describe_pr

To generate a pull request description from a template, this Skill reads your repository's pr_description.md structure, collects diff and commit metadata via gh, and outputs a complete narrative ready for code review.

Automating code review summaries involves gathering base branch details, commits, and verification results. This Skill compiles these elements into a structured PR description saved to thoughts/shared/prs/ for later use.

Generating PR descriptions requires the GitHub CLI to fetch metadata. It uses gh pr view and gh pr diff commands to assemble accurate diff and commit details for the final output.

You can use repository templates to structure pull request details. The Skill applies your pr_description.md format to organize PR purpose, changes, and verification steps consistently across the team.

Compiling git diffs and commit history into a ready-to-paste PR description is done by collecting data via gh pr diff and gh pr view, then formatting it according to your repository template into a markdown file.

Pull request descriptions may miss verification checks if optional checks are not read. This Skill integrates optional gh checks to assemble accurate details and ensure the verification status is included in the output.
