Iterate on a GitHub pull request — drive it through CI, code review, and QA until it is merge-ready. Poll verification layers with `gh` CLI, diagnose and fix CI failures, address review feedback, retry flaky checks, push fixes, and repeat. The agent is the orchestration loop.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# /iterate — Drive a PR to Merge-Ready Iterate on a pull request until it passes all verification layers. You push, poll, fix, and push again — the loop only ends when the PR is green or a blocker requires human help. No scripts — you are the orchestration loop. Uses only standard `gh` CLI commands that work on any GitHub repo. Requires: `gh` CLI authenticated with repo access, a PR branch. Windows PowerShell equivalents for Bash-only assignment, redirection, and quoting patterns in this skill are in `references/windows.md`. ## Discover what the repo has Not every repo has all three verification layers. Before entering the loop, check which ones exist. Only poll layers that are actually set up. ```bash gh workflow list --json name --jq '.[].name' ``` - **CI checks** — almost every repo has these. If `gh pr checks` returns results, CI is present. - **PR review bot** — look for a workflow named like "PR Review" or "pr-review" in the output above, or check for `.github/workflows/pr-review*.yml` in the repo. If it's not there, the repo doesn't have automated PR review. Skip step 3 entirely. …

How to install
mdr add openhands/extensions/iterate@sha256:58249391292da7a9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260713.de28dbb, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
