CLI/API Reference

gh CLI (GitHub)

Agent Teams support

If CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1 is set, use Agent Teams for fixer agents (Phase 3). This enables:

• Steering fixers mid-flight if priorities change (e.g., a critical PR should be merged first)
• Fixers can report blockers and you can redirect them without waiting for completion
• Shared context: if fixer-A discovers a breaking change that affects fixer-B's PR, you can notify B

Team setup (only when flag is enabled, Phase 3):

TeamCreate("merge-fixers")
Agent(team_name="merge-fixers", name="fixer-[repo]", ...)

Use SendMessage(to="fixer-my-api", content="PR #2958 was just merged — rebase your branch") to coordinate.

If the flag is NOT set, fall back to standard parallel subagents with isolation: "worktree".

Pre-gathered PR data

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-merge-scan 2>/dev/null || echo '{"prs":[],"error":"merge-scan failed"}'

Your task

You are the merge orchestrator. Your job is to get every open PR across the owner's repos merged — fixing whatever blocks them first.

Parse arguments

From $ARGUMENTS:

• --main → after all PRs merge to dev, also sync dev↔main for repos that have both branches
• --repo <slug> → scope to one repo only (e.g., --repo Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/my-api)
• --dry-run → report what would happen, don't dispatch agents or merge anything
• --force → skip the confirmation prompt before merging
• (empty) → process all repos, merge to dev only

Phase 1 — Classify the PR queue

Parse the pre-gathered JSON. For each PR, it's already classified as one of:

Print the queue:

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS ► MERGE — PR Queue
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

| Repo | PR | Title | Status | Action |
|------|----|-------|--------|--------|
| my-api | #2958 | fix(migration) | ready | merge |
| my-app | #4456 | feat(apple-04) | needs-ci-fix | dispatch fixer |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |

Ready: N  |  Fix needed: N  |  Blocked: N  |  Draft: N
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────

If --dry-run, stop here. Print the queue and exit.

Phase 2 — Confirm and merge ready PRs

Unless --force was passed, use AskUserQuestion to confirm before merging:

Ready to merge N PRs:
  [repo]#[number] — [title] → [base]
  [repo]#[number] — [title] → [base]

  [Merge all N now]  [Let me pick which ones]  [Dry run — don't merge]

If user picks "Let me pick", show each PR with [Merge] / [Skip] options via AskUserQuestion.

For each confirmed PR:

1. Verify CI is still green: gh pr checks <number> --repo <repo>
2. If green: gh pr merge <number> --repo <repo> --squash --admin
3. Report: ✓ Merged <repo>#<number> to <base>

Phase 3 — Dispatch fixers for PRs that need work

For PRs classified as needs-rebase, needs-ci-fix, or needs-review-response:

Dispatch subagents in parallel (max 5 concurrent, one repo per agent):

Each fixer agent gets a worktree and this brief:

Task: Fix PR #<number> in <repo> (<classification>)
Repo path: <path from registry>
Branch: <headRefName>

<classification-specific instructions>

For needs-rebase:
  1. Create worktree: `git worktree add /tmp/ops-rebase-<pr-number> <headRefName>`
  2. cd into worktree: `cd /tmp/ops-rebase-<pr-number>`
  3. Fetch latest: `git fetch origin`
  4. Attempt rebase: `git rebase origin/<baseBranchRef> 2>&1`
  5. If rebase SUCCEEDS (exit 0):
     - Push force-with-lease: `git push --force-with-lease origin <headRefName>`
     - Clean up worktree: `git worktree remove /tmp/ops-rebase-<pr-number> --force`
     - Report: `✓ Rebased <repo>#<number> — conflict resolved`
  6. If rebase FAILS (exit non-zero):
     - Capture the conflicting files: `git diff --name-only --diff-filter=U`
     - Show the diff: `git diff HEAD`
     - Abort the rebase: `git rebase --abort`
     - Clean up worktree: `git worktree remove /tmp/ops-rebase-<pr-number> --force`
     - Surface to orchestrator with the diff output and a structured conflict report:
       ```json
       {
         "pr": <number>,
         "repo": "<repo>",
         "status": "conflict",
         "conflicting_files": ["<file1>", "<file2>"],
         "diff_summary": "<first 500 chars of diff>"
       }
       ```

For needs-ci-fix:
  1. Get failed check logs: `gh run view <id> --repo <repo> --log-failed | tail -80`
  2. Diagnose the failure
  3. Fix the code in a worktree
  4. Commit + push --no-verify
  5. Wait for CI to re-run (or report what was fixed)

For needs-review-response:
  1. Read review comments: `gh api repos/<repo>/pulls/<number>/comments --jq '.[].body'`
  2. Address each comment in code
  3. Reply to each comment via gh api
  4. Push fixes
  5. Re-request review if needed

After fixing:
  - Report back: what was wrong, what was fixed, is CI green now?
  - Do NOT auto-merge after fixing. Report the fix and let Phase 4 handle confirmation.

