I built a tool to assist AI agents to know when a PR is good to go

I've been using Claude Code heavily, and kept hitting the same issue: the agent would push changes, respond to reviews, wait for CI... but never really know when it was done. It would poll CI in loops. Miss actionable comments buried among 15 CodeRabbit suggestions. Or declare victory while threads were still unresolved. The core problem: no deterministic way for an agent to know a PR is ready to merge. So I built gtg (Good To Go). One command, one answer: $ gtg 123 OK PR #123: READY CI: success (5/5 passed) Threads: 3/3 resolved It aggregates CI status, classifies review comments…

In plain words

gtg (Good To Go) is a command-line tool that helps AI agents determine when a pull request is ready to merge. It aggregates CI status, classifies review comments to distinguish actionable feedback from noise, and tracks thread resolution. The tool returns results in JSON for programmatic use or human-readable text format. It understands comment severity markers from tools like CodeRabbit and recognizes blocking or approval language patterns. Built for developers using AI coding assistants, it solves the problem of agents getting stuck in polling loops or missing critical feedback among numerous automated suggestions.

Deterministic PR readiness detection for AI coding agents

The missing piece in AI-assisted development: knowing when you’re actually done. AI coding agents are transforming software development. They can write code, fix bugs, respond to review comments, and create pull requests. But they all share one fundamental problem: Think about it. When you ask an AI agent to “fix the CI and address the review comments,” how does it know when it’s finished? Combines all GitHub check runs and commit statuses into a single pass/fail/pending state. Handles the complexity of multiple CI systems, required vs optional checks, and in-progress runs. Not all review comments are created equal. Good To Go classifies each comment as: Distinguishes between truly…from dsifry.github.io

    Hi HN, I'm the author of git-lrc, would appreciate some feedback from the community Last year my team started using AI coding tools more heavily, and we found ourselves generating tons of code, but spending less time looking at the stuff that's been generated. We felt like we were losing a bit of grip/understanding of what we were building. Regressions occasionally slipped through. Sometimes changes made it all the way to production only to be reverted later. We tried several AI code review tools, but most operate at PR time. That felt too late. I wanted review to happen while the…

    hi guys. been working on something i think is fundamentally missing in today's workflow with ai agents. vcs. i find myself struggling with questions that agents can't answer like "why did you do it?", "when did u delete this folder? why?", etc. or trying to /rewind (after a /compact...) or basically `bisect` to find when and why something was done by the agent in the current / previous session. just like git did for code, i think we are the same core capabilities with ai agents so... i developed an open source solution for that (currently supporting claude code) would love to…

    Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
