name: git description: "GitHub and Git workflow helpers; triggers on 'create pr', 'pr checks', 'retrigger tests', 'bump version', 'push'."

Purpose

Model-neutral helper for GitHub and Git workflows including PR management, CI triggers, version bumping, and branch operations.

Triggers

Use when the user says: "create a pr", "check pr status", "retrigger tests", "toggle test label", "pr checks", "bump version", "push to remote".

How to use

Check PR Status

Copy# View PR checks
gh pr checks <PR_NUMBER> --repo <owner/repo>

# View PR details
gh pr view <PR_NUMBER> --repo <owner/repo>

Retrigger CI Tests

When a PR test fails and a fix is pushed, tests don't automatically re-run. Toggle the "TEST" label to trigger:

Copy# Remove and re-add TEST label to trigger CI
gh pr edit <PR_NUMBER> --repo <owner/repo> --remove-label "TEST"
sleep 2
gh pr edit <PR_NUMBER> --repo <owner/repo> --add-label "TEST"

Check CircleCI Pipeline Status

Copy# Get latest pipeline for a branch
curl -s -H "Circle-Token: $(cat ~/.circleci/cli.yml | grep token | awk '{print $2}')" \
  "https://circleci.com/api/v2/project/gh/<owner>/<repo>/pipeline?branch=<BRANCH>" \
  | jq '.items[0] | {number, state, created_at}'

# Get workflow status for a pipeline
curl -s -H "Circle-Token: $(cat ~/.circleci/cli.yml | grep token | awk '{print $2}')" \
  "https://circleci.com/api/v2/pipeline/<PIPELINE_ID>/workflow" \
  | jq '.items[] | {name, status}'

Poll CI Until Completion

Copy# Poll current branch (10 min timeout, 1 min interval)
# Update OWNER and REPO in the script first
.lisa/skills/git/scripts/poll-ci.sh

# Poll specific branch
.lisa/skills/git/scripts/poll-ci.sh feature-branch

Exit codes:

• 0 - CI passed
• 1 - CI failed
• 2 - CI canceled
• 3 - Timeout (10 minutes)
• 4 - CircleCI token not found
• 5 - No pipeline found for branch

Bump Version

Bump the semantic version in package.json before pushing:

Copy# Bump minor version (default): 1.2.3 → 1.3.0
lisa bump-version

# Bump patch version: 1.2.3 → 1.2.4
lisa bump-version patch

# Bump major version: 1.2.3 → 2.0.0
lisa bump-version major

Output (JSON to stdout):

Copy{
  "status": "ok",
  "bumpType": "minor",
  "oldVersion": "1.2.3",
  "newVersion": "1.3.0",
  "file": "/path/to/package.json"
}

Workflow: Push with Version Bump

When pushing changes to remote, bump the version first:

1. Bump version (default: minor):

   Copylisa bump-version
   

2. Commit the version bump:

   Copygit add package.json
   git commit -m "chore: bump version to $(node -p "require('./package.json').version")"
   

3. Push to remote:

   Copygit push
   

One-liner for bump + commit + push:

Copylisa bump-version && \
git add package.json && \
git commit -m "chore: bump version to $(node -p \"require('./package.json').version\")" && \
git push

Workflow: PR Created

When a Pull Request is created, follow these steps:

1. Create the PR with the TEST label:

   Copygh pr create --title "[TICKET-123] - Title" --body "..." --label "TEST"
   

2. Update Jira tickets to "Code Review" status (see jira skill)

3. Monitor CI - Check if tests pass:

   Copygh pr checks <PR_NUMBER> --repo <owner/repo>
   

Workflow: PR Test Failure

When CI tests fail on a PR:

1. Identify the failure - Check CircleCI logs or GitHub checks
2. Push a fix - Commit and push the fix to the branch
3. Retrigger tests - Toggle the TEST label:

   Copygh pr edit <PR_NUMBER> --repo <owner/repo> --remove-label "TEST" && \
   sleep 2 && \
   gh pr edit <PR_NUMBER> --repo <owner/repo> --add-label "TEST"
   

4. Monitor - Watch for the new pipeline to complete

I/O Contract (examples)

PR Checks

Copygh pr checks 1266
Run linter    pass    1m28s    https://github.com/...
ci/circleci   pass    5m12s    https://circleci.com/...

CircleCI Pipeline Status

Copy{
  "number": 6162,
  "state": "created",
  "created_at": "2026-01-13T17:27:10.963Z"
}

CircleCI Workflow Status

Copy{
  "name": "test",
  "status": "running"
}

Cross-model checklist

• Claude: Use concise commands; prefer gh CLI for GitHub operations
• Gemini: Explicit commands; avoid model-specific tokens

Notes

• Requires gh CLI authenticated with GitHub
• Requires CircleCI CLI/token for pipeline status
• TEST label triggers CI workflow via GitHub Actions/CircleCI integration
