About this skill

Pull Request Skill

Create a draft pull request with a clear title and explicit description of changes.

Instructions

  1. Analyze branch changes: Understand all commits since diverging from main
  2. Push to remote: Ensure all commits are pushed
  3. Create draft PR: Always open as draft for review before merging

PR Title Format

Follow conventional commit format for the PR title:

<type>: <description>

Types

  • feat: New feature or capability
  • fix: Bug fix
  • refactor: Code restructuring
  • docs: Documentation changes
  • chore: Maintenance tasks
  • perf: Performance improvements

Title Rules

  • Keep under 70 characters
  • Use lowercase, imperative mood
  • No period at the end

PR Body Format

The body MUST be explicit about what changed. Structure:

## Summary
<Clear description of what this PR does and why>

## Changes
- <Specific change 1>
- <Specific change 2>
- <Specific change 3>

## Test plan
- [ ] <How to verify change 1>
- [ ] <How to verify change 2>

Execution Steps

  1. Run git status to check for uncommitted changes
  2. Run git log main..HEAD --oneline to see all commits in this branch
  3. Run git diff main...HEAD to see the full diff against main
  4. Check if remote branch exists and is up to date:
    git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{u} 2>/dev/null || echo "no upstream"
    
  5. Push to remote if needed: git push -u origin HEAD
  6. Create draft PR using gh CLI:
    gh pr create --draft --title "<type>: <description>" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
    ## Summary
    <description>
    
    ## Changes
    - <change 1>
    - <change 2>
    
    ## Test plan
    - [ ] <test 1>
    - [ ] <test 2>
