Create Pull Request

Create pull requests with conventional commit-style titles using the

gh

CLI. Never add co-author labels.

Title Format

<type>(<scope>): <subject>

Same types and scopes as conventional commits — see

/commit

skill for the full list.

Keep titles under 72 characters. Use the description for details, not the title.

Rules

1. No co-author labels — never add

   Co-Authored-By

   lines anywhere
2. Title follows conventional commit format: imperative mood, lowercase, no period
3. Description uses the structured template below
4. Always push the branch before creating the PR
5. Base branch defaults to

   master

   unless specified otherwise

Steps

1. Check the current branch and understand the scope of changes:

   git branch --show-current
   git status
   git log --oneline master..HEAD
   git diff master...HEAD --stat
   

2. If on

   master

   — you cannot push directly. Create a new branch first:

   git checkout -b <type>/<short-description>
   

   Branch naming:

   feat/add-report-notifications

   ,

   fix/cron-duplicate

   ,

   chore/bump-ui-kit

   , etc. If there are uncommitted changes, they will carry over to the new branch.

3. If the branch has not been pushed yet:

   git push -u origin HEAD
   

4. Analyze all commits on the branch (not just the latest) to draft the title and summary

5. Create the PR using a HEREDOC for the body:

   gh pr create --title "type(scope): subject line here" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
   ## Summary
   - Brief bullet points explaining the changes
   
   ## Test plan
   - [ ] How to verify these changes work
   EOF
   )"
   

6. Return the PR URL to the user

Description Template

## Summary
- 1-3 bullet points describing what changed and why

## Test plan
- [ ] Steps or checks to verify the changes

Keep it concise. No fluff, no emojis, no generated-by footers.

Examples

Title examples:

feat(console-ui): add scheduled report notifications
fix(console-server): prevent duplicate cron triggers
refactor(cloud-router): extract auth middleware into module
chore: bump ui-kit to v0.15.0 across packages
fix(ai-engineer): handle streaming timeout on large contexts

Full example:

gh pr create --title "feat(console-ui): add scheduled report notifications" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- Add email and Slack notifications for scheduled report runs
- Support configurable notification channels per report
- Handle delivery failures with retry logic

## Test plan
- [ ] Create a scheduled report and verify notification is sent
- [ ] Test failure retry by simulating a delivery error
- [ ] Verify notification preferences persist across sessions
EOF
