fix(poteto-mode): use -F for @file expansion in babysit replies - #2
Merged
Conversation
gh api expands @file only under -F. The -f form posts the literal filename as the comment body, which happened live on a PR reply. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01KybsFC28cLtu6pCdwdwBBw

Upstream's babysit step 8 now posts review replies with gh api --input <payload.json>, which supersedes the -F @file fix from PR #2. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01X8ENwh7GfaGvuwDRykTGxx

Why
Babysit step 8 tells the agent to post review replies with
-f body=@file. That flag does not expand@file.gh apireads a file for a field only under-F, so the instruction posts the literal filename as the comment body. This happened live on cloudflare/cloudflare-docs#33091 and the comment had to be patched afterward.Scope
One line in
skills/poteto-mode/playbooks/babysit.md. The step 8 posting instruction now names-F body=@fileand states why-fis wrong.Blast Radius
Every babysit run that replies to a review thread from a file. Without the fix, each such reply posts a filename instead of the message.
Verification
Reproduced both behaviors against the GitHub API:
-f body=@fileposted the literal filename on cloudflare-docs#33091, and the-Fform posted the file contents when patching that same comment.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
