PR Buddy FAQs

Question 1

Can PR Buddy handle fork-based pull requests?

Accepted Answer

While optimized for local branches, it can manage forks if write access is granted. If access is restricted, the skill can suggest fix branches or propose manual changes.

Question 2

What dependencies does PR Buddy require?

Accepted Answer

It requires the GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated, along with the agynio/gh-pr-review extension specifically for handling review comments.

Question 3

Is there a way to preview changes before they are committed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use 'Dry-Run Mode' by telling the agent to show fixes without committing, allowing you to review all proposed changes before they are applied to your branch.

Question 4

How does the 'fix and prevent' philosophy work?

Accepted Answer

When PR Buddy identifies an issue, it doesn't just apply a quick patch; it attempts to implement tests or configurations that prevent that specific type of error from recurring in the future.

Question 5

How does it differentiate between critical feedback and nitpicks?

Accepted Answer

PR Buddy triages comments by importance; critical blockers are addressed directly in the code, while minor suggestions or nitpicks can be converted into separate GitHub issues for later resolution.
