List PRs Awaiting Your Review

April 23, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

If you work on a software team or steward an open-source project, then there are likely some open PRs that you've been tagged to review. I am usually able to catch most review requests as they come up either from the GitHub email notifications or by keeping an eye on the PRs tab of active projects. Sometimes I get consumed by a task and something slips through the cracks.

There are a couple other ways to quickly check if anything is waiting on my review.

From the web UI I can visit the following URL which will show all PRs across all projects where my review has been requested:

https://github.com/pulls/review-requested

The GitHub CLI (gh) can do the same and I can do it right from the terminal instead of navigating several clicks within GitHub's web UI.

$ gh search prs --review-requested=@me --state=open

That too will list PRs across all projects that are open and awaiting my review.

If that one ends up being a little too noisy, you can also use gh to list just PRs for the current project:

$ gh pr list --search "review-requested:@me"
