Open a PR, write or rewrite a PR description, "the PR body is too long", or check whether a PR description is readable. Use whenever a PR is created or its body is edited.

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

# Skill: Open a PR

A PR body is read in thirty seconds, before the diff. It answers a few
questions and stops. Everything else lives in the commit messages, the spec,
and the report CI posts.

## The shape

`.github/pull_request_template.md`. Fill every heading; add none. Under ~250
words total.

```markdown
## What is this about?
One or two sentences, plain words: the surface and the change.

## What problem does it solve?
The pain a person felt or the risk we carried. Not the mechanism.

## What was the situation before?
What the person saw or could not do. Concrete enough to recognise in the
"before" screenshot.

## How is this implemented?
Two to five bullets for the reviewer: the main pieces that changed and how
they connect, so the diff reads in order. File paths, tool names, routes and
flags go here, not in the sections above.

## What else changed?
Anything in the diff that is not part of the main task: drive-by fixes,
refactors, renames, dependency bumps, test or tooling tweaks. One bullet
each, so the reviewer is not surprised by them. `none` if nothing.

## Release note
One sentence for people who use OpenWork, or `none`.

## Evidence

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add different-ai/openwork/open-a-pr@sha256:9392032e1cf27a60

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.ae4e3b8, 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.
