How does this skill access my GitHub repositories?

The skill uses your local GitHub CLI (gh) installation. You must be authenticated via 'gh auth login' on your machine for the skill to fetch PR data.

What happens if my GitHub session expires?

The skill includes a built-in check for authentication status. If your session is invalid, it will prompt you to re-authenticate before proceeding.

Does it automatically push the fixes to GitHub?

The skill focuses on applying the code changes locally. Once you are satisfied with the fixes, you can use Claude's standard git capabilities to commit and push.

Does it work with private repositories?

Yes, as long as your authenticated GitHub CLI user has the appropriate permissions (scopes) to access the repository and its PRs.

Can I choose which PR comments to address?

Yes, the skill fetches all comments, numbers them, and provides a summary so you can specifically select which items you want Claude to fix.

About

The GitHub PR Comment Handler is designed to accelerate the code review cycle by bridging the gap between PR feedback and local development. By leveraging the GitHub CLI, this skill automatically identifies open pull requests for the current branch, extracts review threads, and presents a numbered summary of requested changes. Developers can select specific comments to address, and Claude will generate and apply the necessary code modifications. This eliminates the manual overhead of context-switching between the browser and the terminal, ensuring that every piece of feedback is addressed efficiently.
