feat(pr-maintenance): add bot authority, synthesis workflow, and acknowledged vs resolved fix#402
Conversation
Closes #400 When the PR maintenance workflow runs and finds no PRs requiring automated action, users couldn't tell why "0 PRs processed" appeared. This adds a GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY message explaining: - Total PRs scanned - Actions taken (comments acknowledged, conflicts resolved) - Why no actions were needed (normal when awaiting human review) Changes: - Add TotalPRs to results for visibility reporting - Add step summary output in GitHub Actions context - Explain "no actions" scenario (awaiting review, no bot comments) This is the minimal fix that was attempted in PR #395, which scope- exploded to 847 lines. This fix is 42 lines as intended. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Code Review
This pull request adds a helpful summary message to the GitHub Actions output, improving visibility when the PR maintenance script runs. The implementation is clean and directly addresses the issue. I've found one minor issue in the new summary message where the explanation for why no actions were taken can be misleading under certain conditions. My suggestion provides a more accurate message. Otherwise, the changes look good.

Pull request overview
This PR adds visibility messaging to the PR maintenance workflow when zero PRs are processed. It addresses the issue where users couldn't understand why "0 PRs processed" appeared in workflow logs by adding a GitHub Actions step summary that explains the results.
- Adds
TotalPRstracking to the results hashtable - Implements
GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARYoutput with explanatory messaging for zero-action scenarios - Provides context-aware explanations distinguishing between "no PRs exist" and "PRs exist but need no action"
BREAKING CHANGE: Bot-authored PRs with CHANGES_REQUESTED are no longer skipped as "blocked". They are now tracked separately in ActionRequired for agent intervention via pr-comment-responder. The previous logic incorrectly treated ALL CHANGES_REQUESTED PRs as "blocked, needs human action". This was wrong for bot-authored PRs: - Human-authored PR with CHANGES_REQUESTED: Truly blocked, human must act - Bot-authored PR with CHANGES_REQUESTED: Agent should address feedback Changes: - Add Test-IsBotAuthor helper function with documented bot patterns - Update Invoke-PRMaintenance to distinguish bot vs human authors - Add ActionRequired list to results for bot PRs needing attention - Update GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY to list actionable bot PRs - Add 7 tests for Test-IsBotAuthor function - Create memory: pr-changes-requested-semantics Evidence: PRs #247, #246, #235 were incorrectly skipped when they had CHANGES_REQUESTED from human reviewers on bot-authored code.

Additional Context for Reviewing Invoke-PRMaintenance.ps1 and the PR Maintenance Workflow
-
Workflow Definition & Invocation
The PR Maintenance process is implemented as a GitHub Actions workflow in.github/workflows/pr-maintenance.yml. It is scheduled to run hourly viacronand can also be triggered manually. The workflow performs environment validation, API rate-limit checks, invokes theInvoke-PRMaintenance.ps1script, parses its results, and creates GitHub Issues for any blocked PRs or workflow failures. -
Core Maintenance Tasks
During each run, the workflow and script together:- Acknowledge bot-authored comments on PRs
- Detect and resolve merge conflicts
- Close superseded or stale PRs
- Identify PRs blocked by
CHANGES_REQUESTEDreviews and report them as “Action Required” or “Blocked” - Emit a step summary of totals (e.g., Total Open PRs, Blocked, Conflicts Resolved) to
GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARYwhen zero PRs require action.
-
Invoke-PRMaintenance.ps1 Parameters
The PowerShell script supports:-Owner(repository owner)-Repo(repository name)-DryRun(switch to simulate actions without making changes)-MaxPRs(max PRs to process per run; default 20)-LogPath(path for detailed logs, e.g.,.agents/logs/pr-maintenance.log).
-
Configuration Hashtable
The script uses a$script:Confighashtable to control behavior:ProtectedBranches: branches excluded from direct updates (e.g.,main,develop)BotAuthors: array of bot usernames whose comments must be acknowledged (e.g.,coderabbitai[bot],github-actions)AcknowledgeReaction: emoji used to acknowledge comments (default:eyes).
-
Processing Flow
On execution,Invoke-PRMaintenance:- Fetches all open PRs
- Iterates through each PR, updating counters in a results object (e.g., TotalPRs, ActionRequired, Blocked)
- For PRs with a
CHANGES_REQUESTEDreview, it marks human-authored PRs as Blocked (skipping further automation) and bot-authored PRs as ActionRequired (continues processing downstream) - Aggregates results and, if no automated actions occur, emits a clear
GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARYexplaining why zero PRs were processed.
-
Documentation & Links
Detailed overview and architecture diagrams for this workflow are available on the GitHub Skills Library wiki page of the repository. For implementation details, see:- Wiki: GitHub Skills Library section (covers PR Maintenance workflow)
