What it does

This workflow listens to every new comment on open MRs and continuously evaluates whether reviewers are stuck in a real disagreement rather than routine back-and-forth. When it detects an unresolved standoff, it distills both sides into a neutral, even-handed summary and posts it to a Microsoft Teams channel so a tech lead can step in and decide, rather than letting the MR stall silently.

When to use it

Use it on high-traffic repos where review threads occasionally deadlock and nobody escalates. It surfaces the stuck conversations early instead of waiting for someone to notice an MR has gone quiet for days.

How it works

  1. 1A new MR comment fires the trigger.
  2. 2The workflow fetches the surrounding discussion thread for context.
  3. 3OpenAI judges whether there is genuine unresolved disagreement and summarizes each position neutrally.
  4. 4A logic step continues only when a real standoff is detected and it has not already been escalated.
  5. 5The neutral two-sided summary is posted to the Microsoft Teams escalation channel.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect GitLabRepos, MRs, pipelines, registry.
  2. 2
    Connect OpenAIModels, embeddings, files.
  3. 3
    Connect Microsoft TeamsChannels, chats, files.
  4. 4
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  5. 5
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  6. 6
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
