Gh Fix Ci
Use when a user asks to debug or fix failing GitHub PR checks that run in GitHub Actions; use `gh` to inspect checks and logs, summarize failure context, draft a fix plan, and implement only after explicit approval. Treat external providers (for example Buildkite) as out of scope and report only the details URL.
About
# Gh Pr Checks Plan Fix
## Overview
Use gh to locate failing PR checks, fetch GitHub Actions logs for actionable failures, summarize the failure snippet, then propose a fix plan and implement after explicit approval. - If a plan-oriented skill (for example `create-plan`) is available, use it; otherwise draft a concise plan inline and request approval before implementing.
Prereq: authenticate with the standard GitHub CLI once (for example, run `gh auth login`), then confirm with `gh auth status` (repo + workflow scopes are typically required).
## Inputs
- `repo`: path inside the repo (default `.`) - `pr`: PR number or URL (optional; defaults to current branch PR) - `gh` authentication for the repo host
## Quick start
- `python "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "<number-or-url>"` - Add `--json` if you want machine-friendly output for summarization.
## Workflow
1. Verify gh authentication. - Run `gh auth status` in the repo. - If unauthenticated, ask the user to run `gh auth login` (ensuring repo + workflow scopes) before proceeding. 2. Resolve the PR. - Prefer the current branch PR: `gh pr view --json number,url`. - If the user provides a PR number or URL, use that directly. 3. Inspect failing checks (GitHub Actions only). - Preferred: run the bundled script (handles gh field drift and job-log fallbacks): - `python "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "<number-or-url>"` - Add `--json` for machine-friendly output. - Manual fallback: - `gh pr checks <pr> --json name,state,bucket,link,startedAt,completedAt,workflow` - If a field is rejected, rerun with the available fields reported by `gh`. - For each failing check, extract the run id from `detailsUrl` and run: - `gh run view <run_id> --json name,workflowName,conclusion,status,url,event,headBranch,headSha` - `gh run view <run_id> --log` - If the run log says it is still in progress, fetch job logs directly: - `gh api "/repos/<owner>/<repo>/actions/jobs/<job_id>/logs" > "<path>"` 4. Scope non-GitHub Actions checks. - If `detailsUrl` is not a GitHub Actions run, label it as external and only report the URL. - Do not attempt Buildkite or other providers; keep the workflow lean. 5. Summarize failures for the user. - Provide the failing check name, run URL (if any), and a concise log snippet. - Call out missing logs explicitly. 6. Create a plan. - Use the `create-plan` skill to draft a concise plan and request approval. 7. Implement after approval. - Apply the approved plan, summarize diffs/tests, and ask about opening a PR. 8. Recheck status. - After changes, suggest re-running the relevant tests and `gh pr checks` to confirm.

### scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py
Fetch failing PR checks, pull GitHub Actions logs, and extract a failure snippet. Exits non-zero when failures remain so it can be used in automation.
Usage examples: - `python "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "123"` - `python "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123" --json` - `python "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --max-lines 200 --context 40`
