pr-takeover

pr-takeover is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from nexu-io/looper. It costs 134 tokens per session (2,295 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for taking responsibility for a GitHub pull request until it is merged. A pull request is a proposed code change that reviewers and automated checks inspect before it enters the project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read review comments, make requested code fixes, reply to or resolve threads, reject change requests when justified, monitor checks, and merge an approved pull request.
Why use it?
It keeps review feedback, requested fixes, discussion threads, approvals, and checks in one ongoing process. This removes the need to repeatedly check whether the pull request is ready.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 93
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.
  • medium Agent Snooping · line 163
    Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.
    Fix: Remove all code or instructions that list or read other skills' files or directories. Skills should operate independently; cross-skill access is a privilege escalation.

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

pr-takeover 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 8d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 168 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PR Takeover

Drive one pull request to merge: continuously read the live review state, fix what reviewers ask for, reply to and resolve threads, dismiss change requests you can justify as wrong, and merge once the PR is approved and all required checks pass — looping until it lands.

There are two ways to run this. Pick one in Step 0, then execute it.

Mode Who runs the agent Lifetime Needs
A · Live (default) you, in this session until your session ends gh + git only
B · Background the Looper daemon survives you leaving; runs for days Looper installed

Step 0 — Choose the mode (confirm with the user only if unclear)

  1. If the user already signalled a preference, honor it:
    • "in the background", "while I'm away", "even after I close this", "set and forget" → Mode B.
    • "watch it", "do it now", "in here" → Mode A.
  2. Otherwise default to Mode A (zero install, uses your already-authenticated session). Mention in one line that Mode B exists for unattended runs, and switch only if they ask.
  3. Choose Mode B only if command -v looper succeeds and the user wants it unattended. If they want unattended but Looper isn't installed, tell them to install it (https://github.com/nexu-io/looper) or fall back to Mode A.

Keep this lightweight — ask at most one short question, and only when the user gave no signal.

Prerequisites

gh auth status                  # authenticated, with push access to the PR branch
git rev-parse --show-toplevel   # run from inside the repo checkout

Identify the PR (explicit <owner>/<repo>#<num> wins; else the current branch's):

gh pr view --json number,headRefName,baseRefName,url

If no PR exists for the branch, stop and ask the user to open one.


Mode B — Background (Looper daemon)

Hand the PR to Looper and you're done; it runs the reviewer + fixer loops itself.

looper takeover <owner>/<repo>#<num> --merge   # --merge enables auto-merge once approved + green
looper takeover list                           # check status later
looper takeover stop <owner>/<repo>#<num>      # stop it

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.
