| # Bugbot Status Check for Cursor Bot Reviews | |
| # | |
| # This GitHub Action integrates cursor[bot] PR reviews with branch protection. | |
| # When cursor[bot] comments "LGTM" on a PR, it sets a success status check. | |
| # | |
| # Setup: | |
| # 1. Add this workflow to .github/workflows/bugbot-status.yml | |
| # 2. Add "bugbot-review" as a required status check in branch protection | |
| # 3. Comment "@cursor please review" on PRs to trigger cursor[bot] review | |
| # 4. When cursor[bot] says "LGTM", the status check passes and PR can merge | |
| # | |
| # Works with: https://cursor.com background agents | |
