| description | Full pre-PR merge-readiness check. Run this before opening or merging a pull request — it validates local gates (lint, format, tests), CI status, screenshot evidence, and PR metadata in one pass. Also useful for reviewing an existing PR's readiness. |

PR Preflight
One-command merge-readiness check that combines local gates, CI status, and PR policy checks. Mirrors what reviewers look for so issues are caught before review, not during.
Check an existing PR
scripts/check_pr.sh <pr_number>
This runs:
- PR metadata — fetches title, state, draft status, merge state, branch info
- CI checks — counts pass/fail/pending GitHub Actions checks
- Local gates — runs lint, format, and tests locally:
uv run ruff check .
uv run ruff format --check .
uv run pytest tests/ -x --timeout=60
- PR body policy — validates required sections, evidence links, and blocked artifacts
- Verdict —
READY or NOT_READY with specific reasons
Options
| Flag | Purpose |
|---|
--repo OWNER/REPO | Override repository (default: auto-detect via gh) |
--no-tests | Skip local test gates (useful when you just want CI + metadata check) |
Exit codes
| Code | Meaning |
|---|
| 0 | All checks passed — ready to merge |
| 1 | Script error (missing tool, network failure) |
| 2 | Not ready — at least one check failed |
Run local gates only (no PR needed)
If you haven't opened a PR yet and just want to validate locally:
uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check . && uv run pytest tests/ -x --timeout=60
Or use the pre-commit hook (auto-runs lint on commit):
git config core.hooksPath .githooks
What blocks merge
The script reports NOT_READY if any of these are true:
- PR is not in OPEN state
- PR is still a draft
- Merge state is not CLEAN or HAS_HOOKS
- Any CI check is failing
- Any CI check is still pending
- Local gates (lint/format/tests) fail
- PR body policy fails, such as missing evidence for runtime/viewer/client changes
Typical workflow
uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check . && uv run pytest tests/ -x --timeout=60
git push origin my-branch
gh pr create --title "feat: ..." --body "..."
scripts/check_pr.sh <pr_number>
