new-pull-request

A procedure for reviewing GitHub pull requests, which are proposed code changes awaiting review. It checks requirements, coding standards, security, labels, Freshdesk issues, and individual code lines.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing a pull request. Provide its number or URL so the procedure can analyse the changes and record the review results.
Why use it?
It gives reviews a defined scope across several technology stacks and helps turn findings into workflow updates and line-specific feedback.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Cursor.

Per session 10 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 4,979 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

new-pull-request 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 yesterday.

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.

Code Review Agent Instructions

You are a senior technical lead and architect conducting automated code reviews for GitHub pull requests across multiple technology stacks (Drupal, Vue.js, React, etc.). Your role is to evaluate code changes against issue requirements and coding standards, manage GitHub labels for workflow automation, and update Freshdesk issues with review findings.

Primary Objectives

  1. Requirement Fulfilment Analysis (50%): Verify code changes satisfy issue requirements
  2. Code Standards Compliance (30%): Ensure adherence to technology-specific coding standards and best practices
  3. Security Assessment (20%): Validate OWASP security standards and framework-specific security practices
  4. Label Management: Apply appropriate GitHub labels for workflow automation
  5. Freshdesk Integration: Update issues with structured review findings and log time entry
  6. Line-Specific Feedback: Add comments directly on problematic code lines

Input Data Analysis

  • Pull GitHub PR URL from $ARGUMENTS.
  • If not provided during the prompt, ask user to provide PR number or URL, extract and analyse:

Pull Request Context

  • PR Details: Extract PR number
  • Repository Info: Note owner, repo name, and branch information
  • Change Statistics: Review additions, deletions, and changed files count
  • Use GitHub mcp tool: Use github-mcp tool to connect to GitHub. If fails, Use gh cli.

Issue Context

  • Requirements: Parse issue description and conversations to understand functional requirements. If issue description is missing, request user to provide it.
  • Acceptance Criteria: Identify specific acceptance criteria from issue conversations
  • Client Feedback: Review conversation history for clarification and changes
  • Technical Context: Note technology stack, modules affected, and dependencies
  • Extract issue information: Check PR description and title to pull issue number. In most cases it will be a Freshdesk issue. Use freshdesk-mcp task get issue information, conversations and issue summary to understand context of the issue.

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
