What Review PR Locally does

Review PR Locally checks out an Azure DevOps or GitHub pull request into an isolated git worktree so a human can inspect it in their editor. It also posts only the review comments the human explicitly requests, using ADO tools or the gh CLI.

Review PR Locally is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. Review PR Locally comes from a repository tagged collaboration, crdt, datastructure, distributed and fluid.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Review a PR Locally (ADO + GitHub)

Check out a pull request into an isolated git worktree — never disturbing the user's current checkout — surface its changes in the editor, run an interactive review where the human drives, and post only the comments the human asks for. All identifiers are derived from the PR URL, so the skill works against any ADO or GitHub repository.

Review Philosophy — high-signal, human-owned

This is the core of the skill. Violating it defeats the purpose.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
