Sweep Reds (CI Failure Sweep)

A discipline skill for repairing confirmed CI failures base-first, then preparing affected PRs one at a time with exact-SHA evidence.

What it does

  • Base health first: resolves live main/release refs and freeze state read-only, reproduces each failure signature on a pinned base, separates setup/install failures from assertion failures, and opens one owned branch per reviewable repair with RED-to-GREEN proof.
  • PR queue triage: inventories requested open PRs and classifies required failures, advisory failures, pending, stale, cancelled and approval-needed separately, working one PR at a time with ownership checks before each mutation.
  • Exact-candidate evidence: PASS only from current applicable executions on the exact SHA; closed or missing incidents and inherited labels count as UNKNOWN.
  • Hard boundaries: never merges, closes PRs, changes freeze state, weakens assertions, widens tolerances or suppresses failures; missing access is a HOLD, not a PASS.
  • Structured report: base and PR SHAs, failure signatures and counts, causal confidence, commits, run/attempt/artifact evidence, full vs partial validation, and outstanding holds.

Who it's for

  • Maintainers of busy monorepos or OSS repos who regularly clear red CI and PR backlogs
  • Platform/release engineers restoring the merge queue before a cut
  • Teams that want to stop agents from faking green by loosening tests

Examples

  1. Ask "sweep reds" and the agent first reproduces failures on main's current SHA, reporting install failures separately from assertion failures.
  2. Once the base is green, it inventories 12 failing PRs, splits required vs advisory vs stale evidence, and prepares a minimal fix for the first one.
  3. When five iterations fail to converge, it reports the evidence and the owner decision needed, then moves to the next independent item instead of relabeling red as green.

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

Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the config/quality/skill-templates/sweep-reds folder from the GitHub repo cheaper-inference/OmniRoute into my ~/.claude/skills/sweep-reds/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/cheaper-inference/OmniRoute.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r OmniRoute/config/quality/skill-templates/sweep-reds OmniRoute/config/quality/skill-templates/_shared ~/.claude/skills/

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

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/cheaper-inference/OmniRoute.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill together with its shared docs: cp -r OmniRoute/config/quality/skill-templates/sweep-reds OmniRoute/config/quality/skill-templates/_shared ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Verify that ~/.claude/skills/sweep-reds/SKILL.md exists and that _shared/base-green.md and _shared/validation-gate.md are actually present; if not, locate them in the repo and copy them too.
  6. Restart Claude Code, then ask it to "sweep reds" or "restore the queue".
  7. Remember the skill never merges anything — you still perform the final merge of the prepared PRs yourself.
