Summary

New skills were being planned ad hoc, with no shared process and no version-controlled record of why a given skill was built the way it was. This adds OpenSpec as the repo's spec-driven planning workflow for new skills, and uses it end-to-end to build the first real skill under that process: open-pr, replacing a personal, machine-local PR-creation command with a proper repo-committed agent skill.

OpenSpec setup

  • Initialize OpenSpec for Claude Code (openspec init --tools claude), adding the /opsx:propose, /opsx:apply, /opsx:archive, /opsx:explore, /opsx:sync commands and their corresponding skills under .claude/.
  • Add openspec/specs/ and openspec/changes/archive/ scaffolding.

open-pr skill — planned and built through OpenSpec

  • openspec/changes/open-pr-skill/proposal.md, design.md, specs/pr-creation/spec.md, tasks.md — the full planning trail: why the personal command is being replaced, the key design decisions (skill location, dual invocation with a confirmation guard, content carryover), and testable WHEN/THEN requirements.
  • .claude/skills/open-pr/SKILL.md — the implemented skill. Gathers PR context from the branch's own commits/diff rather than assumed conversation context, runs pre-flight checks (existing PR, real label set, base branch, changelog requirement), and applies labels and assignee in the same gh pr create/gh pr edit call rather than as a separate step that can be skipped. Adds a CHANGELOG.md entry only after the PR exists, linking back to it. Works via the explicit /open-pr command and via natural-language requests (e.g. "create the PR for me"), with a guard requiring branch/base confirmation before acting on an implicit trigger.
  • The skill deliberately lives at .claude/skills/ rather than this repo's usual .agents/skills/ portable-skill location, since it needs native Claude Code slash-command registration and natural-language auto-invocation, which Claude Code does not provide for .agents/skills/. Documented inline in the skill file and in design.md (Decision 1) so it isn't mistaken for an oversight of AGENTS.md rule 11.

Housekeeping

  • Gitignore .claude/settings.local.json (personal, machine-local Claude Code permission grants) — this file is not meant to be shared and was about to be committed by accident.

Investigated, not changed

  • Considered placing the open-pr skill under .agents/skills/ for consistency with this repo's stated portable-skill convention. Rejected: Claude Code only auto-discovers and slash-command-registers skills from .claude/skills/, and this skill has no near-term need for cross-tool portability (it's a gh-CLI-specific workflow, not a shared WordPress convention). Full rationale in openspec/changes/open-pr-skill/design.md.

Test plan

  • openspec validate open-pr-skillChange 'open-pr-skill' is valid
  • Cross-checked all 6 requirements in specs/pr-creation/spec.md against the shipped SKILL.md body — all represented
  • Confirmed .claude/settings.local.json is excluded via git check-ignore -v
  • This PR was itself created using the new /open-pr-equivalent skill (natural-language invocation, branch/base confirmed per the implicit-trigger guard) — a live, real-world test of task 4.1/4.2 in tasks.md
  • Verify natural-language re-invocation on an existing PR (the gh pr edit --add-label/--add-assignee path) — not yet exercised, since this PR didn't previously exist
  • Archive openspec/changes/open-pr-skill/ via /opsx:archive after this PR is reviewed

LS-3223

Closes LS-3223.

Review details

Suppressed comments (9)

.claude/commands/opsx/archive.md:65

  • The prompt includes Cancel as an option when specs are already synced, but this sentence says to proceed to archive regardless of the choice. A user who cancels can therefore still have the change moved into the archive. Handle Cancel as a stop and only continue for the two archive choices.
   If user chooses sync, use Task tool (subagent_type: "general-purpose", prompt: "Use Skill tool to invoke openspec-sync-specs for change '<name>'. Delta spec analysis: <include the analyzed delta spec summary>"). Proceed to archive regardless of choice.

.claude/commands/opsx/propose.md:19

  • This input contract accepts a free-form description, but the command then passes <name> straight to openspec new change without deriving a kebab-case name. A request such as add user authentication can therefore be rejected or create an invalid change name; add the derivation/ambiguity check here before step 2, as the paired skill already describes.
**Input**: The argument after `/opsx:propose` is the change name (kebab-case), OR a description of what the user wants to build.

.claude/skills/open-pr/SKILL.md:61

  • This condition checks only whether the repository requires a changelog, not whether this branch already contains the required PR-linked entry. Re-running the skill for an existing PR after the first invocation will append and push a duplicate entry; gate this step on the current branch lacking that entry.
If Step 2.6 found this repo requires a changelog entry, add it now — only after the PR exists, never before:

.claude/skills/open-pr/SKILL.md:63

  • On the existing-PR path, no gh pr create output exists, so this step cannot provide the URL/number needed for a required changelog link. Use the existing PR returned by gh pr list or gh pr view when updating instead.
1. Take the PR URL and/or number from the `gh pr create` output in the previous step.

.claude/skills/open-pr/SKILL.md:81

  • This absolute prohibition conflicts with the spec's no-fit-label scenario: when gh label list has no accurate label, the skill must proceed without --label; requiring it here forces the agent either to invent a label or abort. Make the label flag conditional while keeping --assignee mandatory, and update the identical wording in the earlier creation section.
- Don't run `gh pr create` without `--label` and `--assignee` already in that same command.

.claude/skills/open-pr/SKILL.md:34

  • gh label list has a default result limit, so this does not guarantee the “full current label set” required by the next step; this repository currently has 91 labels, and a valid match can be omitted before the agent chooses labels. Use an explicit high --limit (or paginate) here.
4. Check `gh label list` for the full current label set — never invent a label that doesn't exist in the repo.

