At a glance

Walks through opening a pull request in the Handsontable monorepo: branch naming, pre-flight checks, the PR template, draft creation and the PR-first changelog flow.

  • Works in 8 steps: Branch naming → Pre-flight checks → Fill the PR template → …
  • Opening or updating a pull request in the Handsontable monorepo
  • SKILL.md covers 1. Branch naming, 2. Pre-flight checks, 3. Fill the PR template and 4. Target branch, plus 5 more sections
  • Calls npm, gh and git; reaches cla.handsontable.com

What it does

The skill is loaded before any gh pr create or push of a feature, docs or fix branch. Branch names follow patterns for ClickUp tasks (a feature or docs prefix, the readable task ID and a short description), public GitHub issues and releases. The ClickUp ID must be the human-readable custom ID, never the internal hash, and it is fetched with a task lookup right after a task is created.

Before opening a PR the agent runs eslint, stylelint and the build for the handsontable package and fixes any failures. It fills the GitHub PR template: context, how the change was tested, related issues, affected projects and the checklist, which includes the CLA status check. Every PR targets develop and is created as a draft. The changelog file is named after the PR number, so the PR is created first and its number used in the changelog entry. If a push fails on SSH keys, a gh auth setup-git fallback pushes over HTTPS.

When your agent uses it

  • Opening or updating a pull request in the Handsontable monorepo
  • Naming a feature, docs or fix branch for a ClickUp task or GitHub issue
  • Pushing a finished branch and filling in the PR template
  • Adding the changelog entry that belongs to a pull request

Example prompts

  • “Push this branch and open a draft pull request against develop.”
  • “Name the branch for ClickUp task DEV-458 about clarifying the undo and redo docs.”
  • “Fill in the PR template for my fix and add the changelog entry afterwards.”

Requirements

  • The GitHub CLI (gh), authenticated
  • A checkout of the Handsontable repository

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Branch naming
  2. Pre-flight checks
  3. Fill the PR template
  4. Target branch
  5. Create the PR first (before the changelog)
  6. Changelog entry (after the PR is created)
  7. After PR creation
  8. Merge strategy

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 68b5e97. 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:

    • npm
    • gh
    • git

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • cla.handsontable.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

Handsontable Pull Request Workflow loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 154 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,216 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~154
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.1k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,216 words (~3,071 tokens).

“is the human-readable ClickUp custom ID, so ClickUp links the branch. Its prefix follows the task's space (SU-833, PRO-858): copy it from the task. Never use the internal hash ID (e.g. 86c9j4fxj`) in a branch name; it is not a…”
