DevOps PR Review

A DevOps-flavored PR review on top of the generic /qv-pr-review flow. Adds a deterministic GitHub Actions security audit pass grounded in the repository's GitHub and CI guidance and the checklist below, so DevOps reviewers always see the same high-risk patterns regardless of the prose style of the diff.

The skill is a wrapper, not a fork — the bulk of the review (gitflow, CI, title/body, generic correctness, security) is done by /qv-pr-review. This skill layers DevOps-specific findings into the same pending review payload.

When to use this skill

Use when:

• User asks to review a PR whose changes are dominated by DevOps-owned paths (.github/workflows/, .github/actions/, .github/scripts/, scripts/, IaC under terraform/, ansible/, k8s/, Dockerfile*, .github/CODEOWNERS, .github/dependabot.yml)
• User invokes /qv-devops-pr-review with a PR URL
• Triggered as a follow-up from /qv-devops-pr-status after the user picks a PR

If the PR's touched paths are dominated by a different pod, fall back to /qv-pr-review. The generic flow already auto-loads the relevant pod's rules.

Inputs

• Required: PR URL (https://github.com/tetherto/qvac/pull/<num>)
• Optional: user-provided focus notes

If the URL is missing, ask for it. Nothing else to ask up-front.

Safety rules

Inherits all safety rules from /qv-pr-review verbatim:

• Read-only with respect to the user's local working tree. No git switch, git checkout, git reset, git restore, git stash, git pull, git merge, git rebase, git cherry-pick, git clean, gh pr checkout, or any write inside the user's working tree.
• All file inspection happens in the worktree cache at ~/.cache/qvac-pr-review/pr-<num>/ (managed by worktree-prepare.mjs) or via gh api .../contents/<path>?ref=<sha> to /tmp/.

Efficiency rules

Inherits the ~5–8 shell-call budget from /qv-pr-review. The DevOps audit pass adds at most 3 additional reads (Read/Grep/Glob, not shell) per touched workflow/action file. Cache: reuse /tmp/pr-<num>.json, /tmp/pr-<num>.patch, and the worktree path from the underlying /qv-pr-review run.

Workflow

1. Run the generic /qv-pr-review flow up to step 7a (overview)

Read .agents/skills/qv-pr-review/SKILL.md and follow steps 0a → 7a inclusive:

• 0a. Prepare worktree (worktree-prepare.mjs)
• 1. Parse PR URL
• 2. Fetch PR metadata
• 3. Gitflow validation
• 4. Read the applicable scoped instructions. DevOps paths use .github/AGENTS.md and its linked source documents. The PR-format spec lives in the devops-pr-create skill and is invoked explicitly.
• 5. Validate PR title + body against the format spec inlined below (DevOps allowed prefixes: infra/feat/fix/chore/doc/test; tags: [bc]/[notask]/[skiplog]; title regex: ^([A-Z]+-\d+ )?(infra|feat|fix|chore|doc|test)(\[(bc|notask|skiplog)\])?: \S.+$)
• 6. Review dimensions
• 7a. Print risk overview in chat — but do not yet run step 7b (the inline-comment selection prompt). The DevOps audit pass in step 2 below contributes additional findings.

2. Run the DevOps GitHub Actions security audit

For every .github/workflows/*.yml and .github/actions/**/action.yml in the patch, perform the checks below using Read/Grep/Glob against the worktree path. Each check that fires becomes a finding with a tier per the table.

For each finding, capture: file, line, the offending excerpt (3-8 lines), the tier, and a one-line "why" pulled from the rule. Write findings into the same chat overview structure that /qv-pr-review step 7a uses, under a new sub-heading ### GHA security audit.

3. Re-print the consolidated chat overview

After both passes, re-print the full overview (gitflow / CI / generic-high / generic-medium / GHA-audit / lows / verified) so the user sees one ranked list. Findings retain the deep-link + excerpt rules from /qv-pr-review step 7a.

4. Run /qv-pr-review steps 7b → 12

Continue with the generic flow:

• 7b. Selection prompt — the multi-select includes BOTH generic findings and GHA-audit findings. Defaults: every High pre-selected (including all GHA-audit Highs); Medium pre-selected; Low opt-in.
• 8. Assemble inline comments from the user-confirmed set
• 9. Pre-flight check
• 10. Show the gh api ... pulls/<num>/reviews command, wait for confirmation
• 11. Post on confirmation
• 12. Output the link to the pending review

5. Audit summary in chat (after posting)

After the pending review URL is printed, append a single-line audit summary:

GHA audit: <H high> / <M medium> / <L low> findings on N workflow files. <K> filed inline; <skipped> skipped per user.

This makes audit coverage observable without reading the inline payload.

Inline comment style for GHA-audit findings

Inherit the comment style from /qv-pr-review. Add one DevOps-specific convention: every GHA-audit finding's body MUST cite the rule it traces back to, e.g.:

Untrusted input piped directly into shell. Per `.github/AGENTS.md`,
this MUST go through an `env:` block — `${{ github.event.pull_request.title }}` lands in the rendered shell verbatim and is exploitable.

```yaml
env:
  PR_TITLE: ${{ github.event.pull_request.title }}
run: |
  echo "$PR_TITLE"

The cite makes the audit finding auditable: the reviewer can verify the rule still says what the comment claims.

## Quality Checklist

Before posting the pending review, verify:

- [ ] Underlying `/qv-pr-review` workflow ran through step 7a successfully (worktree prepared, gitflow checked, CI checked, scoped instructions loaded, title/body validated)
- [ ] GHA-audit pass ran on every changed `.github/workflows/*.yml` and `.github/actions/**/action.yml`
- [ ] Each GHA-audit finding has: file path, post-change line, 3-8 line excerpt at PR head SHA, deep link, tier, and source citation
- [ ] User-confirmed selection from step 7b matches the assembled payload exactly (count + IDs)
- [ ] Audit summary line is printed after step 12
