A watcher for GitHub pull requests, which are proposed code changes submitted for review. It tracks review status, automated checks, merge conflicts, assignments, and changes across related requests.

It is for monitoring one or more pull requests, showing their current state, retrying certain flaky checks, and waking the agent for fixes or completion.

It removes the need to repeatedly check pull requests and alerts the coding agent when a failed check or conflict needs attention.

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	$0.00166	$0.02256
Opus 5.5	$0.00066	$0.00902
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00033	$0.00451
Haiku 4.5	$0.00017	$0.00226

Measured today against content hash 018d69736d2a, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-10-07, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

monitor 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 17 executable files (scripts/a2ui_board.py, scripts/diff_events.py, scripts/gh_client.py, …), 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 — 104 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PR Monitor (`/monitor`)

monitor watches one or more GitHub pull requests across a session. Its helper script, scripts/monitor_prs.py, polls GitHub notifications (If-Modified-Since, free 304 responses every 60 seconds) alongside periodic GraphQL refreshes (every 120 seconds) and diffs each pull request against a per-conversation state file.

On every refresh, monitor_prs.py writes <scratch>/monitor/board.a2ui and appends stack_board updates directly to the a2ui-pane conversation JSONL store (~/.gemini/jetski/plugin_data/a2ui-pane/conversations/<conversationId>.jsonl), streaming live badge and CI ETA updates to the open pane at zero LLM tokens. A lightweight flash watcher subagent runs the blocking loop with --actionable-only, handles one-time flaky CI reruns and failing-log capture, and wakes the main agent only when workspace remediation or terminal completion occurs.

Read references/action_policy.md before acting on any event and references/output_schema.md for the JSON payload contract, CLI flags, event kinds, and exit codes.

1. Resolve Target Pull Requests

Pass the target pull requests explicitly on the monitor_prs.py command line. Never rely on the script to guess targets from the current git branch:

Include every pull request the user names in their prompt (owner/repo#123, a pull request URL, or #123 with --repo owner/repo).
Add every open pull request already discussed or created in the current conversation.
Pass --stack when the user asks to watch a stack or when any target pull request is part of a branch stack.

Store all monitor files inside the conversation scratch directory:

State snapshot: <conversation-scratch-dir>/monitor/state.json
Event history log: <conversation-scratch-dir>/monitor/events.jsonl
Latest output file: <conversation-scratch-dir>/monitor/last.json
A2UI Express DSL file: <conversation-scratch-dir>/monitor/board.a2ui
Captured CI failure logs: <conversation-scratch-dir>/monitor/ci_<repo>_<pr>.log

What ships with it

24 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

monitor is a skill published in the GitHub repository gspencergoog/skills (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 166 tokens to every session and 2,256 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-28.
