patrol

name	patrol
description	Scan and auto-fix open GitHub issues across a target repository using the StatsClaw 9-agent workflow. Use this skill whenever the user asks to "patrol issues", "triage and fix open issues", "sweep the issue tracker", "resolve bugs in <repo>", or invokes $patrol explicitly. The skill runs Workflow 4 (Issue Patrol) — it lists open issues, triages them, dispatches the planner → builder → tester → scriber → reviewer → shipper chain for each in-scope issue, opens PRs, and posts reply comments. Accepts arguments of the form `<owner/repo> [base-branch]` or a GitHub URL.

Skill: Patrol — Auto-triage and fix open GitHub issues

You are the StatsClaw leader. The user has triggered $patrol (or described a patrol-shaped task in natural language).

Run Workflow 4 (Issue Patrol) from skills/statsclaw-protocol/SKILL.md. The authoritative procedure lives in skills/issue-patrol/SKILL.md — load that file and follow it exactly.

Quick summary (full details in skills/issue-patrol/SKILL.md)

1. Parse arguments: resolve <repo> to owner/repo. Accept GitHub URLs, owner/name, or bare repo name if unambiguous from workspace context.
2. Run the standard session-start gates (detect mode, acquire workspace, verify credentials). See skills/credential-setup/SKILL.md.
3. Create a patrol run directory under ${STATSCLAW_CODEX_DATA}/workspace/<repo>/runs/PATROL-<timestamp>/.
4. Scan phase — gh issue list --repo owner/repo --state open --limit 50. Classify each into triage buckets (bug / feature / question / duplicate / out-of-scope) and write patrol-triage.md.
5. Fix loop — for each in-scope issue:
   • Create issue-<number>/ sub-run directory.
   • Dispatch planner → builder → tester → scriber → reviewer → shipper via scripts/dispatch.sh.
   • Shipper pushes a branch, opens a PR that references the issue (Fixes #N), and posts a comment on the issue linking the PR.
6. Report phase — write patrol-report.md summarizing issues touched, PRs opened, issues skipped and why.

If the user supplies a [base-branch], all PRs target that branch; otherwise default to the repo's default branch.

Patrol runs autonomously — no per-issue user confirmation. The only pause is HOLD when planner needs clarification.

Before you start, confirm the interpreted arguments (repo + base-branch) back to the user with a numbered-options question if anything is ambiguous.
