|---|---|---|
pr | Yes | Pull request number to review. Substituted for {{PR_NUMBER}} throughout this skill and the shared guide. |
investigation-root | No | Directory for large temporary artifacts such as worktrees, sources, builds, examples, and installs. Final deliverables still go under reviews/ in the caller's current directory. If omitted, infer a short same-drive path when clear; otherwise ask. Never use the Copilot session directory or an arbitrary long temp path. |

Review requirements
Read all of .github/skills/shared/review-vcpkg-pr-guide.md before reviewing; every instruction in it is mandatory.
Review the PR in a detached worktree or equivalent detached-HEAD workspace, with vcpkg.exe (Windows) or vcpkg (non-Windows) copied into it. For example, after git worktree add D:\vcpkg2 origin/master, copy .\vcpkg.exe to D:\vcpkg2. Do not switch branches or run mutable review steps in the caller's current working tree.
Required outputs
Write all final deliverables under reviews/pr-{{PR_NUMBER}} in the caller's current directory, not under investigation-root. The shared guide defines their contents.
