FAQPage Schema
How do I prepare a branch for a Paperclip PR?▼

Use the prepare-paperclip-pr skill to ensure your branch is rebased on master, commits are properly formatted, and all guardrails like file limits and migration safety are met.

What should I do if my PR exceeds the Greptile file limit?▼

The repository requires PRs to be under 100 changed files. If you exceed this limit, split your work into multiple smaller, logical pull requests.

Can I merge my own pull request?▼

No, you must never merge your own pull request. The procedure requires running the review loops and waiting for external verification and approval.

How do I handle migrations in my PR?▼

Migrations must be numbered incrementally and be idempotent. If master has moved, renumber your migrations on top of the current master to avoid conflicts.

Why should I use a git worktree for PR work?▼

Using a git worktree keeps your main checkout, which typically runs the live Paperclip server, safe from branch switching and potential work loss.
