-
Confirm the current branch with git branch --show-current.
If it is the default branch, create and switch to a new branch before doing anything else.
Use a descriptive branch name, preferably feat-<topic> or fix-<topic>.
-
Review local changes with git status --short.
Do not revert unrelated user changes.
Before creating the PR, ensure the intended changes are committed and never commit directly on the default branch.
-
If .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md exists, read it and follow its structure.
-
Draft the PR title in the repository's standard format. If the repository uses Conventional Commits, common patterns include:
feat(core): add ...fix(types): ...docs: ...refactor(types): ...chore(ci): ... for CI workflow, check, or release automation changeschore(deps): ...release: v1.2.0
-
Write the PR body in concise, clear English.
- In
Summary, explain the change context first: the user-facing problem, maintenance goal, or compatibility constraint that makes the change necessary.
- Prioritize high-signal information: public API changes, behavior changes, breaking changes, migration notes, and important compatibility implications.
- Then describe the main implementation change only as much as needed to understand the review.
- Keep it short: one compact paragraph or 2-4 bullets is usually enough.
- Avoid low-signal sections such as
Test plan or Validation, routine verification commands, generated file lists, or obvious implementation details unless the repository template explicitly requires them or the change has unusual validation risk.
- Good background examples:
This PR adds support for custom logger injection so CLI output can be isolated per instance.This PR fixes incorrect padding in URL labels to keep terminal output aligned across different label lengths.This PR updates the English docs to clarify how the extraction option works and when to enable it.
-
Fill Related Links with issue links, design docs, related PRs, or discussion pages.
If the PR upgrades an npm dependency, add a link to the upgraded version's release notes or tag page when available.
Example: https://github.com/web-infra-dev/rspack/releases/tag/v1.0.0
If there is no relevant link, omit the entire Related Links section from the PR body.
-
Push the branch only after re-checking the branch name. Never push the default branch directly.
-
Create the PR.
When running in Codex, use the Codex GitHub connector/plugin for GitHub operations.
Use gh pr create only as a fallback when the connector is unavailable.
