# PR Writer Create pull requests following Sentry's engineering practices. **Requires**: GitHub CLI (`gh`) authenticated and available. ## When to Use - You are ready to open a pull request and need a structured description based on the committed branch diff. - You want the PR body to capture what changed, why it changed, and any reviewer context. - You are using GitHub CLI and need a repeatable PR-writing workflow rather than writing the description ad hoc. ## Prerequisites Before creating a PR, ensure all changes are committed. If there are uncommitted changes, run the available `commit` skill first to commit them properly. ```bash # Check for uncommitted changes git status --porcelain ``` If the output shows any uncommitted changes (modified, added, or untracked files that should be included), invoke the available `commit` skill before proceeding. If the client requires qualified skill names, use the qualifier for the plugin that supplied this skill. ## Process ### Step 1: Verify Branch State ```bash # Detect the default branch — note the output for use in subsequent commands gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef --jq '.defaultBranchRef.name' ``` ```bash # Check current branch an

About this skill
What does the pr-writer skill do?

Create pull requests following Sentry's engineering practices.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill pr-writer --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
