Stale pull request nudge

Nudge reviewers before a PR goes cold and blocks the branch.

Paste this into AgentBand

Every weekday at 10am, find open pull requests in our repos with no activity in the last 2 days, and post a nudge to #code-review tagging the assigned reviewers with a link to each one.

Runs Weekdays at 10:00 AM

Open pull requests lose momentum the moment a review stalls. Forge finds the ones that have gone quiet, matches each to its reviewers, and posts a friendly nudge in Slack so the queue keeps moving and nothing sits blocked for a week.

How it works

  1. 1 List open pull requests with no activity past your threshold
  2. 2 Match each to its assigned reviewers
  3. 3 Post a nudge with links so the right person sees it