.claude/skills/openspec-archive-change/SKILL.md:69

  • The prompt includes Cancel as an option when specs are already synced, but this sentence says to proceed to archive regardless of the choice. A user who cancels can therefore still have the change moved into the archive. Handle Cancel as a stop and only continue for the two archive choices.
   If user chooses sync, use Task tool (subagent_type: "general-purpose", prompt: "Use Skill tool to invoke openspec-sync-specs for change '<name>'. Delta spec analysis: <include the analyzed delta spec summary>"). Proceed to archive regardless of choice.

openspec/changes/open-pr-skill/proposal.md:3

  • The proposal describes OpenSpec as the required planning process for new skills, but the repository's canonical guidance (AGENTS.md) is not updated to require or even point contributors to this workflow. Without that documentation, future agents can still follow the old ad-hoc process. Add the rule to the contributor/agent guidance or scope this claim explicitly.
PR creation currently relies on a personal, machine-local slash command (`~/.claude/commands/open-pr.md`) that isn't shared with the team, isn't discoverable by other agent tools, and has already shown a real failure mode: agents running it have skipped the labels/assignee step because it lived as trailing sections after the main "create the PR" action instead of being structurally part of it. LS-3223 also establishes OpenSpec as the required planning process for new skills going forward, and this is the first skill being planned through it — both problems are solved by converting `open-pr` into a proper, repo-committed agent skill with a spec-reviewed design instead of a hand-written command file.

openspec/changes/open-pr-skill/tasks.md:19

  • The PR description says this PR was created through the natural-language path with the branch/base confirmation, which exercises task 4.2, but the OpenSpec task remains unchecked. Mark 4.2 complete if that verification claim is accurate, while leaving 4.1 pending unless the literal /open-pr path was also exercised.
- [ ] 4.2 Trigger the skill with a natural-language prompt (e.g. "create the PR for me") and confirm the branch/base confirmation guard fires before any `gh pr create` call.

- Dynamic instruction based on current state

**Handle states:**
- If `state: "blocked"` (missing artifacts): show message, suggest using `/opsx:continue`

Create a pull request for the current branch, following this repo's established conventions exactly. This skill only creates/updates a PR — it does not create branches, commit changes, or push to `develop`. Assume the branch and its commits already exist.

**Invocation guard**: if this skill was triggered by a natural-language request (e.g. "create the PR for me") rather than the explicit `/open-pr` command, confirm the target branch and base with the user before running `gh pr create`. Skip this confirmation when invoked via the literal `/open-pr` command.
- Dynamic instruction based on current state

**Handle states:**
- If `state: "blocked"` (missing artifacts): show message, suggest using openspec-continue-change
- *Alternative considered*: `.agents/skills/open-pr/` for consistency with the repo's stated skill convention. Rejected because it would silently break native `/open-pr` slash-command registration and auto-invocation, the two explicit requirements driving this work.

**2. Auto-invocation: omit `disable-model-invocation`, but add an explicit confirmation guard for implicit triggers.**
The user wants both explicit (`/open-pr`) and natural-language invocation to work. Claude Code's own best practice recommends `disable-model-invocation: true` for side-effect operations, but that would block natural-language triggering entirely, which is a stated requirement here. Decision: leave auto-invocation enabled, and add an instruction in the skill body requiring the agent to confirm target branch and base with the user before running `gh pr create` when the skill was triggered implicitly (i.e., not via the literal `/open-pr` command) — for `gh pr edit` are more common on updates. This preserves today's "just run it" convenience for the explicit command while adding a safety check only for the ambiguous-trigger path.

Inline comments:
In @.claude/commands/opsx/apply.md:
- Around line 68-73: Update both apply entrypoints to use the task artifact and
path resolved by status through contextFiles instead of assuming tasks.md,
including marking completion in that resolved artifact. Update archive’s
incomplete-task check to use the same resolved artifact path and preserve its
warning behavior when tasks remain incomplete.
- Around line 44-49: Update the blocked-state handling in the “Handle states”
section so it does not suggest unavailable `/opsx:continue`; either enable and
generate the expanded continue workflow before using that command consistently,
or replace it with a recovery path supported by the configured profile.

In @.claude/commands/opsx/archive.md:
- Line 65: Update the archive decision flow in the archive command and the
openspec-archive-change skill so selecting Cancel terminates immediately and
does not reach the archive step. Only continue to the mv operation for a
non-cancel choice, while preserving the existing sync behavior for the sync
branch.

In @.claude/commands/opsx/sync.md:
- Around line 59-75: The sync merge rules in the command and skill need explicit
idempotent no-op handling. Before adding MODIFIED scenarios, check whether each
scenario already exists and skip it; for RENAMED requirements, skip when FROM is
absent and TO already exists, while preserving normal rename behavior otherwise.
Apply the same rules consistently in both implementations.

In @.claude/skills/open-pr/SKILL.md:
- Around line 52-55: The PR creation instructions should make label flags
conditional: query existing labels, include one separate --label flag only for
accurately matching labels, and allow no label when none applies. Keep
--assignee brandonmarshal in the same gh pr create invocation, and update any
related existing-PR labeling guidance to avoid requiring labels when no accurate
match exists.

In @.claude/skills/openspec-archive-change/SKILL.md:
- Around line 61-62: Derive main-spec paths from planningHome.specsDir instead
of the hardcoded openspec/specs path in all three workflows:
.claude/skills/openspec-archive-change/SKILL.md lines 61-62,
.claude/commands/opsx/sync.md lines 51-55, and
.claude/skills/openspec-sync-specs/SKILL.md lines 51-55. Use the resolved
planning context from openspec status --change "&lt;name&gt;" --json
consistently when reading or creating corresponding main specs.
- Line 69: Update both archive workflow definitions so selecting sync archives
only after the delegated Task reports an explicit successful completion; handle
failed, incomplete, or missing sync results by stopping before archive. Keep the
explicit “Archive without syncing” option unchanged, and update the sync flow
around the Task invocation and step 5.

In `@openspec/changes/open-pr-skill/design.md`:
- Line 32: Update the open-pr skill instructions to require user confirmation of
the target branch and base before every model-invoked gh pr create, since the
skill cannot reliably distinguish explicit /open-pr invocation from
natural-language auto-invocation. Keep automatic invocation enabled and preserve
the existing gh pr edit behavior.

**Handle states:**
- If `state: "blocked"` (missing artifacts): show message, suggest using `/opsx:continue`
- If `state: "all_done"`: congratulate, suggest archive
- Otherwise: proceed to implementation

**Workspace guard:** If status JSON reports `actionContext.mode: "workspace-planning"` and `allowedEditRoots` is empty, explain that full workspace apply is not supported in this slice. Treat linked repos and folders as read-only context, ask the user to select an affected area through an explicit implementation workflow, and STOP before editing files.

