agent-reviews

Manage GitHub PR review comments from the terminal and from AI coding agents.

PR review bots (Copilot, Cursor Bugbot, CodeRabbit, etc.) leave inline comments on your pull requests. agent-reviews gives you a CLI to list, filter, reply to, and watch those comments, plus agent skills that automate the entire triage-fix-reply loop.

Why

gh CLI is fragile for review comments. Agents frequently get the syntax wrong, fail to paginate, and can't reliably detect whether a comment has been replied to. agent-reviews provides a single, purpose-built interface that handles all of this correctly.

Bot reviews create a doom loop. You fix one round of findings, push, and new comments appear. Fix those, push again, more comments. This cycle can eat hours. The included skills solve this with an integrated watcher that keeps fixing and replying until the bots go quiet.

Works in cloud environments. Most solutions rely on local tooling that isn't available in cloud or remote agent environments. agent-reviews works everywhere, so you can kick off a session, let the agent resolve all findings autonomously, and come back to a clean PR.

Install

CLI (npm)

npm install -g agent-reviews

Agent Skills

Three skills are available, each as a slash command (no npm install required):

Skill What it resolves
resolve-reviews All comments (human + bot)
resolve-agent-reviews Bot comments only (Copilot, Cursor, etc.)
resolve-human-reviews Human comments only

Works with any agent that supports Agent Skills (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, etc.):

npx skills add pbakaus/agent-reviews@resolve-agent-reviews

Replace resolve-agent-reviews with whichever skill you want. Skills use npx agent-reviews at runtime, so the CLI is fetched automatically.

You can also use both: install the CLI globally for direct terminal use, and a skill for the agent workflow.

Authentication

The simplest method is the GitHub CLI. If you're logged in with gh auth login, agent-reviews picks up the token automatically. No configuration needed.

For cloud/remote environments or HTTPS proxy setups, set GITHUB_TOKEN or GH_TOKEN directly. agent-reviews includes undici ProxyAgent support and will route requests through HTTPS_PROXY automatically when set.

Resolution order (first match wins):

  1. GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable
  2. GH_TOKEN environment variable
  3. .env.local in the repo root
  4. gh auth token (GitHub CLI)

Custom API host

Set GITHUB_API_URL to point agent-reviews at a GitHub Enterprise host or any API-compatible server (useful for testing, recording, or routing through a local mediator). Defaults to https://api.github.com.

# GitHub Enterprise Server
GITHUB_API_URL=https://github.example.com/api/v3 agent-reviews

# Local API-compatible server
GITHUB_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8080 agent-reviews

GraphQL endpoint resolution: agent-reviews uses ${GITHUB_API_URL}/graphql by default. For GitHub Enterprise Server, where REST lives under /api/v3 and GraphQL under /api/graphql on the same origin, the trailing /api/v3 is rewritten to /api/graphql automatically. Set GITHUB_GRAPHQL_URL directly if you need full control over the GraphQL endpoint.

CLI Usage

# List all review comments on the current branch's PR
agent-reviews

# Only unresolved comments
agent-reviews --unresolved

# Only unanswered bot comments
agent-reviews --unanswered --bots-only

# Full detail for a specific comment (diff hunk + replies)
agent-reviews --detail 12345678

# Reply to a comment
agent-reviews --reply 12345678 "Fixed in abc1234"

# JSON output for scripting / AI agents
agent-reviews --json

# Watch for new comments (polls every 30s, exits after 10 min idle)
agent-reviews --watch --bots-only

# Target a specific PR (otherwise auto-detects from branch)
agent-reviews --pr 42

Options

Flag Short Description
--unresolved -u Only unresolved/pending comments
--unanswered -a Only comments without any replies
--reply <id> "msg" -r Reply to a comment
--resolve Resolve the review thread after replying (use with --reply)
--detail <id> -d Full detail for a comment
--pr <number> -p Target a specific PR
--json -j JSON output
--bots-only -b Only bot comments
--humans-only -H Only human comments
--expanded -e Show full detail for each listed comment
--watch -w Poll for new comments
--interval <sec> -i Poll interval in seconds (default: 30)
--timeout <sec> Inactivity timeout in seconds (default: 600)

Agent Skills

The skills automate the full PR review resolution workflow:

