name	pr-creator
description	Creates professional draft PRs using project template with Conventional Commits titles. BLOCKS AI attribution. Use when creating or opening pull requests, pushing a branch for review, or preparing changes for merge. Make sure to use this skill whenever a pull request needs to be created — it enforces the project PR template, Conventional Commits titles, and blocks AI attribution footers that pollute the git history.

PR Creator

Creates professional pull requests — always as drafts, with proper templates and conventions.

Instructions

1. Gather Repository State

# Current branch
git branch --show-current

# Verify not on main/master
git branch --show-current | grep -E '^(main|master)$' && echo "ERROR: Cannot PR from main"

# Check remote tracking
git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{u} 2>/dev/null || echo "No upstream"

# Commits vs main
git log main..HEAD --oneline

# Changed files
git diff main..HEAD --stat

Block if:

• On main/master
• No commits ahead of main
• Uncommitted changes (warn, offer to commit first)

2. Analyze Changes

Determine type from files:

• feat — New functionality
• fix — Bug fixes
• docs — Only .md, docs/ changes
• refactor — Restructure, same behavior
• test — Test files only
• build — build.gradle.kts, Makefile, CI
• chore — Maintenance

Determine scope from paths:

• compiler — compiler/src/**
• fir / ir / generation — specific subdirectories
• gradle — gradle-plugin/**
• samples — samples/**

3. Generate PR Title

<type>[(scope)]: <description>

• Max 72 characters
• No trailing period
• Imperative mood

4. Populate PR Template

cat .github/pull_request_template.md

Fill template with analysis from step 2.

5. BLOCK Forbidden Patterns (CRITICAL)

MUST NEVER appear in PR title or description:

• "Generated with Claude Code" / "Generated by Claude"
• "Co-Authored-By: Claude" / any Co-authored-by:.*Anthropic
• Robot emoji + "Generated"

PRs must appear professional and human-authored.

6. Push and Create Draft PR

# Push branch
git push -u origin $(git branch --show-current)

# Create draft PR
gh pr create \
  --draft \
  --title "<title>" \
  --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
<populated template>
EOF
)"

7. Output

PR CREATED (Draft)

URL: {url}
Title: {title}

To mark ready: gh pr ready {number}
To view: gh pr view {number} --web
