Checks are not necessarily listed in the checks tab. The way we do PR's the checks are listed at the bottom of the conversation tab and nothing is on the checks tab. So for people like us this behaviour would be confusing.

@jacobat Thank you for the context! It sounds like your repo is using Statuses instead of Checks, which would explain why they are not listed in the Checks tab.

I think that pr checks --web flag might still be useful for people who uses Checks (and not Statuses) in their repositories.

Just to be clear: Statuses show up when doing gh pr checks - which is why it could be confusing for people that --web would go to the checks page which would then be empty.

The reason I ended up here was because I would like a --web that opened the statuses :)

@jacobat I see! I don't think there is a web view that displays Statuses for a PR, so would you expect that --web would take you to the Merge Box of a PR where Checks+Statuses are displayed live?

That would be an option. In my case the status points to our CI, so even better would be to go straight to the CI page (the url is part of the output from gh pr checks). This is probably not a good solution for everyone though since you can have multiple statuses.

Here's an example of the output I see for reference:

All checks were successful
0 failing, 1 successful, and 0 pending checks
