+- `warning`: lines matching `##[warning]`, `WARN`
+- `failure`: lines matching `N failed`, `FAIL`, `✕`
+- `trace`: stack trace lines (deduplicated)
+
+**workflow for using results:**
+1. scan `log_index` to see where errors/warnings/failures are located in the log
+2. read `excerpt` for immediate context around the main error
+3. if excerpt doesn't show what you need, read specific line ranges from `full_log_path`
+4. check `failed_steps` and read the workflow yml to understand what command failed
 
 **example:**
 ```typescript
 // when handling a check_suite_completed webhook
-await mcp.call("gh_pullfrog/get_check_suite_logs", {
+const result = await mcp.call("gh_pullfrog/get_check_suite_logs", {
   check_suite_id: check_suite.id
 });
+
+// result.failed_jobs[0].log_index shows:
+// [
+//   { line: 181, content: "WARN  Failed to create bin...", type: "warning" },
+//   { line: 1079, content: "Error: expect(received).toBe(expected)", type: "error" },
+//   ...
+// ]
+// use these line numbers to read specific sections from full_log_path

+### output tools
+
+#### `set_output`
+set the action output for consumption by subsequent workflow steps. useful when pullfrog is used as a step in a user-defined CI workflow (e.g., generating release notes).
+
+**parameters:**
+- `value` (string): the output value to expose
+
+**returns:**
+- `success`: true on success
+
+the value will be available as the `result` output of the action, accessible via `${{ steps.<step-id>.outputs.result }}`.
+
+**example:**
+```typescript
+// when generating content for downstream consumption
+await mcp.call("gh_pullfrog/set_output", {
+  value: "## Release Notes\n\n- Added new feature X\n- Fixed bug Y"
+});
+```
+
+**usage in workflow:**
+```yaml
+- uses: pullfrog/pullfrog@v1
+  id: notes
+  with:
+    prompt: "Generate release notes for v2.0.0"
+
+- uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v1
+  with:
+    body: ${{ steps.notes.outputs.result }}
+```
+
 ### other tools
 
 see individual files for documentation on other tools:
 - `comment.ts` - create, edit, and update comments
 - `issue.ts` - create issues
+- `output.ts` - set action output for workflow consumption
 - `pr.ts` - create pull requests
 - `prInfo.ts` - get pull request information
 - `review.ts` - create pull request reviews
-- `selectMode.ts` - select execution mode
+- `delegate.ts` - delegate task to a subagent with a specific mode and effort level

+      prompt: `Follow these steps to review the PR. Your job is to find problems—assume they exist until you've proven otherwise. Do not submit a clean review without thorough investigation.
 
 1. **CHECKOUT** - Call ${ghPullfrogMcpName}/checkout_pr with the PR number. This should give you all PR metadata you need, including a \`diffPath\`: a path to a temp file containing the PR diff.
 
+2. **ANALYZE** - Read the modified files to understand the changes in context.
+   - **Understand the change**: What is being modified and why? What's the before/after behavior?
+   - **Evaluate the approach**: Is it sound? If not, focus on approach before implementation details.
 
-2. **ANALYZE** 
-   - Read the modified files to understand the changes in context. Make sure you understand what's being changed.
-   - Is it a good idea? Think about the tradeoffs.
-   - Is the approach sound? If not, focus on the approach first. Don't waste time on implementation details if the approach is wrong.
-   - Can you imagine a better approach? If so, explain. Make sure it's strictly better, not just different.
-   - Are there bugs, edge cases, security issues, or usability issues? Use your imagination.
+3. **INVESTIGATE** - Actively hunt for problems. Use these techniques:
+   - **Trace data flow**: Use grep to follow how data moves through the system. How is state passed? Where could it get lost?
+   - **Check boundaries**: What happens across process boundaries, module boundaries, async boundaries? State that exists in one context may not exist in another.
+   - **Explore failure modes**: What if this throws? What if that returns null? What if the network fails? What if this runs twice?
+   - **Verify assumptions**: If the code assumes X, verify X is actually true. Use grep, read related files, check documentation.
+   - **Consider lifecycle**: Initialization, cleanup, error recovery. Are resources acquired before use? Released after? What happens on cancellation?
+   - Do NOT stop at "this looks reasonable." Dig until you either find a problem or have concrete evidence there isn't one.
 
-3. **DRAFT** - For each inline comment, find the line in the diff. Each code line shows: \`| OLD | NEW | TYPE | CODE\`. Use the NEW line number (second column). When suggesting specific code changes, use GitHub's suggestion format with \`\`\`suggestion blocks to enable one-click apply. Example:
-   you could simplify this
-   \`\`\`suggestion
-   const result = data.map(x => x.value);
-   \`\`\`
-   or you could use reduce instead
-   \`\`\`suggestion
-   const result = data.reduce((acc, x) => [...acc, x.value], []);
-   \`\`\`
+4. **DRAFT LINE-BY-LINE COMMENTS** - For each issue found, draft an inline comment on the specific line. Use the NEW line number from the diff (second column: \`| OLD | NEW | TYPE | CODE\`). If no issues found, skip to step 6.
