agent-instructions: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/pr-ship.md

pr-ship is a command for Claude Code from wbern/agent-instructions. It costs 15 tokens per session (807 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for sending small, obvious code changes straight to the main branch, the branch that usually holds the current project version. It checks the repository and recent history before shipping.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for typo fixes, formatting and documentation updates, obvious bug fixes, or dependency updates with passing tests.
Why use it?
It avoids a review step for low-risk changes while requiring tests, linting, and continuous integration to pass when available.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pr-ship scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Ship - Direct Merge to Main

General Guidelines

Output Style

  • Never explicitly mention TDD in code, comments, commits, PRs, or issues
  • Write natural, descriptive code without meta-commentary about the development process
  • The code should speak for itself - TDD is the process, not the product

Beads is available for task tracking. Use mcp__beads__* tools to manage issues (the user interacts via bd commands).

Plan File Restriction

NEVER create, read, or update plan.md files. Claude Code's internal planning files are disabled for this project. Use other methods to track implementation progress (e.g., comments, todo lists, or external tools).

Ship/Show/Ask Pattern - SHIP

Ship is for small, obvious changes that don't need code review. Examples:

  • Typo fixes
  • Formatting changes
  • Documentation updates
  • Obvious bug fixes
  • Dependency updates with passing tests

Prerequisites

Before shipping directly to main:

  1. All tests must pass
  2. Linter must pass
  3. Changes must be small and low-risk
  4. CI must be green (if configured)

Workflow

Current branch status: !git status

Recent commits: !git log --oneline -5

User arguments:

Ship: $ARGUMENTS

End of user arguments

Process:

  1. Verify Change Size: Check git diff to ensure changes are small and focused !git diff --stat main

  2. Run Tests: Ensure all tests pass !npm test or !yarn test or appropriate test command for the project

  3. Run Linter: Ensure code quality checks pass !npm run lint or !yarn lint or appropriate lint command (if available)

  4. Safety Check: Confirm with user that this is truly a ship-worthy change:

    • Is this a small, obvious change?
    • Do all tests pass?
    • Is CI green?

    If ANY of these are "no", suggest using /pr-show or /pr-ask instead.

  5. Merge to Main: If all checks pass and user confirms:

    git checkout main
    git pull origin main
    git merge --ff-only [feature-branch] || git merge [feature-branch]
    git push origin main

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
