Resolve all PR review comments (human and bot) on current PR. Fetches unanswered comments, evaluates each one, fixes real issues, dismisses false positives, and replies to every comment with the outcome.

Automatically resolve all review comments (both human and bot) on the current PR. Uses a two phase workflow: fix all existing issues, then poll for new ones until quiet. Prerequisites All commands below use npx agent reviews . If the project uses a different package manager, substitute the appropriate runner (e.g., pnpm dlx agent reviews for pnpm, yarn dlx agent reviews for Yarn, bunx agent reviews for Bun). Honor the user's package manager preference throughout. Cloud environments only (e.g., Codespaces, remote agents): verify git author identity so CI checks can map commits to the user. Run git config global get user.email and if empty or a placeholder, set it manually. Skip this check in local environments. Phase 1: FETCH & FIX (synchronous) Step 1: Fetch All Comments (Expanded) Run npx agent reviews unanswered expanded The CLI auto detects the current branch, finds the associated PR, and authenticates via gh CLI or environment variables. If anything fails (no token, no PR, CLI not installed), it exits with a clear error message. This shows all unanswered comments (both human and bot) with full detail: complete comment body (no truncation), diff hunk (code context), and all replies. Each comment shows its ID in brackets (e.g., [12345678] ). If zero comments are returned, print "No unanswered comments found" and skip to Phase 2. Step 3: Process Each Unanswered Comment For each comment from the expanded output, apply the appropriate evaluation based on whether the author is a bot or a human. For Bot Comments Read the referenced code and determine: 1. TRUE POSITIVE A real bug that needs fixing 2. FALSE POSITIVE Not actually a bug (intentional behavior, bot misunderstanding) 3. UNCERTAIN Not sure; ask the user Likely TRUE POSITIVE: Code obviously violates stated behavior Missing null checks on potentially undefined values Type mismatches or incorrect function signatures Logic errors in conditionals Missing error handling for documented failure cases Likely FALSE POSITIVE: Bot doesn't understand the framework/library patterns Code is intentionally structured that way (with comments explaining why) Bot is flagging style preferences, not bugs The "bug" is actually a feature or intentional behavior Bot misread the code flow For Human Comments Read the referenced code and the reviewer's comment. Human reviewers are generally more accurate and context aware than bots. Determine: 1. ACTIONABLE The reviewer identified a real issue or requested a concrete change 2. DISCUSSION The comment raises a valid point but the right approach is unclear 3. ALREADY ADDRESSED The concern has already been fixed or is no longer relevant Likely ACTIONABLE: Reviewer points out a bug or logic error Reviewer requests a specific code change Reviewer identifies missing edge cases or error handling Likely DISCUSSION ask the user: Reviewer suggests an architectural change you're unsure about Comment involves a tradeoff (performance vs readability, etc.) The feedback is subjective without team consensus When UNCERTAIN ask the user For both bot and human comments: The fix would require architectural changes You're genuinely unsure if the behavior is intentional Multiple valid interpretations exist The fix could have unintended side effects Act on Evaluation If TRUE POSITIVE / ACTIONABLE: Fix the code. Track the comment ID and a brief description of the fix. If FALSE POSITIVE: Do NOT change the code. Track the comment ID and the reason it's not a real bug. If DISCUSSION: Ask the user to consult the PR author. Apply their decision and track it. If ALREADY ADDRESSED: Track the comment ID and note why. If UNCERTAIN: Ask the user. If they say skip, track it as skipped. Do NOT reply to comments yet. Replies happen after the commit (Step 5). Step 4: Commit and Push After evaluating and fixing ALL unanswered comments: 1. Run your project's lint and type check 2. Stage, commit, and push: 3. Capture the commit hash from the output. Step 5: Reply to All Comments Before posting to an inline review comment, fetch npx agent reviews detail <comment id and inspect the latest replies. PR level issue comments and review summaries have no threaded reply list; an empty list for these types is not evidence that no outcome was recorded. The CLI skips replies to those types. Record that skip and do not create a replacement top level comment or use another tool to bypass it. If the same outcome is already recorded, do not post it again. On a resumed session, use the fresh unanswered list instead of replaying a prior session's