Autonomous Maintenance Orchestrator FAQs

Question 1

Can it automatically merge my code into the main branch?

Accepted Answer

No. For safety and security, the skill is forbidden from merging PRs automatically. It will report when a PR is ready to merge, but the final merge action must be performed by a human.

Question 2

Does auto-maintain modify my code directly?

Accepted Answer

No, the auto-maintain skill acts exclusively as a coordinator. It identifies tasks and dispatches sub-agents to handle specific code changes while it manages the high-level workflow and PR lifecycle.

Question 3

What happens if there are too many open pull requests?

Accepted Answer

The skill includes a PR Backlog Gate. If there are 10 or more open PRs, it enters a specialized PR-Focus mode, prioritizing the resolution of existing PRs before starting any new work.

Question 4

Does it require manual input to keep running?

Accepted Answer

The skill is designed to be fully autonomous. It follows a continuous loop and is instructed never to return to the user or ask questions until the process is terminated by the API or budget constraints.

Question 5

How does the skill handle failing CI/CD pipelines?

Accepted Answer

Resolving failing CI is the second highest priority in the core loop. The skill will identify the failure, analyze the logs, and dispatch a sub-agent specifically to fix the build or test errors.
