## Description

List open pull requests where the ball is in the maintainer's court: CI is green and the PR is ready for a maintainer to review, re-review, or merge. Use when the user wants to see PRs awaiting maintainer action.

# List PRs Awaiting Maintainer Action

Identify open pull requests where the ball is in the **maintainer's** court, the PR is ready and the next action belongs to a maintainer (review, re-review, or merge), not the author.

## Signals That the Ball Is on the Maintainer's Side

- CI is fully green: every check is passing, with none failing or pending.
- The PR is not a draft.
- And at least one of:
  - The PR was newly opened and has not been reviewed yet (awaiting first review).
  - The author pushed new commits after a `CHANGES_REQUESTED` review (re-review needed).
  - The author has replied to or resolved the review comments and is now waiting on the maintainer.
  - A maintainer review was requested and has not yet been provided.
- The most recent meaningful activity is from the author (or CI), not an unanswered maintainer question.

Exclude a PR when the next action clearly belongs to the author (see the complementary `prs-awaiting-author` skill): CI failing, unaddressed review comments, changes requested without follow-up commits, or an open maintainer question awaiting the author's reply.

## Step 1: List Open Non-Draft PRs

```bash
gh pr list --state open --limit 100 --json number,title,author,isDraft,createdAt,updatedAt,url,reviewDecision,reviewRequests
```

Skip any PR where `isDraft` is `true`.

## Step 2: Gather Per-PR Signals

For each candidate PR, gather details (run in parallel across PRs where practical):

- **CI status**: `gh pr checks <number>`, treat as green only if every check is passing and none are pending or failing.
- **Reviews and decision**: `gh pr view <number> --json reviewDecision,reviews,latestReviews,reviewRequests`.
- **Discussion and who spoke last**: `gh pr view <number> --comments`, and if needed `gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<number>/comments` for inline review threads.
- **Commit timeline vs. last review time**: to determine whether the author pushed commits after a `CHANGES_REQUESTED` review.
