Use when a pull request is ready to merge — verifies CI and review status, syncs with the base branch, confirms with the user, then squash merges and cleans up. Trigger when the user says "merge this", "merge this PR", "squash merge", or "merge it". Works on any open PR — does not require /open-pr to have created it. If no PR exists, redirects to /open-pr. Does NOT deploy to any environment.

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

# Merge PR

Takes a ready PR and lands it: verify → sync → confirm → squash merge → cleanup.

**Announce at start:** "I'm using the merge-pr skill to merge this PR."

---

## Step 1: Identify the PR

Check for an open PR on the current branch, or use a user-specified PR number:

```bash
# Current branch
gh pr view --json number,title,url,state,baseRefName,headRefName 2>/dev/null

# Or if user specified #N:
gh pr view <N> --json number,title,url,state,baseRefName,headRefName
```

**No PR found:** Stop and redirect:
> "No open PR found on this branch. Use `/open-pr` to create one first."

**PR found:** Note the PR number, title, base branch, and URL. Continue.

---

## Step 2: Verify Readiness

Check CI status and review state:

```bash
gh pr checks <N>
gh pr view <N> --json reviews --jq '.reviews[] | select(.state == "CHANGES_REQUESTED")'
```

**CI failing:** Stop and report which checks are failing. Do not merge.
> "CI is failing on [check names]. Fix these before merging, or use `/open-pr` to address them."

**CHANGES_REQUESTED review:** Stop and report who requested changes.
> "PR has CHANGES_REQUESTED from [reviewer]. Resolve this before merging."

**All clear:** Continue.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add harnessprotocol/harness-kit/merge-pr@sha256:f940df5d55548466

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260317.c2bfa6c, 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.
