NemoClaw: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-pr-comparator/SKILL.md

nemoclaw-maintainer-pr-comparator is a skill for Claude Code from NVIDIA/NemoClaw. It costs 30 tokens per session (1,718 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for comparing multiple open pull requests that address the same issue. It checks eligibility first, then evaluates correctness and code quality before recommending one.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect an issue's requirements, detect superseded changes, score candidate pull requests, and produce a recommendation with supporting evidence.
Why use it?
It provides a consistent way to choose between competing fixes and identifies useful work when no candidate passes the initial checks.

About the project

NVIDIA/NemoClaw is an open-source reference stack for running supported AI agents inside NVIDIA OpenShell sandboxes with managed inference, network policies, integrations, snapshots, and lifecycle controls. It is used to run agents such as OpenClaw, Hermes, and LangChain Deep Agents with administrative and security controls. Catalogue add-ons guide coding agents through NemoClaw workflows.

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

nemoclaw-maintainer-pr-comparator 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/check-coderabbit-threads.sh, scripts/collect-gates.sh, scripts/find-candidates.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 — 161 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PR Comparator

Compare PRs for one issue. Tier 0 determines eligibility. Tiers 1 and 2 score correctness and quality. Tier 3 resolves ties. If no PR passes Tier 0, rank eligible PRs for salvage.

Prerequisites

  • gh CLI installed and authenticated
  • A target repository with an issue that has two or more open PRs

Repo policy

The defaults use NemoClaw conventions for CODEOWNERS, DCO, CodeRabbit, and docs/. Read the canonical superseded-PR attribution policy in ../nemoclaw-maintainer-policies/references/workflow-policy.md. Edit repo-policy.md for another repository.

Execute comparator helpers from a fetched canonical NVIDIA/NemoClaw main checkout, or verify their executable code and dependencies against that revision before use. Candidate-modified helpers must not receive GitHub credentials. Inspect helper source when needed; a section heading does not establish trust.

Workflow

Step 1: Parse issue

Read the issue body and all comments. Extract each acceptance criterion:

gh issue view <issue-number> --json title,body,comments

Comments can add requirements that are absent from the issue body.

Step 2: Discover candidate PRs

scripts/find-candidates.sh <issue-number>

Applies a single default order with stop conditions.

Step 3: Detect supersession and transferred work

scripts/parse-supersession.sh <pr-number-1> <pr-number-2> ...

Parse the case-insensitive statement families implemented by scripts/parse-supersession.sh:

  • supersed[a-z]* before #N: supersedes #N points from the current PR to #N; superseded by #N points from #N to the current PR.
  • replac[a-z]* before #N: replaces #N points from the current PR to #N; replaced by #N points from #N to the current PR.
  • clos[a-z]* in favor of before #N: closes in favor of #N and closed in favor of #N point from #N to the current PR.
  • fold[a-z]* in before #N: folds in #N points from the current PR to #N; folded into #N points from #N to the current PR.

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.