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
The /opsx:continue command is an essential feature of the OpenSpec (OPSX) framework, designed for incremental, step-by-step development of software specifications and changes [1][2][3]. Key technical details about /opsx:continue: Functionality The command allows you to create the next artifact in a change&#39;s dependency chain one at a time, rather than generating all planning artifacts simultaneously (which the /opsx:ff or /opsx:propose commands do) [1][2][3]. This approach is ideal when you want to review, verify, or manually edit artifacts at each stage before the AI proceeds to the next requirement [1][3]. Usage - Syntax: /opsx:continue [change-name] [3]. - Arguments: The change-name is optional; if omitted, the AI attempts to infer the active change from your conversation context or lists available changes for selection if ambiguous [4][3]. - Workflow: Upon invocation, it queries the artifact dependency graph, identifies which artifacts are ready versus blocked, and creates the first "ready" artifact based on established schema instructions [5][3]. Requirements and Configuration - Profile Availability: The command is part of the expanded workflow command set and is not included in the default core profile [1]. To enable it, you must update your configuration by running openspec config profile, selecting the expanded/continue option, and then executing openspec update [1]. - Skill Source: The underlying skill is named openspec-continue-change, with its template logic defined in the OpenSpec repository [4][6][1]. When to Use - When you require granular control over the design and planning process [1][3]. - To catch potential design drift early by reviewing each component before it informs the next [1]. - When working on complex tasks where intermediate feedback is necessary [3]. For further guidance, official documentation can be found in the docs/opsx.md and docs/commands.md files within the Fission-AI/OpenSpec GitHub repository [2][3].

This page documents the `/opsx:continue` command, which creates one artifact at a time during the OPSX planning phase. Each invocation produces exactly one artifact, allowing you to review and edit it before proceeding to the next. This is in contrast to `/opsx:ff` (page 3.5), which generates all planning artifacts in a single pass, and `/opsx:new` (page 3.3), which only scaffolds the change directory without creating any artifacts. ... `/opsx:continue` is part of the expanded workflow command set. It is not included in the default `core` profile. To enable it, run `openspec config profile`, select `continue`, then run `openspec update`. ... | Property | Value | | --- | --- | | Command | `/opsx:continue [change-name]` | | Profile availability | Expanded / custom workflow selection only | | Skill name | `openspec-continue-change` | | Precedes | `/opsx:apply` | | Typically follows | `/opsx:new` | | Skill template source | `src/core/templates/workflows/continue-change.ts` | ... ## What It ... When invoked, the AI agent follows the logic defined in the workflow template: ... 1. Change Identification: Determines the target change from the argument or conversation context. If ambiguous, it uses `openspec list --json` to prompt the user skills/openspec-continue-change/SKILL.md 20-27 ... 2. Status Check: Calls `openspec status --change --json` to retrieve the current artifact completion state via the CLI skills/openspec-continue-change/SKILL.md 38-40 ... 3. State Analysis: Receives a `ChangeStatus` object containing the completion state of each artifact (`done`, `skipped`, `ready`, or `blocked`) src/core/artifact-graph/instruction-loader.ts 143-157 ... 4. Instruction Retrieval: Identifies the first artifact whose status is `ready` and calls `openspec instructions --change --json` skills/openspec-continue-change/SKILL.md 59-64 ... 5. Artifact Creation: Receives an `ArtifactInstructions` object containing the template, context, rules, and dependency information. It then creates the artifact file at the `resolvedOutputPath` skills/openspec-continue-change/SKILL.md 65-78 ... 6. Progress Reporting: Reports which artifacts are now `ready` or unlocked as a result of completing this one via the `unlocks` field src/core/artifact-graph/instruction-loader.ts 108 ... Only one artifact is created per invocation. The user reviews the result, then runs `/opsx:continue` again for the next step skills/openspec-continue-change/SKILL.md 109 ... Each artifact in the dependency graph has one of four statuses at any given time, computed by the CLI: ... | Status | Meaning | | --- | --- | | `done` | Artifact file already exists on disk. | | `skipped` | Artifact is satisfied via `skip_specs: true` in `.openspec.yaml`. No file exists. | | `ready` | All required dependencies are `done` or `skipped`; artifact can be created now. | | `blocked` | One or more dependencies are not yet satisfied. | ... These statuses are computed by `formatChangeStatus()` and exposed via `openspec status --json`.

Do not advertise an unconfigured recovery command.

OpenSpec defines /opsx:continue and openspec-continue-change as aliases for the expanded continue workflow. This checkout has no continue command or skill, no profile configuration, and no openspec update setup. The blocked-state instruction therefore points users to an unavailable recovery workflow.

Enable and generate the expanded continue workflow before suggesting it, then use /opsx:continue consistently. Otherwise, replace this suggestion with a recovery path supported by the configured profile.

Use the schema-resolved task artifact.

OpenSpec status identifies which artifact contains tasks, and apply instructions return concrete paths through contextFiles. For schemas whose task artifact is not tasks.md, the apply command and skill can update the wrong file or leave completion state unchanged. Archive can then miss incomplete tasks because it reads tasks.md and proceeds without a task warning when that file does not exist.

Use the resolved task artifact and path in both apply entrypoints. Use the same artifact path from status when archive counts incomplete tasks. The command and skill are separate entrypoints, so update each one.

Stop on Cancel in both archive workflows.

The Cancel option is followed by an unconditional instruction to continue to step 5, where mv moves changeRoot into the archive. Apply the same branch in .claude/commands/opsx/archive.md and .claude/skills/openspec-archive-change/SKILL.md: terminate on Cancel, and archive only for a non-cancel choice. The move is recoverable but still violates the user's explicit cancellation and requires manual restoration.

**MODIFIED Requirements:**
- Find the requirement in main spec
- Apply the changes - this can be:
- Adding new scenarios (don't need to copy existing ones)
- Modifying existing scenarios
- Changing the requirement description
- Preserve scenarios/content not mentioned in the delta

**REMOVED Requirements:**
- Remove the entire requirement block from main spec

**RENAMED Requirements:**
- Find the FROM requirement, rename to TO

Define no-op handling for already-synced changes.

The final guardrail requires idempotence, but the merge rules do not define how to achieve it. On a repeated sync, the MODIFIED rule can add a scenario that already exists. The RENAMED rule can fail to find FROM after the first sync even though TO already exists. Add an explicit existing-scenario check and skip scenarios already present. Treat a rename with missing FROM and existing TO as a no-op. Apply these rules in both the command and the skill.

Run `gh pr create` with `--label` and `--assignee` included in that same invocation — never run a bare `gh pr create` and add these afterward as a separate step.

- **Labels:** pull the real set from `gh label list` first — never guess or invent one. Choose labels based on what Step 1 actually found changed (area/component/language touched), not a fixed default set. Pass each chosen label with its own `--label "<name>"` flag.
- **Assignee:** always `--assignee brandonmarshal`.

Make label flags conditional on an accurate match.

