CI Status Surfacing on Draft PRs
Every Watari-drafted PR now shows live CI status — the same green/red signal GitHub puts on a PR, mirrored into the Watari dashboard and the Slack notification. No new CI integration: we read the same check_run and status events branch protection already trusts.
- Subscribed to
check_run,check_suite, andstatuswebhook events — covers GitHub Actions, Vercel, Cypress Cloud, and legacy CIs like Travis / CircleCI classic - PR tab shows CI passing, CI running…, or CI failing — N of M checks failed with a per-check breakdown popover
- Slack PR-created notification gets a live CI line that auto-updates via
chat.update— one anchor message, no channel flooding - First-time CI failure fires a separate
[ATTENTION]Slack reply with the assigned reviewers @mentioned, so a muted thread still pages the right humans - Stale-protection: writes are gated on the PR’s current head SHA so force-pushes don’t leave old verdicts behind
v1.2May 2026
Reviewer-Comment Iteration Loop
The first PR is rarely the right PR. Leave a review comment on the Watari-drafted PR — “this fixes the symptom but the bug is in the cache invalidation” — and we propose the follow-up commit on the same branch within minutes. Every iteration learns from the last.
- Watari listens for
pull_request_reviewandissue_commentevents on every Watari-drafted PR - A classifier reads every comment as actionable / question / unrelated / praise — only actionable feedback triggers a regeneration
- An extended-thinking model regenerates the fix against the current branch HEAD and pushes a follow-up commit on the same branch — no force push, no history rewrites
- Per-org cap (default 5 iterations, max 10) with Slack soft-cap notification at iteration 3 if convergence is failing
- Iteration history timeline in the PR tab — each row links to the triggering comment and the resulting commit SHA
- Toggle and cap configurable from Settings → AI; defaults to ON to match the AI-PR-tooling industry default
