Structured PR Review
Two modes: giving reviews and addressing review comments. The default/fallback path uses gh CLI only — no extra dependencies. An optional Lobster pipeline parallelises data gathering when Lobster (Node/npx) is available; see references/lobster-integration.md.
Data gathering (optional Lobster pipeline)
run-pr-review.sh gathers PR metadata, diff, CI status, and existing review
comments in one step and emits a pr-context-v0 JSON blob. Use this context
for analysis instead of making multiple sequential gh calls.
# Auto-detect Lobster; falls back transparently to direct pipe-through
scripts/run-pr-review.sh https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/123
# Force direct path (no Lobster required)
scripts/run-pr-review.sh 42 --repo owner/repo --no-lobster
See references/lobster-integration.md for the full workflow, Lobster args, explicit commands, and install instructions.
Giving Reviews
When asked to review or check a PR:
- Fetch the PR details and full diff (use
run-pr-review.shorghdirectly) - Walk through each review layer in order (see references/review-layers.md):
- Security — secrets, injection, auth, exposure
- Correctness — logic errors, edge cases, error handling
- Conventions — team standards (customize via references/conventions.md)
- IaC — Terraform/CloudFormation checks (customize via references/iac-checklist.md)
- Testing — coverage, new code has tests
- Produce a structured verdict with severity tiers
Key principles:
- Be direct — "this approach has problems" beats "interesting choice"
- Every issue includes what to fix, not just what's wrong
- Acknowledge what the PR does well
- When in doubt on severity, go one level lower
See references/review-layers.md for the full framework and verdict format.
Addressing Review Comments
When asked to address, fix, or respond to PR feedback:
- Fetch all review comments (inline + review-level)
- Fix each issue or document why not
- Reply to every comment — none left unacknowledged
- Resolve threads, update PR description, push
See references/addressing-workflow.md for the step-by-step workflow.
Key rules:
- Never leave comments unacknowledged — reply to every one
- Always update the PR description after making changes
- Verify the PR is actually merged before closing linked issues
Customization
This skill ships with generic review layers. Customize for your team:
- references/conventions.md — coding conventions, commit format, naming rules. Ships with common defaults — customize for your team.
- references/iac-checklist.md — add your IaC-specific checks (required tags, allowed regions, provider pins). Ships with common Terraform patterns — extend for your org.

Works Well With
- terraform-engineer — Terraform authoring best practices, module patterns, testing strategies
- github (built-in) — general
ghCLI operations for PRs, issues, and CI runs - Follow your team's commit message conventions when addressing reviews (conventional commits style works well)
- gh-issues (built-in) — automated PR monitoring and review spawning
