description	Package the current working changes into a standards-compliant codex-proxy pull request: branch hygiene, commit message linting, CHANGELOG prompt, conventional commit, push, and `gh pr create` against the `dev` branch. TRIGGER when: user asks to "push a PR", "open a PR", "create PR", "ship this", "推 PR", "开 PR", "提交 PR". DO NOT TRIGGER when: user only wants to commit without pushing; user explicitly wants to push directly to master/main; user wants to merge, rebase, or close an existing PR (use `gh pr merge` / `gh pr close` directly).

PR Push

Turn the current working tree into a clean PR targeting dev. This skill enforces codex-proxy's contribution rules so community maintainers do not have to memorize them.

Overview

Codex-proxy uses a dev → master promotion flow with strict commit conventions, CHANGELOG discipline, and a pre-push validation hook. This skill walks the maintainer through an interview, makes the commit, runs the push (letting the hook gate quality), and opens the PR. It explicitly stops before merge — review and merge are separate human decisions.

When to Use

• A maintainer has finished a unit of work in their working tree and wants it on dev.
• A maintainer asks to "open a PR" or equivalent and the working tree has changes (staged, unstaged, or untracked).

Important Rules

1. Target branch is always dev. Never open a PR against master or main unless the user explicitly states "target master" with a written reason. The master branch is fast-forwarded by the promote-dev-to-master.yml workflow — manual PRs to master break that contract.
2. Never commit on dev, master, or main directly. If git branch --show-current is one of these, stop and ask the user to name a feature branch (git switch -c <name>).
3. Never use git add -A, git add ., or git add -f. Stage files by explicit path. -f overrides .gitignore and has been the cause of secret leaks elsewhere.
4. Never pass --no-verify to git commit or git push. The hook is the gate. If it fails, fix the underlying issue, do not bypass.
5. Stop after gh pr create. Do not merge, do not approve, do not enable auto-merge. Pushing a PR and merging a PR are two human decisions.
6. CHANGELOG gate. If any file under src/, web/, packages/, native/, config/, or .github/workflows/ changed, CHANGELOG.md's [Unreleased] section MUST have a new entry covering the change before the commit is created.
7. Commit message format is fixed: <type>(<optional-scope>): <imperative summary>. The type set is enumerated in references/commit-conventions.md.

Key Workflows

Phase 1: Discovery (interview, do not touch the repo yet)

Goal: Understand what is being shipped before any git operation.

Run these read-only commands in parallel and summarize results back to the user:

git branch --show-current
git status --short
git diff --stat
git log --oneline -10

Then read the conventions:

Read: .claude/skills/pr-push/references/commit-conventions.md
Read: .claude/skills/pr-push/references/changelog-format.md
Read: .claude/skills/pr-push/references/pr-checklist.md

Ask the user (in one consolidated message) for any field that cannot be inferred:

• Commit type (feat / fix / refactor / docs / test / chore / perf / ci) — propose one based on the diff, ask for confirmation.
• One-line summary (imperative, lowercase, no trailing period) — propose one based on the diff.
• PR target — default dev. Confirm only if the user previously asked to deviate.
• CHANGELOG entry — if the gate in Important Rules #6 applies and CHANGELOG.md [Unreleased] has no matching entry, ask the user to dictate one (or offer to draft one for review). Do not invent silently.
• Memory / docs touch — if the change touches public protocol, request flow, auth lifecycle, or release infra, ask whether CLAUDE.md needs updating in the same PR.

Do NOT proceed to Phase 2 until the user has explicitly confirmed (a) commit type, (b) summary, (c) CHANGELOG status, (d) target = dev.

Phase 2: Branch hygiene

Goal: Make sure the commit lands on a feature branch, not on dev/master.

