When to Use

Use this skill when:

• Creating a pull request for any change
• Preparing a branch for submission
• Helping a contributor open a PR

Critical Rules

1. Every PR MUST link an approved issue — no exceptions
2. Every PR MUST have exactly one type:* label
3. Automated checks must pass before merge is possible
4. Blank PRs without issue linkage will be blocked by GitHub Actions

Workflow

1. Verify issue has `status:approved` label
2. Create branch: type/description (see Branch Naming below)
3. Implement changes with conventional commits
4. Run shellcheck on modified scripts
5. Open PR using the template
6. Add exactly one type:* label
7. Wait for automated checks to pass

Branch Naming

Branch names MUST match this regex:

^(feat|fix|chore|docs|style|refactor|perf|test|build|ci|revert)\/[a-z0-9._-]+$

Format: type/description — lowercase, no spaces, only a-z0-9._- in description.

PR Body Format

The PR template is at .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md. Every PR body MUST contain:

1. Linked Issue (REQUIRED)

Closes #<issue-number>

Valid keywords: Closes #N, Fixes #N, Resolves #N (case insensitive). The linked issue MUST have the status:approved label.

2. PR Type (REQUIRED)

Check exactly ONE in the template and add the matching label:

3. Summary

1-3 bullet points of what the PR does.

4. Changes Table

| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `path/to/file` | What changed |

5. Test Plan

- [x] Scripts run without errors: `shellcheck scripts/*.sh`
- [x] Manually tested the affected functionality
- [x] Skills load correctly in target agent

6. Contributor Checklist

All boxes must be checked:

• Linked an approved issue
• Added exactly one type:* label
• Ran shellcheck on modified scripts
• Skills tested in at least one agent
• Docs updated if behavior changed
• Conventional commit format
• No Co-Authored-By trailers

Automated Checks (all must pass)

Conventional Commits

Commit messages MUST match this regex:

^(build|chore|ci|docs|feat|fix|perf|refactor|revert|style|test)(\([a-z0-9\._-]+\))?!?: .+

Format: type(scope): description or type: description

• type — required, one of: build, chore, ci, docs, feat, fix, perf, refactor, revert, style, test
• (scope) — optional, lowercase with a-z0-9._-
• ! — optional, indicates breaking change
• description — required, starts after :

Type-to-label mapping:

Examples:

feat(scripts): add Codex support to setup.sh
fix(skills): correct topic key format in sdd-apply
docs(readme): update multi-model configuration guide
refactor(skills): extract shared persistence logic
chore(ci): add shellcheck to PR validation workflow
perf(scripts): reduce setup.sh execution time
style(skills): fix markdown formatting
test(scripts): add setup.sh integration tests
ci(workflows): add branch name validation
revert: undo broken setup change
feat!: redesign skill loading system

Commands

# Create branch
git checkout -b feat/my-feature main

# Run shellcheck before pushing
shellcheck scripts/*.sh

# Push and create PR
git push -u origin feat/my-feature
gh pr create --title "feat(scope): description" --body "Closes #N"

# Add type label to PR
