generate-pr-description

generate-pr-description is a skill for Claude Code from kimgoetzke/coding-agent-configs. It costs 32 tokens per session (836 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for drafting a short description of a GitHub pull request, which is a proposed set of code changes for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when explicitly asked to describe a pull request or the changes on the current branch.
Why use it?
It turns the branch or pull request's actual changes and context into a concise explanation without posting it automatically.

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

generate-pr-description 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 104 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Generate PR description

Generate the PR description without wrapping it in a code fence. Never post or edit it unless authorised under 4. Decide whether to update the PR.

1. Establish the change

  • If given a PR number or URL, inspect its metadata, commits, and full diff.
  • Otherwise, inspect the PR associated with the current branch. If none exists, compare the current branch with the repository's default branch, including committed changes only.
  • Read enough surrounding code and documentation to understand behaviour rather than merely restating file changes.
  • Derive motivation from reliable context such as the PR, linked issue, commit messages, or repository documentation. Never invent motivation. If it remains unclear, ask one focused question before drafting.

2. Select content

What

Describe outcomes and observable behaviour, not the editing process.

  • Use 1–5 bullets; target at most 15 words each.
  • Keep one distinct change per bullet and group closely related implementation details.
  • Prefer product or user-facing behaviour over file names and implementation mechanics.
  • Include internal changes only when they are the substance of the PR or materially affect maintainers.
  • Omit tests, formatting, generated files, routine wiring, and incidental refactors from feature or fix PRs.
  • If the PR only changes tests, describe those test changes.
  • Do not claim behaviour unsupported by the diff.

Why

Write at most one extremely succinct sentence explaining the problem, need, or motivation. Do not repeat the What section.

Notes

Omit this section by default. Add it only when critical understanding requires one of:

  • stating that something was deliberately not done;
  • explaining why something was skipped;
  • providing essential context not suitable for What or Why.

Use no more than three succinct bullets. Do not add routine test, deployment, or implementation commentary.

3. Output

Use this exact structure, omitting ### Notes entirely when unnecessary:

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.