Use model: "sonnet" for all fixer agents.

Phase 4 — Resolve surfaced conflicts

For each PR returned with status: "conflict" from a fixer agent:

1. Display the conflict summary:

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS ► MERGE — Conflict in <repo>#<number>
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 Branch: <headRefName> → <baseBranchRef>
 Conflicting files:
   - <file1>
   - <file2>

<diff_summary>
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────

1. Use AskUserQuestion (max 4 options — CLAUDE.md Rule 1):

[Accept incoming (theirs)]  [Keep current branch (ours)]  [Open manual resolution]  [Skip this PR]

1. Based on response:
   • Accept incoming (theirs): Create worktree, rebase with git checkout --theirs . on each conflicting file, git add ., git rebase --continue, push force-with-lease
   • Keep current branch (ours): Create worktree, rebase with git checkout --ours . on each conflicting file, git add ., git rebase --continue, push force-with-lease
   • Open manual resolution: Print step-by-step instructions for the operator to resolve manually, then check in with git push confirmation before continuing the merge pipeline
   • Skip this PR: Note as unresolved-conflict, include in final report

Phase 5 — Collect results and confirm merges

As fixers complete:

1. Verify the PR is now green: gh pr checks <number> --repo <repo>
2. If green, use AskUserQuestion to confirm (unless --force):

   Fixer resolved [repo]#[number] — [what was fixed]. CI is now green.
     [Merge now]  [Skip — I'll review manually]
   

3. If still red: report what's still broken, do not merge

Phase 6 — --main sync (only if flag is set)

For each repo that has separate dev and main branches:

1. Check if dev is ahead of main: git -C <path> log main..dev --oneline | head -5
2. If ahead, show the commits and use AskUserQuestion:

   [repo]: dev is N commits ahead of main:
     [commit list]
   
     [Create sync PR and merge]  [Create PR only — I'll review]  [Skip this repo]
   

3. If confirmed: create sync PR: gh pr create --repo <repo> --base main --head dev --title "chore: sync dev → main"
4. Wait for CI: gh pr checks <sync-pr-number> --repo <repo> --watch (background, max 10 min)
5. If CI green: gh pr merge <sync-pr-number> --repo <repo> --merge --admin (merge commit, not squash)
6. Pull main back into dev: git -C <path> fetch origin && git -C <path> checkout dev && git -C <path> merge origin/main --no-edit

Phase 7 — Final report

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS ► MERGE COMPLETE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

| Repo | PR | Result |
|------|----|--------|
| my-api | #2958 | ✓ merged to dev |
| my-app | #4456 | ✓ fixed CI + merged |
| mise | #10 | ✗ 3 critical bugs — skipped |

Merged: N PRs across M repos
Skipped: N (blocked/draft)
Failed: N (still need manual attention)

Main sync: N repos synced (dev → main → dev)
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Safety Rails (NEVER violate)

• NEVER force-push to main/master
• NEVER merge with red CI — fix root cause first
• NEVER bypass review on PRs touching auth, payments, PII, or secrets — these require security-reviewer subagent audit before merge
• NEVER run git reset --hard on shared branches
• ALWAYS use worktrees for fixes (multiple agents may be active)
• ALWAYS use --admin only for squash merges to dev (not main, unless --main flag)
• Max 10 PRs per invocation to avoid GitHub API throttling
• If a PR has > 50 files changed, flag it for manual review instead of auto-merging

Native tool usage

Monitor — live CI watching

When waiting for CI after a fixer pushes (Phase 3-4), use Monitor to stream the GitHub Actions run output instead of polling:

Monitor(command: "gh run watch <run-id> --repo <repo>")

This avoids sleep loops and gives real-time feedback on CI progress.

Tasks — progress tracking

Create a TaskCreate for the overall merge pipeline and individual tasks per PR. Update with TaskUpdate as each PR is fixed/merged/skipped. This gives the user a live checklist view.

WebSearch — CI failure context

When a fixer agent encounters an obscure CI failure, use WebSearch to find known issues (e.g., npm registry outages, GitHub Actions incidents, flaky test patterns).
