review-pr-local

name	review-pr-local
description	Run the repository PR review workflow locally from the current branch using temporary-directory snapshots and the same review.json contract as CI.

review-pr-local

Use this skill after local implementation work and before pushing or creating a PR. It prepares the same review inputs used by the GitHub review workflow, then delegates review logic to review-pr.

Workflow

1. From the repository root, prepare local review inputs. This prefers the GitHub PR associated with the current branch for pr_description.txt, then falls back to locally built PR metadata when the GitHub PR cannot be fetched. The pr_diff.txt snapshot is built from the local worktree diff. The command writes snapshots to a temporary directory and prints the selected review skill as skill=<path> plus exact file paths:

   python3 .github/scripts/prepare_local_review_inputs.py
   

2. Read the skill path printed by the command.
3. Follow the selected skill exactly. It will apply any referenced local companion guidance when present.
4. Use only the printed snapshot paths as review inputs:
   • pr_description_path
   • pr_diff_path
   • spec_context_path when non-empty
5. Inspect repository files from the current repository root when the review skill needs source context.
6. Write the review output only to the printed review_path.
7. Validate the review output:

   python3 .github/scripts/validate_review_json.py <pr_diff_path> <review_path>
   

8. Validate that the review phase did not mutate repository files:

   python3 .github/scripts/validate_local_review_result.py \
     --baseline-status <baseline_status_path>
   

Safety Rules

• After input preparation, do not run git add, git commit, git push, gh, or GitHub API commands.
• Do not post comments or mutate GitHub state.
• Do not modify source, workflow, tests, specs, or skill files.
• If review discovers issues, report them through review.json; do not fix code during this skill.
