PR Comment Handler

Guide to find the open PR for the current branch and address its comments with gh CLI. Run all gh commands with elevated network access.

Prereq: ensure gh is authenticated (for example, run gh auth login once), then run gh auth status with escalated permissions (include workflow/repo scopes) so gh commands succeed. If sandboxing blocks gh auth status, rerun it with sandbox_permissions=require_escalated.

1) Inspect comments needing attention

• Run python3 ./scripts/fetch_comments.py which will print out all the comments and review threads on the PR

2) Ask the user for clarification

• Number all the review threads and comments and provide a short summary of what would be required to apply a fix for it
• Ask the user which numbered comments should be addressed

3) If user chooses comments

• Address each selected comment one at a time, in order
• For each comment:
  1. Apply the code fix
  2. Build & verify before committing:
     • Detect the project type and run the appropriate build/test commands:
       • iOS/Swift/Xcode: Prefer Xcode MCP first, then XcodeBuildMCP, and fall back to xcodebuild CLI only if neither MCP is available. Build the relevant scheme/target, then run tests.
       • Node/JS/TS: npm run build / yarn build, then npm test / yarn test
       • Make-based: make, then make test
       • Or whatever build/test setup the project uses
     • At minimum, run tests covering the changed files
     • If the build or tests fail, fix the issue before proceeding — do not commit broken code
  3. Stage only the affected files with git add <files>
  4. Commit with a message that:
     • Summarizes the change on the first line (e.g. Fix null check in parseConfig as requested in review)
     • Includes a blank line, then a short explanation of what the reviewer asked for and what was changed to address it
  5. Push the commit and reply on the PR review thread with a short summary of the fix and the commit hash (e.g. "Added a nil check before accessing the property. (a1b2c3d)")
  6. Move on to the next comment
• For comments the user chose not to address, reply on the PR thread explaining why (e.g. over-engineering, not applicable, etc.) so the reviewer knows their feedback was considered
• After all comments are handled, show a summary of all commits made

4) Post-run summary

• List each commit (hash + message) created during this session
• Ask the user if they want to push the branch

Notes:

• If gh hits auth/rate issues mid-run, prompt the user to re-authenticate with gh auth login, then retry.
