Github Pr Review Operation

Get the PR diff with side-aware line numbers.

gh pr diff NUMBER --repo OWNER/REPO | awk '
/^@@/ {
  match($0, /-([0-9]+)/, old); match($0, /\+([0-9]+)/, new);
  old_line = old[1]; new_line = new[1];
  print $0; next
}
/^-/ { printf "L%-4d     | %s\n", old_line++, $0; next }
/^\+/ { printf "     R%-4d| %s\n", new_line++, $0; next }
/^ / { printf "L%-4d R%-4d| %s\n", old_line++, new_line++, $0; next }
{ print }'

• L<num>: Base side line number (use side=LEFT for comments).
• R<num>: Head side line number (use side=RIGHT for comments).

3. Fetch Comments

Always use --paginate and --method GET with -f sort=created -f direction=desc for the latest comments.

Global PR Comments:

gh api --method GET repos/OWNER/REPO/issues/NUMBER/comments --paginate -f sort=created -f direction=desc --jq '.[] | {id, user: .user.login, created_at, body}'

Inline Review Comments:

gh api --method GET repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/NUMBER/comments --paginate -f sort=created -f direction=desc --jq '.[] | {id, user: .user.login, path, line, created_at, body, in_reply_to_id}'

4. General Comment

gh pr comment NUMBER --repo OWNER/REPO --body "Your comment here"

5. Inline Review Comment

Get head commit SHA first: gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/NUMBER --jq '.head.sha'

gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/NUMBER/comments \
  --method POST \
  -f body="Comment text" \
  -f commit_id="COMMIT_SHA" \
  -f path="file/path.ts" \
  -F line=15 \
  -f side=RIGHT

Note: Use -F for numeric params like line and start_line.

6. Reply to Comment

gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/pulls/NUMBER/comments/COMMENT_ID/replies --method POST -f body="Reply text"
