Skill: GitHub PR & Git Management
Goal
Standardize how the Gemini CLI Bot stages its changes, generates Pull Request
descriptions, and manages the lifecycle of both new and existing PRs.
Staging & Patch Preparation (MANDATORY)
If you are proposing fixes and PR creation is enabled (per the System Directive):
- Surgical Changes: Only propose a single improvement or fix per PR.
- No Bundling: You are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN from bundling unrelated
changes. Changes are unrelated if they address different root causes.
- Examples: Do not combine a script fix with a documentation update, an
unrelated refactor, or a metrics script update. Metrics and fixes MUST
be in separate PRs.
- Generate PR Description: Use the
write_file tool to create
pr-description.md.
- Title: The very first line MUST be a concise, conventional title.
- Body: The rest should be the markdown body explaining the change, why
it is recommended, and the expected impact.
- Stage Fixes: You MUST explicitly stage your fixes using the
git add <files> command.
- Internal File Protection (CRITICAL): You are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN from
staging internal bot management files. If they are accidentally staged, you
MUST unstage them using
git reset <file>.
- NEVER STAGE:
pr-description.md, lessons-learned.md,
branch-name.txt, pr-comment.md, pr-number.txt, issue-comment.md, or
anything in history/.
Unblocking & PR Updates (Recovery)
If you are continuing work on an existing Task or responding to a comment on an
existing bot PR:
- Target Existing Branch: Use
write_file to generate branch-name.txt
containing the current branch name (e.g., bot/task-BT-01).
- Track PR ID: Use
write_file to generate pr-number.txt containing the
numeric PR ID.
- Respond to Maintainers:
- For general responses, write your markdown comment to
issue-comment.md.
- For specific PR feedback, write your markdown response to
pr-comment.md.
- Handle CI Failures: Diagnose failing checks using
gh run view. Your
priority must be generating a new patch and staging it with git add to fix
the failure.
