What it does

Update PR is an agent skill from remix-run/remix. Update an existing GitHub pull request title and description so they accurately describe the pull request as it exists now. Use when the user asks to update, rewrite, refresh, fix, or tighten a PR title/body, or when the PR scope has changed and the metadata needs to be brought back in sync.

Its SKILL.md is about 650 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: The fully-stacked web framework. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to update
  • Tighten a PR title/body
  • The PR scope has changed and the metadata needs to be brought back in sync

Example prompts

  • “/update-pr”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the current PR title/body and the current branch diff before drafting.
  2. Identify the PR's current net-new scope, APIs, behavior changes, and reviewer-relevant context.
  3. Rewrite the body from scratch so it describes the shipped feature/fix as it exists now.
  4. Review the title at the same time and update it whenever the body is updated.
  5. Apply the update with gh pr edit.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 27bd7a4. 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

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Update PR loads about 651 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 358 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~76
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~651

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.

Update PR

Overview

Rewrite pull request metadata as if drafting it from scratch for the current diff. Treat the title and body as a current reviewer-facing summary of the final net-new feature or bug fix in the PR, not as commentary about prior versions of the PR or the path taken to get there.

Workflow

  1. Read the current PR title/body and the current branch diff before drafting.
  2. Identify the PR's current net-new scope, APIs, behavior changes, and reviewer-relevant context.
  3. Rewrite the body from scratch so it describes the shipped feature/fix as it exists now.
  4. Review the title at the same time and update it whenever the body is updated.
  5. Apply the update with gh pr edit.

Rules

  • Never write the description as an update to itself. Do not say things like "this expands the original PR", "this PR now also", or similar process narration unless the user explicitly wants history called out.
  • Describe the net-new feature or bug fix, not the implementation journey. Do not call out intermediate cleanup, refactors, rewrites, or iteration details unless they are necessary to understand the final delivered behavior.
  • Always evaluate the title when updating a PR. If the scope or emphasis changed, rewrite the title too.
  • Write in terms of the present PR contents, using concise reviewer-facing language.
  • For feature PRs, focus the summary on what Remix gains: new packages, public APIs, behaviors, integrations, and documentation. Do not spend bullets on test additions, cleanup work, or internal restructuring unless those are themselves a meaningful part of the shipped feature.
  • For bug-fix PRs, focus the summary on the bug, the fix, and any user-visible behavior change. Do not narrate the debugging process or incidental refactors.
  • Keep the structure minimal: one short introductory paragraph plus flat bullets is usually enough.
  • Include usage examples when the PR introduces or materially changes a feature API.
  • Preserve still-relevant issue links or context, but drop stale framing.

Applying The Update

  • Draft the new title and body in a temporary file.
  • Use gh pr edit <number> --title "<title>" --body-file <file>.
  • Re-read the PR after editing to confirm the final title/body match the intended framing.
