Fix PR Review Feedback
Address PR review comments by implementing fixes and responding to each comment.
When to Use
- PR has open review comments requiring responses
- Ready to implement reviewer's requested changes
- Need to notify reviewers of fixes
- PR is blocked on feedback
Quick Reference
# 1. Get all review comments
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/PR/comments --jq '.[] | {id: .id, path: .path, body: .body}'
# 2. Make fixes to code
# [edit files, test, format]
# 3. Commit changes
git add . && git commit -m "fix: address PR review feedback"
# 4. Reply to EACH comment
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/PR/comments/COMMENT_ID/replies \
--method POST -f body="✅ Fixed - [brief description]"
# 5. Push and verify
git push
gh pr checks PR
Workflow
- Fetch review comments: List all comments requiring response
- Analyze feedback: Understand all requested changes
- Make changes: Edit code to address each comment
- Run tests: Verify fixes pass locally
- Commit changes: Create single focused commit
- Reply to comments: Reply to EACH comment individually (critical!)
- Push and verify: Push changes and check CI status
Reply Format
Keep responses SHORT and CONCISE (1 line preferred):
✅ Fixed - Updated conftest.py to use real repository root✅ Fixed - Removed duplicate test file✅ Fixed - Added error handling for edge case
Critical: Two Types of Comments
PR-level comments (general timeline):
gh pr comment <pr> --body "Response"
Review comment replies (inline code feedback):
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/PR/comments/COMMENT_ID/replies \
--method POST -f body="✅ Fixed - description"
NEVER confuse these - use the correct API for review comments.
Error Handling
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Comment ID invalid | Verify ID using API |
| Auth failure | Run gh auth status |
| Reply not appearing | Check API endpoint syntax |
| CI fails after push | Review logs and fix issues |
Verification
After addressing feedback:
- All review comments have replies
- Changes committed and pushed
- CI checks passing
- No new issues introduced
