## What it does

This skill opens changed surfaces in a real browser to create visual test evidence with screenshots and pass or fail verdicts. It operates strictly in read-only mode on repository source code. It never modifies files or merges branches. In pull request mode, it verifies the code review status first. If no review exists, it invokes `om-auto-review-pr` before attaching visual evidence to the pull request discussion.

The skill does not boot your application by itself. It expects `om-prepare-test-env` to start an instance and write a provider descriptor beforehand. Without a tracker or PR number, it runs locally against current worktree diffs and writes output to `.ai/qa/artifacts_<runId>`. Missing companion skills stop execution immediately until installed.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-auto-qa-pr -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/om-auto-qa-pr/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/om-auto-qa-pr/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-auto-qa-pr -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/om-auto-qa-pr/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-auto-qa-pr -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/om-auto-qa-pr/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install open-mercato/skills om-auto-qa-pr
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/om-auto-qa-pr/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-auto-qa-pr -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/open-mercato/skills --path skills/om-auto-qa-pr
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/om-auto-qa-pr/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-auto-qa-pr -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/open-mercato/skills/tree/HEAD/skills/om-auto-qa-pr/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- verify visual UI changes in an actual browser
- capture pass-fail reports with step screenshots
- attach visual QA evidence directly to PR discussions
- audit worktree changes locally before pushing code

## Example prompts
- Run UI verification on PR 142 and attach screenshots
- Perform a local browser QA check on my current worktree
- Verify PR 88 with `--self-qa-signoff`

name: om-auto-qa-pr
description: QA a PR's UI change in a real browser through the configured browser-provider descriptor — first ensuring the PR has been reviewed (invoking om-auto-review-pr when it has not), then capturing screenshots and a pass/fail report, and optionally posting tracker evidence or self-QA labels without modifying source. Also runs in a local, tracker-less mode against the current worktree.

# Auto QA PR (UI verification)

Run the app locally, exercise the changed surfaces through a real browser, and
produce concrete visual evidence — screenshots plus a pass/fail report. When a
tracker is configured and a PR number is given, hand that evidence to reviewers
as a PR comment (and, opt-in, sign the PR off). When there is no tracker, save
the evidence as artifacts so a human can review it. Either way, the skill is
**read-only on source code**: it never edits files, never pushes to the change's
branch, and never merges.

This skill never boots the app itself — `om-prepare-test-env` provisions a runnable
instance and writes a descriptor this skill reads, so QA is identical across stacks
and shares one instance with integration tests.

## Arguments

- `{prNumber}` (optional) — the PR to verify. When given **and** a tracker is
  configured, the skill runs in **PR mode**: it claims the PR, checks out its
  head, and posts evidence as a PR comment. When omitted (or no tracker is
  configured), it runs in **local mode**: it verifies the current worktree's
  changes and writes artifacts.
- `--base <branch>` (optional) — base branch for diff and test-presence
  detection. Default: the pipeline config's `baseBranch` (resolved to the repo's
  default branch when `auto`).
- `--evidence-only` (default) — produce evidence only; do not touch pipeline/meta
  labels. Stated explicitly so the default is obvious.
- `--self-qa-signoff` (optional, PR mode) — when verification is fully green AND
  screenshots were attached AND the PR carries `needs-qa` without `skip-qa` AND
  the PR is not `risk-high` (labeled, or inferred per `SDLC.md` from the diff
  even when the current risk label is lower: auth, sessions, data scoping,
  money, schema migrations, shared contracts),
  additionally apply `qa-approved` + `qa-self-verified` via the self-QA exception
  documented in `SDLC.md`. On a `risk-high` PR the flag posts the evidence and
  withholds the sign-off, saying a QA reviewer is required. Off by default.
- `--apply-failure` (optional, PR mode) — on failure, apply `qa-failed`. Off by
  default (automated UI checks can be flaky; default to reporting, not blocking).
- `--keep-env` (optional) — leave the environment running on exit even if this run
  started it. Default: tear down only an env this run started, via
  `om-prepare-test-env --stop`.
- `--artifacts <dir>` (optional) — override the artifacts directory. Default:
  `<paths.qa>/artifacts_<runId>` (default `.ai/qa/artifacts_<runId>`).
- `--force` (optional, PR mode) — bypass the in-progress claim check to take over
  a PR another actor claimed.
