What it does

Factory Review PRs is an agent skill from BuilderIO/skills. Experimental workflow for reviewing configured repositories' pull requests. Use for manual or scheduled PR triage, approval, or merge decisions.

Its SKILL.md is about 610 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Scheduled PR triage
  • Merge decisions

Example prompts

  • “/factory-review-prs”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read live state from the configured host. Exclude drafts and PRs outside the
  2. Inspect the diff, linked issues, required checks, review threads, author
  3. Report actionable findings with file, line, impact, and a concrete fix. If

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit da158ca. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Factory Review PRs loads about 612 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 306 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~612

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Factory Review PRs

Start with the Factory guide for workflow setup and configuration.

This skill reviews a filtered queue. For one long-lived, explicitly authorized PR, use factory-babysit-pr. Read the filters and independent action policies from .agent-factory/config.yaml; see the configuration reference. Apply the optional skill_prompts.factory-review-prs entry as additional project guidance; it does not replace this skill or authorize an action disabled by policy.

Review the queue

For each candidate PR:

  1. Read live state from the configured host. Exclude drafts and PRs outside the configured filters. Skip a PR with a current review unless re-review is requested by policy.
  2. Inspect the diff, linked issues, required checks, review threads, author eligibility, and exact head revision. Treat bot findings as leads and preserve human review direction unless source evidence disproves it.
  3. Report actionable findings with file, line, impact, and a concrete fix. If none exist, record that outcome without inventing a comment.

Unavailable or partial state is unknown, never a clean result.

Apply separate action gates

ActionProceed only when
ReviewThe PR matches configured filters and has not already had the required current review.
Reply or other PR writeThat action is enabled and its conditions hold. Use configured wording; do not tag, assign, or message otherwise.
ApproveApproval is enabled and author, risk, ownership, current-head, check, and review conditions are verified.
MergeMerge is separately enabled; every live merge condition and any soak hold on the unchanged head.

Host-level mergeability, one green check, or a bot approval does not prove all gates passed. Re-read the exact head and live state immediately before an approval or merge. Restart a configured soak if the head or a gate changes.

Report

For each PR, state the decision and evidence. List skipped, unavailable, and held PRs with the reason. Keep review findings separate from approvals, replies, and merge decisions.
