Asking an agent to fix failing CI on an existing PR ("fix ci", "ci check failing ") loaded no skill, so every run made up its own procedure. I checked 22 such requests in my OpenCode history. The agent read the failing log first in 20 of them, but none of the 12 that pushed a fix first ran done (the post-task verification skill) or a preflight-mutations card (the check before writing to a shared ref), only 2 read the push back, and 2 force-pushed. This PR adds a fix-ci skill that runs one fixed procedure, and moves the red-check rules out of the global CLAUDE.md into it so there is one copy.

What changed

• New skills/fix-ci/SKILL.md. It reads every failing job's log before any rerun or edit. It compares each failure with the base branch's latest completed run of the same workflow and stops with a proposed issue when the base fails the same way. It reruns a flake at most once per run, counting reruns someone already did. It fixes forward with new commits and never force-pushes or weakens the check. It runs done on the fix and pushes behind a preflight-mutations card that waits for a yes when the branch belongs to someone else. It reads the push back, watches the next run, and stops after two pushed fix rounds. A fork PR it cannot push to ends with the local commit and a suggested review comment.
• reference/CLAUDE.md: the five "When a check goes red" bullets are replaced by one line pointing to /fix-ci. Nothing from them was dropped. Each one is a step in the skill.
• skills/done/references/readiness-card.md: a red check on the PR now routes to fix-ci from the post-publication card, the same way review threads route to fix-pr-review. A ready-to-publish verdict on a run fix-ci started authorizes its commit and push instead of file-pr, since the PR already exists.
• README.md: fix-ci row in the skills table and the usage list.
• tools/eval/triggers.json: two cases routing "fix ci" and "ci check failing " to fix-ci, and one collision case keeping "fix the review comments on " with fix-pr-review.

How to verify

• python3 -I tools/verify_skills.py ./skills exits 0. It reports 24 warnings, one more than on main. The new one is the mirror check noting that reference/CLAUDE.md now differs from my live ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. That clears when I sync the live copy after this merges. fix-ci gets no orphan warning, because the CLAUDE.md pointer routes to it.
• python3 -m unittest discover -s tools/eval ran 282 tests, all passing.
• python3 tools/eval/run_triggers.py --case N --skill-path skills/fix-ci for the three new cases (60, 61, 62): each passed 1/1, with "fix ci" and "ci check failing " firing fix-ci and the review-comment case firing fix-pr-review.
• I rendered README.md through GitHub's markdown API and confirmed the new table row comes out as a two-cell row.

No UI or API behavior changed, so there is no browser QA.

Risk or scope notes

The live copies (~/.agents/skills/fix-ci and ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md) sync after merge, not in this PR, so no session runs on unreviewed rules.

Not filed

• fix-ci step 7's push sequence (preflight card, push without force, git ls-remote read-back) repeats refresh-drizzle-migration step 6. Pulling it into one shared place means editing another skill, which is outside this change.

Closes #106

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Added a /fix-ci <pr-url> workflow for diagnosing and fixing failed checks on an existing pull request, with safeguards and a limit of two fix rounds.
  • Added guidance to route red required checks after publication through this workflow and prevent marking a pull request ready while checks remain red.
  • Added CI request-routing coverage for the new workflow.

Walkthrough

This change adds a fix-ci skill for handling failed checks on existing PRs. It updates request routing, replaces detailed CI guidance with a skill handoff, and adjusts readiness-card publishing and post-publication rules.

Changes: Existing PR CI fixes

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Diagnose and fix failed checks skills/fix-ci/SKILL.md	The new skill verifies the PR head, reads and classifies failed checks, compares relevant failures with the base workflow run, and limits flake retries and pushed-fix rounds. It also defines fix verification, publishing checks, and reporting requirements.
Route CI-fix requests README.md, reference/CLAUDE.md, tools/eval/triggers.json	The README documents the skill and its command. CLAUDE.md directs CI-fix work to the skill. Trigger cases route CI-fix requests to fix-ci and review-comment requests without a CI mention to fix-pr-review.
Gate publishing and hand off red checks skills/done/references/readiness-card.md	The readiness card permits the specified fix-ci commit, push, and watch for an existing PR. After publication, it routes red checks to fix-ci and prevents final ready while a check remains red.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

• Issue 104 describes a readiness-card gap for fix-pr-review publishing. This change updates readiness-card rules for fix-ci, but does not address the fix-pr-review case.

