Babysit
This one camps out on a pull request and doesn't leave until it's actually merge-ready. It polls CI checks every 30-60 seconds, reads new review comments and threads, fixes the issues it finds, pushes commits, then loops back to check again. The implementation is thorough: it uses GitHub CLI for status checks and GraphQL queries with pagination to handle PRs with dozens of review threads. It only stops when checks pass, reviews are approved, and every actionable comment is addressed. Useful when you're stuck in a review cycle with a picky CI setup or multiple reviewers trickling in feedback, and you just want something to handle the busywork while you move on to other tasks.

Babysit PR
Stay with the PR until it is actually clean. Do not stop after one check pass if comments or review threads are still unresolved.
Workflow
- Identify the PR number, branch, and base branch.
- Confirm the PR is not draft and inspect mergeability, checks, review decision, comments, and review threads.
- Watch pending checks until they finish. Poll at a practical interval, usually 30-60 seconds unless the user asks for a different cadence.
- Read new comments and unresolved review threads. Treat bot summaries as useful, but verify actionable findings against the code.
- Fix real issues in focused commits, run relevant tests/builds, push, and return to step 2.
- Resolve stale review threads only after verifying the code or generated artifact now addresses the comment.
- Stop only when checks are passing or intentionally skipped, review decision is acceptable, no actionable comments remain, and no unresolved review threads remain.
GitHub CLI Checks
Use gh pr view for the coarse status:
gh pr view <number> --json \
number,state,isDraft,mergeable,mergeStateStatus,reviewDecision,headRefOid,statusCheckRollup,url
