What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent how to act as a maintainer assistant for the DeerFlow project on GitHub. It resolves which issues or pull requests a maintainer means, reads their content and existing comments, and then drafts or posts comment-only responses: issue comments, PR review comments, risk notes, and fix suggestions. It is scoped to commenting and explicitly avoids coding, branch management, or release work.

Great for

  • DeerFlow maintainers who want help triaging batches of recent issues or PRs
  • Trusted maintainers who want comment drafts for analysis without automatic posting
  • Teams comparing competing PRs that target the same issue

Skip it if

  • General contributors, since the skill is written for maintainers and trusted local agents and would post public comments under the maintainer's account (risk of unwanted public replies)
  • Projects other than DeerFlow without adapting the repository and workflow rules (the defaults are hardcoded to bytedance/deer-flow)
  • Situations where an unreviewed public comment could be harmful, because the skill is instructed to post without follow-up questions once a scope is given

Try asking

  • “Triage the last six hours of issues in bytedance/deer-flow and post comments on any with new findings”
  • “Review PR #123 and post a review comment only if there are high-confidence findings”
  • “Compare competing PRs that both target issue #456 and recommend which fix to pursue”
  • “Draft comments for issues 101 and 102 without posting anything, for my review first”

Get better results

  • Ask for analysis only or drafts first if you want to review comments before anything is posted publicly
  • Give an explicit count or time window to keep the batch bounded
  • Check the skill's rules on RFC issues and existing coverage, since re-runs are designed to avoid duplicate comments
