revert-pr

revert-pr is a command for coding agents from openshift-eng/ai-helpers. It costs 13 tokens per session (1,536 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command for undoing a merged GitHub pull request that is breaking continuous integration or nightly builds. It creates a revert branch and pull request, then prepares CI override commands where needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with a merged pull-request URL and JIRA ticket to create the revert pull request in the required format.
Why use it?
It provides a quick, traceable way to restore failing CI or blocked nightly builds while the original change is investigated and fixed.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

revert-pr scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

ci:revert-pr

Synopsis

/ci:revert-pr <pr-url> <jira-ticket>

Description

The ci:revert-pr command reverts a merged pull request that is breaking CI or nightly payloads. It follows the OpenShift quick-revert policy to restore CI signal.

This command:

  • Extracts the original PR details (title, author, merge commit SHA, base branch)
  • Ensures the user has a fork of the repository
  • Creates a revert branch and performs git revert -m1 of the merge commit
  • Pushes the revert branch to the user's fork
  • Creates a revert PR using the Revertomatic template format
  • Generates a list of CI override commands (/override) for jobs that may need to be bypassed on the revert PR

This command is useful when:

  • A merged PR is causing CI job failures
  • Nightly payloads are blocked by a breaking change
  • Quick reversion is needed to restore CI signal while the original author fixes the issue

Implementation

  1. Parse Arguments: Extract the PR URL, JIRA ticket, and flags

    • PR URL format: https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/pull/{number}
    • JIRA ticket: e.g., TRT-1234 or OCPBUGS-56789
    • If the user provides additional context about why the revert is needed, capture it for the PR body
    • If the user provides verification details (jobs to run before unrevert), capture those too
  2. Gather Context: Use the JIRA ticket to automatically determine what broke and what needs verification

    • Look up the JIRA ticket using the fetch-jira-issue skill (plugins/ci/skills/fetch-jira-issue/fetch_jira_issue.py) with --format json
    • Extract context from the JIRA issue: Use the issue summary, description, and comments to determine:
      • What broke: Which CI jobs or payloads are failing (e.g., "e2e-aws jobs failing on 4.18 nightly payload")
      • Verification jobs: Which jobs should pass before the original change can be re-landed (e.g., "e2e-aws, e2e-gcp")
    • Compose the context for the revert PR body from the JIRA issue details. Include links to failing jobs or payloads if mentioned in the ticket.
    • Fall back to asking the user only if:
      • The JIRA lookup fails (token not set, network error, ticket not found)
      • The JIRA issue doesn't contain enough information to determine what broke or which jobs to verify
    • If the user provided additional context as inline arguments, combine it with the JIRA-derived context

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
