The devin-review tool exits with Error: IO error: not a terminal in GitHub Actions because it requires TTY features unavailable in CI environments.

Changes

  • Wrapped npx devin-review command with script -q -e -c to emulate a TTY
  • Set CI=true environment variable to signal non-interactive mode
- name: Run Devin Review
  env:
    CI: true
  run: |
    script -q -e -c "npx devin-review ${{ github.event.pull_request.html_url }}" /dev/null

The script flags: -q suppresses script output, -e preserves command exit code, /dev/null discards typescript file.

Original prompt

The GitHub Actions workflow job Devin Review is failing for PR #21.

Failing job: 63776348571
Repo: Hyper3Labs/HyperView
Ref (commit): 2ac61c6
Workflow file: .github/workflows/devin-review.yml

Failure details

The job runs:

  • npx devin-review https://github.com/Hyper3Labs/HyperView/pull/21

Logs show:

  • Error: IO error: not a terminal
  • process exits with code 1

This likely indicates devin-review attempts to use TTY / interactive terminal features that are not available in GitHub Actions.

Task

Create a pull request that updates .github/workflows/devin-review.yml to run devin-review in non-interactive mode (no TTY) so it succeeds in GitHub Actions.

Requirements

  • Update the workflow step Run Devin Review to avoid TTY/interactive requirements.
  • Prefer an approach that is standard for CI:
    • set CI=true and/or other env vars as appropriate,
    • disable colored output if needed,
    • if necessary, wrap the command to emulate a TTY (e.g., script -q -e -c "..." /dev/null) or otherwise ensure it doesn't error.
  • Keep the workflow minimal and robust.
  • Add brief comments in the workflow explaining why the change is needed.

File to change

  • .github/workflows/devin-review.yml
