# Review open pull requests against repository contribution guidelines

This entry turns GitHub Next's Contribution Check workflow into a maintainer-facing agent routine. The agent batches open pull requests, compares them to CONTRIBUTING.md, labels likely-ready submissions, comments on gaps, and produces a report issue so humans can spend review time where it matters.

## Prerequisites

GitHub CLI, the gh-aw extension, and a repository with CONTRIBUTING.md

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- Make software maintenance enjoyable! From basic issue triage to Repo Assist - a powerful triage multi-task backlog burner, issue labeller, bug fixer and general repository assistant. Other workflows help gate your rep...

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- [💰 Cost Tracker](docs/cost-tracker.md) - Post per-run agent spend summaries on pull requests using token-usage.jsonl from gh-aw's firewall
- [📝 Markdown Linter](docs/markdown-linter.md) - Run Markdown quality checks on all documentation files and get a prioritized issue report of violations
- **[Reporting](workflows/shared/reporting.md)** - Guidelines for reporting workflow run information with clickable run ID links
