What are the prerequisites for using this skill?

You need the GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated on your machine, along with Claude Code configured to use this skill.

How does the PR Review skill interact with GitHub?

The skill utilizes the GitHub CLI (gh) installed on your system to fetch pull request data, checkout code locally, and interact with the GitHub API to post comments and reviews.

Can I edit the suggested comments before they are posted?

Absolutely. The skill follows a 'plan-first' approach, presenting all findings and suggested comments for your approval or modification before executing any commands.

Does this skill help with security and dependency management?

Yes, it includes a specific 'Dependency Check' phase that flags archived, deprecated, or unmaintained libraries and looks for existing alternatives in your codebase.
