Callable from `/pr`, `/cpm`, or any agent that needs a PR body without the publishing plumbing. Does NOT invoke `gh pr create` or `gh pr edit`. - **cpm** - Sequenced commit-PR-merge workflow encoded as a skill so other commands can embed it. ## Files | File | Type | Description | |------|------|-------------| | `commands/commit.md` | command | Stage all changes and commit with conventional format | | `commands/pr.md` | command | Push branch and create PR closing an issue | | `commands/cpm.md` | command | Commit, create PR, and merge in one shot | | `commands/gs.md` | command | Git status dashboard with project info | | `lib/gs-gather.sh` | lib | Helper script that gathers git and project info for /gs | | `commands/ghi.md` | command | Create GitHub issue with labels | | `skills/cpm/SKILL.md` | skill | Sequenced commit-PR-merge workflow | | `skills/pr-description/SKILL.md` | skill | Pure PR title and body writer (returns structured output, no publishing) | | `skills/pr-description/references/default-template.md` | skill-reference | Fallback PR body structure when no repo template exists | ## Dependencies None. ## Manual Installation Copy command files to your Claude Code commands directory: ```bash # Create commands directory if it does not exist mkdir -p ~/.claude/commands # Copy each command cp commands/commit.md ~/.claude/commands/commit.md cp commands/pr.md ~/.claude/commands/pr.md cp commands/cpm.md ~/.claude/commands/cpm.md cp commands/gs.md ~/.claude/commands/gs.md cp commands/ghi.md ~/.claude/commands/ghi.md # Lib helper mkdir -p ~/.claude/lib cp lib/gs-gather.sh ~/.claude/lib/gs-gather.sh # Skills mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/cpm ~/.claude/skills/pr-description/references cp skills/cpm/SKILL.md ~/.claude/skills/cpm/SKILL.md cp skills/pr-description/SKILL.md ~/.claude/skills/pr-description/SKILL.md cp skills/pr-description/references/default-template.md ~/.claude/skills/pr-description/references/default-template.md ``` After copying, the commands are available as `/commit`, `/pr`, `/cpm`, `/gs`, and `/ghi` in Claude Code. The `pr-description` and `cpm` skills are invocable by name from other commands or agents. ## Files ### command #### commands/commit.md ```` --- description: Stage all changes and commit with conventional format allowed-tools: Agent --- # /commit - Stage and Commit Changes Use the Agent tool to execute this entire workflow on a cheaper model: - **model**: sonnet - **description**: commit workflow Pass the agent all workflow instructions below. Include the received arguments: `$ARGUMENTS` After the agent completes, relay its final report to the user exactly as received. --- ## Workflow Instructions Stage all current changes and create a commit with conventional format. Arguments: $ARGUMENTS ### 1. Verify There Are Changes to Commit ```bash git status --short ``` If no changes exist, report that there is nothing to commit and stop. ### 2. Understand the Context Gather context to write a good commit message: ```bash # Current branch name (often contains issue number) git branch --show-current # What has changed git diff --stat git diff --cached --stat # Recent commits for style reference git log --oneline -5 ``` ### 3. Extract Issue Number Derive the issue number from the branch name. Convention: branches are named `{issue-number}-{description}`. ```bash BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current) ISSUE_NUM=$(echo "$BRANCH" | grep -oE '^[0-9]+') ``` If no issue number is found in the branch name and the arguments contain an issue number, use that instead. If neither source has an issue number, proceed without one. ### 4. Run Verification Before committing, run the project's verification suite to ensure nothing is broken: ```bash # Check for common verification commands (adapt to project) # Look for package.json scripts cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -E '"(lint|type-check|test:run|test|build)"' ``` Run available checks: - Linting (if available) - Type checking (if TypeScript project) - Tests (if available) - Build (if available) If any check fails, fix the issue before proceeding. Do not commit broken code. ### 5. Stage All Changes ```bash git add -A ``` Review what is staged: ```bash git diff --cached --stat ``` ### 6. Create the Commit Format: `{issue_number}: {brief description}` If an issue number was found: ```bash git commit -m "{issue_number}: {brief description of changes}" ``` If no issue number: ```bash git commit -m "{brief description of changes}" ``` Rules for the commit message: - Keep the first line under 72 characters - Use imperative mood ("Add feature" not "Added feature") - Be specific about what changed - Do not include any AI attribution or co-author trailers - If the arguments contain a specific message, use it (but still prepend the issue number) ### 7. Confirm Success ```bash git log --oneline -1 ``` Report the commit hash and message to the user. ```` #### commands/pr.md ```` --- description: Push branch and create a pull request that closes an issue allowed-tools: Agent --- # /pr - Push Branch and Create Pull Request Use the Agent tool to execute this entire workflow on a cheaper model: - **model**: sonnet - **description**: push and create PR Pass the agent all workflow instructions below. Include the received arguments: `$ARGUMENTS` After the agent completes, relay its final report to the user exactly as received. --- ## Workflow Instructions Push the current branch to the remote and create a PR that closes the associated issue. Arguments: $ARGUMENTS ### 1. Pre-Flight Checks Verify the working directory is clean: ```bash git status --short ``` If there are uncommitted changes, warn the user and suggest running `/commit` first. Do not proceed with uncommitted changes. ### 2. Gather Context ```bash # Current branch BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current) # Extract issue number from branch name ISSUE_NUM=$(echo "$BRANCH" | grep -oE '^[0-9]+') # Check we are not on main if [ "$BRANCH" = "main" ] || [ "$BRANCH" = "master" ]; then echo "ERROR: Cannot create PR from main/master branch" exit 1 fi # Get commit history for this branch git log --oneline origin/main..HEAD 2>/dev/null || git log --oneline -5 ``` ### 3. Run Verification Run the project's full verification suite before pushing: ```bash # Detect and run available checks npm run lint 2>/dev/null npm run type-check 2>/dev/null npm run test:run 2>/dev/null || npm test 2>/dev/null npm run build 2>/dev/null ``` All checks must pass. Fix any failures before proceeding. ### 4. Rebase on Main Ensure the branch is up to date with the latest main: ```bash git fetch origin git rebase origin/main ``` If there are conflicts, resolve them. After resolving: ```bash git rebase --continue ``` ### 5. Push the Branch ```bash git push -u origin "$BRANCH" ``` If the branch was rebased and already existed on the remote: ```bash git push --force-with-lease -u origin "$BRANCH" ``` ### 6. Check for PR Template One local check — if a template file is in the repo, use it; otherwise write a value-first body (do NOT query the org's `.github` repo or create a template): ```bash ls pull_request_template.md PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md \ .github/pull_request_template.md .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md 2>/dev/null ``` If a template is found, read it and structure the PR body using the template's sections and headings. ### 7. Create the Pull Request Build the PR title and body: - **Title**: `{issue_number}: {brief description}` (matching commit format) - **Body**: Must include `Closes #{issue_number}` to auto-close on merge If a PR template was found, fill in its sections. Otherwise use: ```bash gh pr create \ --title "{issue_number}: {description}" \ --body "## Summary {Summary of changes} ## Changes {Key changes made} ## Test Plan {How this was tested} ## Issue Closes #{issue_number}" ``` ### 8. Tracking Update Note: Tracking status is updated automatically by the PostToolUse hook on `gh pr create` (sets status to "pr-created"). No manual label management needed. ### 9. Report Result Display: - PR URL - PR number - Issue it closes - Any CI checks that are running ```` #### commands/cpm.md ```` --- description: One-shot commit, create PR, and merge workflow allowed-tools: Agent --- # /cpm - Commit, PR, and Merge Use the Agent tool to execute this entire workflow on a cheaper model: - **model**: sonnet - **description**: cpm