Gh ci watch
(1) Rigorous notes and solutions for core algorithms and computing fundamentals broken down for deliberate practice with Anki. (2) A monorepo of libraries and CLI tools I use regularly as a software engineer.

What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Watch GitHub PR checks with gh, poll until green/failure/timeout, fetch failed GitHub Actions logs, save logs locally, summarize actionable CI failures, and apply trivial local fixes when safe. Use when the user asks to watch PR checks, wait for CI, inspect failed actions, fix obvious CI failures, or summarize gh pr checks results.

GitHub CI Watch
Watch GitHub pull request CI until checks pass, fail with actionable logs, or reach a timeout. Keep noisy command output out of the final answer. Save detailed logs locally, then report the important failures clearly. If the logs show a trivial, high-confidence local fix, make it and stage only the files touched by that fix.
Workflow
-
Identify the PR:
- If the user gives a PR number or URL, use it.
- Otherwise use the repository at the current working directory.
- Infer the PR associated with the current branch using
gh pr view. - If there is no PR for the current branch, stop and report that blocker.
- Do not switch branches or repositories unless the user explicitly asks.
-
Create a local temporary log directory:
- Use a deterministic base under
${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/<owner>__<repo>/. - Prefer this shape:
${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/<owner>__<repo>/pr-<number>-checks/<utc-timestamp>/ - Sanitize
<owner>__<repo>and branch fallback names to lowercase letters, numbers, dots, underscores, and hyphens. - Use
gh repo view --json nameWithOwnerandgh pr view --json numberwhen available. - If no PR number is available yet, use
branch-<branch-slug>instead ofpr-<number>-checks. - Create subfiles such as
checks.txt,summary.md, andrun-<id>-<job>.logas useful. - Tell the user the final log directory path.
- Use a deterministic base under
-
Check status:
- Run
gh pr checks. - If checks are pending, queued, in progress, or running, wait and poll again.
- Default poll interval: 20 seconds.
- Default timeout: 30 minutes unless the user specifies otherwise.
- Run
-
On failure:
- Identify failed workflow runs and jobs.
- Use
gh run viewandgh run view --logor job-specific logs when useful. - Save logs into the temp directory.
- Extract the most relevant error snippets.
- Report failed check name, workflow, job, conclusion, and likely cause.
-
Apply trivial local fixes when safe:
- First run
git status --shortand keep track of pre-existing dirty files. - Only edit when the failure is narrow, local, and high-confidence, such as: formatting/lint errors with exact file locations, missing imports, typecheck errors with obvious symbol names, or a deterministic test failure caused by a small mistake in the PR's changed code.
- Do not perform broad refactors, dependency changes, workflow edits, flaky test workarounds, or product behavior changes without asking first.
- Do not overwrite or revert unrelated user changes.
- After editing, run the smallest relevant local verification command if it is clear from the logs or repo conventions.
- Stage only files changed by the fix with
git add <paths>. - If a file was already dirty before the fix, do not stage it unless the entire file change is clearly part of this fix. Report the situation instead of risking staging unrelated work.
- Never commit or push unless the user explicitly asks.
- After staging, continue watching CI only if the user has already pushed the fix or explicitly asks you to push. Otherwise report the staged local fix and stop.
- First run
-
On success:
- Report that all PR checks are green.
- Include PR number, elapsed time, and final check summary.
Constraints
- Stay read-only for remote services unless the user explicitly asks for a remote mutating action.
- Local code edits are allowed only for trivial, high-confidence CI fixes from the logs.
- Stage trivial local fixes with
git add <paths>when safe. - Do not push commits.
- Do not rerun, cancel, approve, merge, or mutate GitHub state unless the user explicitly asks.
- Prefer foreground monitoring. Do not start a background shell unless the user explicitly asks for background monitoring.
- If GitHub CLI auth is missing or
ghfails, stop and report the blocker. - If checks remain pending at timeout, report current status and log directory.
