github-pr-review

Handles PR review comments and feedback resolution. Use when user wants to resolve PR comments, handle review feedback, fix review comments, address PR review, check review status, respond to reviewer, verify PR readiness, review PR comments, analyze review feedback, evaluate PR comments, assess review suggestions, or triage PR comments. Fetches comments via GitHub CLI, classifies by severity, applies fixes with user confirmation, commits with proper format, replies to threads.

# GitHub PR review

Resolves Pull Request review comments with severity-based prioritization, fix application, and thread replies.

## Current PR

!`gh pr view --json number,title,state,milestone -q '"PR #\(.number): \(.title) (\(.state)) | Milestone: \(.milestone.title // "none")"' 2>/dev/null`

## Core workflow

### 1. Fetch, filter, and classify comments

```bash
REPO=$(gh repo view --json nameWithOwner -q '.nameWithOwner')
PR=$(gh pr view --json number -q '.number')
LAST_PUSH=$(git log -1 --format=%cI HEAD)

# Inline review comments - filter out replies (keep only originals)
gh api repos/$REPO/pulls/$PR/comments?per_page=100 --jq '
  [.[] | select(.in_reply_to_id == null) |
   {id, path, user: .user.login, created_at, body: .body[0:200]}]
'

# PR-level reviews with non-empty body (CodeRabbit sections, Gemini, etc.)
gh api repos/$REPO/pulls/$PR/reviews?per_page=100 --jq '
  [.[] | select(.body | length > 0) |
   {id, user: .user.login, state, submitted_at, body: .body[0:500]}]
'
```

**Cross-check review-attached comments**: CodeRabbit's review body states "Actionable comments posted: N". If the general `pulls/$PR/comments` endpoint returns fewer than N new originals from that reviewer, some comments are only available via the review-specific endpoint. Fetch them and merge by comment ID:

```bash
# $REVIEW_ID from the reviews fetch above; $EXPECTED from parsing "Actionable comments posted: N"
gh api repos/$REPO/pulls/$PR/reviews/$REVIEW_ID/comments?per_page=100 --jq '
  [.[] | select(.in_reply_to_id == null) |
   {id, path, user: .user.login, created_at, body: .body[0:200]}]
'
```

Deduplicate by `id` before continuing. Comments found only via the review-specific endpoint are valid inline comments and should be treated identically (same classification, same `in_reply_to` reply mechanism).

**Filter new vs already-seen**: compare `created_at`/`submitted_at` with `$LAST_PUSH`. Comments posted after the last push are new. Mark older comments as "previous round" in the summary table.

**Parse CodeRabbit review bodies**: the initial fetch truncates bodies for classification. For reviews from CodeRabbit (`user.login` starts with `coderabbitai`), fetch the full body separately:

```bash
gh api repos/$REPO/pulls/$PR/reviews?per_page=100 --jq '
  [.[] | select(.user.login | startswith("coderabbitai")) |
   {id, submitted_at, body}]
'
```

CodeRabbit posts structured `<details>` blocks containing outside-diff, duplicate, and nitpick comments. Each block includes file path, line range, severity, and optionally a "Prompt for AI Agents" with pre-built context. See `references/coderabbit_parsing.md` for full parsing guide.

**Use CodeRabbit AI prompts when available**: if a comment (or the review body) contains a "Prompt for AI Agents" `<details>` block, use it to understand the issue and suggested approach. Always read the actual code before proposing a fix. If the review body contains a "Prompt for all review comments with AI agents" block, read it first for cross-comment context before processing individual comments.

Classify all comments by severity and process in order: CRITICAL > HIGH > MEDIUM > LOW.

| Severity | Indicators | Action |
|----------|------------|--------|
| CRITICAL | `critical.svg`, `_🔒 Security_`, `_🚨 Critical_`, `_🔴 Critical_`, "security", "vulnerability" | Must fix |
| HIGH | `high-priority.svg`, `_⚠️ Potential issue_`, `_🐛 Bug_`, `_⚡ Performance_`, `_🟠 Major_`, "High Severity" | Should fix |
| MEDIUM | `medium-priority.svg`, `_🛠️ Refactor suggestion_`, `_💡 Suggestion_`, "Medium Severity" | Recommended |
| LOW | `low-priority.svg`, `_🧹 Nitpick_`, `_🔧 Optional_`, `_🟡 Minor_`, `_🔵 Trivial_`, `_⚪ Info_`, "style", "nit" | Optional |

When a comment has both a type label and a secondary color badge (e.g., `_💡 Suggestion_ | _🟠 Major_`), the color badge is the **binding** severity and overrides the type-based default.

See `references/severity_guide.md` for full detection patterns (Gemini badges, CodeRabbit emoji, Cursor comments, keyword fallback, related comments heuristics).

### 2. Show review summary table

Before processing, display a structured overview of all comments:

```
| # | ID         | Severity | File:Line          | Type     | Status   | Summary            |
|---|------------|----------|--------------------|----------|----------|--------------------|
| 1 | 123456789  | CRITICAL | src/auth.py:45     | inline   | new      | SQL injection risk |
| 2 | 987654321  | HIGH     | src/db.py:346-350  | outside  | new      | Missing join cond  |
| 3 | 555555555  | HIGH     | src/chunk.py:188   | duplicate| previous | Stale metadata     |
| 4 | 444444444  | LOW      | tests/test_q.py:12 | nitpick  | previous | Naming convention  |
```

- **Type**: `inline`, `outside` (outside diff), `duplicate`, `minor`, `nitpick` (from CodeRabbit sections), or `review` (generic PR-level)
- **Status**: `new` (posted after last push) or `previous` (from earlier rounds)
- Group related comments (same file, same root cause, "also applies to" ranges) and note clusters
- Deduplicate: if the same issue appears both as an inline comment and in a CodeRabbit review body section (e.g., duplicate), keep one entry and note both sources

If there are **more than 10 comments**, suggest saving a review summary to Claude's memory for tracking across sessions. The summary should include: PR number, comment IDs, severity, status (new/addressed/deferred/won't fix), and brief description. This helps maintain continuity when new comments arrive after subsequent pushes.

### 3. Process each comment

For each comment, in severity order:

1. **Show context**: comment ID, severity, file:line, quote
2. **Check for AI prompt**: if CodeRabbit "Prompt for AI Agents" is available for this comment, use it to understand the issue and suggested approach
3. **Check for proposed fix**: if CodeRabbit includes a "Proposed fix" or "Suggested fix" code block, use it as a starting point (but verify correctness)
4. **R
