PR Context

This skill retrieves the current pull request's details to provide context about the PR state.

When to Use

• When you need to check CI/build status
• When the user asks about "the PR", "pull request", or "checks"
• When you need to see review comments or requested changes
• When checking if PR is ready to merge
• When the user asks "what's the PR status?" or "did CI pass?"
