# Keep a pull-request review queue actionable

Illustrative planning brief; no automatic product import.

Illustrative case: three changes are open: one lacks a reviewer, one has unresolved feedback and one is approved but depends on another change.

## Decision

Assign the next responsible role for each change; do not equate review approval with a deployment decision.

## Owned work

- Request a bounded review
  - Owner role: Author
  - Acceptance evidence: The request states the change scope, validation evidence and the reviewer needed.
- Resolve requested changes
  - Owner role: Author and reviewer
  - Acceptance evidence: The author addresses feedback and identifies what requires another review.
- Check the merge dependency
  - Owner role: Maintainer
  - Acceptance evidence: The queue states the prerequisite change and the merge decision owner.

## Workflow

1. Record a reference and the next decision for each change without copying sensitive code.
2. Separate waiting for review from implementing feedback and waiting on dependencies.
3. Revisit stale entries with their owners and remove changes that are no longer relevant.

## Judgment

This is a manual coordination guide. No automatic GitHub synchronization or merging is established here.


## Filled illustrative decision

The sample queue gives change A a reviewer, returns change B to its author for one unresolved acceptance gap, and holds approved change C behind A's dependency. The coordinator records the next action for each. Review approval of C does not authorize deployment ahead of its required input.


## Workflow questions

### Should the queue mirror the code host?

It should capture the delivery decision that needs coordination. Keep the code host as the source for actual review and merge state.

### Can an approved change still be blocked?

Yes. A dependency, release constraint or unresolved integration condition can remain after review approval.

## Product connection

Prepare the reviewer’s next decision and blocking evidence before reporting review-related task status in TeamBoostAI.
