/dependabot-sweep

Clear the Dependabot backlog across every repo you own.

What it does

Sweeps every open Dependabot PR across the orgs or repos in a TOML config and drives each one toward merge through bounded per-repository workers. Fixes failures automatically by default, hands red CI to ci-fix and involved merges to pr-merge-flow, and saves one complete report that it also shows inline.

When to reach for it

"Update my dependabot PRs" — when dependency PRs have piled up across many repositories.

It's working if

  • Every PR it touched shows up in the report, with a recommendation for anything left open.
  • A merge happens only where your existing authorization covers it.
  • Blockers, stopped runs, and your own holds are reported as separate things.