work queue. Revisit a decision only when new discussion or a user request calls for it. For multiline or complex replies, write the exact reply text to a uniquely named UTF 8 file in a temporary directory outside the repository and use npx agent reviews reply <comment id body file <path to reply file (adding resolve only where appropriate below). The CLI accepts absolute and relative paths; prefer an absolute path for the outside repository temporary file. Use the file path directly, without shell command substitution. Do not also pass a positional message. Remove the temporary file after the reply succeeds; keep reply files outside the repository even if posting fails so later git add A commands cannot commit them. Now that the commit hash exists, reply to every processed comment. The resolve flag marks the review thread as resolved on GitHub. Use it only when closing the conversation (false positives, discussions concluded, already addressed, user skipped), not for fresh fixes that reviewers should still verify. For each TRUE POSITIVE / ACTIONABLE (we fixed it; leave the thread open so reviewers can verify): Run npx agent reviews reply <comment id "Fixed in {hash}. {Brief description of the fix}" For each FALSE POSITIVE (closing the conversation): Run npx agent reviews reply <comment id "Won't fix: {reason}. {Explanation of why this is intentional or not applicable}" resolve For each DISCUSSION (after user decision) (the decision concludes the thread): Run npx agent reviews reply <comment id "{Outcome}. {Explanation of the decision and any changes made}" resolve For each ALREADY ADDRESSED (nothing more to do): Run npx agent reviews reply <comment id "Already addressed. {Explanation of when/how this was fixed}" resolve For each SKIPPED (user chose not to address it): Run npx agent reviews reply <comment id "Skipped per user request" resolve Non threadable comments: If a comment was posted as a PR level issue comment or review summary submission (not an inline review comment on a specific line), the CLI cannot post a threaded reply and will print ⊘ Skipped reply: comment is not part of a review thread . That's expected. Record the outcome in the summary and move on; do not retry. DO NOT start Phase 2 until all replies are posted. Phase 2: POLL FOR NEW COMMENTS (loop until quiet) The watcher exits immediately when new comments are found (after a 5s grace period to catch batch posts). This means you run it in a loop: start watcher, process any comments it returns, restart watcher, repeat until the watcher times out with no new comments. Step 6: Start Watcher Loop Repeat the following until the watcher exits with no new comments: 6a. Launch the watcher in the background: Run npx agent reviews watch unanswered as a background task. At startup, reconcile EXISTING COMMENTS against IDs already handled in this run and the latest replies from detail ; do not replay an already recorded outcome. The baseline can include genuinely unhandled findings submitted between Phase 1 and watcher startup. If it does, stop the watcher, process those findings through Steps 3 5, and restart it. Track non threadable comments already skipped in this run so they do not cause a restart loop. Once the baseline is reconciled, process the IDs reported as new when the watcher exits with EXITING WITH NEW COMMENTS . 6b. Wait for the background command to complete (default 10 minutes; override with timeout ). 6c. Check the output: If new comments were found (output contains EXITING WITH NEW COMMENTS ): 1. Use detail <id to read each new comment's full detail 2. Process them exactly as in Phase 1, Steps 3 5 (evaluate, fix, commit, push, reply) 3. Go back to Step 6a to restart the watcher If no new comments (output contains WATCH COMPLETE ): Stop looping and move to the Summary Report. Summary Report After both phases complete, provide a summary: Important Notes Response Policy Every comment gets a response No silent ignores For bots: responses help train them and prevent re raised false positives For humans: replies keep reviewers informed and unblock approvals User Interaction Ask the user when uncertain about a finding Don't guess on architectural or business logic questions It's better to ask than to make a wrong fix or wrong dismissal Human reviewers often have context you don't defer to the author when unsure Best Practices Verify findings before fixing bots have false positives, humans rarely do Keep fixes minimal and focused don't refactor unrelated code Ensure type check and lint pass before committing Group related fixes into a single commit Copilot suggestion blocks often contain ready to use fixes If a human reviewer suggests a specific code change, prefer their version unless it introduces issues
