# roborev-respond
Record a comment on a roborev code review and close it.
## Usage
```
$roborev-respond <job_id> [message]
```
## IMPORTANT
This skill requires you to **execute bash commands** to record the comment and close the review. The task is not complete until you run both commands and see confirmation output.
These instructions are guidelines, not a rigid script. Use the conversation
context. Skip steps that are already satisfied. Defer to project-level
CLAUDE.md instructions when they conflict with these steps.
## Instructions
When the user invokes `$roborev-respond <job_id> [message]`:
### 1. Validate input
If no job_id is provided, inform the user that a job ID is required. Suggest `roborev status` or `roborev fix --open --list` to find job IDs.
### 2. Record the comment and close the review
**If a message is provided**, immediately execute:
```bash
roborev comment --job <job_id> "<message>" && roborev close <job_id>
```
If the message contains quotes or special characters, escape them properly in the bash command.
**If no message is provided**, ask the user what they'd like to say, then execute the commands with their comment.
### 3. Verify success
Both commands will output confirmation. If either fails, report the error to the user. Common causes:
- The daemon is not running
- The job ID does not exist
- The repo is not initialized (suggest `roborev init`)
- The review is already closed (not an error, but worth noting to the user)
The comment is recorded in roborev's database and the review is closed. View results with `roborev show`.
## Examples
**With message provided:**
User: `$roborev-respond 1019 Fixed all issues`
Agent action:
```bash
roborev comment --job 1019 "Fixed all issues" && roborev close 1019
```
Then confirm: "Comment recorded and review #1019 closed."
---
**Without message:**
User: `$roborev-respond 1019`
Agent: "What would you like to say about review #1019?"
User: "The null check was a false positive"
Agent action:
```bash
roborev comment --job 1019 "The null check was a false positive" && roborev close 1019
```
Then confirm: "Comment recorded and review #1019 closed."