1. Check git branch --show-current.
2. If the current branch is dev, master, or main:
   • Stop. Ask the user to provide a feature branch name (suggest one derived from the commit summary, kebab-case, ≤40 chars).
   • Run git switch -c <name>. Do not auto-pick a name without confirmation.
3. If the current branch is a feature branch but is not based on up-to-date origin/dev:
   • Run git fetch origin dev.
   • If git merge-base --is-ancestor origin/dev HEAD is false (branch is behind), warn the user and ask whether to git rebase origin/dev before continuing. Do not rebase silently.

Phase 3: Stage + commit

Goal: Produce one well-formed commit.

1. List the files the user wants in this commit. If they didn't say, propose the list from git status --short and confirm.
2. Run git add <file1> <file2> ... with explicit paths. Never -A, ., or -f.
3. If CHANGELOG was updated as part of Phase 1, include CHANGELOG.md in the staged set.
4. Build the commit message:
   • First line: <type>(<scope>): <summary> — scope is optional, omit parentheses if no scope.
   • Body (optional): wrap at ~72 cols, explain why, reference issues with Closes #N / Refs #N if applicable.
5. Commit with a HEREDOC (preserves formatting):

   git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
   <type>(<scope>): <summary>
   
   <optional body>
   EOF
   )"
   

6. If the commit fails because of a pre-commit hook, fix the reported issue and create a NEW commit (do not --amend). Re-run the same command after fixes.

Phase 4: Push

Goal: Get the branch to origin so a PR can be opened.

1. Confirm the user wants to push (a single short "ready to push?" — they may have wanted to inspect the commit first).
2. Hook presence check. The repo's pre-push gate lives at .claude/hooks/pre-push-validate.sh, which is gitignored — fresh clones do not have it. Run test -x .claude/hooks/pre-push-validate.sh:
   • Hook present → push normally; the hook will run.
   • Hook missing → warn the user that no pre-push gate is installed, then run the equivalent checks inline based on what the diff touched, before pushing:

     Diff touches	Run
     src/** or tests/**	npm test and npx tsc --noEmit
     web/**	npm run build
     Dockerfile, docker-compose*	docker build . (or note user must verify)
     packages/electron/**, electron-builder.yml	npm run -w packages/electron build
     native/**	npm run -w native build
     Any failure aborts the push — fix and re-run.

3. Run git push -u origin HEAD.
4. If the push is blocked by the hook:
   • Read the hook output verbatim back to the user.
   • The hook validates the build targets affected by the diff (test, tsc, web build, Dockerfile lint, Electron config, native addon). Identify which target failed and propose a fix.
   • Never retry with --no-verify. Re-run the offending check locally, fix the root cause, amend the commit only if the user authorizes it, otherwise add a fix-up commit.

Phase 5: Open the PR

Goal: Create a PR against dev with a body that future reviewers can read cold.

1. Read the PR body template:

   Read: .claude/skills/pr-push/assets/pr-body-template.md
   

2. Determine PR title:
   • If the branch has a single commit, reuse the commit subject.
   • If multiple commits, propose a title that summarizes the branch's intent and confirm with user.
   • Title MUST start with a conventional type, MUST be ≤72 chars.
3. Fill the body sections (Summary / Test Plan / Notes). Source content from:
   • git log <base>..HEAD for the change list.
   • The CHANGELOG entry the user wrote.
   • Test commands actually run locally (do not invent test results).
4. Show the rendered title + body to the user. Wait for explicit "looks good" before invoking gh.
5. Create the PR:

   gh pr create --base dev --title "<title>" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
   <body>
   EOF
   )"
   

6. Print the PR URL.
7. STOP. Do not run gh pr merge, gh pr review --approve, gh pr edit --add-label, or --auto-merge unless the user issues a separate, explicit command.

Common Pitfalls

• Do not assume the user wants every modified file in the PR — ask.
• Do not auto-write the CHANGELOG entry without showing it for approval first.
• Do not retry a failing pre-push hook with --no-verify.
• Do not open the PR against master even if the user is on a branch named master-fix-X — branch name does not imply target.
• Do not silently rebase. If the branch needs rebase against origin/dev, ask first.
• Do not chain gh pr create with gh pr merge. Two separate decisions.
