What it does

GitHub PR is an agent skill from swamp-club/swamp. Create and manage GitHub pull requests. Supports both jujutsu (jj) and git version control. Use when submitting PRs, checking PR status, fixing review feedback, or merging PRs. Triggers on "submit pr", "create pr", "check pr", "fix review", "pr status", "merge pr".

Its SKILL.md is about 670 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/git.md` and `references/jujutsu.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests and Git workflow. It works with GitHub and Git. The repository describes itself as: Stinemates, Watson, Adam, Mahir, Paul.

When your agent uses it

  • Checking PR status
  • Fixing review feedback

Example prompts

  • “submit pr”
  • “create pr”
  • “check pr”
  • “/github-pr”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Get the review comments
  2. Enter plan mode to analyze the feedback and plan fixes
  3. Implement the fixes
  4. Push updates (see VCS reference for push commands)
  5. Re-request review if needed

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1ce4bbe. 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

GitHub PR loads about 671 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 221 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~671
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.2k

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 221 words (~671 tokens).

“First, determine which version control system is in use:”
