View Pull Request

View details of a pull request including title, description, status, author, and branches.

When to Use

  • User asks "what's this PR about?" or "show me the PR"
  • User wants context before code review
  • User mentions a PR number or asks about current branch's PR
  • User needs to understand the scope of changes before diving in

How to Execute

Run:

aide pr view [--pr <id|url>]
  • Without --pr: auto-detects from current branch
  • With --pr 123: views specific PR by ID
  • With --pr <url>: views PR from Azure DevOps URL

Output Includes

  1. PR number and title
  2. Status (active, completed, abandoned) and draft state
  3. Author and creation date
  4. Source and target branches
  5. Repository and project
  6. Description (if present)

Best Practices

  • Always check PR status before starting review
  • Note draft state - drafts may have incomplete changes
  • Check target branch to understand merge destination
  • Look for linked tickets in the description

Next Steps
