At a glance

Create high-quality Pull Requests with conventional commits and proper descriptions.

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests
  • SKILL.md covers When to Use, Critical Patterns, Code Examples and Commands, plus 3 more sections
  • Calls gh and git
  • Tasks that involve Commit messages

What it does

GitHub PR is an agent skill from Gentleman-Programming/Gentleman-Skills. Create high-quality Pull Requests with conventional commits and proper descriptions. Trigger: When creating PRs, writing PR descriptions, or using gh CLI for pull requests.

Its SKILL.md is about 880 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests and Commit messages. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Community-driven AI agent skills for Claude Code, OpenCode, and other AI assistants. Curated patterns and community contributions. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests
  • Tasks that involve Commit messages

Example prompts

  • “/github-pr”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c8036a3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • conventionalcommits.org
    • cli.github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

GitHub PR loads about 883 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 118 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~883

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

git commit -m "add user feature"

# PR 2: feat(api): add user endpoints
# PR 3: feat(ui): add user pages
Don't: Empty Descriptions
bash
# Bad
