# Post linter and analyzer findings back into pull requests

This ASE skill uses reviewdog to turn linter and analyzer output into diff-aware pull request feedback. An agent can run existing checks, filter findings to the changed lines, and publish inline review comments or annotations instead of dumping raw logs into CI.

## Prerequisites

One or more linters or analyzers that emit machine-readable diagnostics, plus local git diff or CI pull request context

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- $ brew install reviewdog/tap/reviewdog
- $ brew upgrade reviewdog/tap/reviewdog
- $ go install github.com/reviewdog/reviewdog/cmd/reviewdog@latest
- $ npm install --save-dev eslint-formatter-rdjson

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- As described above, github-pr-check reporter with Option 2 depends on
- This reporter requires a valid GitHub API token to generate a diff, but will not
- Docker

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- shell
- # Specify installation directory ($(go env GOPATH)/bin/) and version.
- # In alpine linux (as it does not come with curl by default)
