What it does

Follow Up Review is an agent skill from gittower/git-flow-next. Re-review an incoming PR after the author responded — scoped to the delta since the last review, verifies prior requested changes, posts after confirmation

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k 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. It works with Model Context Protocol and GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A modern reimplementation of git-flow in Go that offers greater flexibility while maintaining backward compatibility with the original git-flow and git-flow-avh.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “/follow-up-review”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Write, Grep, Glob, mcp__github__get_pull_request, mcp__github__get_pull_request_files, mcp__github__get_pull_request_reviews, mcp__github__get_pull_request_comments, mcp__github__create_pull_request_review

Workflow steps

10 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Fetch Prior Round State
  2. Reconstruct the Prior Asks
  3. Read the Author's Replies First
  4. Check Out and Scope the Delta
  5. Verdict Each Prior Ask
  6. Determine the Event
  7. Write the Follow-up Draft
  8. Confirmation Gate
  9. Post
  10. Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 00d1b4b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • Read
    • Write
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • mcp__github__get_pull_request
    • mcp__github__get_pull_request_files
    • mcp__github__get_pull_request_reviews
    • mcp__github__get_pull_request_comments
    • mcp__github__create_pull_request_review

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • gh

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and gh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Follow Up Review loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 933 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k

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.

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 933 words (~2,129 tokens).

“Re-review an incoming pull request after the author has responded to a prior maintainer review. Unlike /handle-pr (a fresh full review), this skill is round-aware: it reconstructs what the last review requested, reads the author's replies, reviews only the delta…”