The PR-creation specification allows the system to proceed without a label when no existing label accurately describes the change. This skill requires --label for every gh pr create and --add-label for every existing PR missing labels. Those instructions leave no compliant create or edit path when gh label list has no matching label. Include label flags only for selected existing labels, while keeping --assignee brandonmarshal in the same invocation.

official OpenSpec CLI documentation planningHome specsDir repo-local main spec path

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
The OpenSpec CLI (openspec) is a command-line tool designed to manage project specifications, changes, and workflows [1][2]. While the official CLI documentation provides a comprehensive list of commands—including init, update, list, show, validate, and archive [1][3]—the specific configuration parameters specsDir, repo-local, and main spec path refer to internal structural conventions used by the OpenSpec system, particularly when resolving paths for spec synchronization [4]. Key details regarding these concepts include: - specsDir: This is a configuration property typically defined within the OpenSpec environment or configuration (often associated with planningHome) to specify the directory where specifications are stored [4]. - Main Spec Path: This path is derived by the system using the configured specsDir and the capability name (e.g., &lt;planningHome.specsDir&gt;/&lt;capability&gt;/spec.md) [4]. - Repo-local: This refers to OpenSpec operations acting on the nearest local openspec/ root or working directory, as opposed to standalone registered stores [4]. The CLI maintains a clear separation between terminal commands (openspec ...) for setup and management, and AI slash commands (/opsx:...) used within an AI assistant&#39;s chat to execute workflows like proposing changes and applying updates [5][2]. For developers looking to manage or sync specs, the system uses these internal path resolutions to intelligently merge delta specs from active changes into the main project documentation [4]. You can view your current configuration and working context using the openspec config and openspec context commands, respectively [1][3].

Use planningHome.specsDir for main specs.

openspec status --change "<name>" --json returns the resolved planning context, and OpenSpec can use a non-default planning root. The archive workflow and both sync workflows still use openspec/specs/<capability>/spec.md. A repo-local delta can therefore be read from one planning root while its main spec is read or created in another. Derive the main-spec path from planningHome.specsDir in all three workflows.

Archive only after a successful sync.

Both archive workflows invoke Task when the user selects sync and then unconditionally proceed to step 5. A failed or incomplete delegated sync can therefore archive the change while the main specs remain stale. Require an explicit successful sync result before archiving in both workflow definitions. Keep the explicit “Archive without syncing” option unchanged.

- *Alternative considered*: `.agents/skills/open-pr/` for consistency with the repo's stated skill convention. Rejected because it would silently break native `/open-pr` slash-command registration and auto-invocation, the two explicit requirements driving this work.

**2. Auto-invocation: omit `disable-model-invocation`, but add an explicit confirmation guard for implicit triggers.**
The user wants both explicit (`/open-pr`) and natural-language invocation to work. Claude Code's own best practice recommends `disable-model-invocation: true` for side-effect operations, but that would block natural-language triggering entirely, which is a stated requirement here. Decision: leave auto-invocation enabled, and add an instruction in the skill body requiring the agent to confirm target branch and base with the user before running `gh pr create` when the skill was triggered implicitly (i.e., not via the literal `/open-pr` command) — for `gh pr edit` are more common on updates. This preserves today's "just run it" convenience for the explicit command while adding a safety check only for the ambiguous-trigger path.

Claude Code skills SKILL.md disable-model-invocation invocation source explicit slash command automatic invocation documentation

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
In Claude Code, the disable-model-invocation setting is a frontmatter field in the SKILL.md file that controls how a skill is invoked [1][2]. By default, skills can be triggered both by a user via an explicit slash command (e.g., /skill-name) and automatically by Claude when it determines the skill is relevant to the conversation context [1][3]. Setting disable-model-invocation: true in the skill&#39;s YAML frontmatter disables automatic invocation by the model [1][4]. Key implications of setting disable-model-invocation: true include: - Explicit Invocation Only: The skill can still be triggered manually by the user typing the slash command, but Claude is prevented from choosing to run it autonomously [1][2]. - Context Management: When this flag is set, the skill&#39;s description is removed from Claude&#39;s context, which can help optimize token usage [1][5]. - Subagent and Scheduling Restrictions: As of version 2.1.196, this setting prevents the skill from being preloaded into subagents and stops it from executing when triggered by a scheduled task [1][6]. - Best Practices: This setting is recommended for any skills that perform actions with side effects—such as deploying code, committing changes, or sending messages—where you want to ensure deliberate, human-controlled timing rather than letting the agent decide when it is appropriate to execute [1][3]. This setting is distinct from user-invocable: false, which only hides the skill from the slash command menu but does not prevent Claude from invoking it automatically [1][4][7]. To fully restrict a skill to manual, user-initiated use only, disable-model-invocation: true is the required configuration [4][7].

Also called: disable model invocation, manual only skill, stop Claude auto-running a skill `disable-model-invocation` is a SKILL.md frontmatter field that prevents plain Claude from automatically loading the skill. Its default value is `false`. When set to `true`, only you can invoke the skill by typing its `/name` slash-command. This is useful for workflows with side effects or where you need to control the timing, such as for commands like `/commit`, `/deploy`, or `/send-slack-message`. You do not want Claude deciding to deploy code simply because it appears ready. Setting this field to `true` also removes the skill&`#39`;s description from Claude&`#39`;s context, which can free up listing budget. Additionally, it prevents the skill from being preloaded into subagents and, in recent versions of Claude Code, stops it from running when a scheduled task triggers it. This contrasts with `user-invocable: false`, which hides the skill from the user-invoked menu but allows Claude to run it. While `user-invocable` controls user visibility, `disable-model-invocation` controls whether the model itself can initiate the skill&`#39`;s execution. For example, a skill like Skill Audit might benefit from this setting if you want to ensure it only runs when explicitly requested, not based on Claude&`#39`;s interpretation of code readiness. This field is distinct from the concept of model-invocation itself, which refers to the model&`#39`;s ability to call tools or skills.

As of the latest releases, any skill you create can be invoked with a slash prefix, and legacy command files continue working. However, skills offer capabilities that pure slash commands never had—automatic context loading, supporting file directories, and frontmatter-controlled invocation. Knowing when to leverage each approach separates effective Claude Code users from those fighting against the system&`#39`;s design. ... In 2026, skills and slash commands operate as part of a unified extensibility system ... Creating a skill automatically makes it available as a slash command, while legacy command ... remain functional for backward compatibility ... The unification happened gradually. Anthropic recognized that maintaining two parallel systems created unnecessary complexity. Rather than forcing migration, they merged the concepts: skills became the primary abstraction, with slash command invocation as one of their capabilities. According to the official skills documentation, a file at `.claude/commands/review.md` and a skill at `.claude/skills/review/SKILL.md` both create `/review`—they&`#39`;re now equivalent paths to the same functionality. ... This matters because skills offer additional features that plain command files lack. Skills support YAML frontmatter for controlling invocation behavior, can include supporting files like scripts and templates, and enable Claude to auto-load relevant context without explicit user commands. If you&`#39`;re starting fresh, skills are the recommended approach. If you have existing command files, they work fine—but understanding the full skill system unlocks capabilities you&`#39`;re currently missing. ... Skills auto-load based on context relevance; slash commands require explicit manual invocation. This fundamental distinction shapes when you choose each approach. ... Slash commands are explicit triggers you invoke from the terminal. Type `/deploy`, and Claude loads the associated instructions and executes the workflow. You control exactly when the command runs. This works well for actions with side effects—deploying code, sending messages, or modifying external systems—where you want deliberate human initiation. ... Skills operate differently. When you create a skill with a description field, Claude continuously evaluates whether that skill applies to the current conversation. If you&`#39`;re discussing database optimization and you have a skill with description "Optimize database queries and indexes," Claude may load that skill&`#39`;s instructions automatically. The full content lazy-loads only when relevant, keeping context efficient. ... | Aspect | Slash Commands | Skills | | --- | --- | --- | | Invocation | Manual only (`/command`) | Manual or automatic | | Context loading | On explicit invoke | Description always; full on invoke | | Supporting files | Single markdown file | Directory with scripts, templates | | Frontmatter | Not supported | Full YAML configuration | | Best for | Actions with side effects | Knowledge and context enhancement | ... The practical implication: use slash commands (or skills with `disable-model-invocation: true`) when you want control over timing. Use full skills when Claude should apply expertise automatically based on conversation context. ... Use skills with `disable-model-invocation: true` when: ... - You want the organizational benefits of skills (directories, frontmatter) - But the action should only run when you explicitly invoke it - Side effects make automatic invocation dangerous ... For example, a `/deploy` command should always require explicit invocation—you don&`#39`;t want Claude deciding your code looks ready and triggering deployment.

Unlike most built-in commands, which execute fixed logic directly, bundled skills are prompt-based: they give Claude detailed instructions and let it orchestrate the work using its tools. You invoke them the same way as any other skill, by typing `/` followed by the skill name. ... Every skill needs a `SKILL.md` file with two parts: YAML frontmatter between `---` markers that tells Claude when to use the skill, and markdown content with the instructions Claude follows when the skill runs.

It is called `disable-model-invocation`, it defaults to false, and when I first audited my own setup I could report a number that should worry anyone with an operational skill library: out of 54 skills on this machine, the count with the flag set was zero. Including the one that spends ad budget. ... - What the flag does. One line, `disable-model-invocation: true`, closes every model-driven path to a skill. It still works when you type `/name`. ... By default, both parties can invoke any skill: you by typing `/skill-name`, the model by deciding the skill matches your request. The official docs put the restriction plainly: set `disable-model-invocation: true` and only you can invoke the skill. Their examples are commit, deploy, and send-slack-message, with a sentence I would frame and hang above every agent workstation: you do not want Claude deciding to deploy because your code looks ready. ... The flag reaches further than the current session. Per the docs it also keeps the skill from being preloaded into subagents, and since v2.1.196 it stops the skill from running when a scheduled task fires with the skill as its prompt. And the mechanism is a blockade, not a blindfold: the docs describe the flagged state as "description not in context, full skill loads when you invoke", and elsewhere say the line removes the skill from Claude&`#39`;s context entirely. If the model tries to invoke it anyway through the Skill tool, the runtime refuses the call. So the line does not mean "ask me first". It means the model-driven paths to this skill are closed, with one honest caveat covered in its own section below. ... , background knowledge ... should load when relevant but that makes no sense as a command a person would type. The two fields ... the skill library into three lanes: things either of us can trigger, things ... I trigger, things only the model triggers. Set ... start the skill. Claude Code&`#39`;s docs do not spell out that fourth cell; VS Code&`#39`;s docs do, ... call it a disabled skill ... The two names invite the wrong guess, and the docs now carry a note written for exactly that guess: with `user-invocable: false` you cannot invoke the skill, but Claude still can. To keep Claude from invoking it through the Skill tool, you set `disable-model-invocation: true`. That note exists because someone filed a documentation issue in January 2026 describing the trap in one phrase, a shadow tool: a command missing from your `/` menu that the model can still run on its own. ... The docs table is the cleanest summary I have found. `disable-model-invocation: true` means you can invoke, Claude cannot, and the description stays out of context. `user-invocable: false` means you cannot invoke, Claude can, and the description is always in context. The first flag is about safety and budget. The second is a UI setting that hides a command from humans. ... Two levers the docs added since I first wrote this. The budget itself is now a setting, `skillListingBudgetFraction` (0.02 means 2 percent), or a fixed character count through the `SLASH_COMMAND_TOOL_CHAR_BUDGET` environment variable. And each entry is capped at 1,536 characters of `description` plus `when_to_use` regardless of budget, configurable with `skillListingMaxDescChars`, so the key use case belongs in the first sentence. For skills that are rare but harmless there is still the dedicated lever for pure trimming, `skillOverrides` set to `name-only`, which drops a description without touching invocation. The flag is for side effects; name-only is for noise. ... That sentence is the runtime doing its job: the Skill tool refused a model-driven invocation of a flagged skill.

In Claude Code, SKILL.md files define custom skills that can be invoked either by the user via a slash command or automatically by Claude when it deems the skill relevant [1]. Invocation Sources and Control: - Default Behavior: By default, skills are available for both manual user invocation (using /skill-name) and automatic invocation by Claude [1]. - Restricting Automatic Invocation: You can prevent Claude from automatically triggering a skill by setting disable-model-invocation: true in the skill&#39;s YAML frontmatter [1]. This forces the skill to be used only through explicit slash commands or when triggered by scheduled tasks/subagents [1]. - Context Variable/Injection: The system supports dynamic context injection using the!command syntax within the skill&#39;s markdown content [1]. When a skill is invoked, Claude Code executes the specified shell command and replaces the command line with the command&#39;s output before sending the skill content to Claude, ensuring the model receives current data [1].