git workflow Pass the agent all workflow instructions below. Include the received arguments: `$ARGUMENTS` After the agent completes, relay its final report to the user exactly as received. --- ## Workflow Instructions A one-shot workflow that commits current changes, creates a PR, and merges it. Designed for repos where you merge your own PRs (solo developer or self-merge workflow). Arguments: $ARGUMENTS ### 1. Pre-Flight Checks ```bash # Verify we have changes git status --short # Verify we are on a feature branch, not main BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current) if [ "$BRANCH" = "main" ] || [ "$BRANCH" = "master" ]; then echo "ERROR: Cannot run /cpm from main/master. Create a feature branch first." exit 1 fi ``` If no changes exist and no commits ahead of main, report that there is nothing to do. ### 2. Extract Issue Number ```bash BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current) ISSUE_NUM=$(echo "$BRANCH" | grep -oE '^[0-9]+') ``` If arguments contain an issue number, prefer that. If neither source has one, proceed without it. ### 3. Run Verification Run the project's full verification suite: ```bash # Detect and run available checks npm run lint 2>/dev/null npm run type-check 2>/dev/null npm run test:run 2>/dev/null || npm test 2>/dev/null npm run build 2>/dev/null ``` All checks must pass. Fix failures before proceeding. Do not skip verification. ### 4. Commit (if uncommitted changes exist) ```bash git add -A git diff --cached --stat ``` If there are staged changes: ```bash git commit -m "{issue_number}: {brief description}" ``` Rules: - Imperative mood - Under 72 characters - No AI attribution - If arguments include a message, use it (prepend issue number) ### 5. Rebase on Main ```bash git fetch origin git rebase origin/main ``` Resolve conflicts if any arise. ### 6. Push ```bash git push -u origin "$BRANCH" ``` Or if rebased and remote branch exists: ```bash git push --force-with-lease -u origin "$BRANCH" ``` ### 7. Create PR Check for a PR template first: ```bash ls pull_request_template.md PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md .github/pull_request_template.md .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md 2>/dev/null ``` Create the PR: ```bash gh pr create \ --title "{issue_number}: {description}" \ --body "## Summary {Summary of what this PR does} ## Changes {Key changes} ## Test Plan {How it was verified} ## Issue Closes #{issue_number}" ``` ### 8. Merge the PR Merge immediately with admin bypass — do not wait for GitHub Actions: ```bash gh pr merge --squash --delete-branch --admin ``` Local pre-push verification (lint + type-check + tests + build) is the source of truth. Remote CI is best-effort: Actions minutes budget runs out, runners stall, queues back up — none of those are reasons to block a merge. `--admin` bypasses the BLOCKED state from "checks pending" or "no required reviewer present" when you ARE the repo admin. It does NOT force-merge through an actually-FAILED check; if a check is in FAILURE state (not PENDING), stop and investigate — local pre-push should have caught it. If `--admin` itself fails — merge conflict, missing PR, you are not the admin in this repo — report and stop. Do not retry the same command; investigate the cause. ### 9. Close the Issue If the PR body included `Closes #N`, GitHub auto-closes the issue on merge. Verify: ```bash gh issue view "$ISSUE_NUM" --json state --jq '.state' 2>/dev/null ``` If still open, close manually: ```bash gh issue close "$ISSUE_NUM" --comment "Completed via PR merge" ``` Note: Tracking status is updated automatically by the PostToolUse hook. The hook sets status to "closed" on `gh issue close` and "merged" on `gh pr merge`. No manual label management needed. ### 10. Return to Main ```bash git checkout main git pull origin main --ff-only ``` ### 11. Report Result Display: - Commit hash and message - PR number and URL - Merge status - Issue close status - Current state (on main, clean working directory) ```` #### commands/gs.md ```` --- description: Show git status and project overview allowed-tools: Agent --- # /gs - Git Status Dashboard Use the Agent tool to execute this entire workflow on a cheaper model: - **model**: sonnet - **description**: git status dashboard Pass the agent all workflow instructions below. Include the received arguments: `$ARGUMENTS` After the agent completes, relay its dashboard output to the user exactly as received. --- ## Workflow Instructions Display a comprehensive overview of the current repository state. Arguments: $ARGUMENTS ### Step 1: Gather Data Run the gather script to collect all git data in parallel: ```bash bash ~/.claude/lib/gs-gather.sh ``` This outputs structured `=== SECTION ===` blocks with all data needed. ### Step 2: Present Dashboard Format the gathered data into this dashboard. Omit any section that is empty. ``` Repository: {name from REPO section} Branch: {branch} -> {upstream} Status: {clean / N files changed based on STATUS section} Sync: Main: {ahead_behind from SYNC main: line - format as "N ahead, N behind"} Remote: {ahead_behind from SYNC upstream: line - format as "N unpushed, N to pull"} Recent Commits: {LOG section content} Open PRs: {PRS section content, highlight any from current branch} Sibling Sessions (same repo): {SESSIONS content, or omit if empty} Changes: {DIFF section content - summarize staged/unstaged/untracked} Suggested: {recommended next action per table below} ``` | State | Recommendation | |-------|---------------| | Uncommitted changes on feature branch | Run `/commit` to commit your changes | | Committed changes, no PR | Run `/pr` to push and create a pull request | | On main with no changes | Create a feature branch or run `/ghi` | | Behind main on feature branch | Run `git fetch origin && git rebase origin/main` | | PR open and CI passing | Run `gh pr merge --squash --delete-branch` | | Clean state on main | Ready for new work | ```` #### commands/ghi.md ```` --- description: Create a new GitHub issue with proper labels allowed-tools: Agent --- # /ghi - Create GitHub Issue Use the Agent tool to execute this workflow on a cheaper model: - **model**: haiku - **description**: create GitHub issue Pass the agent all workflow instructions below. Include the received arguments: `$ARGUMENTS` After the agent completes, relay its report to the user exactly as received. --- ## Workflow Instructions Create a new GitHub issue with appropriate labels based on the type of work. Arguments: $ARGUMENTS ### 1. Gather Issue Details If the arguments provide enough context (title and description), use them directly. Otherwise, ask the user for: - **Title**: A concise, descriptive title - **Type**: feature, bug, refactor, chore, documentation, or human-agent - **Description**: What needs to be done and why ### 2. Determine Issue Type and Labels Map the issue type to the appropriate label: | Type | Label | Color | Description | |------|-------|-------|-------------| | feature | `enhancement` | `a2eeef` | New feature or improvement | | bug | `bug` | `d73a4a` | Something is not working | | refactor | `chore` | `e4e669` | Maintenance, refactoring, config | | chore | `chore` | `e4e669` | Maintenance, dependencies, config | | documentation | `documentation` | `0075ca` | Documentation changes | | human-agent | `human-agent` | `f9d0c4` | Requires manual human action | ### 3. Check Existing Labels Verify the required label exists in the repo: ```bash gh label list | grep -i "{label-name}" ``` If the label does not exist, create it: ```bash gh label create "{label-name}" --color "{color}" --description "{description}" ``` ### 4. Build the Issue Body Structure the issue body based on the type: **For features/enhancements:** ```markdown ## Summary {What this feature does and why it is needed} ## Implementation Steps {Numbered steps if known, or "TBD - to be planned"} ## Acceptance Criteria - [ ] {Criterion 1} - [ ] {Criterion 2} ``` **For bugs:** ```markdown ## Bug Description {What is happening vs. what should happen} ## Steps to Reproduce 1. {Step 1} 2. {Step 2} ## Expected Behavior {What should happen} ## Actual Behavior {What is happening} ``` **For human-agent tasks:** ```markdown ## Context {Why this manual action is needed} ## Required Actions - [ ] {Action 1} - [ ] {Action 2} ## Instructions {Step-by-step guide for the human} ``` ### 5. Create the Issue ```bash gh issue create \ --title "{title}" \ --label "{label}" \ --body "{body}" ``` For