Record per-PR CEO approval and merge in one turn. ONLY on an explicit per-PR "approved" — never on umbrella "go".

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

Writing: read docs/skills/shared/writing-rule.md before you write a durable artifact.

# /approve-merge — Record CEO Approval and Merge

Write per-PR approval, then merge through the tracker adapter.
Rationale: read docs/skills/approve-merge-rationale.md for gate history and AgDR references.

## The one rule you must not break

Invoke only on explicit user approval for this PR. A plan-level "go" is not merge approval.
Stop and ask when the PR or intent is unclear. Only the human can invoke this skill (#1042).

## Menu path

The operator can also approve from one `AskUserQuestion` menu. Ask exactly `Approve and merge <owner>/<repo>#<N> at <40-hex-sha>?` with options `Approve and merge` and `Not yet` only. A hook writes the record; never write it yourself. See AgDR-0234.

## Process

### 0. Resolve the configured approver display title (SOFT, prose-only)

Before addressing the user in any confirmation question or report, read the configured display title for the human per-PR merge approver:

```bash
source "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/.claude/hooks/_lib-read-config.sh"
APPROVER_TITLE=$(config_get_or '.review_markers.human_approver_title' 'CEO')
```
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add me2resh/apexyard/approve-merge@sha256:0433d42152e799e9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.74bff5f, 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.