  1. Fetch unanswered comments (all, bot-only, or human-only depending on skill)
  2. Evaluate each finding (true positive, false positive, actionable, etc.)
  3. Fix real issues and run lint/type-check
  4. Dismiss false positives with an explanation
  5. Reply to every comment with the outcome
  6. Watch for new comments and repeat until quiet
  7. Report a summary of all actions taken

Skill behavior

  • True positives / actionable feedback get fixed and replied with Fixed in {commit}
  • False positives get replied with Won't fix: {reason}
  • Uncertain findings prompt the user for guidance
  • All fixes are batched into a single commit before polling begins
  • Watch mode loops until no new comments appear for 10 minutes

How It Works

Comment types

agent-reviews fetches three types of GitHub PR comments:

Type Label Description
Review comment CODE Inline comment attached to a specific line
Issue comment COMMENT General PR-level comment
Review REVIEW Review summary (approved, changes requested)

Meta-comment filtering

Bot review bodies (REVIEW type) are always filtered out since actionable findings come through as inline comments. Additionally, these bot issue comments are filtered:

Bot What's filtered
Vercel Deployment status ([vc]:...)
Supabase Branch status ([supa]:...)
Cursor Bugbot Review summary ("Cursor Bugbot has reviewed your changes...")
Copilot PR review summary ("Pull request overview")
CodeRabbit Walkthrough, summary, and "review skipped" comments
Sourcery Reviewer's guide and PR summary
Codacy Analysis summary and coverage summary
SonarCloud Quality Gate pass/fail summary
Gemini Code Assist "Summary of Changes" issue comment

Reply status

Each comment displays its reply status:

Status Meaning
no reply No one has replied
replied A human has replied
bot replied Only bots have replied

Watch mode

Polls the GitHub API at a configurable interval and reports new comments as they appear. Outputs both formatted text and JSON for AI agent consumption. Exits automatically after a configurable inactivity timeout (default: 10 minutes).

Changelog

1.0.2

  • GitHub Enterprise Server support via GITHUB_API_URL env var (also works for local API-compatible servers used in testing). REST and GraphQL endpoints both honor it, with GHES /api/v3 automatically rewritten to /api/graphql. Optional GITHUB_GRAPHQL_URL for unusual setups.
  • Gemini Code Assist meta-comment filtering: the bot's ## Summary of Changes issue comment is now dropped, while inline severity-badged findings are preserved.

1.0.0

Three skills instead of one. The single agent-reviews skill has been split into three, each tailored for different workflows:

  • resolve-reviews resolves all comments (human + bot)
  • resolve-agent-reviews resolves bot comments only
  • resolve-human-reviews resolves human comments only

Thread resolution. The new --resolve flag marks GitHub review threads as resolved after replying. Uses the GraphQL resolveReviewThread mutation. Works with --reply in any argument order.

Expanded bot support. Added detection and meta-comment filtering for CodeRabbit, Sourcery, Codacy, SonarCloud/SonarQube Cloud, and Copilot PR reviewer, in addition to the existing Cursor Bugbot, Vercel, and Supabase filters.

Agent-harness universal. Skills now work with any agent that supports Agent Skills (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, etc.), not just Claude Code.

Watch mode improvements. The watcher now exits immediately when new comments are found (with a 5s grace period for batch posts), designed for loop-based workflows where the agent processes comments and restarts the watcher.

New CLI options:

  • --resolve resolves the review thread after replying (use with --reply)
  • --expanded / -e shows full detail (body, diff hunk, replies) for each comment in list mode

Bug fixes:

  • --json --resolve no longer emits plain-text status messages to stdout

Cloud and proxy support:

  • GH_TOKEN environment variable support (in addition to GITHUB_TOKEN)
  • GH_REPO environment variable for targeting repos in detached environments
  • Curl-based HTTP fallback for environments without native fetch/undici
  • Curl requests include timeouts (10s connect, 60s max)

Smarter filtering. Bot review bodies (summaries listing inline findings) are now automatically excluded, since actionable findings always come through as inline comments. Reply comments posted by agent-reviews itself (> Re: comment ...) are also filtered to avoid noise.

Simplified architecture. Skills now invoke npx agent-reviews at runtime instead of bundling their own scripts, reducing the package from ~4000 lines of duplicated code to a single CLI entry point. Skills no longer run redundant startup commands (version check, branch detection, PR lookup), relying on the CLI's own error handling instead.
