Pull Request Creator

This skill guides the creation of high-quality Pull Requests that adhere to the

repository's standards.

Workflow

Follow these steps to create a Pull Request:

• Branch Management: CRITICAL: Ensure you are NOT working on the

main branch.

• Run git branch --show-current.

• If the current branch is main, you MUST create and switch to a new

descriptive branch:

git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

-

Commit Changes: Verify that all intended changes are committed.

• Run git status to check for unstaged or uncommitted changes.

• If there are uncommitted changes, stage and commit them with a descriptive

message before proceeding. NEVER commit directly to main.

git add .

git commit -m "type(scope): description"

-

Locate Template: Search for a pull request template in the repository.

• Check .github/pull_request_template.md

• Check .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md

• If multiple templates exist (e.g., in .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/),

ask the user which one to use or select the most appropriate one based on

the context (e.g., bug_fix.md vs feature.md).

-

Read Template: Read the content of the identified template file.

-

Draft Description: Create a PR description that strictly follows the

template's structure.

• Headings: Keep all headings from the template.

• Checklists: Review each item. Mark with [x] if completed. If an item

is not applicable, leave it unchecked or mark as [ ] (depending on the

template's instructions) or remove it if the template allows flexibility

(but prefer keeping it unchecked for transparency).

• Content: Fill in the sections with clear, concise summaries of your

changes.

• Related Issues: Link any issues fixed or related to this PR (e.g.,

"Fixes #123").

-

Preflight Check: Before creating the PR, run the workspace preflight

script to ensure all build, lint, and test checks pass.

npm run preflight

If any checks fail, address the issues before proceeding to create the PR.

-

Push Branch: Push the current branch to the remote repository.

CRITICAL SAFETY RAIL: Double-check your branch name before pushing.

NEVER push if the current branch is main.

# Verify current branch is NOT main

git branch --show-current

# Push non-interactively

git push -u origin HEAD

-

Create PR: Use the gh CLI to create the PR. To avoid shell escaping

issues with multi-line Markdown, write the description to a temporary file

first.

# 1. Write the drafted description to a temporary file

# 2. Create the PR using the --body-file flag

gh pr create --title "type(scope): succinct description" --body-file <temp_file_path>

# 3. Remove the temporary file

rm <temp_file_path>

• Title: Ensure the title follows the

Conventional Commits format if the

repository uses it (e.g., feat(ui): add new button,

fix(core): resolve crash).

Principles

• Safety First: NEVER push to main. This is your highest priority.

• Compliance: Never ignore the PR template. It exists for a reason.

• Completeness: Fill out all relevant sections.

• Accuracy: Don't check boxes for tasks you haven't done.
