Respond to VCS Issue/PR/MR

Post a response to a GitHub issue/PR or GitLab issue/MR.

Provider detection: Check the URL or remote:

• If GitHub → use gh issue comment / gh pr comment
• If GitLab → use glab issue note / glab mr note

Arguments

• issue-or-pr-number-or-url: Either a number (e.g., 123) or a full URL

Workflow

1. Parse the input — if given a URL, extract owner, repo, type (issue/PR), and number. If just a number, determine type from current repo context.
2. Ensure repo is cloned to /workspace/personal/<repo-name> (clone with gh repo clone if needed).
3. Get full context — read the original description and all comments in the thread.
4. Understand what's being asked — if this is from @agent-swarm, focus on what was asked in that mention.
5. Formulate and post your response using gh issue comment / gh pr comment (or glab equivalents).

Decision Framework

• What specific question or request needs addressing?
• Do you need to provide code examples?
• Should you ask clarifying questions?
• Is this something you can resolve, or do you need human input?

Tips

• Check if there's already a PR addressing an issue before responding
• For complex requests, acknowledge receipt and outline your plan
• If you've completed work, link to the relevant PR or commit
