Manages stacked PRs and splits multi-part work into reviewable branches with gh-stack. Use for stack creation, viewing, edits, push, submit, sync, rebase, merge, or checkout; when asked to split or isolate work for review; whenever a user mentions a stack, branch layers, dependent PRs, or gh stack; or when a stack is checked out.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# gh-stack `gh stack` is a [GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com/) extension for stacked branches and pull requests. A stack is an ordered chain of branches rooted on a trunk, where each branch has one PR based on the branch below it, so a reviewer sees only that layer's diff. `gh stack` prints a stack trunk-first, left to right: ``` (main) <- auth <- api <- frontend ``` Left is the **bottom**, right is the **top**. `auth` is based on `main` and merges first; `frontend` merges last. `up` moves toward the top, away from trunk; `down` moves toward it. Foundational work belongs at the bottom, code that depends on it above. For how to choose the layers, read `references/stack-design.md`. ## Setup Requires Git 2.36+ and an authenticated GitHub CLI. ```bash gh extension install github/gh-stack git config rerere.enabled true # remember conflict resolutions git config remote.pushDefault origin # required if the repo has more than one remote ``` ## Non-interactive use `gh stack` branches on whether **stdout is a TTY**. Piped, most commands error cleanly or print static text; under a PTY the same commands open a prompt or a full-screen TUI and block forever. …

How to install
mdr add molefrog/moi/gh-stack@sha256:909ca0dc20d644f8The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
