CodeRabbit Autofix
Fetch CodeRabbit review comments for your current branch's PR and fix them interactively or in batch.
Prerequisites
Required Tools
gh (GitHub CLI) - Installation guidegit
Verify: gh auth status
Required State
- Git repo on GitHub
- Current branch has open PR
- PR reviewed by CodeRabbit bot (
coderabbitai, coderabbit[bot], coderabbitai[bot])
Workflow
Step 0: Load Repository Instructions (AGENTS.md)
Before any autofix actions, search for AGENTS.md in the current repository and load applicable instructions.
- If found, follow its build/lint/test/commit guidance throughout the run.
- If not found, continue with default workflow.
Step 1: Check Code Push Status
Check: git status + check for unpushed commits
If uncommitted changes:
- Warn: "⚠️ Uncommitted changes won't be in CodeRabbit review"
- Ask: "Commit and push first?" → If yes: wait for user action, then continue
If unpushed commits:
- Warn: "⚠️ N unpushed commits. CodeRabbit hasn't reviewed them"
- Ask: "Push now?" → If yes:
git push, inform "CodeRabbit will review in ~5 min", EXIT skill
Otherwise: Proceed to Step 2
Step 2: Find Open PR
gh pr list --head $(git branch --show-current) --state open --json number,title
If no PR: Ask "Create PR?" → If yes: create PR (see github.md § 5), inform "Run skill again in ~5 min", EXIT
Step 3: Fetch Unresolved CodeRabbit Threads
Fetch PR review threads (see github.md § 2):
- Threads:
gh api graphql ... pullRequest.reviewThreads ... (see github.md § 2)
Filter to:
- unresolved threads only (
isResolved == false)
- threads started by CodeRabbit bot (
coderabbitai, coderabbit[bot], coderabbitai[bot])
If review in progress: Check for "Come back again in a few minutes" message → Inform "⏳ Review in progress, try again in a few minutes", EXIT
If no unresolved CodeRabbit threads: Inform "No unresolved CodeRabbit review threads found", EXIT
For each selected thread:
- Extract issue metadata from root comment
Step 4: Parse and Display Issues
Extract from each comment:
- Header:
_([^_]+)_ \| _([^_]+)_ → Issue type | Severity
- Description: Main body text
- Agent prompt: Content in
<details><summary>🤖 Prompt for AI Agents</summary> (this is the fix instruction)
- If missing, use description as fallback
- Location: File path and line numbers
Map severity:
- 🔴 Critical/High → CRITICAL (action required)
- 🟠 Medium → HIGH (review recommended)
- 🟡 Minor/Low → MEDIUM (review recommended)
- 🟢 Info/Suggestion → LOW (optional)
- 🔒 Security → Treat as high priority
Display in CodeRabbit's original order (already severity-ordered):
CodeRabbit Issues for PR #123: [PR Title]
| # | Severity | Issue Title | Location & Details | Type | Action |
|---|----------|-------------|-------------------|------|--------|
| 1 | 🔴 CRITICAL | Insecure authentication check | src/auth/service.py:42<br>Authorization logic inverted | 🐛 Bug 🔒 Security | Fix |
| 2 | 🟠 HIGH | Database query not awaited | src/db/repository.py:89<br>Async call missing await | 🐛 Bug | Fix |
Step 5: Ask User for Fix Preference
Use AskUserQuestion:
- 🔍 "Review each issue" - Manual review and approval (recommended)
- ⚡ "Auto-fix all" - Apply all "Fix" issues without approval
- ❌ "Cancel" - Exit
Route based on choice:
- Review → Step 5
- Auto-fix → Step 6
- Cancel → EXIT
Step 6: Manual Review Mode
For each "Fix" issue (CRITICAL first):
- Read relevant files
- Execute CodeRabbit's agent prompt as direct instruction (from "🤖 Prompt for AI Agents" section)
- Calculate proposed fix (DO NOT apply yet)
- Show fix and ask approval in ONE step:
- Issue title + location
- CodeRabbit's agent prompt (so user can verify)
- Current code
- Proposed diff
- AskUserQuestion: ✅ Apply fix | ⏭️ Defer | 🔧 Modify
If "Apply fix":
- Apply with Edit tool
- Track changed files for a single consolidated commit after all fixes
- Confirm: "✅ Fix applied and commented"
If "Defer":
- Ask for reason (AskUserQuestion)
- Move to next
If "Modify":
- Inform user can make changes manually
- Move to next
Step 7: Auto-Fix Mode
For each "Fix" issue (CRITICAL first):
- Read relevant files
- Execute CodeRabbit's agent prompt as direct instruction
- Apply fix with Edit tool
- Track changed files for one consolidated commit
- Report:
✅ Fixed: [Issue Title] at [Location] Agent prompt: [prompt used]
After all fixes, display summary of fixed/skipped issues.
Step 8: Create Single Consolidated Commit
If any fixes were applied:
git add <all-changed-files>
git commit -m "fix: apply CodeRabbit auto-fixes"
Use one commit for all applied fixes in this run.
Step 9: Prompt Build/Lint Before Push
If a consolidated commit was created:
- Prompt user interactively to run validation before push (recommended, not required).
- Remind the user of the
AGENTS.md instructions already loaded in Step 0 (if present).
- If user agrees, run the requested checks and report results.
Step 10: Push Changes
If a consolidated commit was created:
- Ask: "Push changes?" → If yes:
git push
If all deferred (no commit): Skip this step.
Step 11: Post Summary
REQUIRED after all issues reviewed:
gh pr comment <pr-number> --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Fixes Applied Successfully
Fixed <file-count> file(s) based on <issue-count> unresolved review comment(s).
**Files modified:**
- `path/to/file-a.ts`
- `path/to/file-b.ts`
**Commit:** `<commit-sha>`
The latest autofix changes are on the `<branch-name>` branch.

Optionally react to CodeRabbit's main comment with 👍.
Key Notes
- Follow agent prompts literally - The "🤖 Prompt for AI Agents" section IS the fix specification
- One approval per fix - Show context + diff + AskUserQuestion in single message (manual mode)
- Preserve issue titles - Use CodeRabbit's exact titles, don't paraphrase
- Preserve ordering - Display issues in CodeRabbit's original order
- Do not post per-issue replies - Keep the workflow summary-comment only
