What it does

PR Threads Resolve is an agent skill from posit-dev/skills. Bulk resolve unresolved PR review threads on the current branch’s PR — typically after threads have been addressed manually or via /pr-threads-address

Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code; requires gh CLI and gh-pr-review extension

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Claude Skills from Posit. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “/pr-threads-resolve”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code; requires gh CLI and gh-pr-review extension

Workflow steps

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

  1. Fetch and display all unresolved PR review threads
  2. Show thread details (file, line, comment text)
  3. Ask for confirmation or allow selective resolution
  4. Resolve the confirmed threads
  5. Report back with a summary of resolved threads

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0300946. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • jq

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use 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.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code; requires gh CLI and gh-pr-review extension

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

PR Threads Resolve loads about 548 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 169 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~548

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.

Prerequisites

gh pr-review extension

Before using this command, check if the gh pr-review extension is installed:

bash
gh extension list | grep -q pr-review || gh extension install agynio/gh-pr-review
Resolve PR context first

Every gh pr-review subcommand requires both --pr <number> and --repo <owner/repo> — do not omit either. Look the values up once at the start of the workflow and substitute the literal numbers and slugs into every later command.

Get the PR number for the current branch:

bash
gh pr view --json number -q .number

Get the repository slug:

bash
gh repo view --json nameWithOwner -q .nameWithOwner

Then pass the resulting values directly — e.g. --pr 42 --repo posit-dev/skills — on every subsequent gh pr-review call in this workflow (list, resolve, view, reply).

Workflow

  1. Fetch and display all unresolved PR review threads
  2. Show thread details (file, line, comment text)
  3. Ask for confirmation or allow selective resolution
  4. Resolve the confirmed threads
  5. Report back with a summary of resolved threads

CLI Reference

List Review Threads
bash
gh pr-review threads list --pr <number> --repo <owner/repo>

Filter with --unresolved or --resolved.

Resolve / Unresolve Threads
bash
gh pr-review threads resolve --thread-id <PRRT_...> --pr <number> --repo <owner/repo>
gh pr-review threads unresolve --thread-id <PRRT_...> --pr <number> --repo <owner/repo>
Bulk Resolve Example

Substitute the actual PR number and repo slug resolved in "Resolve PR context first" — the 42 / owner/repo below are placeholders.

bash
gh pr-review threads list --pr 42 --unresolved --repo owner/repo | \
  jq -r '.threads[].id' | \
  xargs -I {} gh pr-review threads resolve --thread-id {} --pr 42 --repo owner/repo