human-agent issues, also assign to the repo owner if known: ```bash gh issue create \ --title "{title}" \ --label "human-agent" \ --body "{body}" ``` ### 6. Report Result Display: - Issue number - Issue URL - Title - Labels applied - Suggested next step (e.g., "Create a branch with `git checkout -b {issue-number}-{description} origin/main`") ```` ### skill #### skills/cpm/SKILL.md ```` # /cpm — Commit, PR, Merge One-shot workflow: commit all changes, create a PR, merge it, close the issue, and rebase on main. ## Usage ``` /cpm ``` No arguments needed. Derives the issue number from the current branch name (expects `{issue-number}-{description}` format). ## Instructions Execute the following steps sequentially. Do NOT skip steps or proceed if a step fails. ### Phase 1: Pre-flight 1. Run `git status` to confirm there are changes to commit. 2. Run `git diff --stat` to see what changed. 3. Extract the issue number from the current branch name (the leading digits before the first `-`). 4. Run `git log --oneline -5` to check recent commit style. If there are no changes and no unpushed commits, stop and report "Nothing to commit or push." ### Phase 2: Commit 1. Stage all changed files with `git add` (prefer specific files over `git add -A`; never stage `.env` or credential files). 2. Create a commit with message format: `{issue-number}: {concise description of changes}` 3. Do NOT add any Co-Authored-By trailers or AI attribution. ### Phase 3: Push & Create PR 1. Push the branch: `git push -u origin HEAD` 2. Check for a PR template at `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md` or `pull_request_template.md` in the repo root. 3. Create the PR using `gh pr create`: - Title: `{issue-number}: {concise description}` - Body: Use the PR template if found, otherwise use Summary + Test Plan format - Include `Closes #{issue-number}` in the body 4. Capture the PR URL. ### Phase 4: Merge 1. Merge with admin bypass so you do not wait on GitHub Actions: `gh pr merge --squash --delete-branch --admin` 2. Confirm the merge succeeded. Local pre-push verification is the source of truth. Remote Actions stall, run out of budget, and queue — those are not reasons to block a merge. `--admin` bypasses the BLOCKED state caused by "checks pending" or "no required reviewer present" when you are the repo admin. It does NOT force-merge through an actually-FAILED check; a FAILURE check (not PENDING) means local verification missed something — stop and investigate, do not retry with `--admin`. ### Phase 5: Close Issue 1. The issue should auto-close from "Closes #N" in the PR body. 2. Verify with `gh issue view {issue-number} --json state`. 3. If still open, close it manually: `gh issue close {issue-number}` ### Phase 6: Return to Main 1. `git checkout main` 2. `git pull origin main --ff-only` 3. If `--ff-only` fails (local main diverged), fall back to `git fetch origin && git reset --hard origin/main` 4. Confirm clean state with `git status`. ### Phase 7: Report Output a summary in this format: ``` ## Completed - **Issue**: #{issue-number} — {issue title} - **PR**: {PR URL} (merged) - **Commit**: {short SHA} — {commit message} - **Branch**: Deleted `{branch-name}`, now on `main` - **Status**: Clean, up to date with origin/main ``` ## Error Handling - If `gh pr merge --admin` fails for a real reason — merge conflict, missing PR, you are not the admin in this repo, a check in FAILURE state — report and stop. Do not retry the same command; investigate the cause. - A FAILURE check (not PENDING) is the one signal that should block a merge. Pre-push verification should have caught it. If a remote check disagrees with local, investigate before merging. - If `git pull --ff-only` fails, fall back to `git fetch origin && git reset --hard origin/main`. - If any step fails, stop and report what succeeded and what failed. ```` #### skills/pr-description/SKILL.md ```` --- name: pr-description description: Pure writer for PR titles and bodies. Takes a PR reference (or the current branch), reads diff + commits + linked issue + PR template, and returns structured {title, body}. Does NOT call `gh pr create` or `gh pr edit`. Invoke from `/pr`, `/cpm`, or any caller that needs a CCGM-voice PR body without the