 
-4. **FILTER COMMENTS** - Do not nitpick! Do not leave compliments that are not actionable. Do not critique the code hygiene or anything stylistic.
+5. **FILTER LINE-BY-LINE COMMENTS** - Each inline comment must be actionable. Remove anything that doesn't require action:
+   - **Not actionable → no comment**: Do NOT create inline comments for compliments (e.g., "this looks clean", "nice refactor") or general observations. These waste reviewer attention.
+   - **Actionable by agent → keep**: Bugs, logic errors, missing error handling, security issues, race conditions, resource leaks, incorrect assumptions.
+   - **Requires human decision → keep**: If something needs human judgment (architectural choice, product decision, tradeoff evaluation), create a comment clearly stating what decision is needed and why.
+   - Remove style-only comments (formatting, naming conventions) unless they cause real confusion.
 
-5. **SUBMIT** — Use ${ghPullfrogMcpName}/create_pull_request_review with:
-- \`comments\`: Array of all inline comments with file paths and line numbers
-- \`body\`: Everything else. Aim for a 1-3 sentence summary of the urgency level (e.g., "minor suggestions" vs "blocking issues") and any critical callouts (e.g., API key exposure). It can be longer if there are concerns that do not lend themselves to inline comments.
-- If you have no substantive feedback, submit an empty comments array with a brief approving body.
-- Again, do not nitpick.
+6. **WRITE SUMMARY** - Draft a 1-3 sentence summary for the review body. Include urgency level and any concerns about code outside the diff.
 
+7. **SUBMIT** — Use ${ghPullfrogMcpName}/create_pull_request_review:

+   - \`comments\`: The filtered inline comments from step 5

+
+**CRITICAL RULE**: Only fix issues that were INTRODUCED BY THIS PR. If the CI failure is unrelated to the PR's changes, you MUST abort without committing anything and report why.
+
+1. **GET FAILURE INFO** - Call ${ghPullfrogMcpName}/get_check_suite_logs with the check_suite_id from EVENT DATA. This returns:
+   - \`log_index\`: array of interesting lines (errors, warnings, failures) with line numbers - scan this first

+
+2. **CHECKOUT AND ASSESS CAUSATION** - Use ${ghPullfrogMcpName}/checkout_pr to get the PR diff. BEFORE attempting any fix, you MUST determine if this PR caused the failure:
+   
+   **Ask yourself**: "Could the changes in this PR have caused this failure?"
+   
+   - Read the PR diff carefully - what files were modified?
+   - What is failing? (test file, module, assertion)
+   - Is there a PLAUSIBLE CONNECTION between the PR changes and the failure?
+   
+   **ABORT immediately if any of these are true:**
+   - The failing test/file was NOT touched by this PR AND doesn't depend on changed code
+   - The error is infrastructure-related (network timeout, runner OOM, service unavailable)
+   - The error is a flaky test that passes/fails randomly
+   - The error existed before this PR (pre-existing bug in main branch)
+   - The error is in a dependency update not introduced by this PR
+   
+   **When aborting**, use ${ghPullfrogMcpName}/report_progress to explain:
+   "This CI failure appears unrelated to the PR's changes. [Describe the failure]. [Explain why it's not caused by the PR]. No changes made."
+   
+   **Only proceed** if there's a clear, logical connection between the PR changes and the failure.
+
+3. **UNDERSTAND HOW CI RUNS** - Read the workflow file to understand exactly what commands CI runs:
+   - Look at \`.github/workflows/*.yml\` files
+   - Find the job/step that failed (from \`failed_steps\`)
+   - Note the EXACT command (e.g., \`pnpm -r test --filter=action\`, not just \`pnpm test\`)
+   - Check for any CI-specific environment variables or setup steps
+
+4. ${dependencyInstallationStep}
+
+5. **REPRODUCE LOCALLY** - Run the EXACT same command that CI runs:
+   - Do NOT simplify (e.g., don't run \`pnpm test\` if CI runs \`pnpm -r test --filter=action\`)
+   - Check if CI uses specific flags, filters, or environment variables
+   - If CI runs multiple test suites, run them all
+
+6. **ANALYZE THE FAILURE** - Use the log_index and excerpt to understand:
+   - What exactly failed (test name, file, assertion)
+   - Are there earlier warnings that might explain the failure?
+   - Is the failure flaky or deterministic?
+
+7. **FIX THE ISSUE** - Make the necessary code changes. Common patterns:
+   - Test assertion failures: fix the code or update the test expectation
+   - Build failures: fix type errors, missing imports, syntax issues
+   - Lint failures: fix code style issues
+   - Timeout/flaky tests: investigate race conditions or increase timeouts
+
+8. **VERIFY THE FIX** - Run the EXACT same CI command again to confirm the fix works
+

+ *
+ * uses Basic auth format (AUTHORIZATION: basic <base64>) matching actions/checkout.
+ * the Bearer format doesn't work with git's extraheader mechanism.
+ *
+ * the git binary path is resolved once at startup via resolveGit() and verified
+ * (sha256 hash check) before each call to detect tampering by a malicious agent.

+ * @example
+ * $git("fetch", ["origin", "main"], { token, restricted: true });
+ * $git("push", ["-u", "origin", "feature"], { token, restricted: true });
