review-pr-local

The authority on pulling a pull request — Azure DevOps or GitHub — into an isolated local worktree so a human can review it in their editor, and on posting human-controlled review comments back to the PR (ADO via the ado PR-thread MCP tools or the Azure DevOps REST API, GitHub via the gh CLI). Auto-detects the platform and all identifiers from the PR URL; not tied to any specific repository. The AI assists an interactive human review and only ever posts comments the human explicitly requests. If you find yourself checking out a PR branch over the user's own working tree, or posting AI-authored review prose the human did not ask for, invoke this skill instead.

Quality

Content

88%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A highly actionable, well-sequenced skill body with concrete commands, validation checkpoints, and error-recovery feedback loops. The main area for improvement is conciseness and the option to split detailed API reference material into a one-level-deep reference file.

Suggestions

Tighten the Philosophy section and a few justificatory asides to reduce token cost without losing the human-owned-review guidance.

Consider moving the ADO REST thread-body template and MCP field reference into a references/ file (e.g. ADO_COMMENTING.md) linked from Step 7 to shorten the main body.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Largely lean and table/command-driven with purposeful justifications (e.g. why a detached worktree, why a soft-reset), but a few explanatory sentences and the verbose Philosophy section could be trimmed slightly without losing clarity.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable guidance throughout: exact git/az/gh commands with clearly marked placeholders, the ado MCP tool with precise field shapes, and a REST fallback with the exact URI, resource GUID, and JSON body template.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Eight clearly sequenced steps with explicit validation checkpoints (auth check → recovery, verify the real file set before surfacing, read existing threads to avoid duplicates, human approval before AI-drafted comments) and a dedicated error-handling section with feedback loops for stale origin, fork PRs, and locked worktrees.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-organized into clear headed sections with tables and code blocks and no nested references, but it is a single ~155-line file with detailed reference-like material (ADO REST/MCP field shapes) inlined that could optionally live in a separate reference file.

Description

83%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, specific description that concretely names its actions and platform coverage with low conflict risk. Its main weakness is the 'when' guidance, which relies on a negative anti-pattern trigger rather than an explicit positive 'Use when...' clause.

Suggestions

Add an explicit positive trigger such as 'Use when the user wants to review a pull request locally in their editor' alongside the existing anti-pattern trigger.

Front-load the core trigger phrase ('Use when reviewing a PR locally') before the detailed mechanism description so the 'when' is immediately visible.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions with comprehensive coverage: pulling a PR into an isolated worktree, auto-detecting platform and identifiers from the URL, and posting comments back via ADO MCP tools, ADO REST API, and the gh CLI for GitHub.

5 / 5

Completeness

The 'what' is stated clearly and concretely, and an explicit 'when' trigger exists ('If you find yourself checking out a PR branch over the user's own working tree, or posting AI-authored review prose the human did not ask for, invoke this skill instead'), but the trigger is framed as a negative anti-pattern rather than a positive 'Use when reviewing a PR' clause.

4 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Good natural-term coverage including 'pull request', 'PR', 'review', 'review comments', 'Azure DevOps', and 'GitHub'; a few common phrasings a user might say (e.g. 'review a PR locally') are present but not exhaustively enumerated.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche — isolated-worktree local PR review with human-controlled comment posting across ADO and GitHub — with distinct triggers and minimal overlap risk with other skills.
