Symptom

The Expert Code Review (command) workflow has been failing on every /review slash command. Example: https://github.com/microsoft/testfx/actions/runs/25860314352/job/75988442410

The agent job aborts at the Checkout PR branch step with:

[command]/usr/bin/git fetch origin +refs/pull/8189/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr-head --depth=4
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
##[error]ERR_API: Failed to checkout PR branch: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128

Root cause

review.agent.md (and review-after-autofix.agent.md) declare checkout: false in their frontmatter. That tells gh-aw to skip the default actions/checkout it would normally insert at the top of the agent job.

However, because the workflow is triggered by a PR/comment event, the compiler still inserts a Checkout PR branch step (which runs git fetch against refs/pull/N/head). Without the prior actions/checkout, the workspace has no .git directory and the fetch fails immediately.

For comparison, review-on-open.agent.lock.yml ΓÇö which does not set checkout: false ΓÇö gets a Checkout repository step right before Checkout PR branch, and works fine.

Fix

  • Remove checkout: false from .github/workflows/review.agent.md.
  • Remove checkout: false from .github/workflows/review-after-autofix.agent.md (same setup ΓÇö would also fail on its first synchronize event).
  • Recompile both lock files with gh aw compile (v0.72.1).

The compiled lock files now insert the standard Checkout repository step before Checkout PR branch, mirroring review-on-open.agent.lock.yml.

The agent job in review.agent.lock.yml runs `Checkout PR branch`, which executes `git fetch origin +refs/pull/N/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr-head` in the workspace. With `checkout: false` set, gh-aw skips the prerequisite `actions/checkout` step in the agent job, so the fetch fails with `fatal: not a git repository` and the workflow aborts (e.g. https://github.com/microsoft/testfx/actions/runs/25860314352).
Drop `checkout: false` from `review.agent.md` and the closely related `review-after-autofix.agent.md`, then `gh aw compile` to regenerate the lock files. The compiler now emits the standard `Checkout repository` step ahead of `Checkout PR branch`, matching the pattern in the working `review-on-open.agent.lock.yml`.

Pull request overview

Fixes the Expert Code Review (command) and Re-review After Autofix agentic workflows failing during the compiler-inserted “Checkout PR branch” step by ensuring the repo is checked out first (so a .git directory exists).

Changes:

  • Removed checkout: false from the two workflow source markdown files so gh-aw will include the default repository checkout step.
  • Regenerated both compiled .lock.yml workflow files so they now include Checkout repository before Checkout PR branch.
  • Updated the compiled review.agent.lock.yml prompt-rendering logic to include PR context gating variables consistent with other gh-aw compiled workflows.

Symptom
The Expert Code Review (command) workflow has been failing on every /review slash command. Example: https://github.com/microsoft/testfx/actions/runs/25860314352/job/75988442410
The agent job aborts at the Checkout PR branch step with:
[command]/usr/bin/git fetch origin +refs/pull/8189/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr-head --depth=4
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
##[error]ERR_API: Failed to checkout PR branch: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128

Root cause
review.agent.md (and review-after-autofix.agent.md) declare checkout: false in their frontmatter. That tells gh-aw to skip the default actions/checkout it would normally insert at the top of the agent job.
However, because the workflow is triggered by a PR/comment event, the compiler still inserts a Checkout PR branch step (which runs git fetch against refs/pull/N/head). Without the prior actions/checkout, the workspace has no .git directory and the fetch fails immediately.
For comparison, review-on-open.agent.lock.yml ΓÇö which does not set checkout: false ΓÇö gets a Checkout repository step right before Checkout PR branch, and works fine.
Fix
  • Remove checkout: false from .github/workflows/review.agent.md.
  • Remove checkout: false from .github/workflows/review-after-autofix.agent.md (same setup ΓÇö would also fail on its first synchronize event).
  • Recompile both lock files with gh aw compile (v0.72.1).
The compiled lock files now insert the standard Checkout repository step before Checkout PR branch, mirroring review-on-open.agent.lock.yml.
Amaury Levé
Fix Expert Code Review (command) failing on Checkout PR branch
7d59ed9
The agent job in review.agent.lock.yml runs `Checkout PR branch`, which executes `git fetch origin +refs/pull/N/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr-head` in the workspace. With `checkout: false` set, gh-aw skips the prerequisite `actions/checkout` step in the agent job, so the fetch fails with `fatal: not a git repository` and the workflow aborts (e.g. https://github.com/microsoft/testfx/actions/runs/25860314352).
Drop `checkout: false` from `review.agent.md` and the closely related `review-after-autofix.agent.md`, then `gh aw compile` to regenerate the lock files. The compiler now emits the standard `Checkout repository` step ahead of `Checkout PR branch`, matching the pattern in the working `review-on-open.agent.lock.yml`.

Pull request overview
Fixes the Expert Code Review (command) and Re-review After Autofix agentic workflows failing during the compiler-inserted “Checkout PR branch” step by ensuring the repo is checked out first (so a .git directory exists).
Changes:
  • Removed checkout: false from the two workflow source markdown files so gh-aw will include the default repository checkout step.
  • Regenerated both compiled .lock.yml workflow files so they now include Checkout repository before Checkout PR branch.
  • Updated the compiled review.agent.lock.yml prompt-rendering logic to include PR context gating variables consistent with other gh-aw compiled workflows.
