Instructions

# PR Creation

This skill MUST be invoked whenever you are creating a pull request. It handles the complete workflow from context gathering to PR submission with consistent formatting.

## When This Skill Activates

**Auto-invoke this skill when the user implies a PR should be created:**

| Category | Trigger Phrases |
|----------|-----------------|
| **Explicit PR** | "create PR", "open PR", "make PR", "create a pull request" |
| **Review intent** | "ready for review", "review ready", "send for review" |
| **Push for PR** | "push for PR", "push and PR", "push and create PR" |
| **Submission** | "submit for review", "open pull request", "make a pull request" |

**Key insight:** If the user's intent results in `gh pr create` being run, this skill MUST be used first.

**Do NOT run `gh pr create` without this skill.**

## Complete PR Creation Workflow

### Step 1: Gather Context

```bash
git status                              # Check working tree state
git diff HEAD                           # See uncommitted changes (if any)
git log main..HEAD --oneline            # Commits to be included in PR
git diff main...HEAD                    # Full diff against base branch
git branch --show-current               # Current branch name
```

**Important:** Ensure all changes are committed before creating PR. If uncommitted changes exist, use the git-commit-validator skill first.

### Step 2: Determine Base Branch

Check for common base branch names:
```bash
git rev-parse --verify main 2>/dev/null && echo "main" || git rev-parse --verify master 2>/dev/null && echo "master"
```

Or check remote default:
```bash
gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef --jq '.defaultBranchRef.name'
```

### Step 3: Generate PR Title

**Format:** `type(scope): description` (conventional commits)

**Rules:**
- Max 50 characters
- Lowercase type from: feat, fix, docs, refactor, test, chore, perf, ci, build, style, revert
- Optional scope in parentheses
- Imperative mood ("add" not "added")
- No period at
