GitHub PR Workflow

Key Concepts

Comment Types

GitHub PRs have two different types of comments:

  1. PR-level comments - General discussion on the PR (shown via gh pr view --comments)
  2. Inline code review comments - Comments attached to specific lines of code (requires API)

Important: gh pr view --comments does NOT show inline code review comments!

Scripts

ScriptPurpose
gh-pr-info <PR> [REPO]Comprehensive PR info: summary, CI checks and unresolved review and inline comments

The script auto-detects the repo from git remote, or accepts [REPO] as second argument (format: owner/repo).

Key features:

  • Uses GitHub's GraphQL API to reliably filter out already resolved/addressed comments
  • Excludes collapsed/hidden review threads
  • Excludes minimized comments (marked as spam/off-topic/resolved)
  • Excludes dismissed reviews
  • Shows only what still needs attention

Common Commands

# Get complete PR info with UNRESOLVED comments only
gh-pr-info <PR> [REPO]             # ✅ Everything you need: summary, checks, reviews, unresolved comments

# Basic PR info (native gh commands)
gh pr view <PR>                    # Overview
gh pr view <PR> --comments         # PR-level comments only (NOT inline!)
gh pr diff <PR>                    # View the diff

# Reviews (approve/request changes)
gh pr review <PR> --approve
gh pr review <PR> --request-changes --body "Please fix X"
gh pr review <PR> --comment --body "Looks good overall"

# Checks
gh pr checks <PR>                  # CI status
gh run view <RUN_ID> --log-failed  # Failed job logs

API Endpoints Reference

When gh commands don't expose what you need, use the API:

# Inline review comments
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/PR/comments

# PR-level comments (issue comments)
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/issues/PR/comments

# Review submissions
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/PR/reviews

# Commits in PR
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/PR/commits

# Files changed
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/PR/files

Workflow: Addressing Review Comments

  1. Get unresolved comments: gh-pr-info <PR>
  2. Make fixes in your local branch
