Inputs

InputRequiredMeaning
investigation-rootNoDirectory for large temporary artifacts such as worktrees, sources, builds, examples, and installs. Final deliverables still go under reviews/ in the caller's current directory. If omitted, infer a short same-drive path when clear; otherwise ask. Never use the Copilot session directory or an arbitrary long temp path.
review-depthNoOne of no-examples, examples, or examples-and-patches. Default to no-examples.

Example invocations

  • /review-vcpkg-prs-today investigation-root D:/vcpkg-prs
  • /review-vcpkg-prs-today review-depth examples
  • /review-vcpkg-prs-today investigation-root D:/vcpkg-prs and review-depth examples

Procedure

  1. Discover candidate PRs with the GitHub Search API or gh api, not by paging the generic pulls list. Filter to:
    • repo:microsoft/vcpkg
    • is:pr
    • is:open
    • draft:false
    • updated:>=<today minus 30 days>
  2. Prefer authenticated requests via gh or GITHUB_TOKEN; unauthenticated limits are usually too low for a full batch.
  3. For each candidate PR, fetch the changed file list and identify touched ports from paths matching ports/<portname>/.
  4. Group competing PRs only by the specific port or ports they share. Put PRs that touch no port in a separate index section.
  5. Review every candidate independently with a general-purpose worker using its default high-capability model; do not override it with a fast or lightweight model. Every worker must read all of .github/skills/shared/review-vcpkg-pr-guide.md and treat every instruction as mandatory. Group competing PRs only in the final index.md.
  6. Write each report when completed. Write index.md last from the final per-PR results and port-specific competition groups.

Parallel execution safety

  1. Give each concurrent worker its own writable detached worktree or equivalent detached-HEAD workspace. Never share a writable repository path between workers.
  2. Create all isolated workspaces before launching workers. Copy vcpkg.exe (Windows) or vcpkg (non-Windows) into each one; for example, after git worktree add D:\vcpkg2 origin/master, copy .\vcpkg.exe to D:\vcpkg2.
  3. Use the caller's working tree only when exactly one worker is active and the user explicitly allows it.

index.md content

index.md must include:

  1. Coverage summary, including how many PRs were reviewed, skipped, or failed.
  2. PRs grouped by the shared guide's verdicts: approve, approve-with-notes, request-changes, and unknown.
  3. Competing PRs grouped by shared modified port.
  4. PRs with no touched ports/<portname>/ entries.
  5. PRs that failed to review, with a short reason instead of silently omitting them.

Required output layout

Write all deliverables under reviews/ in the caller's current directory, not under investigation-root. Each worker substitutes its PR number for {{PR_NUMBER}}; the shared guide defines report.md.

reviews/
├── index.md
├── pr-12345/
│   ├── report.md
│   └── patches/
│       └── *.patch
└── pr-12346/
    ├── report.md

Do not stop until reviews/index.md and reviews/pr-{{PR_NUMBER}}/report.md for each reviewed PR number exist and are complete.
