# Analyze a Pull Request Value Stream

Run the deterministic read-only analyzer once for one pull request. Every invocation collects the complete observable retained lifetime. It writes a Perfetto-compatible trace, summary, and manifest under `.nemoclaw-maintainer/pr-value-stream/pr-<number>/` and emits the summary as bounded JSON on stdout.

Do not run a reduced or latest-revision-only analysis. The latest-revision waterfall remains one derived part of the complete lifetime result.

## Prerequisites

- Run from a NemoClaw checkout with authenticated `gh` access.
- Use Node.js 22.19 or later with type stripping enabled.
- Retained Vitest artifact timing is conditional: install this checkout's dependencies so `node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs` is available, and install `zipinfo` and `unzip`. Optional artifact failures appear in `caveats` and do not become test-timing evidence.

## Run the analysis

```bash
node --no-warnings \
  .agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-analyze-pr-value-stream/scripts/analyze-pr-value-stream.mts \
  --workdir "$PWD" \
  --number <pull-request-number>
```

The default repository is `NVIDIA/NemoClaw`. Use `--repository OWNER/REPO` only when the user requests another repository. The ten-minute target defaults to 10; use `--target-minutes` only when the user requests another target.

The analyzer owns completeness and safety bounds. Do not use legacy pagination or truncation options to reduce the standard analysis. If required retained history exceeds a bound, the command fails rather than calling a partial trace complete.

## Outputs

A successful invocation writes:
