stacked-pr

stacked-pr is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OutThisLife/brooklyn-skills. It costs 47 tokens per session (281 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for managing dependent pull requests, where one change is built on another, and for applying the same change to more than one base branch. A pull request is a proposed code change awaiting review and merging.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to update a chain of related pull requests or port one change to both a default branch and a release branch. It helps preserve the order, bases, and matching code across the requests.
Why use it?
It prevents rebasing a dependent change onto the wrong branch and prevents release and default branches from receiving different versions of the same fix.

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

stacked-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 11d 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.

What it actually says

Stacked & Multi-base PRs

Stacked (dependent) PRs

A child PR builds on a parent PR's branch. Update the stack bottom-up:

  1. Update the parent branch/PR first.
  2. Rebase the child onto the updated parent — not onto the default branch, and never "merge main into the leaf" as the only step.
  3. Push each level; keep each PR's base pointing at the one below it.

Multi-base (release + default)

Some orgs require the same change on the default branch AND a release/production branch:

  1. Confirm the required target branches from the repo's rules.
  2. Land the change once, then cherry-pick/port the identical code to the other base as a second PR.
  3. Keep the two PRs' code identical; note the sibling in each description.

Don't

  • Collapse a stack by merging the default branch into the child.
  • Let the two base PRs drift apart.
  • Finish without listing every PR/MR in the stack as a link.

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.
