Use when the user asks to write, draft, generate, or update a GitHub pull request description for the current branch. Reads the branch diff and commit messages, writes a structured PR body (summary, changes, testing), and optionally creates or updates the PR via the gh CLI.
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
# PR Description Writer
Read the current branch diff and write a complete GitHub pull request description. Create or update the PR with one command.
## Writing Style
Apply to all generated PR descriptions:
- Active voice. "Adds X" not "X has been added."
- Present tense for summary ("Adds caching layer"), past tense for context ("The old approach caused N requests per render")
- Short sentences, one idea per bullet
- No em dashes — use a comma or period instead
- No filler: "this PR", "this commit", "as per the discussion"
- Specifics beat generalities: "reduces p95 latency from 800ms to 90ms" beats "improves performance"

## Step 1: Check Setup
Confirm `gh` is authenticated:
```bash
gh auth status
```
If not authenticated: `gh auth login` and follow the prompts.
Confirm the current directory is a git repo with an active branch:
```bash
git branch --show-current
```
If detached HEAD or no branch, stop and ask the user which branch they want to describe.
---
## Step 2: Gather Diff Context
Run all three commands to build context:
**File summary (what changed):**
```bash
git diff main...HEAD --stat
```
**Commit messages (why it changed):**
```bash
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add varnan-tech/opendirectory/pr-description-writer@sha256:783baa22a4a6bc1bThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
