description	Use GitHub CLI (gh) to fetch PR details, review comments, and threads for the current branch before addressing code review feedback.

GitHub CLI Code Review

Goal

When addressing code review comments, do not rely on user-provided summaries. Use gh to pull the authoritative review threads for the PR associated with the current branch.

Assume git authentication is available via SSH and does not block access.

When to use this skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Address PR review feedback
• Confirm what reviewers actually requested
• Avoid missing unresolved threads

Default tool order

1. Identify the PR for the current branch using gh
2. Pull review threads/comments and extract actionable items
3. Implement fixes
4. Re-check PR thread state (optional)

Recommended commands

# Confirm we’re in a git repo and on the expected branch
git status

# Find the PR associated with the current branch
gh pr view --json number,title,url,headRefName,baseRefName,author

# Get the full set of review threads (includes unresolved/resolved state)
gh pr view --json reviewThreads

# Quick human-readable view
gh pr view

# List PR comments (timeline entries)
gh pr view --comments

Workflow tips

• Prefer gh pr view --json ... and then parse, because it includes thread resolution state.
• If multiple PRs exist, use gh pr list --head <branch> --json number,title,url and pick the one matching the current head branch.

Critical invariants

• Don’t ask the user to paste review comments unless gh fails.
• Don’t assume the PR number; discover it.
• Avoid rewriting unrelated code—stick to the requested deltas.
