How do I identify which comment to reply to?

The skill provides a workflow to list all comments in a PR, including their IDs, paths, and bodies, allowing you to select the correct ID for your response.

Does it support verification of the posted reply?

Yes, it includes built-in verification steps to query the GitHub API and confirm that your reply has been correctly nested under the parent comment.

How does this differ from standard PR comments?

This skill specifically targets inline 'review comments' tied to specific lines of code rather than general 'PR-level' timeline comments, preserving the context of the code discussion.

Can I use this to provide long explanations for changes?

While possible, the skill's best practices recommend short, one-line responses (e.g., '✅ Fixed - updated logic') to maintain professional review hygiene and clarity.

Does this require the GitHub CLI to be installed?

Yes, the skill utilizes the 'gh' command-line interface and authenticated API calls to interact with your repository's pull request data.
