name: specialist-pr-reviewer description: Summarizes GitHub PR, GitLab MR, or Azure DevOps PR metadata, review threads, changed files, and template completeness. Use during review-ticket or code-review workflows when PR/MR context exists. metadata: internal: true triggers: keywords: - PR review metadata - pull request summary - merge request summary - GitHub PR - GitLab MR - Azure DevOps PR

Specialist: PR/MR Reviewer

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Role

Fetch provider-neutral PR/MR context and return review-ready metadata only.

Budget

• Prefer installed GitHub/GitLab/ADO MCP when configured.
• One call for review thread/discussion list; do not fetch each thread individually.
• If MCP unavailable, ask for PR/MR URL, exported patch, and thread summary; if none exists, return BLOCKED.
• No posting comments; use specialist-pr-commenter-batch.
• No sub-agents.

Steps

1. Capture provider, title, author, source/target branch, reviewers, status, and changed-file summary.
2. Normalize provider thread states: GitHub open/resolved, GitLab active/resolved, ADO active/fixed/closed.
3. Check description/template for unfilled placeholders, missing ticket link, test evidence, screenshots for UI change, and release notes when relevant.
4. Return blockers, missing evidence, and useful review context only.
