SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Getting a pull request truly review-ready involves more than pushing code: the diff must be clean and validated, an independent reviewer must check it, and the human maintainer needs a clear written explanation. This Skill consolidates those PR readiness gates, review-pass procedures, and deliverable conventions into one operational reference.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • PR Readiness Gate: A checklist covering clean diffs (git diff --check), targeted tests, anatomy/skill-catalog updates in the same commit, and secret redaction.
  • Independent Review Passes: Procedures for read-only multi-model or daemon reviews (Claude Code, Codex) treated as gates, with guidance on classifying findings without scope creep.
  • HTML Explainer Conventions: Rules for writing self-contained, local-only HTML explainers with required sections (TL;DR, baseline, validation, risks, source index) and naming/timing conventions.
  • Authorization Boundaries: Explicit rules that opening, editing, or merging PRs requires per-action maintainer authorization, plus gh pr edit troubleshooting notes.
  • Use Case: Before asking a maintainer to merge a fix, run the readiness gate, obtain a read-only daemon review of the diff, write pr123-fix-login-explainer.html to an ignored artifacts path, and hand the maintainer the file path with a short pointer message.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to prepare the current branch's pull request for review by running the readiness gate, an independent read-only review pass, and writing a self-contained HTML explainer.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prepare a pull request for review before merging?

Run a readiness gate: check the diff with git diff --check, run targeted tests for the changed area, confirm no secrets or private paths are present, and write a self-contained HTML explainer. Then obtain at least one independent read-only review pass before asking for a merge.

How to get an independent code review of a diff with AI tools?

Generate a diff prompt and have a read-only daemon such as Claude Code or Codex, or a second model, review correctness, scope, and regressions. Save the review as an auditable artifact, then classify each finding yourself against the actual diff rather than trusting the summary.

What should a pull request explainer document contain?

A self-contained single HTML file with inline CSS and no remote assets, containing sections in order: TL;DR conclusion, baseline, what was done with diff snippets, validation commands and results, risks and decisions, next steps, and a source index. Routine explainers stay local and are not committed.

Why does gh pr edit show GraphQL deprecation warnings?

Some versions of the GitHub CLI emit GraphQL deprecation warnings when running gh pr edit; these are warnings, not failures. If gh pr edit --body-file is noisy, re-run it or set the body through the web UI instead.

Can an AI agent open or merge pull requests on its own?

No. Opening, editing, or merging PRs, pushing commits, and filing or closing issues are external side effects that require an explicit maintainer authorization for that specific action. Generating diffs, running read-only reviews, and writing local explainers are always permitted.
