It works on the open pull request for your current branch, using the GitHub CLI. The agent checks that gh is logged in first and asks you to run gh auth login if it is not. A bundled script, fetch_comments.py, prints every comment and review thread on the pull request. The agent numbers them and writes a one-line summary of what each fix would take, then asks which numbers you want handled. Nothing is changed until you choose. After you pick, the agent applies fixes for the selected comments only. If gh hits an authentication or rate limit problem partway through, the skill tells the agent to ask you to log in again and retry, rather than guess. ## When to use it - Your pull request has a long review and you want every comment listed in one place. - You want to choose which review comments the agent fixes and skip the rest. - You want a quick summary of what each requested change would involve. ## When to pick something else - Writing a code review of someone else's pull request: the skill only answers comments already on yours. ## What it needs - GitHub CLI (gh) logged in with repo and workflow scopes - Python, for the bundled comment script ## Which agents it works in OpenAI documents it for Codex, Any agent that reads SKILL.md files, through the skills CLI. The open skills CLI also installs it into 78 agents (listed with the CLI on 2026-10-01). The instructions mention Codex's sandbox escalation (sandbox_permissions=require_escalated) for gh commands; other agents simply need network access for gh.
