update-pr
Skill0 starsChanged 31 days agoUnlicenseView on GitHub
Commits relevant changes, merges the remote base when needed, pushes the current pull-request branch, and refreshes stale PR metadata. Use when asked to update or push changes to an existing pull request, or when the user runs /update-pr.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
7 rules. 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 14 edited versions we read keep these.
5
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 14 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Update PR
Update the established PR through integration, relevant commits, a normal push and current metadata. The request includes resolving routine conflicts and running the declared PR gate; it does not authorize merging. Reuse the selected target and prior authorization. Ask only when the intended PR, a material conflict-resolution choice or another material choice within this update remains unclear.
When the current PR belongs to a native GitHub stack, read ../git-workflow/references/github-stacks.md. When PR media no longer shows the current behavior, or the change needs new media, refresh the affected parts using ../create-pr/references/walkthroughs.md; reuse media that still shows the current behavior. Media tooling gaps alone do not block the update.
- Apply
git-workflow. Inspect the current PR and its base branch, the branch, relevant local changes, recent commits and the fetched remote base asgit-workflowdefines it. Resolve a behind-base or conflicting branch before deciding whether missing CI needs any action. - Stop if on the base branch or no open PR exists; report the required next
workflow. Stop likewise when
git-workflowgives the PR no remote base. - When an ordinary branch is behind the remote base, merge it into the branch.
Preserve both sides' required behavior in additive conflicts; regenerate
generated files using the project's tool. Continue through validation when
the resolution is established. For a verified native stack, capture remote
heads and use the guarded
gh stack syncor narrower official stack operation; never use raw rebase or force-push commands. - Apply
/code-review fix-alland/test-against-spec fixto the changed behavior, including any baseline integration. Reuse only evidence whose content, command, environment and coverage still match; a baseline merge or edit invalidates the checks it affects. Run missing or invalidated checks. Repair every verified in-scope requirement gap through/implement's development loop, then establish the declared PR gate. A preview needed to test an unpublished fix permits its draft update; resume testing on that exact revision before claiming readiness. - When relevant changes exist, commit them under
git-workflow: stage only those files, use a concise Conventional Commit subject, and never amend or skip hooks. Run the publication guard at each commit, push and PR write. - When the branch has commits its remote lacks, push an ordinary branch normally, setting upstream when needed. Push a verified stack only through the guarded official stack workflow.
- Reconcile the PR title and body with the complete current diff, scope, linked issues, and observed verification. Keep the title a Conventional Commit subject for the whole change; it becomes the squash-merge commit subject, so widened scope may also change its type. Follow ../agent-writing/references/pr-descriptions.md, preserving explicit project-template requirements and replacing obsolete summaries or intermediate development history.
- Report the updated PR, any new commit, metadata changes, what the publication guard rewrote and observed validation. Include stack position and rewritten branches when applicable. Distinguish passed local checks from pending current-head CI. Return the exact current head and next transition to the active publication or delivery caller; that caller continues through CI and feedback. Report missing walkthrough requirements with remedies.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

DockerSkillreview-pr
Review one or more incoming Docker documentation pull requests as a maintainer. Independently validate technical claims, assess editorial fit and information architecture, choose a verdict, and draft exact inline or PR-wide feedback behind a confirmation gate. Use for requests such as "review PR 123", "is this PR correct?", "does this information belong here?", "validate this PR", or "help review backlog PRs". Do not use to maintain or fix a PR you own; use maintain-pr for that.
