  • Works in 6 steps: Extract fingerprint → Search candidate issues → Classify each candidate → …

What it does

Nemoclaw Maintainer Cross Issue Sweep is an agent skill from NVIDIA/NemoClaw, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Find open issues that a NemoClaw PR may also fix or conflict with. Use when related-issue analysis is requested.

Its SKILL.md is about 890 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 13 other files, including scripts (for example `checks/fingerprint-extraction.md`, `checks/relationship-judgment.md` and `relationship-rules.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Run agents like Hermes, LangChain Deep Agents, and OpenClaw more securely inside NVIDIA OpenShell with managed inference. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Related-issue analysis is requested

Example prompts

  • “/nemoclaw-maintainer-cross-issue-sweep”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

  1. Extract fingerprint
  2. Search candidate issues
  3. Classify each candidate
  4. Reverse-link boost
  5. Filter
  6. Render report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4e3bf44. 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

    Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Shell and Python), which the agent can run.

    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

Nemoclaw Maintainer Cross Issue Sweep loads about 893 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 363 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~893

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Cross-Issue Regression Sweep

Find open issues that a PR can affect in addition to its linked issue. Report two relationship types:

  • Adjacent fix — The PR can also resolve another issue.
  • Conflict — The PR can prevent the behavior that another issue requests.

Prerequisites

  • gh CLI authenticated
  • A target repository with open issues
  • An open PR to scan

Repo policy

The defaults use NemoClaw conventions. Edit repo-policy.md for another repository.

Workflow

Step 1: Extract fingerprint
bash
scripts/extract-fingerprint.sh <pr-number>

The script collects changed files, changed symbols, error strings, and the linked issue. See checks/fingerprint-extraction.md.

Step 2: Search candidate issues
bash
scripts/search-candidate-issues.sh <fingerprint-json>

Search these three inputs. Keep no more than 30 candidates:

  • Per symbol: top 10 by recency
  • Per file path: top 5 by recency
  • Per error string: top 5 by recency

Remove duplicates and the linked issue.

Step 3: Classify each candidate

Classify each candidate with the rules in checks/relationship-judgment.md:

  • ADJACENT_FIX — The PR can resolve this issue.
  • CONTRADICTING — The PR conflicts with the requested behavior.
  • SAME_ISSUE_DIFF — same root bug as PR's primary issue (dedup filter)
  • UNRELATED — no meaningful relationship

For ADJACENT_FIX or CONTRADICTING, cite:

  • A PR diff line.
  • An issue symptom.
  • Confidence: high / medium / low

Classify the issue as UNRELATED if this evidence is not available.

Increase confidence by one level if the issue body or comments mention the PR number.

Show full SKILL.md (146 more words)Show less
Step 5: Filter
  • Remove UNRELATED and SAME_ISSUE_DIFF results.
  • Remove low-confidence results.
  • Keep high- and medium-confidence ADJACENT_FIX and CONTRADICTING results.
Step 6: Render report
bash
scripts/render-report.py < classifications.json

See templates/report.md for the format.

Reference files

Scripts

  • scripts/extract-fingerprint.sh — symbols, paths, and error strings
  • scripts/search-candidate-issues.sh — GitHub Search wrapper, dedupe, cap
  • scripts/render-report.py — report renderer

Composition with other skills

This skill is an optional follow-up to nemoclaw-maintainer-pr-comparator. The comparator does not run this skill or use its findings in the score. Run this skill when a maintainer asks for related-issue evidence. Report the evidence separately.

Limits

The skill does not:

  • run PR code against adversarial inputs
  • trace data flow with a static analyzer such as CodeQL or Semgrep
  • disambiguate symbols across codebases with a machine-learning model
