What is pr-review-watcher?

A deprecated monitoring skill that checks whether a GitHub pull request has received reviews and summarizes the verdict and requested changes. A pull request is a proposed code change waiting for review.

Use it to check review status once or monitor a pull request until new feedback arrives.

It reduces the need to repeatedly check a pull request and gathers approvals, change requests, comments, and action items in one summary.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00053	$0.01309
Opus 5.5	$0.00021	$0.00524
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00011	$0.00262
Haiku 4.5	$0.00005	$0.00131

Security

Grade A, and why

pr-review-watcher 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

DEPRECATED (2026-05-18): Directly replaceable by gh pr view --json reviews call with no real-world usage evidence. For PR review-related functionality, use harness-pr-reviewer skill instead.

pr-review-watcher — PR Review Arrival Monitor + Instant Summary

Monitors in the background while waiting for a PR reviewer, maintaining the Claude Code session. Delivers review summary + approval status + action items all at once when a review arrives.

Triggers

/pr-review-watcher <PR number>                      # Monitor PR in current repo (default 2-min interval)
/pr-review-watcher <PR number> --repo owner/repo    # Specify a particular repo
/pr-review-watcher <PR number> --interval <seconds> # Change polling interval (default 120 seconds)
/pr-review-watcher <PR number> --once               # Check current review status only (no monitoring)

Installable independently — works correctly with plugin install only, without full harness clone.

Step 1. Check Current Review Status

gh pr view <PR number> --json title,state,reviewRequests,reviews \
  --jq '{title: .title, state: .state, requested: [.reviewRequests[].login], reviews: [.reviews[] | {author: .author.login, state: .state, body: .body}]}'

Output interpretation:

reviewRequests: people with review requested (no response yet)
reviews[].state: APPROVED / CHANGES_REQUESTED / COMMENTED / DISMISSED

With --once flag: Report Step 1 results only and exit.

Step 2. Start Background Monitoring

If no reviews yet, run polling loop in background:

until gh pr view <PR number> --repo <repo> --json reviews \
  --jq '.reviews | length > 0' 2>/dev/null | grep -q "true"; do
  sleep <interval>
done

Report to user:

⏳ Monitoring PR #<N> for reviews (every <interval> seconds)
   Reviewers: <requested list>
   Will notify automatically when a review arrives.

Step 3. Instant Summary on Review Arrival

Report immediately in the following format when a review is detected:

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.