publishing plumbing. disable-model-invocation: false --- # PR Description Writer A pure writer skill. One job: produce `{title, body}` for a pull request in CCGM voice, value-first, matching the repo's PR template when one exists. Never publishes. Never calls `gh pr create`, `gh pr edit`, `gh pr comment`, or any mutating GitHub command. The caller is responsible for doing something with the returned text. ## When to Run - A caller (e.g., `/pr`, `/cpm`, a coordinator agent) needs PR text and wants the voice separated from the publishing flow - Rewriting an existing PR body to sharpen it before a second review pass - Generating text for a PR that does not yet exist, so the caller can preview before pushing Do NOT run this skill when the caller already has a finalized title and body - pass them through instead. ## Input Parsing Accept any of the following as the PR reference: | Form | Example | Meaning | |------|---------|---------| | bare number | `561` | PR #561 in the current repo | | hash number | `#561` | same | | prefixed | `pr:561` | same | | full URL | `https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/561` | PR in that repo | | branch name | `288-pr-description-writer-skill` | find the open PR for this branch, or fall through to "no PR yet" | | empty / current | (no argument) | current branch; PR may or may not exist | | steering text | `emphasize the benchmarks` | applied on top of any other input as a tone/content hint | Multiple forms can coexist. `pr:561 emphasize the perf numbers` means "PR #561, lean on perf." If no PR exists yet (e.g., the caller is about to create one), operate on the branch: compare `origin/main...HEAD` for the diff and commit set. ## Inputs to Collect Collect in this order. Stop once each input is captured or confirmed absent. 1. **Linked issue** - from the branch name (`{issue-number}-{description}` convention) or from the PR body's `Closes #N` line. Read with `gh issue view {num}`. 2. **Commits on the branch** - `git log origin/main..HEAD --pretty=format:"%s%n%n%b%n---"` 3. **Diff stat** - `git diff origin/main...HEAD --stat` 4. **Full diff** - `git diff origin/main...HEAD` (sampled; see "Diff Sampling" below) 5. **PR template** - check in order: - `pull_request_template.md` in the repo root - `PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md` in the repo root - `.github/pull_request_template.md` - `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md` - If none found, use the fallback structure in `references/default-template.md` 6. **Existing PR body** - if a PR already exists, `gh pr view {num} --json body,title`. Treat as prior art to improve, not replace wholesale. 7. **Steering text** - whatever hint the caller passed. Apply after drafting; do not let it override the template structure. ### Diff Sampling For diffs over ~500 lines, sample rather than dump: - Read the full diff stat (every file, every ± count) - Read full diffs for files with substantive changes (>20 lines added or removed) - For large generated/lockfile changes, record one line: "`{file}`: {N} lines; generated/lockfile, skipped" Never claim coverage of a file you did not actually read. ## Title Rules - Conventional-commit shape: `{type}({scope}): {summary}` or CCGM-style `#{issue}: {summary}` if the branch name carries an issue number - Under 72 characters total, including any prefix - Imperative mood (`add`, `extract`, `fix`), not past tense - Lead with the value or action, not the filename - If the repo uses `#{issue}:` prefix (check recent `git log --oneline -20` on main), match that convention Examples: | Bad | Good | |-----|------| | Updated pr.md and cpm.md to use new skill | #288: extract PR description writer as reusable skill | | Refactor commands-core | #288: move inline PR body generation into pr-description skill | | Big changes to review flow | feat(review): add scope-drift audit before specialist agents | ## Body Rules - Value-First The body leads with what the PR enables, fixes, or changes in the user's world. File churn is supporting evidence, not the lead. Write it in plain words: state what changed and why, active voice, short words. No achievement language — no "comprehensive", no "robust", no "seamless", no "Successfully". A reviewer should know what the PR does in one read. The full standard is `~/.claude/rules/writing-system.md` when the writing-system module is installed. ### Structure (when no PR template exists) 1. **Closes #N** - first line if the PR closes an issue. No other content on this line. 2. **One-sentence summary** - what this PR does, in user-facing terms. No filenames. 