babysit-pr

babysit-pr is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from amElnagdy/review-skills. It costs 37 tokens per session (4,406 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for taking a GitHub pull request or GitLab merge request from opening to having its review comments answered and resolved. A pull request is a proposed code change awaiting review; a merge request is the GitLab equivalent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to handle automated review comments across new pushes, verify reported issues against the code, fix blocking problems, and close the resulting discussion threads.
Why use it?
It removes the need to repeatedly refresh the code-hosting site and manually track review rounds. It checks whether bot findings are true, applies fixes where needed, and replies to each comment.

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

babysit-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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/threads.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 323 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Babysit a PR

Goal: carry a pull request (GitHub) or merge request (GitLab) from "just opened" to "nothing left unanswered," without the human having to sit and refresh the page. "PR" below means either.

Review bots are diff-anchored samplers. Every push mints a fresh round, and a fix in one place can light up commentary somewhere adjacent. Left alone, a PR accumulates half-answered threads that nobody resolves, and the real bug in round three gets buried under nitpicks from rounds one and two. Your job is to be the person who reads every finding, decides what is actually true, fixes what blocks, and closes every loop in writing.

You know how to drive gh (GitHub), glab (GitLab), and git. What follows is only the judgment this loop needs and the few API calls that are easy to get wrong. The harvest script picks the forge from the cwd's git origin; everything it returns has the same shape on both, with a capabilities block naming what that forge cannot tell you.

The three rules that matter most

Verify before you believe. A bot's severity badge is a guess made without running anything. Treat every finding, including the P1s, as a claim to check against the code. Bots are frequently right (that is why this loop is worth running), and they are also confidently wrong often enough that shipping their suggestions unexamined will introduce bugs. Read the actual code path before you agree or disagree.

Every thread gets an answer. A finding you fixed, rejected, or deferred is only closed once you have said so in that thread and resolved it. Silence reads as "ignored" to the next human who opens the PR, and it is how a real bug gets lost.

Publish before you answer. A "fixed" reply is only true once the remote branch carries the fix. Never post a confirmed reply, or resolve its thread, while the fix exists only locally. Rejections need no push. Reply with evidence and resolve immediately.

Harvest the round

Findings arrive on two different surfaces, and a round that reads only one silently misses half of them. This is the single most common way a babysit loop goes wrong:

Changes

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.
