name: accept-pr description: Land one PR end-to-end (changelog + thanks, lint, merge, back to main).

Accept PR

Input: PR number or URL (required). Default merge mode: rebase.

1. Guardrails

• Must end on main (or repo default branch if no main).
• git status -sb clean before/after. No uncommitted changes.
• If PR is draft, has conflicts, or base branch != main: stop + ask.
• If PR is from a fork and you can’t push: stop + ask.

1. Capture context

• START_BRANCH="$(git branch --show-current)"
• gh pr view <PR> --json number,title,author,baseRefName,headRefName,isDraft,mergeable,maintainerCanModify
• Skim: gh pr view <PR> --comments and gh pr diff <PR>

1. Checkout + suggested fixes

• gh pr checkout <PR>
• Apply fixes (and tests if needed). Keep edits minimal; follow repo conventions.
• Ensure change/feature/regression is well-tested. If no tests exist, do the manual checks the repo expects and note it.
• Commit with explicit paths (no git add .), then push: git push origin HEAD

1. Changelog (and thank contributor)

• Edit CHANGELOG.md (or project changelog file).
• Add entry under the top “Unreleased”/latest section (match existing style).
• Include PR + thanks, e.g.: - <short change> (#<num>) — thanks @<author>
• Commit + push changelog if it changed.

1. Lint

• Run repo linter/gate (prefer existing scripts; fix until green).
• If there’s no obvious lint target, search: rg -n "lint|biome|eslint|swiftlint|ruff" package.json Makefile scripts -S

1. Merge (then delete PR branch)

• Prefer rebase merge: gh pr merge <PR> --rebase --delete-branch
• If rebase is disallowed, fallback to repo preference (--merge or --squash).

1. Sync main + exit clean

• git checkout main || git checkout "$(git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD | sed 's@^refs/remotes/origin/@@')"
• git pull --ff-only
• Verify merged: gh pr view <PR> --json mergedAt,mergeCommit
• git status -sb (clean) + ensure you’re on main.