Require confirmation before every model-invoked PR creation. Claude Code documents explicit slash-command invocation, automatic invocation, and disable-model-invocation, but it does not document an invocation-origin value available to SKILL.md. The guard cannot reliably distinguish /open-pr from natural-language auto-invocation. An automatic invocation may therefore run gh pr create without branch and base confirmation. Keep natural-language invocation enabled, but require confirmation before every model-invoked gh pr create.

preferred review budget of approximately 15 files or 400 lines but remaining
below the larger 25-file or 800-line threshold. Assert that the output warns
about the preferred budget, while keeping the stacked-PR or documented-exception
requirement only in the existing larger-threshold scenario.
- Around line 20-26: Update the Scenario 1 verification to request and assert
the PR title and body, including the branch-matched template structure and exact
changelog-decision label, while retaining the existing metadata checks. Update
Scenario 2 to fetch the single PR’s body and verify it remains accurate,
reflects the additional commit, and refreshes the FR-017 test-plan state.
Separately verify the gh pr create or gh pr edit invocation to cover FR-012’s
same-action requirement rather than relying on final PR state.

In `@specs/002-open-pr-skill/spec.md`:
- Line 135: Update the constitution assumption in the specification to recognize
Principle VIII as the governing source for branch, PR, and changelog
conventions, aligning it with plan.md and the stated PR objective. Remove the
claim that this repository lacks a constitutional principle for this area, while
preserving the references to the organization’s workflow documentation only
where they remain applicable.
- Line 92: Update FR-001 to restrict commit history and diff sourcing to
repository-derived change claims such as what changed and why, while explicitly
permitting validated branch-name or stack metadata for relationship fields
including related tickets, issue or epic, stack position, and dependencies.
Preserve the requirements in FR-014 and Quickstart Scenario 4.
- Around line 101-103: Update the requirements around FR-010 and FR-012 to
define the behavior when an applicable label, especially the changelog-decision
label, is missing: before creating or updating the pull request, detect the
missing required label and either stop without mutation or use an explicitly
approved label-setup path; never invent labels or proceed without exactly one
required changelog-decision indicator.
- Line 95: Clarify the behavior for claude/, copilot/, and openai/ branch
prefixes across FR-004, PR Template.routingKey, and the routing procedure: the
skill must flag these branches as naming mismatches before PR creation, then
define whether fallback template resolution occurs only after explicit user
approval. Ensure the documented flow preserves both the branch-name rejection
contract and the routingKey-based template fallback without proceeding silently.

In `@specs/002-open-pr-skill/tasks.md`:
- Line 147: Update the US1 verification task instructions for T012, T013, and
T014 so T012 and T013 use separate disposable branches and pull requests,
preventing either task from finding or modifying the other’s PR; alternatively
require T012 and T013 to run sequentially. Keep T014 parallelizable with the
other verification tasks.
- Line 149: Update the T023/T024 task definitions so they no longer run in
parallel: remove the `[P]` marker from one task and state an explicit execution
order, ensuring the shared `.claude/skills/open-pr/SKILL.md` edits are applied
sequentially.

Keep the routing map aligned with approved branch prefixes.

Principle VIII approves only feat/, fix/, hotfix/, refactor/, chore/, task/, docs/, test/, perf/, ci/, build/, deps/, security/, design/, a11y/, seo/, and config/. This file describes routes as the canonical map of supported branch prefixes, but entries such as doc/, automation/, ux/, research/, and codex/ are outside that set. The current open-pr skill and repository workflows do not show a reachable consumer that validates branch names from this map, so do not claim that these entries currently accept prohibited branches. Remove the unapproved routes or classify them as explicit fallback-only cases, as done for claude/, copilot/, and openai/.

Route specialised branch types to their specialised templates.

test/, security/, a11y/, design/, and audit/ currently resolve to generic or incorrect templates even though this change adds pr_test.md, pr_security.md, pr_a11y.md, pr_design.md, and pr_audit.md. Update these routes and add the same files to available_templates.

official GitHub documentation multiple pull request templates PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE directory selectable template front matter name about

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
GitHub does not provide a native, interactive "template picker" UI for pull requests similar to the one available for issue templates [1][2]. Consequently, YAML front matter keys like "name" and "about"—which are used to drive the issue template chooser—are not parsed or used to create a selectable list for pull requests [3][2][4]. To use multiple pull request templates, you must store them in a PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE directory [5][3][1]. Directory Structure and Selection: 1. You can store your templates in a PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/ subdirectory within the.github, docs, or root directory of your repository [5][3][4]. 2. Because there is no native UI to select these templates, they are not automatically "selectable" in the traditional sense [1]. Instead, you must specify the template you wish to use by appending the template parameter to the pull request creation URL (e.g.,?template=template-name.md) [5][6][1]. Alternative Workarounds: Since there is no built-in dropdown menu, teams often use the following methods to make multiple templates accessible: - URL Links: Include links to pre-filled PR creation URLs (e.g., https://github.com/OWNER/REPO/compare/main...feature?template=feature-template.md) in your README.md or CONTRIBUTING.md files [6][1][2]. - Default Template: If you place a file named pull_request_template.md in the root of the PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE directory, it will serve as the default template [6][1]. - CLI Usage: When using the GitHub CLI, you can use the --template flag to specify which template to apply [1]. In summary, YAML front matter is not supported for pull request templates, and there is no native "chooser" UI [2]. You must trigger specific templates via URL parameters [6][1].

