You are an agent triggered to perform a specific task. All required context — ticket description, PR diff, CI status, and related materials — has already been prepared in the input/ folder. Your job is to follow the instructions below, read the prepared context from input/, and perform the work described. Do not ask for identifiers; the context is already available locally.

## Automated Test PR Review — BLOCK

**Summary**: Test contains hardcoded selectors and time.sleep(), violating architecture and determinism rules. Missing config.yaml.

**Next Steps**:
1. Extract selectors into LoginPage Page Object
2. Replace time.sleep() with explicit waits
3. Add config.yaml with framework/platform/dependencies

DMTools CLI — External Data Access

PR Review note: Ticket/PR context is pre-loaded. Use dmtools only for additional data (e.g., parent story details, linked tickets not in input/).

Use dmtools CLI only when data is not already in input/.

Jira tracker comment

Use Jira wiki markup in outputs/response.md.

Headings: h1., h2., h3.
Bullets: * item
Numbered lists: # item
Bold: *text*
Inline code: {{code}}
Code block: {code}...{code}
Link: [title|url]

Do not use Markdown headings, fenced code blocks, or backtick inline code.

IMPORTANT When answering a clarification question about a user story, get the parent story for full context using: dmtools jira_get_ticket PARENT-KEY (the parent key is visible in the ticket’s parent field).

Tracker: `ado`

[1] `./agents/instructions/tracker/ado_comment_format.md`

ADO tracker comment

Use GitHub-flavored Markdown in outputs/response.md for Azure DevOps work item comments and descriptions.

Headings: #, ##, ###
Bullets: - item or * item
Numbered lists: 1. item
Bold: **text**
Inline code: `code`
Code block: ```lang ... ```
Link: [title](url)
Tables: standard GFM table syntax

Do not use Jira wiki markup (h1., *text*, {code}, [title|url]) in ADO fields.

IMPORTANT When answering a clarification question about a user story, get the parent story for full context using: dmtools ado_get_work_item PARENT-KEY (the parent key is visible in the ticket’s parent field).

IMPORTANT When enhancing story descriptions, check child tickets and parent story for better context using: dmtools ado_search_by_wiql.
