description: "OSS maintainer fast-close workflow for GitHub PRs. Three phases: (1) PR intelligence — reads full thread, linked issues, PR body to synthesize contribution motivation and classify every comment into action items; (2) conflict resolution — checks out PR branch (fork-aware via gh pr checkout), merges BASE into it, resolves conflicts semantically using contributor's intent as priority lens; (3) implements each action item via specialist agents (Codex for eligible mechanical items) and commits per the chosen commit mode — one attributed commit per item by default — then pushes back to contributor's fork. Supports three source modes: pr (live GitHub comments only), report (latest /review report findings as action items, no GitHub re-fetch), and pr + report (both sources aggregated and deduplicated in one pass). Also accepts bare comment text for single-comment dispatch. NOT for reply drafting to /oss:analyse findings (use /oss:analyse --reply). NOT for code diff review of PR changes (use /oss:review). NOT for release preparation (use /oss:release). NOT for fixing local bugs unrelated to a PR (use /develop:fix; requires develop plugin). TRIGGER when: PR is ready to close and has open comments, conflicts, or review findings to address; user says 'close this PR', 'resolve comments on PR #N', or 'implement review findings'."

<objective>

OSS maintainer fast-close workflow. PR number → three phases fire automatically:

1. **PR intelligence** — synthesize motivation from PR body, linked issues, thread; classify comments into action items 2. **Conflict resolution** — checkout PR branch (fork-aware), merge `BASE_REF`, resolve conflicts with contributor intent as priority lens 3. **Action item implementation** — implement each item (specialists first, Codex for eligible mechanical items), committed per `COMMIT_MODE` — default one commit per item, attributed to its review comment — then push to contributor's fork

Result: conflict-free PR branch pushed to fork, ready to merge — no GitHub UI.

**Core invariant — transparent, reversible**: every action = visible named git object. Use `git merge` (new commit, two parents), never `git rebase` (rewrites SHA, kills revert/cherry-pick). Default commit mode `each`: every action item = own commit — granular revert always possible. The Step 3d modes `grouped`, `all` and `stage` trade that granularity for fewer commits (or none); every one still leaves named git objects, never rewritten history.

Bare comment text → skip to Codex dispatch (Step 12).

</objective>

<inputs>

  • **Preflight side effect**: fetches `origin` to refresh remote refs; never pulls or merges the caller's branch.
  • **$ARGUMENTS**: one of:
  • Omitted → **review-handoff mode**: auto-detect PR from most recent `.reports/review/pr-*/run-*/review-report.md` or the legacy pre-rename `.reports/review/*/review-report.md` (both oss lineage, same schema) or `.reports/codex/review/*/review-notes.md` (codex lineage, detected but not parsed — see Step 0 lineage guard)
  • PR number (e.g. `42` or `#42`) or GitHub PR URL → **pr mode**
  • `report` (bare word) → **report mode**: latest review findings as action items; no GitHub re-fetch
  • `42 report` or `<URL> report` (order-invariant: `report 42` is the same request) → **pr + report mode**: aggregate live GitHub comments + review report, deduplicated in one pass. The `report` word **adds** the report as a second source; it never suppresses the GitHub fetch — bare `report` (no PR number) is the no-GitHub mode
  • Bare review comment text → **comment dispatch mode** (jumps to Step 12)
  • **`--no-challenge`**: optional — skip challenge gate per item; all selected items treated as `VALID`
  • **`--no-codemap`**: optional — disable codemap structural context (on by default when codemap installed + index present)
  • **`--codemap`**: optional — strict mode: stop and report if codemap not installed or index missing
  • **`--agent <name>`**: optional — use `<name>` agent for implementation instead of Codex; must be an implementation agent or the `bridge:implement` Skill marker.
  • Bare name auto-prefixed with `foundry:` if no plugin prefix detected (e.g. `--agent sw-engineer` → `foundry:sw-engineer`; `--agent linting-expert` → `foundry:linting-expert`; `--agent doc-scribe` → `foundry:doc-scribe`); explicit prefix also accepted (`--agent foundry:sw-engineer`); see routing table in `dispatch-prelude.md`.
  • **`--agent` also applies to `INTEL_AGENT` (Step 3b thread intelligence)** — explicit real Agent types override label/title routing for classification as well.
  • `bridge:implement` is never passed to `Agent`: classification falls back to label/title routing, C1 candidates use the Skill route, and other items use the change-to-specialist table.

NOT-for additions (scope guards):

  • **NOT for non-Python source PRs** (TypeScript, Go, Rust, Java) unless action items are limited to documentation or CI/CD changes — Step 9's lint-qa gate runs Python-specific tools (`ruff`/`mypy`); non-Python PRs get partial or no static-analysis review. For non-Python repos, run `/oss:resolve` in `report` mode with manually-curated findings.
  • **NOT for branches with uncommitted local edits** — the `report`-mode no-PR# path operates on the current branch as-is; uncommitted changes would be committed alongside the action items, so its branch safety check below stops on tracked modifications (`git status --porcelain -uno`). Stash (`git stash`) or commit local edits before invoking — workflow doesn't auto-stash.

Questions about resolve.

Which coding agents can use resolve?
resolve installs in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode and Windsurf with the skills CLI, using each agent's flag shown on this page. Flowy's auto-invocation, which fires a skill when your prompt matches, runs in Claude Code only.
