Babysit Pr

Skill Active
Part of:Swe Skills

Babysits an open pull request end-to-end by polling every minute, triaging new comments and reviews, handling CI failures, iterating on reviewer scores, and stopping only when the PR is ready to merge. Use when a user says `babysit this PR`, `watch this PR until it's merge-ready`, `handle review feedback on my PR`, or `keep iterating on this PR until reviewers are happy`. Do NOT use for a one-shot PR risk review, merged PR production monitoring, or repo-wide CI debugging with no scoped PR.

Purpose

To automate the process of shepherding a pull request from review to merge-ready status, reducing manual oversight and ensuring continuous progress.

Features

  • End-to-end PR monitoring and management
  • Automated triage of comments and reviews
  • Handling of CI failures and reruns
  • Iterative feedback and score-based gatekeeping
  • Stopping only when PR is merge-ready or blocked

Use Cases

  • Babysit an open PR until it is merge-ready
  • Watch for review comments, change requests, and CI failures continuously
  • Apply small follow-up fixes and push them automatically
  • Keep iterating until a reviewer or review bot gives the highest available score

Non-Goals

  • One-time risk review with no ongoing watch loop
  • Post-merge production impact checks
  • Repo-wide CI triage without a scoped PR
  • Ambiguous product or design decisions requiring user direction

Versioning

  • warning:Release ManagementWhile the code is recent, there is no clear versioning indicated in the SKILL.md frontmatter, package.json, or CHANGELOG, and the README install instructions reference `npx skills install ckorhonen/swe-skills` which may imply installation from main.

Install

  • warning:Installation instructionThe README provides an installation command (`npx skills install ckorhonen/swe-skills`), but it lacks specific examples of how to invoke the `babysit-pr` skill or detailed authentication steps for the `gh` CLI beyond implying its use.

Installation

/plugin install swe-skills@ckorhonen-swe-skills
