Create Pull Request

Create a pull request with a well-structured description based on the branch changes.

Instructions

1. Gather Context

First, collect information about the changes:

# Get current branch and verify it's not main
git branch --show-current

# Get commit history for this branch
git log --oneline main..HEAD

# Get detailed commit messages for context
git log --format="### %s%n%n%b" main..HEAD

# Get file change statistics
git diff --stat main..HEAD

# Get the actual diff for understanding changes
git diff main..HEAD

2. Analyze the Changes

Based on the gathered information, determine:

• •What changed: Categorize changes (features, fixes, refactors, docs, tests)
• •Why it changed: Infer motivation from commit messages and code changes
• •Impact: Breaking changes, new dependencies, migrations needed
• •Testing: What tests were added/modified, how to verify manually

3. Check for Related Issues

Look for issue references:

• •In commit messages (e.g., "fixes #123", "closes #456")
• •In branch name (e.g., fix/issue-123-description)
• •In code comments or TODOs addressed

4. Generate PR Description

Create the PR using this template structure:

gh pr create --title "<type>(<scope>): <description>" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary

5. Title Format

Use conventional commit format for the PR title:

• •feat(scope): add new feature
• •fix(scope): correct bug behavior
• •refactor(scope): restructure without behavior change
• •docs(scope): update documentation
• •test(scope): add or modify tests
• •chore(scope): maintenance tasks

6. Apply Labels

After creating the PR, apply appropriate labels based on the changes. Use gh pr edit <number> --add-label <label>.

Check the repository's available labels first:

gh label list

Common Type Labels

Breaking Change Criteria

Only apply breaking-change for user-facing changes that require users to modify their:

• •Configuration files
• •CLI invocations
• •API integrations

Do NOT apply for internal refactors unless they affect external consumers.

7. After Creation

After creating the PR:

1. •Display the PR URL with applied labels
2. •Suggest adding reviewers if appropriate
3. •Note if any CI checks need to pass

Guidelines

DO:

• •Be specific about what changed and why
• •Include testing evidence
• •Link related issues
• •Note breaking changes prominently
• •Remove empty optional sections

DON'T:

• •Include irrelevant commits (keep PR focused)
• •Leave placeholder text in the description
• •Skip the testing section
• •Create PRs without running local checks first
