Produce a PR's squash record — the copy-ready body, posted as the `Proposed squash body:` comment, and the title, kept as the PR's own title. Owns the format, the draft→tighten discipline, where the draft is tracked, and when it must be re-synced. Invoke as `/squash-message [update-only]`.

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

**The squash title is the PR title.** GitHub's squash box prefills
`<PR title> (#<n>)`, so the record's title is kept on the PR itself, re-composed
on every run alongside the body, and the comment carries one block to copy: the
body. The exception is a PR of one commit, which the box titles by that commit's
subject under GitHub's default `COMMIT_OR_PR_TITLE` setting — Step 2 says when
that earns the comment a title block.

The operator copy-pastes this body verbatim into GitHub's squash box, so it
becomes the permanent `git log` record — and it has two readers. The operator,
at merge time; and, for as long as this code lives, agents reconstructing how
the codebase got this way, who read squash messages **first** and open diffs
only when the log doesn't answer them. So the body is a durable, high-level
record: what a reader should remember about this change without having to dig
into the diff.

That makes the target **altitude, not brevity**. It carries every substantive
change and the reason behind it; it doesn't carry the mechanics of getting
there. **A first draft reliably lands below that altitude** — too many words per
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vzakharov/muthur/squash-message@sha256:babef8bd06ea7a50

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.0345136, 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.
