Make Claude code review post PR comments - #13
Merged
Conversation
The review workflow ran but never posted anything to the PR: - The code-review plugin only posts to GitHub when invoked with --comment; without it, findings go to the workflow log only. - The job token had read-only pull-requests/issues permissions. - Comment-posting tools were not in the allowed tools list. Add --comment (which also posts a "No issues found" summary when the review comes back clean), bump permissions to write, and allowlist the tools the plugin uses.

Summary
The Claude Code Review workflow ran successfully on PRs but never posted any comments. Investigation of run
30175987844(PR #10) showed three compounding causes, all fixed here:--commentflag: thecode-reviewplugin explicitly stops before posting anything to GitHub unless invoked with--comment— findings only went to the workflow log.pull-requests: read/issues: read, sogh pr commentwould have failed anyway. Bumped towrite, matching the officialpr-review-comprehensive.ymlexample fromanthropics/claude-code-action.permission_denials_count: 8. Added--allowedToolsviaclaude_argscovering the tools the plugin uses (mcp__github_inline_comment__create_inline_comment,gh pr comment/diff/view/list, etc.).With
--comment, the plugin posts inline comments when it finds issues and a "No issues found" summary comment when the review comes back clean — so every reviewed PR gets visible feedback.Test plan
