A procedure for merging an open pull request, which is a proposed code change awaiting review, into the repository's main branch. It waits for automated checks and uses a merge commit with administrator bypass.

Use it when asked to merge or ship a pull request. It identifies the relevant request, waits for CI checks, reports failures, and merges only an eligible request targeting the main branch.

It prevents unfinished or failing changes from being merged. It also handles this repository's requirement for merge commits and its review restriction.

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	$0.00070	$0.01061
Opus 5.5	$0.00028	$0.00424
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00014	$0.00212
Haiku 4.5	$0.00007	$0.00106

Security

Grade A, and why

merge-pr 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.

Merge PR

Standard end-of-PR landing flow for lukas-grigis/ralphctl.

Repo + branch-protection facts that shape this flow (verified via gh repo view / gh api .../branches/main/protection):

Only merge commits allowed — squash and rebase are off. gh pr merge --squash would 422.
deleteBranchOnMerge: true — branches auto-delete after merge. Do not pass --delete-branch.
main requires 1 approving review. Solo maintainer can't self-approve, so admin bypass is the standard tool here. enforce_admins is false, so the bypass is honored by the API.

Args

<pr-number> (optional) — when omitted, derive from the current branch via gh pr view --json number,....

Flow

Resolve the PR. If no number given:
```
gh pr view --json number,title,state,headRefName,baseRefName,mergeable
```
Bail if state != OPEN or baseRefName != main. Show the user title + headRefName so they see what they're about to land.
Watch CI. Block until checks finish:
```
gh pr checks <num> --watch --fail-fast
```
On failure: surface the failing check name + URL. Do not retry, do not merge. Hand back to the user — they decide whether to push a fix or close the PR.
Merge with admin bypass.
```
gh pr merge <num> --merge --admin
```
--admin is the load-bearing flag — it tells the GitHub API to use the caller's admin permissions to merge through the required-review rule.

Confirm. Print the merge commit SHA:

gh pr view <num> --json mergeCommit -q .mergeCommit.oid

Clean up the trailing branch. The remote branch is gone (deleteBranchOnMerge: true handled it), but the local copy and stale remote-tracking ref still linger. Switch back to main and delete them:

BRANCH="$(gh pr view <num> --json headRefName -q .headRefName)"
git checkout main
git pull --ff-only origin main           # fast-forward to the new merge commit
git fetch --prune                          # drop the stale `origin/<branch>` ref
git branch -D "$BRANCH" 2>/dev/null || true   # ok if it was never checked out locally

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.