3. **Why** - what problem this solves or what capability it unlocks. Two sentences max. 4. **What changed** - bulleted list of concrete changes, each one a noun phrase with a verb: - "Adds `pr-description` skill under `commands-core`" - "Updates `/pr` to delegate body generation to the skill" - "Removes inline body template from `cpm.md`" 5. **Test plan** - how the change was verified. Name commands: `bash tests/test-modules.sh`, manual smoke test of `/pr` on a test issue, etc. 6. **Notes / follow-ups** - optional; only include if there is real carry-over work. ### When a PR Template Exists Fill the template's sections verbatim. Do not add sections the template does not include. Do not remove sections the template marks required. If a section in the template does not apply to this PR (e.g., "Screenshots" for a backend-only change), write `N/A - {one-line reason}` rather than leaving it blank. ### Value-First Rationalizations to Avoid | You are about to write... | The reality is... | |---------------------------|-------------------| | "This PR modifies `foo.ts` and `bar.ts`..." | Lead with what those modifications do for the user. File names are not value. | | "I refactored the review flow for cleanliness." | Cleanliness is not a user-visible outcome. What does the refactor enable? | | "Adds a new module." | Which module, what does it do, why does that matter? One sentence each. | | "Various improvements." | If you cannot name them, do not mention them. Delete the bullet. | | "Comprehensive error handling has been implemented..." | "Adds error handling to every API endpoint." State the change; drop the adjectives and the passive. | ## Output Format Return exactly this structure as the skill's output. The caller parses it. ``` ### TITLE {title, single line, no trailing punctuation} ### BODY {full body, markdown, starts with `Closes #N` line if applicable} ### METADATA - Issue: #{num} or "none" - Branch: {branch-name} - Commits: {count} - Files changed: {count} - Template used: {path} or "default" - Steering applied: {yes/no}; {one-line summary if yes} ``` Do NOT wrap in additional prose. Do NOT invoke `gh` commands with the result. Do NOT emit a "here's your PR body" preamble. ## Non-Goals - Creating the PR (`gh pr create`) - Editing an existing PR (`gh pr edit`) - Commenting on the PR - Pushing the branch - Running verification (tests, lint, build) - Deciding whether the PR is mergeable The caller handles all of the above. ## Integration With Callers ### `/pr` and `/cpm` Both commands currently write PR bodies inline. A caller that delegates to this skill should: 1. Gather context the skill needs (branch, issue number, template detection) if it already did that work 2. Pass `$ARGUMENTS` (steering text) straight through 3. Use the returned `TITLE` and `BODY` blocks as `--title` and `--body` args to `gh pr create` 4. Leave publishing, merging, and issue-closing to the caller's own flow This keeps the writer pure and the publisher in charge of side effects. ### Headless Mode When invoked by another skill or agent (not a human), behave as if `mode:headless`: - No clarifying questions - No asking the user to choose between drafts - Return the single best draft given the inputs available - If a required input is missing, emit a one-line `BLOCKED` note at the top of the output and stop ## Source Ported from EveryInc/compound-engineering's `skills/ce-pr-description/SKILL.md`. Adapted to CCGM voice, to match existing commands-core conventions (`{issue}: {description}` title prefix, `Closes #N` body line), and to slot into the skill-authoring rules (imperative voice, no AI attribution, value-first body, references file for the default template). ```` ### lib #### lib/gs-gather.sh ``` #!/usr/bin/env bash # gs-gather.sh - Parallel data gathering for /gs command # Runs git status, PR, and session checks concurrently.