<title>GitHub PR Template: Examples & Downloads (2026)</title> https://gitmore.io/blog/github-pull-request-template GitHub looks for a specially named markdown file in your repository and uses its contents as the default PR description. You have three placement options: ... - `.github/pull_request_template.md`(recommended) - `pull_request_template.md` in the repo root - `docs/pull_request_template.md` ... ## How to Use Multiple Pull Request Templates on GitHub ... A single template works for most teams, but larger organizations often need different templates for different types of work. GitHub supports multiple pull request templates through a folder-based approach. ... ### Setting Up Multiple Templates ... Instead of a single`pull_request_template.md` file, create a folder at`.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/` and add separate markdown files for each template type: ... ``` .github/ └── PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/ ├── feature.md ├── bugfix.md ├── hotfix.md ├── refactor.md └── docs.md ``` ... Each file contains a different template tailored to that type of change. When a developer creates a new pull request, they select the template by appending a query parameter to the PR creation URL: ... ``` https://github.com/your-org/your-repo/compare/main...feature-branch?template=feature.md ``` ... ### GitHub Does Not Have a Native Template Dropdown ... Unlike GitLab, which shows a dropdown menu to select a merge request template, GitHub does not provide a built-in template picker UI for pull requests. You must use the`?template=filename.md` query parameter in the URL. There are a few practical ways to make this easier for your team: ... - Browser bookmarks: Create bookmarks for each template URL (e.g., one for feature PRs, one for bug fixes). - README links: Add links to your repository&`#39`;s README or CONTRIBUTING.md with pre-filled template URLs. - CLI aliases: Use the GitHub CLI (`gh pr create`) with a`--template` flag to select templates from the command line. ... Important: If you have both a single`pull_request_template.md` file and a`PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/` folder, the single file takes precedence as the default. Remove the single file if you want to use the folder-based approach exclusively. ... ## Setting Up a Pull Request Template for Your GitHub Organization ... If you manage multiple repositories across a GitHub organization, you don&`#39`;t want to copy the same template into every repo. GitHub supports organization-wide default templates through a special`.github` repository. ... the .github Repository Works ... Create a repository named`.github` in your organization (e.g.,`your-org/.github`). Any community health files you place in this repository become the defaults for all repositories in the organization that don&`#39`;t have their own versions. ... ``` # In your organization&`#39`;s .github repo: your-org/.github/ ├── pull_request_template.md # Default PR template for all repos ├── PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/ │ ├── feature.md # Org-wide feature template │ └── bugfix.md # Org-wide bugfix template ├── ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ │ └── bug_report.md └── CONTRIBUTING.md ``` ... Any repository that has its own`pull_request_template.md` will use its local version instead of the organization default. This gives you a sensible default across all repos while allowing individual teams to customize when needed. ... 1. Check the file path: The file must be named exactly`pull_request_template.md`(not`pr_template.md` or`PR_TEMPLATE.md`). Place it in one of these locations:`.github/`, the repo root, or`docs/`. ... 2. Check the branch: The template file must exist on the repository&`#39`;s default branch (usually`main` or`master`). A template on a feature branch won&`#39`;t be picked up. ... 3. Case sensitivity: The filename is case-insensitive on GitHub, but the folder name`PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/` for multiple templates must be uppercase. ... 5. Conflicting files: If you have a`pull_request_template.md` in multiple locations (root,`.github/`, and`docs/`), GitHub uses the first one it finds in this priority order:`.github/`> root >`docs/`. ... ### Can I use multip…[truncated] <title>Github pull request template detect YAML front matter using config.yml and apply to fields</title> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66392676/github-pull-request-template-detect-yaml-front-matter-using-config-yml-and-apply # Github pull request template detect YAML front matter using config.yml and apply to fields Tags: templates, github, yaml, pull-request - Score: 7 - Views: 2847 - Answers: 2 - Answered: yes - Asked by: Roger Perez (3169 rep) - Asked: 2021-02-26 - Site: stackoverflow ## Question I am looking to create a pull request template in GitHub where Github is able to take the YAML front matter similar to Issue_templates and parse it into the correct fields. In Github docs under Supported file types => config.yml it claims to allow pull request template configuration. GitHub Docs to Example below: --- name: Name of pull request template about: "Use this template for setting up your PR description" title: "Add support for the new feature" labels: bug, enhancement, customer-request assignees: self --- The only relevant information was to pass the keys as query parameters to display one of the multiple templates, see link below. Docs: About issue and pull requests Supported query parameters ## Answers ### Answer by Roger Perez (score: 1 [ACCEPTED]) After much trial and error you&`#39`;re not able to use a YAML front matter at this time. The only way is to use the query parameters in the URL. https://github.com/url/to/pr? template=custom_template_pr.md &title=Add+support+for+the+new+feature &labels=bug%2Cenhancement%2Ccustomer-request &assignees=self ### Answer by TheFreeman193 (score: 5) Having tested this personally, it appears that GitHub doesn&`#39`;t parse YAML front matter for Pull Request templates at present. You can have a single default template pull_request_template.md, and custom ones in PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/ accessible with the GET query template=. In both cases however, a front matter block will be displayed as part of the body, not parsed. The documentation isn&`#39`;t very clear about this, but a config.yml can only be used to configure the issue template chooser. At present, there is no pull request template chooser to configure. You can submit a feature request for this using the contact support form, and selecting Pull requests and code review for the What part of GitHub is your feedback about? option. That is according to this answer on the community forum. One way around this, in the meantime, might be to leave a message in your default (pull_request_template.md), pointing to for example, your CONTRIBUTING.md. Then, in that file, you could include links for each type of pull request with custom GET queries. For example, with PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/custom.md the link might be (url broken up for convenience): https://github.com/<user>/<repo>/compare/<base>...<compare>? template=custom.md &title=Add+support+for+the+new+feature &labels=bug%2Cenhancement%2Ccustomer-request &assignees=self As per the supported query params. <title>About issue and pull request templates</title> https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-server@3.19/communities/using-templates-to-encourage-useful-issues-and-pull-requests/about-issue-and-pull-request-templates # About issue and pull request templates With issue and pull request templates, you can customize and standardize the information you&`#39`;d like contributors to include when they open issues and pull requests in your repository. After you create issue and pull request templates in your repository, contributors can use the templates to open issues or describe the proposed changes in their pull requests according to the repository&`#39`;s contributing guidelines. For more information about adding contributing guidelines to a repository, see Setting guidelines for repository contributors. You can create default issue and pull request templates for your organization or personal account. For more information, see Creating a default community health file. ## Issue templates When you create issue templates for your repository using the issue template builder or with issue forms, contributors can select the appropriate template when they open new issues in the repository. Issue templates are helpful when you want to provide guidance for opening issues while allowing contributors to specify the content of their issues. If you want contributors to provide specific, structured information when they open issues, issue forms help ensure that you receive your desired information. Using the template builder, you can specify a title and description for each template, add the template content, and either commit the template to the default branch or open a pull request in the repository. The template builder automatically adds the YAML front matter markup that is required for the template to show on the new issue page. For more information, see Configuring issue templates for your repository. With issue forms, you can create templates that have web form fields using the GitHub form schema. When a contributor opens an issue using an issue form, the form inputs are converted to a standard markdown issue comment. You can specify different input types and set inputs as required to help contributors open actionable issues in your repository. For more information, see Configuring issue templates for your repository and Syntax for issue forms. You can customize the issue template chooser that people see when creating a new issue in your repository by adding a `config.yml` file to the `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE` folder. For more information, see Configuring issue templates for your repository. Issue templates are stored on the repository&`#39`;s default branch, in a hidden `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE` directory. If you create a template in another branch, it will not be available for collaborators to use. Issue template filenames are not case sensitive, and need a .md extension. Issue templates created with issue forms need a .yml extension. To be displayed with a checkmark in the community profile checklist, issue templates must be located in the `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE` folder and contain valid `name:` and `about:` keys in the YAML frontmatter (for issue templates defined in `.md` files) or valid `name:` and `description:` keys (for issue forms defined in `.yml` files). You can create a security policy to give people instructions for reporting security vulnerabilities in your project. For more information, see Adding a security policy to your repository. ## Pull request templates When you add a pull request template to your repository, project contributors will automatically see the template&`#39`;s contents in the pull request body. You must create templates on the repository&`#39`;s default branch. Templates created in other branches are not available for collaborators to use. You can store your pull request template in the repository&`#39`;s visible root directory, the `docs` folder, or the hidden `.github` directory. Pull request template filenames are not case sensitive, and can have an extension such as .md or .txt.

