PR Q&A

oh-my-pr includes a built-in PR question-answering system that lets you interrogate your pull requests using natural language.

Overview

Instead of manually reading through large diffs, you can ask questions like:

  • "What does this PR change?"
  • "Why did the tests fail?"
  • "What are the architectural implications of this change?"
  • "Does this PR introduce any security concerns?"

oh-my-pr uses an AI agent to analyze the PR diff, review comments, and commit history to provide accurate answers.

How to Use

  1. Open a PR in the oh-my-pr dashboard.
  2. Navigate to the Q&A tab.
  3. Type your question and press Enter.

The agent will analyze the PR context and return a detailed answer within seconds.

What the Agent Sees

When answering a question, the agent has access to:

  • The full diff of the PR.
  • All review comments and threads.
  • The PR description and title.
  • The commit history on the branch.
  • The surrounding code context in affected files.

Use Cases

Code Review Assistance

Ask the agent to summarize changes before you start reviewing:

"Summarize the key changes in this PR and flag anything that needs careful review."

Debugging Failed Checks

When CI fails, ask the agent to diagnose:

"The lint check is failing — what's causing it and how should it be fixed?"

Architecture Review

For larger PRs, get a high-level understanding:

"Does this PR change any public API surfaces? What are the breaking changes?"

Limitations

  • The agent only sees the PR context — it does not have access to external documentation or issue trackers.
  • Answers are generated by AI and should be verified for critical decisions.
  • Very large PRs (1000+ changed files) may exceed context limits.
