description	Request or re-request a GitHub Copilot review on a Pull Request. Use when the user says "copilot review", "request copilot review", "add copilot as reviewer", "Copilot にレビュー依頼", "再レビュー", or any variation of requesting GitHub Copilot to review a PR. Also triggers when the user wants to add a bot reviewer to a PR. If no PR number is given, operates on the current branch's PR.

Request Copilot Review

Request copilot-pull-request-reviewer[bot] to review a GitHub PR. Automatically detects whether this is an initial request or a re-review.

Arguments

Argument	Required	Description
<PR>	No	PR number (e.g., 123) or URL. If omitted, uses the PR for the current branch.

Workflow

Run the following steps using Bash. All output messages should be in English.

Step 1: Resolve PR

# With argument:
gh pr view <PR> --json number,url --jq '{number: .number, url: .url}'

# Without argument (current branch):
gh pr view --json number,url --jq '{number: .number, url: .url}'

If this fails, output the following and stop — do not proceed:

No PR found for the current branch. Create a PR first.

Step 2: Check if a review request is already pending

gh pr view <NUMBER> --json reviewRequests --jq '[.reviewRequests[] | select(.login == "Copilot" or .login == "copilot-pull-request-reviewer[bot]")] | length'

If the result is > 0, output and stop:

Copilot review already pending on PR #.

Step 3: Request review via GitHub API

Both initial requests and re-reviews use the same API endpoint — GitHub handles the distinction automatically. gh pr edit --add-reviewer does not support bot accounts, so use the REST API directly:

Construct the command as a single line (glob permission patterns don't match across newlines):

gh repo view --json nameWithOwner --jq '.nameWithOwner'

Then use the result:

gh api "repos/<REPO>/pulls/<NUMBER>/requested_reviewers" -X POST -f 'reviewers[]=copilot-pull-request-reviewer[bot]'

If the API call succeeds, output:

Requested Copilot review on PR #.

If the API call fails, output the error message from gh api as-is so the user can diagnose.
