Drive GitHub pull request work end to end. Use when Codex is asked to open, update, describe, push to, monitor, review, address comments on, declare ready, or merge a PR. Covers branch hygiene, PR descriptions with why/what/testing/risk, CI checks, Codex review-loop monitoring, comment handling, and the final merge gate.

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

# Pull Request

Use this skill for the whole PR lifecycle, not only the moment of opening or merging.

## Runtime Setup

For Basic Memory Python tooling, use the project environment first:

```bash
source .venv/bin/activate
```

After activation, run Python scripts as `python ...`. For one-off commands where activation is awkward, prefer `./.venv/bin/python ...` or the repo's `uv run ...` patterns. Do not fall back to system `python`, `python3`, or global packages just because a command is missing.

## Flow

1. Inspect the live artifact first.
   - Use `gh pr view`, `gh issue view`, linked review comments, CI status, and current branch state before deciding what to change.
   - If the user links a specific PR discussion, inspect that exact discussion before broad edits.

2. Keep branch scope clean.
   - Base product-fix PRs on the intended remote base.
   - Avoid mixing workflow/skill/doc commits into unrelated product branches.
   - In `basic-memory`, prefer local branches in the main workspace unless the user asks for a worktree.

3. Implement and validate.
   - Read files fully before editing.
   - Make the smallest behaviorally complete change.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add basicmachines-co/basic-memory/pull-request@sha256:821afc162dc035ee

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260727.84e714e, 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.
