What it does
Babysit My PRs is an agent skill from trailofbits/coop, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Triage and shepherd all open PRs owned by the current GitHub user, isolating each writable worker in its own worktree. Use when asked to babysit or monitor the user's PR fleet.
Its SKILL.md is about 450 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 Git worktrees. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Isolated VM environment for running Claude Code and Codex. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Asked to babysit
- Monitor the users PR fleet
Example prompts
- “/babysit-my-prs”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4929257. 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:
git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, 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
Babysit My PRs loads about 453 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 220 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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
The full file from trailofbits/coop at commit 4929257, republished under its Apache-2.0 licence (© trailofbits). 220 words, ~453 tokens.

Babysit My PRs
Authenticate gh, derive the current user and origin repository, then discover
all open PRs authored by that user. Never touch another author's branch.
For each PR, collect CI state, required-job presence, base divergence, merge state, inline review threads, top-level reviews, and PR comments. Classify it as:
- Work needed: a mechanical base merge, settled CI fix, or concrete review correction.
- Deferred: a semantic conflict, optional suggestion, integration-host failure, scope/security/design judgment, or ambiguous feedback.
- Clean: no actionable feedback, required checks present and green, and no conflict.
When parallel agents are available and the user requested action, delegate one
worker per work-needed PR. Each worker must use a separate detached worktree,
acquire a per-PR lock, and follow babysit-pr. Push
with git push origin HEAD:refs/heads/<branch>; never update the parent
checkout's branch ref. Do not dispatch deferred items.
If recurring monitoring is available and requested, schedule a sweep with a non-overlapping cadence, keep lock/deferred state outside the repository, and run an initial sweep immediately. If the environment has no scheduler, perform one sweep and state that limitation; do not emulate a daemon with a blocking sleep loop.
Every sweep reports open, in-flight, dispatched, deferred, and clean counts and prints the full deferred-decision ledger. Stop recurring monitoring only when asked. Running workers may finish, but no new workers should be dispatched after stop.
