Gh Create Pr

GitHub PR Creation

Workflow

1. Read .github/pull_request_template.md before drafting the PR body.
2. Collect PR context from the current branch (base/head, scope, linked issues, testing status, breaking changes, release note content).
3. Check if the current branch has been pushed to remote. If not, push it first:
   • Default remote is origin, but ask the user if they want to use a different remote.

   bashCopy code
   git push -u <remote> <head-branch>
   

4. Determine the base branch:
   • Inspect the head branch before applying any default. If the head is release/v<version>, stop: never open a pull request from a release branch, especially not to main. Put an isolated fix on a topic branch and target the release branch, or let Post Release create the metadata sync branch.
   • Before defaulting an arbitrary topic branch to main, inspect its merge base and upstream. A product-code fix that started from release/v<version> must stop and be recreated from main as a hotfix; only a release-only repair or explicit backport recovery topic may target that exact release branch.
   • A backport/v<version>/pr-<number> head must target the matching release/v<version> base and its body must contain <!-- release-backport-source-pr: <number> --> on its own line for the exact source hotfix PR. A release-sync/v<version> head must target main, use the exact title chore(release): sync v<version> metadata, retain the release-metadata-boundary: v<version> body marker, and be squash-merged.
   • For official repo(CherryHQ/cherry-studio) as origin: default base is main from origin, but allow the user to explicitly indicate a base branch.
   • main is the active development line, including hotfix PRs. Do not target an old maintenance branch unless the user explicitly requests it.
   • Only classify a PR as a release hotfix when the user explicitly says it must be included in the active draft release. Use the title hotfix: <description> or hotfix(<kebab-case-scope>): <description> with a lowercase alphanumeric kebab-case scope, exactly one space after the colon, and a non-empty description. The title grammar synchronizes the hotfix label automatically. Merging opens a separate backport PR only when exactly one draft semantic-version release has a matching active release/v<version> branch; otherwise automation stops without guessing a target.
   • If the hotfix is user-facing, provide one release-note line in each language so automation can update the active draft and stable release history. Put this exact structure inside the template's existing release-note fence; do not include bullet prefixes:

     textCopy code
     <!--LANG:en-->
     [Component] English description.
     <!--LANG:zh-CN-->
     [组件] 中文说明。
     <!--LANG:END-->
     

   • If the hotfix has no user-facing release note, keep NONE in the template's release-note fence. The code is still backported, but release metadata is unchanged. A provided bilingual block must satisfy the exact structure above.
   • For fork repo as origin: check available remotes with git remote -v, default base may be upstream/main or another remote. Always assume that user wants to merge head to CherryHQ/cherry-studio/main, unless the user explicitly indicates a base branch.
   • Ask the user to confirm the base branch if it's not the default.
5. Create a temp file and write the PR body using a single Bash heredoc (avoids mktemp + Write tool path-mismatch on Windows):

   bashCopy code
   pr_body_file="/tmp/gh-pr-body-$(date +%s).md"
   cat > "$pr_body_file" <<'EOF'
   ...filled template body...
   EOF
   

   Fill content using the template structure exactly (keep section order, headings, checkbox formatting). If not applicable, write N/A or None.
6. Preview the temp file content via Bash cat "$pr_body_file" (the Read tool can fail on /tmp/... paths on Windows). Show the file path and ask for explicit confirmation before creating. Skip if the user explicitly waives preview (automation workflows).
7. After confirmation, create the PR:

   bashCopy code
   gh pr create --base <base> --head <head> --title "<title>" --body-file "$pr_body_file"
   

   For a release hotfix, use an exact classifier-compatible title so the workflow synchronizes the label and separately validates any provided bilingual note:

   bashCopy code
   gh pr create --base main --head <head> --title "hotfix: <description>" --body-file "$pr_body_file"
   

   After creation, verify that the classifier added hotfix; if it did not, fix the title instead of adding the label manually. Also fix any malformed optional release-note block reported by the workflow.
8. Clean up the temp file: rm -f "$pr_body_file"
9. Report the created PR URL and summarize title/base/head and any required follow-up.

Constraints

• Never skip template sections.

• Never rewrite the template format.

• Keep content concise and specific to the current change set.

• PR title and body must be written in English.

• Never use a hotfix title or label for an ordinary bug fix. It opts the PR into an automatic backport PR after merge when one matching draft release is active.

• A release hotfix may use NONE when it has no user-facing release note. Never provide a partial, single-language, or otherwise malformed bilingual note; the backport workflow fails closed on malformed content.

• Never default a release/v<version> head to main; a release branch is not a pull request source branch.

• Never create the PR before showing the full final body to the user, unless they explicitly waive the preview or confirmation.

• Never rely on command permission prompts as PR body preview.

• Release note & Documentation checkbox — both are driven by whether the change is user-facing. Use the table below:

  Change type	Release note	Docs [x]
  New user-facing feature / setting / UI	Describe the change	✅
  Bug fix visible to users	Describe the fix	✅ if behavior changed
  Behavior change / default value change	Describe + action required	✅
  Security fix in a user-facing dependency	Describe the fix	✅ if usage changed
  CI / GitHub Actions changes	NONE	❌
  Internal refactoring (user cannot tell)	NONE	❌
  Dev / build tooling changes	NONE	❌
  Dev-only dependency bump	NONE	❌
  Test-only / code style changes	NONE	❌

Command Pattern

bashCopy code
# read template
cat .github/pull_request_template.md

# show this full Markdown body in chat first
pr_body_file="/tmp/gh-pr-body-$(date +%s).md"
cat > "$pr_body_file" <<'EOF'
...filled template body...
EOF
cat "$pr_body_file"

# run only after explicit user confirmation
gh pr create --base <base> --head <head> --title "<title>" --body-file "$pr_body_file"
rm -f "$pr_body_file"
