/pr - Prepare and Submit Changes

Purpose

Commit changes to a feature branch, bump version if needed, update changelog, and open a PR.

Before Starting

• Check for uncommitted changes: git status --porcelain
• Ensure tests pass: make test or equivalent
• Confirm current branch (create one if on main)

Process

1. Create or verify feature branch

   If on main, create a branch from the work context:

   Copygit checkout -b <descriptive-branch-name>
   

2. Stage and commit changes

   Use the user's git identity (never sign as Claude, no Co-authored-by). Write conventional commit messages:

   • feat: add remote file sync
   • fix: resolve timeout on large files

3. Bump version if warranted

   • Bug fixes → patch
   • New features → minor
   • Breaking changes → major

   Update version in pyproject.toml (or equivalent).

4. Update CHANGELOG.md

   Use /changelog skill to generate entry if changes are user-facing.

5. Push and create PR

   Copygit push -u origin <branch>
   gh pr create --fill
   

   PR description should summarize changes. Link issues if referenced in commits.

Notes

• Don't add "Signed-off-by" or "Co-authored-by: Claude" trailers
• Ask before force-pushing
• If tests fail, stop and report
