SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the final step of development work by turning local code changes into a clean commit, a pushed branch, and a ready Pull Request without manually piecing together the Git workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Branch Safety Checks: Detects when work is being done on main or master and redirects the flow toward creating a feature branch first.
  • Single-Commit Delivery Flow: Guides the user to bundle staged and unstaged changes into one appropriately labeled commit with a concise message.
  • Pull Request Creation: Pushes the branch and creates a GitHub Pull Request through gh, with a fallback path when gh is unavailable.
  • Use Case: After finishing a documentation fix or feature update, use this Skill to package the current workspace changes, publish the branch, and open a PR for review in one pass.

Quick Start

Use the commit-and-pr skill to review the current Git changes, create one well-named commit, push the branch, and open a Pull Request.

FAQPage Schema
How do I commit local changes, push a branch, and open a GitHub Pull Request in one step?▼

To commit changes and open a pull request, this workflow inspects your Git status, validates the branch, bundles staged and unstaged changes into a single commit, pushes the branch to the remote, and creates a GitHub Pull Request.

Can I create a GitHub Pull Request if the gh command line tool is not installed?▼

Yes, you can create a GitHub Pull Request through the primary gh CLI path, which includes a fallback mechanism to handle environments where the gh tool is unavailable.

Does this workflow protect against accidentally committing changes directly to the main branch?▼

Yes, this workflow includes branch safety checks that detect when you are working on main or master and redirects the flow to create a feature branch before committing.

How does the commit message generation work for bundled staged and unstaged changes?▼

The commit message generation works by classifying your Git changes and guiding you to label the single commit with a concise, appropriately categorized message.

What happens if I try to commit changes to protected files in my repository?▼

When committing changes, the workflow applies protected-file caution to identify sensitive files and prevent accidental inclusion in your Git commit and subsequent pull request.
