pull-request

Automate the PR workflow: rebase onto the base branch, resolve conflicts, push, and create or update the pull request.

Prerequisites

Before starting, verify all of the following. If any check fails, stop and tell the user what needs to be fixed.

1. Git repository: Confirm the current directory is inside a git repository (git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree).
2. gh CLI authenticated: Run gh auth status. If not authenticated, tell the user to run gh auth login.
3. Not on the base branch: The current branch must not be main or master (or whatever the base branch is). Creating a PR from the base branch to itself is not allowed.
4. Working tree status: Run git status --porcelain. If there are uncommitted changes, ask the user how to handle them before proceeding:
   • Commit them first
   • Stash them
   • Abort the PR workflow

Workflow

Step 1: Detect Base Branch

Determine the base branch using this priority order:

1. If the user explicitly specified a base branch, use that.
2. Check if main exists as a remote branch: git ls-remote --heads origin main
3. Check if master exists as a remote branch: git ls-remote --heads origin master
4. Use the remote HEAD: git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD 2>/dev/null | sed 's@^refs/remotes/origin/@@'

If none of these resolve, ask the user to specify the base branch.

Step 2: Fetch Latest

git fetch origin

This ensures the local tracking refs are up to date before rebasing.

Step 3: Rebase onto Base Branch

git rebase origin/{base-branch}

If the rebase succeeds (exit code 0): proceed to Step 4.

If the rebase hits conflicts:

1. Identify conflicting files from git diff --name-only --diff-filter=U.
2. For each conflicting file, read the file and examine the conflict markers (<<<<<<<, =======, >>>>>>>).
3. Trivial conflicts (e.g., import ordering, adjacent edits): resolve automatically and run git add {file}.
4. Non-trivial conflicts (semantic or logic changes): show the conflict to the user and ask which resolution to apply.
5. After resolving all conflicts in a step: git rebase --continue.
6. Repeat until rebase finishes.

If the conflicts are too complex (more than 5 files with non-trivial conflicts, or the user asks to abort):

git rebase --abort

Report the situation and suggest alternatives (merge instead, or manually resolve).

Step 4: Push

Determine whether the branch already exists on the remote:

git ls-remote --heads origin $(git branch --show-current)

Branch exists on remote:

Before force-pushing, always confirm with the user. Explain that force-push rewrites remote history and could affect collaborators.

Never force-push to main or master. This is an absolute rule — refuse even if the user asks.

After user confirmation:

git push --force-with-lease

Always use --force-with-lease (never --force) to protect against overwriting others' work.

Branch is new (not on remote):

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

No confirmation needed for first push.

Step 5: Check for Existing PR

gh pr view --json number,title,body,url 2>/dev/null

If a PR already exists:

Ask the user:

• Update: Update the existing PR's title and description (go to Step 6, then use gh pr edit).
• Skip: Keep the existing PR as-is and just report the URL.

If no PR exists: proceed to Step 6 to create one.

Step 6: Generate PR Title and Description

Gather context for writing the PR description:

git log origin/{base-branch}..HEAD --oneline
git diff origin/{base-branch}...HEAD --stat
git diff origin/{base-branch}...HEAD

Read references/pr-description-template.md for the exact format to follow.

Locale detection (for description language):

1. If the user explicitly requested a language, use that.
2. Otherwise, look at the conversation language — if the user has been writing in Japanese, use Japanese (ja). If in English, use English (en).
3. Default: ja (Japanese).

Generate the PR title and description following the template. The content must be:

• Based only on actual changes (never fabricate or assume changes that don't exist in the diff)
• Concise but informative
• Using the correct locale

Step 7: Create or Update the PR

Creating a new PR:

gh pr create --base {base-branch} --title "{title}" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
{generated description}
EOF
)"

Updating an existing PR:

gh pr edit --title "{title}" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
{generated description}
EOF
)"

Before executing, show the user a preview of the title and description. Ask for confirmation or edits.

Step 8: Report Result

After the PR is created or updated:

1. Display the PR URL.
2. Summarize what was done:
   • Whether a rebase was performed (and if conflicts were resolved)
   • Whether it was a new PR or an update
   • The base branch used
