Commit, Push, PR with CI Watch + Review Loop

Create commit, push branch, open PR, watch CI, then autonomously handle review feedback until approval.

Workflow

digraph commit_pr_flow {
    rankdir=TB;
    node [shape=box];

    start [label="Start" shape=ellipse];
    on_main [label="On main branch?" shape=diamond];
    create_branch [label="Create feature branch"];
    stage [label="Stage changes"];
    commit [label="Create commit"];
    push [label="Push with -u"];
    create_pr [label="Create PR (gh pr create)"];
    watch_ci [label="Watch CI (gh run watch --exit-status)"];
    ci_pass [label="CI passed?" shape=diamond];
    analyze_failure [label="Analyze failure logs"];
    fix_issue [label="Fix the issue"];
    commit_fix [label="Commit fix"];
    push_fix [label="Push fix"];

    review_watch [label="Step 6: Wait for reviews\n(bot + human)"];
    has_actionable [label="Actionable\ncomments?" shape=diamond];
    apply_fixes [label="Step 7: Apply fixes,\ncommit, push"];
    max_iter [label="Max iterations?" shape=diamond];
    done [label="Done - PR approved" shape=ellipse];
    stop [label="Stop - notify user" shape=ellipse];

    start -> on_main;
    on_main -> create_branch [label="yes"];
    on_main -> stage [label="no"];
    create_branch -> stage;
    stage -> commit;
    commit -> push;
    push -> create_pr;
    create_pr -> watch_ci;
    watch_ci -> ci_pass;
    ci_pass -> analyze_failure [label="no"];
    analyze_failure -> fix_issue;
    fix_issue -> commit_fix;
    commit_fix -> push_fix;
    push_fix -> watch_ci [label="CI fix loop"];

    ci_pass -> review_watch [label="yes"];
    review_watch -> has_actionable;
    has_actionable -> done [label="no / approved"];
    has_actionable -> apply_fixes [label="yes"];
    apply_fixes -> watch_ci [label="push + watch CI"];

}

Steps

1. Branch Check

CURRENT_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
if [ "$CURRENT_BRANCH" = "main" ]; then
    # Create descriptive branch from changes
    git checkout -b <branch-name>
fi

2. Stage & Commit

git add <specific-files>  # Prefer specific files over -A
git commit -m "<type>(<scope>): <description>"

Follow conventional commits. Commit message must be lowercase.

**Release-aware type selection:** Only `feat` and `fix` trigger semantic release. If the change is visible to end users (UI, CLI output, API behavior), you MUST use `feat` or `fix` — never `style`, `refactor`, or `chore`. See `.claude/rules/commit-conventions.md` for the full decision table.

3. Push & Create PR

git push -u origin $(git branch --show-current)
gh pr create --title "<title>" --body "<body>"

PR body should include:

  • Summary section with bullet points
  • Test plan with checkboxes

4. Watch CI (Critical)

# Get the latest run ID for current branch
gh run list --limit 5  # Find the run ID
gh run watch <run-id> --exit-status

**MUST wait for CI to complete.** The `--exit-status` flag returns non-zero if CI fails.

**Note:** `gh run watch` requires a run ID when not in interactive terminal.

5. Fix-Push-Watch Loop

If CI fails:

1. **Get failure logs**: `gh run view <run-id> --log-failed` 2. **Analyze root cause**: Read the error, understand the issue 3. **Fix the issue**: Make necessary code changes 4. **Commit the fix**: `git commit -m "fix(<scope>): <what was fixed>"` 5. **Push**: `git push` 6. **Get new run ID**: `gh run list --limit 1` 7. **Watch again**: `gh run watch <new-run-id> --exit-status` 8. **Repeat** until CI passes

6. Review Watch

After CI passes, wait for review comments (bot and human), then classify them.

**Phase A — Wait for review check to complete:**

# Wait for all checks including Claude Code Review to complete
gh pr checks --watch --fail-fast

# Fallback: poll for the review workflow directly
gh run list --workflow=claude-code-review.yml --limit 1 --json status,conclusion \
  --jq '.[0] | {status, conclusion}'

If the Claude Code Review check does not appear within 5 minutes, skip Phase A and proceed to Phase B (the review may not be configured for this repo).

**Phase B — Fetch all reviews from the three GitHub API endpoints:**

# 1. PR reviews (state, body, author)
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/{number}/reviews \
  --jq '.[] | {id, state, user: .user.login, user_type: .user.type, body}'

# 2. Inline review comments (file, line, content)
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/{number}/comments \
  --jq '.[] | {id, path, line, body, user: .user.login, user_type: .user.type, diff_hunk}'

# 3. Issue-level comments on the PR
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{number}/comments \
  --jq '.[] | {id, body, user: .user.login, user_type: .user.type}'

Replace `{owner}`, `{repo}`, and `{number}` with actual values from the PR URL.

**Identify reviewers:**

  • **Bot reviewer**: `user.login == "claude[bot]"` or `user.type == "Bot"`
  • **Human reviewer**: `user.type != "Bot"`

Process comments from **both** bot and human reviewers.

**Classify each comment as actionable or non-actionable:**

| Type | Actionable? | Handling | | ----------------------- | ------------ | ---------------------------------------------- | | GitHub suggestion block | Yes (direct) | Apply the suggested code as a line replacement | | Change instruction | Yes | Interpret