Suggested reviewers: himanshujain04

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 6db9d

The new fix-ci skill has gaps in how it completes after a successful rerun, how it handles a watcher that sees no checks yet, and what publication evidence it hands back to the readiness card. These could stall or misroute CI-fix runs. Resolve them before merging.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: a red-CI fix on a PR now loads a dedicated skill, which reads logs first and preflights the push. The changeset adds skills/fix-ci/SKILL.md, updates reference/CLAUDE.md and the readiness card to route to /fix-ci, and adds README and trigger-eval entries. The title is long (102 characters, 20 words) and uses the conventional-commit prefix, but it is specific and accurate.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #106 is the only directly linked issue and it is open, so its coding requirements apply. The new skills/fix-ci/SKILL.md at the reviewed head covers each requested step: step 2 reads every failed job's log and classifies the failure before any rerun or edit; step 4 allows one gh run rerun --failed per run and counts prior attempts; step 5 fixes forward with new commits, forbids force-push and weakened checks; step 6 runs done; step 7 requires a preflight-mutations card naming the branch owner, waits for approval when the owner is not the user, and reads back the push with git ls-remote; step 8 stops after two pushed fix rounds and reports. The trigger cases for "fix ci" and "ci check failing <PR URL>" are reported as added in tools/eval/triggers.json (raw summary, not separately inspected). The issue asked that the skill point to the CLAUDE.md rules instead of copying them. The PR instead moves the rules into the skill and leaves a one-line pointer in reference/CLAUDE.md. This keeps a single copy, which serves the no-drift goal, so it does not fail the requirement. The 24-versus-22 OpenCode audit is non-coding and does not apply.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

Changes are the new fix-ci skill, the reference/CLAUDE.md replacement of the five red-check bullets with a pointer to /fix-ci (the diff shows the removed bullets are reproduced as steps in the skill), the readiness-card.md routing of red checks to fix-ci and its ready-to-publish exception for fix-ci runs, README entries, and trigger-eval cases. Each change either implements the fix-ci workflow or wires it into existing routing, which the issue's 'runs as one entry point' goal needs. No unrelated change was found. The deferred drizzle-migration consolidation is explicitly excluded in the PR and is not in the diff.

Then sorts each failure, detail by detail.
One flake retry, then fixes grow,
With preflight checked before pushes go.
Two rounds end; the report is clear.}

- Line 112: Update the ready-to-publish rule for the existing-PR fix-ci
exception to define publication evidence that the post-publication run can
verify. Require fix-ci step 7 to record the PR read-back fields needed by the
post-publication rule, or explicitly specify which PR fields that run must
check; do not treat the git ls-remote SHA read-back alone as PR-state evidence.

Review comments at @skills/fix-ci/SKILL.md:
- Line 98: Update the step 8 watcher instructions to classify a “no checks
reported” exit before checks appear for the pushed SHA as pending, not red.
Retry waiting a bounded number of times, and treat the watch as failed only if
checks remain absent after that bound; preserve the existing round-counting and
green/red procedures.
- Line 98: Update step 8 to handle a green rerun when no fix was pushed: define
valid evidence without step 7’s read-back, clarify whether `done` applies and
restrict any rerun to an already-open card, then require reporting the green
run’s URL.

PR Review: #113

❌ request-changes | No findings
Senior engineer approval: ❌ No, Two open CodeRabbit threads still describe gaps in step 8 and the readiness card handoff.

Goal: Add a fix-ci skill that runs one fixed procedure for red checks on an existing PR, and move the red-check rules out of global CLAUDE.md into it so there is one copy.
Summary: The skill spine and routing match the linked issue, with one copy of the rules and trigger coverage for fix-ci. No new findings survived the critic pass beyond what CodeRabbit already reported. The open CodeRabbit threads on the readiness card evidence and the step 8 watcher still block approval.

Findings

No new findings. These open threads still block this PR:

Location	Author	Issue
skills/done/references/readiness-card.md:112	coderabbitai	Define the publication evidence that fix-ci supplies to the post-publication run.
skills/fix-ci/SKILL.md:98	coderabbitai	Handle the no-checks exit from the watcher as pending with bounded retries, not red.
skills/fix-ci/SKILL.md:98	coderabbitai	Add a no-push branch to step 8 with evidence and done scope for a green rerun.

PR Review: #113

✅ approve | No findings
Senior engineer approval: ✅ Yes, The new hunks close the two prior threads with consistent publication evidence and bounded watch behavior, and no new defect survives the critic pass.

Goal: Add a fix-ci skill that runs one fixed procedure for red checks on an existing PR, and move the red-check rules out of global CLAUDE.md into it so there is one copy.
Summary: The skill spine and routing match the linked issue, with one copy of the rules and trigger coverage for fix-ci. The new commit answers both prior CodeRabbit threads: step 7 now records remote and PR read-backs as publication evidence, and step 8 treats a no-checks exit as pending with bounded retries plus a no-push green rerun branch. No new findings survived the critic pass.
