Non-interactive wrapper over pr-review that emits JSON assessing whether a PR is ready for a human maintainer's time.

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

PR Review Readiness is an agent skill from pytorch/pytorch. Non-interactive wrapper over pr-review that emits JSON assessing whether a PR is ready for a human maintainer's time.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k 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 repository describes itself as: Tensors and Dynamic neural networks in Python with strong GPU acceleration.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “/pr-review-readiness”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit db1f617. 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

PR Review Readiness loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,069 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,069 words (~1,786 tokens).

“Read and apply pr-review/SKILL.md, all nine Review Philosophy points, and its full review-checklist.md, bc-guidelines.md and ci-runner-naming.md. pr-review owns the review logic; this file overrides conflicts.”
