Bootstrap branch-context on an existing PR. Writes issue-brief.md from the linked issue(s) + current PR state, and backfills pr-decisions.md with decision-bearing entries from already-resolved review threads. Use when picking up a PR mid-flight (yours or someone else's) without prior local context.

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

# Adopt PR -- bootstrap branch-context on an existing PR

Populate `issue-brief.md` and `pr-decisions.md` for a worktree whose PR already
exists and has history.

## When to use

- You checked out an existing PR and the branch-context files are empty
  templates (or absent).
- You are picking up someone else's PR.
- Your own PR predates the branch-context setup and you want to backfill.

Do not use this for fresh work with no PR yet -- write the brief from the linked
issue directly.

## Startup

Bootstrapping presumes the linked issue describes a real problem. If you have
not confirmed that, skim the issue before adopting -- authorship (a bot,
contributor, or automated sweep) is not proof the problem is real.

1. Read `CLAUDE.md` for project context.
2. Instantiate the branch-context instances if they do not exist:
   ```bash
   cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"
   D=.claude/skills/branch-context
   [ -f "$D/issue-brief.md" ]   || cp "$D/issue-brief.template.md" "$D/issue-brief.md"
   [ -f "$D/pr-decisions.md" ]  || cp "$D/pr-decisions.template.md" "$D/pr-decisions.md"
   ```
   If `issue-brief.md` already has populated `issues:` frontmatter, ask via
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pydantic/pydantic-ai-harness/adopt-pr@sha256:e708373b60da889d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260724.e60b555, 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.
