A workflow guide for repository work that is expected to be delivered through a pull request, a proposed code change that others review before merging.

Use it when creating or updating pull requests, waiting for checks or preview deployments, validating previews, and preparing PR notifications.

It defines checks for branches, tests, previews, telemetry, and notifications so PR-based work follows the repository's rules.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00060	$0.01762
Opus 5.5	$0.00024	$0.00705
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00012	$0.00352
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00176

Security

Grade A, and why

pr-workflow 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 102 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PR Workflow

Follow this workflow whenever PR work is expected to ship through a pull request.

Project Guide

First read .agents/pr-workflow.md in the repository root when it exists.
Treat that file as the source of truth for project-specific details: GitHub repository, default branch, validation commands, required checks, preview URL rules, preview credentials, telemetry filters, and notification project name.
If the project guide is missing, discover the same facts from the repo, CI config, package manifests, and PR metadata. Ask the user only when a required project-specific fact cannot be discovered safely.

Worktree Setup

Never implement PR work directly on main or master.
Start by checking git status --short --branch in the current checkout and preserve unrelated user changes.
Classify the task before creating the branch:
- Use feat/<task-slug> for new functionality or behavior expansion.
- Use fix/<task-slug> for bug fixes or regressions.
Create the dedicated worktree next to the main checkout, under the same root directory:
- Main checkout: <root>/main
- Feature worktree: <root>/feat/<task-slug>
- Bug-fix worktree: <root>/fix/<task-slug>
Use the selected branch name and matching sibling worktree path, for example:

mkdir -p ../<branch-type>
git fetch origin main
git worktree add -b <branch-type>/<task-slug> ../<branch-type>/<task-slug> origin/main

Do all implementation, local verification, commits, and pushes from the worktree.
If a worktree or branch already exists for the task, inspect it and continue there instead of creating a conflicting branch.

Local Implementation

Follow the repo conventions and the validation commands listed in .agents/pr-workflow.md.
Add or update focused unit tests for changed logic when applicable.
Add or update e2e tests for changed user-facing flows when applicable. Use the project guide for required base URLs, credentials, and setup helpers.

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.