You can create a PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/ subdirectory in any of the supported folders to contain multiple pull request templates, and use the `template` query parameter to specify the template that will fill the pull request body. For more information, see Using query parameters to create a pull request. You can create default pull request templates for your organization or personal account. For more information, see Creating a default community health file. ## Adding a pull request template 1. On GitHub, navigate to the main page of the repository. 2. Above the list of files, select the Add file dropdown menu, then click ** Create new file**. Alternatively, you can click in the file tree view on the left. 3. In the file name field: To make your pull request template visible in the repository&`#39`;s root directory, name the pull request template `pull_request_template.md`. To make your pull request template visible in the repository&`#39`;s `docs` directory, name the pull request template `docs/pull_request_template.md`. To store your file in a hidden directory, name the pull request template `.github/pull_request_template.md`. To create multiple pull request templates and use the `template` query parameter to specify a template to fill the pull request body, type .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/, then the name of your pull request template. For example, `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/pull_request_template.md`. You can also store multiple pull request templates in a `PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE` subdirectory within the root or `docs/` directories. For more information, see Using query parameters to create a pull request. 4. In the body of the new file, add your pull request template. This template could consist of asking to include: A reference to a related issue in your repository. A description of the changes proposed in the pull request.@mentions of the person or team responsible for reviewing proposed changes. 5. Click Commit changes... 6. In the "Commit message" field, type a short, meaningful commit message that describes the change you made to the file. You can attribute the commit to more than one author in the commit message. For more information, see Creating a commit with multiple authors or on behalf of an organization. 7. Below the commit message fields, decide whether to add your commit to the current branch or to a new branch. If your current branch is the default branch, you should choose to create a new branch for your commit and then create a pull request. For more information, see Creating a pull request. Templates are available to collaborators when they are merged into the repository&`#39`;s default branch. 8. Click Commit changes or Propose changes. ## Further reading - About issue and pull request templates - Creating an issue - Creating a pull request

Replace completed initiative data with reusable placeholders.

This file is a Markdown template in .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/, so GitHub can apply it through ?template=FEEDBACK_RESPONSE.md. Although config.yml does not list it in available_templates or route branches to it, a contributor can still populate a new PR with these completed rows, issue numbers, and initiative links. Replace the records with neutral instructions and empty rows, or move the completed response outside the template directory.

- **FR-001**: The skill MUST derive all pull request content (what changed, why, and any related ticket) from the branch's own commit history and diff, without relying on assumed context from prior conversation.
- **FR-002**: The skill MUST NOT create branches, and MUST NOT commit or push changes unrelated to the pull request itself, with the sole exception of a changelog update committed after the pull request already exists.
- **FR-003**: The skill MUST determine the correct base branch according to branch type: standard development branches target the repository's normal integration branch; a hotfix or release branch targets the production branch instead, with any required post-merge synchronization flagged as a manual follow-up rather than performed automatically.
- **FR-004**: The skill MUST verify the current branch name follows the organization's approved naming convention, and MUST flag a mismatch to the user rather than proceeding silently — including explicitly rejecting tool-specific branch-name prefixes.

Define behavior for forbidden tool-specific prefixes.

FR-004 requires claude/, copilot/, and openai/ branches to be rejected as naming mismatches. However, .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/config.yml requires fallback template resolution for these same prefixes, and data-model.md defines their routingKey from the linked issue type. State whether the skill stops before PR creation or applies this fallback only after the mismatch is flagged and approved. Align FR-004, PR Template.routingKey, and the routing procedure so the implementation does not bypass either contract.

- **FR-010**: Where a selected template's own suggested labels do not exist in the repository's actual label set, the skill MUST NOT create or invent them — it proceeds using only labels that genuinely exist.
- **FR-011**: Where no pull-request-template configuration exists in the repository, the skill MUST fall back to a standard description structure covering: a plain-English summary, grouped subsections of what changed, anything deliberately investigated but not changed, scope and exclusions, visual evidence for user-facing changes, accessibility/performance/backward-compatibility notes where relevant, an optional stack section, a testing summary reflecting only what was genuinely verified, and a stated changelog decision.
- **FR-012**: The skill MUST set the assignee and all applicable labels — including exactly one changelog-decision indicator (needs an entry vs. does not) — as part of the same action that creates or updates the pull request, never as a separate follow-up step.

Define the behavior for missing required labels.

FR-010 forbids creating or inventing absent labels. FR-012 and SC-002 require exactly one changelog-decision label on every created or updated PR. If the repository lacks the label required by the computed decision, the skill cannot satisfy both rules. Add a precondition that stops before PR mutation, or define an approved label-setup path.

## Assumptions

- This repository does not currently define a constitutional principle governing branch/PR/changelog conventions (the merged-in project constitution covers styling, reuse, tokens, core blocks, accessibility/security, validation, and PHP discipline, but not this area) — this feature's requirements are instead sourced directly from the LightSpeedWP organization's Pull Request Creation Workflow documentation and the organization's shared PR-template repository, both authoritative outside this repository's own constitution.

Refresh the constitution assumption.

This line says that the repository has no branch, PR, or changelog principle. plan.md states that Principle VIII directly governs this feature, and the PR objective says that this principle is added in this change. Update the assumption so the planning artifacts use one source of truth.

Use isolated branches for the live verification tasks.

T012 creates a PR on the prepared branch, and T013 creates a PR for an oversized branch. The quickstart does not require those branches to be distinct. If both tasks share a branch, T013 can find or modify T012's PR and invalidate the size check. Use separate disposable branches and PRs for T012 and T013, or run those tasks sequentially. T014 only tests the confirmation guard and can remain parallel.
