What it does

Homerail PR Closeout is an agent skill from xiaotianfotos/homerail. Determine whether a GitHub pull request can leave Draft or is ready for its owner to merge, using immutable validation, review, CI, dependency, and approval evidence. Never merge a pull request.

Its SKILL.md is about 460 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. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Voice-first local agent orchestration runtime for auditable DAG workflows. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “/homerail-pr-closeout”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 916e343. 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

Homerail PR Closeout loads about 458 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 218 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~458

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.

HomeRail PR Closeout

Use the concrete pr-closeout orchestration after implementation and local validation are complete. Do not substitute a conversational checklist.

Safety Boundary

  • Never call a GitHub merge API or gh pr merge.
  • Never represent HomeRail approval as a GitHub approval or merge.
  • Never accept validation evidence whose head differs from the current PR head.
  • Never let a model override deterministic blockers.

Draft Closeout

For a Draft PR, use one of these paths:

  • Call run_pr_closeout with repo, integer pr, phase: draft, and durable validation_runs. Do not invent run ids.
  • Run hr dag run-template pr-closeout with explicit operator-attested local evidence bound to a commit SHA.

A successful result means only ready_for_review; the PR must still run normal GitHub CI and PR Review after leaving Draft.

Merge Closeout

For a non-Draft PR, call run_pr_closeout with durable validation_runs, especially the matching HomeRail PR Review run. Do not use generic create_and_run, shell, gh, or curl to reconstruct the snapshot. The workflow may pause at merge_approval. Return the real run id and the exact blocker list or pending approval hash. Only human:owner may decide that approval, and the user still merges manually.

After a terminal decision, consume the declared pr-closeout.json artifact with hr dag artifact <run-id> pr-closeout.json --output pr-closeout.json. Never reconstruct closeout evidence by scraping handoffs.

Read docs/scenarios/pr-closeout.md for the full evidence contract.
