# Investigating GitHub pull requests
This document contains useful patterns for inspecting a single GitHub pull request.
## How to view pull request context
Use `Show-PullRequestComments.ps1` to view all pull request comments, review
decisions, issue comments, review submissions, and inline review comments.
```shell
pwsh ./eng/docker-tools/skill-helpers/Show-PullRequestComments.ps1 $prNumber [-Repo "$owner/$repo"]
```
## How to view pull request checks and logs
Use `Show-PullRequestBuilds.ps1` to view the GitHub status check summary,
including a detailed view of Azure Pipelines build checks.
```shell
pwsh ./eng/docker-tools/skill-helpers/Show-PullRequestBuilds.ps1 -PullRequest $prNumber [-Repo "$owner/$repo"]
```
## How to read Azure Pipelines logs
First, get the log ID from the build timeline.
Then, use `Get-BuildLog.ps1` to print the full log:
```shell
pwsh ./eng/docker-tools/skill-helpers/Get-BuildLog.ps1 -Organization dnceng-public -Project public -BuildId $buildId -LogId $logId
```
