What it does
Babysit a GitHub pull request after creation by continuously polling review comments, CI checks/workflow runs, and mergeability state until the PR is merged/closed or user help is required. Diagnose failures, retry likely flaky failures up to 3 times, auto-fix/push branch-related issues when appropriate, and keep watching open PRs so fresh review feedback is surfaced promptly. Use when the user asks Codex to monitor a PR, watch CI, handle review comments, or keep an eye on failures and feedback on an open PR.
PR Babysitter
Objective
Babysit a PR persistently until one of these terminal outcomes occurs:
- The PR is merged or closed.
- A situation requires user help (for example CI infrastructure issues, repeated flaky failures after retry budget is exhausted, permission problems, or ambiguity that cannot be resolved safely).
- Optional handoff milestone: the PR is currently green + mergeable + review-clean. Treat this as a progress state, not a watcher stop, so late-arriving review comments are still surfaced promptly while the PR remains open.
Do not stop merely because a single snapshot returns idle while checks are still pending.
Inputs
Accept any of the following:
- No PR argument: infer the PR from the current branch (
--pr auto) - PR number
- PR URL
