At a glance

Push the current ZenUML web-sequence branch, create or reuse a GitHub PR against master, then always run babysit-pr until CI is green or blocked.

  • Works in 4 steps: Commit Scoped Changes If Needed → Push The Branch → Reuse Or Create PR → …
  • The user says submit
  • SKILL.md covers Flow, Preconditions, Steps and PR Body Guidance, plus 2 more sections
  • Calls git and gh

What it does

Submit Branch is an agent skill from ZenUml/web-sequence. Push the current ZenUML web-sequence branch, create or reuse a GitHub PR against master, then always run babysit-pr until CI is green or blocked. Use when the user says "submit", "create PR", "open a pull request", "push and PR", or wants to publish branch work without merging. Does not merge — use land-pr after babysit passes.

Its SKILL.md is about 770 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 and Diagrams. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Realtime tool for generating sequence diagrams. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says submit
  • Open a pull request
  • Wants to publish branch work without merging

Example prompts

  • “submit”
  • “create PR”
  • “open a pull request”
  • “/submit-branch”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Commit Scoped Changes If Needed
  2. Push The Branch
  3. Reuse Or Create PR
  4. Babysit CI (mandatory)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e38bd91. 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:

    • git
    • gh

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and 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

Submit Branch loads about 765 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 314 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~765

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.

description
Push the current ZenUML web-sequence branch, create or reuse a GitHub PR against master, then always run babysit-pr until CI is green or blocked. Use when the user says "submit", "create PR", "open a pull request", "push and PR", or wants to publish branch work without merging. Does not merge — use land-pr after babysit passes.

Submit Branch

Publish the current branch as a PR for ZenUml/web-sequence, then always babysit CI on that PR.

Flow

text
commit (if needed) → push → create or reuse PR → babysit-pr

Stop at the first failing step. Do not merge.

Preconditions

Run:

bash
git status --short --branch
git remote -v

Only proceed when modified files are clearly in scope for the branch. If the worktree mixes unrelated changes, ask which files to include. Never auto-commit unrelated files.

Steps

1. Commit Scoped Changes If Needed

If there are scoped uncommitted changes, stage only those files and commit with a concise message:

bash
git add <specific-files>
git commit -m "<type>: <summary>"

Do not amend or force-push unless the user explicitly asks.

2. Push The Branch
bash
git branch --show-current
git push -u origin <branch>

If push is rejected, stop and report the reason. Do not force-push.

3. Reuse Or Create PR

Check for an existing PR:

bash
gh pr view --json number,title,url,state,isDraft,headRefName

If no PR exists, create one against master:

bash
gh pr create --base master --title "<concise title>" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- ...

## Test plan
- ...
EOF
)"

If a PR already exists, note its number and URL — do not create a duplicate.

Use Draft only if the user asks or if the branch is intentionally not ready. This repo does not have a documented draft gate that skips expensive PR E2E.

4. Babysit CI (mandatory)

Always invoke the babysit-pr skill on the PR from Step 3 (new or reused).

  • Pass the PR number explicitly if you have it.
  • Let babysit watch Deploy to Stage, diagnose failures, fix code-caused issues (up to its retry budget), and report final status.
  • If babysit ends FAILED or BLOCKED, stop here — do not merge. Tell the user what failed and whether a fix was pushed.
  • If babysit ends PASSED or checks are still PENDING with babysit still watching, report that state; do not call land-pr unless the user asked to ship/merge.

PR Body Guidance

Mention:

  • User-facing behavior changed
  • Build/config/deploy files changed
  • Validation actually run
  • Known skipped checks or environment blockers

Output

Report:

text
Submitted: PR #<number> <url>
Branch: <branch>
Base: master
Validation included: <yes/no, summary>
Babysit: PASSED|FAILED|PENDING|BLOCKED — <summary>
Notes: <draft state, skipped checks, unrelated local files>

Does Not

  • Run full validation by default; use validate-branch before submit when the branch needs local preflight.
  • Merge; use land-pr after babysit is green and the user wants to land.
