## What it does

The skill takes a PR number, pulls it from the tracker and reviews it in an isolated worktree, so your current checkout stays untouched. The review itself runs through the `om-code-review` engine. When a PR touches only specs and design docs, a specification review runs instead. The verdict goes out as soon as the review is decided, without waiting for CI to turn green: conflicts and failing checks land as blocker findings inside the report, so the author gets the full picture in one pass.

Then the autofix loop starts — conflicts first, findings next, CI last — until the PR is merge-ready. That only happens on the automation's own PRs or when `--autofix` is passed. Other authors' branches are left alone without the flag; they get the review and a handoff. You need `om-code-review` installed, otherwise the run stops and names it. The skill also reads `.ai/agentic.config.json` and a tracker descriptor, and runs `om-setup-agent-pipeline` if they are missing.

Auto-skills must not clobber each other, so the run opens with a lock check: an `in-progress` label, a foreign assignee, or a recent claim comment from another actor. A claimed PR is left alone and you get asked — `--force` is the only way past that check. Feedback already left on the PR by other people is collected and carried into the report as inherited findings.

## When to use it
- review a PR by number without switching branches
- get a verdict and pipeline labels in one run
- push conflicts and failing checks to merge-ready with autofix
- run a separate review over a spec-only PR
- carry over other reviewers' comments as findings

## Example prompts
- /om-auto-review-pr 1234
- /om-auto-review-pr 1234 --autofix
- /om-auto-review-pr 1234 --force

name: om-auto-review-pr
description: Review or re-review a PR by number in an isolated worktree. Runs the `om-code-review` skill — or, for spec-only design PRs, a specification review — submits approve/request-changes, manages pipeline labels. On changes-requested, the autofix loop (fix/test/validate/re-review until merge-ready) runs on the automation's own PRs or with --autofix; other authors' PRs get review + handoff only. Usage - /om-auto-review-pr <PR-number> [--autofix]

# Auto Review PR

Review a pull request by number without touching the current worktree. Fetch the exact PR from the tracker, review it in an isolated worktree, and submit the verdict — **as soon as the review is decided, never waiting for CI to go green and never skipping the review because a signal is already red**: conflicts and failing checks become blocker findings *inside* the full review, so one cycle leaves the author the whole picture. When blockers remain **and the run is autofix-eligible** (the automation's own PR, or `--autofix` passed), continue into the autonomous autofix flow — conflicts first, then findings, then CI — until the PR is ready or a non-actionable blocker remains. Without `--autofix` on another author's PR the run ends with the review and the author handoff; it never modifies someone else's branch uninstructed.

## Arguments

- `{prNumber}` (required) — the PR number to review or re-review (for example `1234`)
- `--autofix` (optional) — run the step 11 autofix loop even when the PR belongs to another author (without it, the loop runs only on PRs authored by `$CURRENT_USER` — the automation fixing its own work). Pass it when the user asked for the PR to be fixed; the fixing chains (`om-auto-fix-pr`, `om-auto-fix-issue`) pass it explicitly.
- `--force` (optional) — bypass the in-progress concurrency check; use when intentionally taking over a PR that another auto-skill or human already claimed
