Skills PR Handler (Scenario)

Give it a PR number and it checks out the branch, rebases onto main, triages every open review thread, and validates changed skills.

What it does

Checks out the PR with gh pr checkout and prints its state (draft, mergeable, review decision).
Rebases onto the base branch, resolves conflicts preserving both intents, and pushes with --force-with-lease on the PR head only — never force-pushing main, never merging or un-drafting.
Audits the skill diff for discovery misuse (search doing recommend's job, hardcoded generative model ids) using the repo's AGENTS.md authoring contract, judging only lines the PR touches.
Loads only unresolved, non-outdated review threads via GraphQL, then triages each as fix / dismiss / ask, replies inside the thread, and resolves it when appropriate.
Runs $skills-validate only when a skill is new or substantively changed, then ends with a compact status report (PR URL, rebase result, per-thread outcome, validation verdicts).

Who it's for

Maintainers and contributors of the Scenario Labs skills repository.
Teams that want a reference template for a disciplined "rebase + review-comment triage + validate" PR loop.
Developers studying PR automation patterns with the gh CLI and GitHub's GraphQL API.

Examples

skills-pr-handle 412 — checkout PR 412, rebase onto main, fix two comments with a conventional commit, dismiss one noisy comment with a reason.
skills-pr-handle 512 --plan-only — a PR adding a new skill, validated in planning mode so no generation credits are spent.
A PR that only edits a README table row — rebase and comment triage still run, and the report states "no skill validation needed" with the reason.

Try it now, no install

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.

Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scenario-labs/skills/HEAD/.agents/skills/skills-pr-handle/SKILL.md

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)

Download the ZIP with the button below.
In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.

↓ Download ZIP

Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the .agents/skills/skills-pr-handle folder from the GitHub repo scenario-labs/skills into my ~/.claude/skills/skills-pr-handle/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/scenario-labs/skills.git /tmp/scenario-skills && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/scenario-skills/.agents/skills/skills-pr-handle ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

Install the GitHub CLI (gh) and authenticate with gh auth login using an account that can comment on and resolve review threads.
Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/scenario-labs/skills.git
Copy the skill into Claude Code: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r skills/.agents/skills/skills-pr-handle ~/.claude/skills/
This skill depends on the sibling skills-validate skill and the repo's AGENTS.md conventions — copy skills-validate the same way if you want the full flow.
Restart Claude Code, open the repository as your working directory, and invoke it explicitly: skills-pr-handle <PR number> (model auto-invocation is disabled by design).
Start from a clean worktree; uncommitted changes will make the checkout step stop and report a blocker.
