Update a GitHub pull request description based on the changes in the PR.
Arguments
/pr-description <PR_NUMBER> [--fixes <ISSUE_NUMBERS>]
PR_NUMBER(required): The pull request number to update--fixes(optional): Comma-separated issue numbers that this PR fixes (e.g.,--fixes 123,456)
Examples:
/pr-description 3534/pr-description 3534 --fixes 123/pr-description 3534 --fixes 123,456,789
Instructions
-
First, gather information about the PR:
- Use GitHub plugin to get PR details (title, current description, base branch)
- Use local git to get commits:
git log main..HEAD --oneline - Use local git to get the diff:
git diff main..HEAD - Parse any
--fixesargument for issue numbers
-
Check the existing PR description:
- If it already has a complete, accurate description that reflects the changes, do nothing
- If it's missing sections, incomplete, or outdated compared to the actual changes, proceed to update
- If it only has the template placeholder text, generate a full description
-
Analyze the changes:
- Understand the purpose of each commit
- Identify any breaking changes (API changes, removed features, behavior changes)
- Look for new features, bug fixes, refactoring, or documentation changes
- Collect issue numbers from:
- The
--fixesargument (if provided) - Commit messages (patterns like "Fixes #123", "Closes #456", "Resolves #789")
- The
-
Generate or update the PR description with these sections:
PR Description Format
Summary (always include)
Brief bullet points describing what changed and why. Focus on the purpose and impact, not implementation details.
## Summary
- Added X to enable Y
- Fixed bug where Z would happen
- Refactored W for better maintainability
Breaking Changes (include only if applicable)
Document any changes that affect existing users or APIs.
## Breaking Changes
- `ClassName.method()` now requires a `param` argument
- Removed deprecated `old_function()` - use `new_function()` instead
Testing (include when non-obvious)
How to verify the changes work. Skip for trivial changes.
## Testing
- Run `uv run pytest tests/test_feature.py` to verify the fix
- Example usage: `uv run examples/new_feature.py`
Fixes (include if issues are provided or found in commits)
List issues this PR fixes. GitHub will automatically close these issues when the PR is merged.
## Fixes
- Fixes #123
- Fixes #456
Note: Use "Fixes #X" format (not "Closes" or "Resolves") for consistency. Each issue should be on its own line with "Fixes" to ensure GitHub auto-closes them.
Guidelines
- Be concise - Reviewers should understand the PR in 30 seconds
- Focus on why - The diff shows what changed, explain why
- Skip empty sections - Only include sections that have content
- Use bullet points - Easier to scan than paragraphs
- Don't duplicate the diff - Avoid listing every file or line changed
Example Output
## Summary
- Added `/docstring` skill for documenting Python modules with Google-style docstrings
- Skill finds classes by name and handles conflicts when multiple matches exist
- Skips already-documented code to avoid unnecessary changes
## Testing
/docstring ClassName
## Fixes
- Fixes #123
Checklist
Before updating the PR:
- Verified existing description needs updating (not already complete)
- Summary accurately reflects the changes
- Breaking changes are clearly documented (if any)
- No unnecessary sections included
- Description is concise and scannable
