Check Dependabot PRs
This skill is fully scripted, deterministic, and read-only.
The model must not query GitHub itself.
Instead, run the script below and report its output.
The script never merges anything — it only inspects and reports.
Steps
Run the script and report the results table and summary to the user:
python3 ~/.agents/skills/check-dependabot-prs/scripts/check_dependabot_prs.py
Options
The script accepts the following flags:
--owner — GitHub owner/org to search.
Defaults to ryanspletzer.--repo OWNER/NAME — limit results to a specific repo.
Repeatable to include several repos.--json — emit machine-readable JSON instead of the human-readable
report.
Verdicts
Each pull request is assigned exactly one verdict:
READY — no conflicts, checks green (or none), no outstanding review
requirement.NEEDS_APPROVAL — mergeable and green but branch protection requires a
review.CHANGES_REQUESTED — a reviewer requested changes.CHECKS_PENDING — CI is still running.CHECKS_FAILING — one or more checks failed (failing check names are
listed).BEHIND_BASE — branch protection requires the branch to be up to date
with base.CONFLICTS — merge conflicts with base.DRAFT — the PR is a draft.UNKNOWN — GitHub had not finished computing mergeability after
retries.
Note
This skill requires an authenticated gh CLI.
Verify with gh auth status if the script reports authentication errors.
