. Extract actionable items from comment bodies.
  5. Ensure local repo exists in workspace:
    • If missing: git clone git@github.com:<owner>/<repo>.git
  6. Checkout PR branch in local repo:
    • gh pr checkout <number>
  7. Open affected files and implement requested changes exactly.
  8. Validate changed files quickly (lint/test only if needed or requested).
  9. Commit:
    • git add <files>
    • git commit -m "<clear message>"
  10. Report back with:
  • What changed
  • Commit hash
  • Branch name
  1. Push only if user asks/approves:
  • git push

Rules

  • Prefer minimal diffs that address reviewer intent directly.
  • Do not silently alter unrelated code.
  • If a comment is ambiguous, ask one focused clarification question.
  • If no local repo exists, clone first instead of failing.
  • Include failed attempts in the final operation log when user asks for traceability.
