Gh Create Pr

Create GitHub pull request(s) from the current branch. If this session touched multiple repos (check conversation context, plan issue, or ask the user), create a PR in each repo. Run steps 1-8 for each repo in sequence.

1. Check state: Run git status and git branch --show-current.
2. Prepare a branch:

• Always fetch the latest base branch (main/master) first.
• If the current branch is main/master, create a new branch off the freshly fetched base. Pick a short, descriptive branch name from the conversation context (e.g. resource-tags-docs). Move any uncommitted changes to the new branch.
• Otherwise, rebase the current branch onto the freshly fetched base. If there are conflicts, stop and ask the user to resolve them.

1. Handle uncommitted changes: If there are uncommitted changes on the (now non-master) branch, ask the user if they want to commit first. Do not proceed until the working tree is clean.
2. Push the branch: Push the current branch to remote with git push -u origin.
3. Gather context: Read the git log for all commits on this branch since it diverged from the base branch. If a plan issue was referenced in this conversation, read it for additional context. Check for a PR template at .github/pull_request_template.md or .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md in the repo. If one exists, use it as the structure for the PR description.
4. Create the PR: Use gh pr create with --title, --body, and --web (opens the browser with the PR pre-filled for editing). Do not use --edit (opens a terminal editor, unreliable).

• A concise title (under 70 characters)
• Body: for trivial PRs (single commit, simple change), a few plain-text sentences covering what, why, and how it was tested. For non-trivial PRs (multi-commit, multi-file, or complex changes), use three sections: ## What, ## Why, ## Tested. Use bullet lists when listing multiple changes or test steps. Keep each section concise; reviewers read the diff for details.
• Link to the plan issue only if it is in the same repo as the PR. Do not link to plan issues in other repos.
• Do not set reviewers or labels.
• Footer: Check for ~/.claude/skills/gh-create-pr/pr-footer.md. If it exists, append its content to the PR body, separated by ---. Replace {{model}} with the full model slug including version and variant (e.g. "Claude Opus 4.8", "GPT-5.6 Sol").

1. Post-creation: After the PR is created:

• If creating PRs across multiple repos, cross-link them in each PR description (e.g. "Related: owner/other-repo#N"). Do NOT cross-link from a public repo to a non-public repo.

Rules:

• Never create a PR without pushing the branch first.
• Keep the description concise. No empty boilerplate sections.
