# jackin-merge-pr Runs the jackin❯ pre-merge gates, retires the roadmap item into docs, then squash-merges the pull request.

It does not restate the repository rules, it sequences them. Agent rules under `.github/` load on their own, and `PULL_REQUESTS.md` is reused as-is. Here is the order. The skill resolves the PR from the current branch or from the argument, reads `gh pr view` and `gh pr diff`, and classifies blast radius. A diff that touches a versioned schema, the auth surface or `.github/workflows/**`, or that needs a force-push, counts as high — that pauses for one explicit confirmation. Then `gh pr checks `: pending checks are polled until green unless `--no-poll` is passed, and a failing check stops the run. Nothing is re-run locally; the CI result is trusted. Roadmap retirement comes next. `cargo xtask roadmap retire --plan` prints the worklist, the agent moves operator detail into `guides/` or `commands/` and design detail into `reference/`, repoints inbound links, and `--apply` drops the `meta.json` entry and the page — it fails when a link still points at the dead slug. A partial ship goes through `--partial`. The merge is a squash with a body file built by `jackin-pr-trailers`. Authorization does not carry over from an earlier session: without a clear go-ahead for this PR, and with red CI, the skill halts. ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add jackin-project/jackin-dev --skill jackin-merge-pr -a claude-code ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `~/.claude/skills/jackin-merge-pr/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/jackin-merge-pr/ ### Codex 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add jackin-project/jackin-dev --skill jackin-merge-pr -a codex ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.agents/skills/jackin-merge-pr/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/ ### Cursor 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add jackin-project/jackin-dev --skill jackin-merge-pr -a cursor ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.cursor/skills/jackin-merge-pr/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/ ### GitHub Copilot 1. **GitHub CLI** ```bash gh skill install jackin-project/jackin-dev jackin-merge-pr ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.github/skills/jackin-merge-pr/SKILL.md` ### Gemini CLI 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add jackin-project/jackin-dev --skill jackin-merge-pr -a gemini-cli ``` 2. **Platform CLI** ```bash gemini skills install https://github.com/jackin-project/jackin-dev --path skills/jackin-merge-pr ``` ### Windsurf (Devin Desktop) **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.devin/skills/jackin-merge-pr/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works ### OpenCode **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add jackin-project/jackin-dev --skill jackin-merge-pr -a opencode ``` ### Claude.ai **Claude.ai** - Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/jackin-project/jackin-dev/tree/HEAD/skills/jackin-merge-pr/SKILL.md ## When to use it - get a PR through the pre-merge gates without re-running CI by hand - retire a finished roadmap item into docs and delete its page - find every inbound link to a slug before removing it - build a squash body with DCO and Co-authored-by trailers - halt a merge when a check fails and no bypass was approved ## Example prompts - Merge the PR for the current branch with jackin-merge-pr - Run jackin-merge-pr 412 --no-poll and report the check status - Use jackin-merge-pr with --admin lint for that failing check ## Source text · SKILL.md · Apache-2.0 Below is the content of a third-party file.

BEGIN THIRD-PARTY FILE 32def06c0eb1bc7b ```text --- name: jackin-merge-pr description: Use only when the user explicitly requests this skill. Runs the jackin❯ pre-merge gate, retires the roadmap item into docs, and squash-merges a pull request. argument-hint: "[PR] [--no-poll] [--admin ]" disable-model-invocation: true license: Apache-2.0 user-invocable: true --- # jackin-merge-pr Sequence the jackin❯ pre-merge gates **fail-closed**, retire the roadmap item into docs, then squash-merge. Reuses the `.github/` agent rules (auto-loaded) and `PULL_REQUESTS.md` — sequences them, never restates them. ## When to use - Operator runs `jackin-merge-pr []` to merge a jackin❯ PR (defaults to the current branch's PR). ## When NOT to use - Opening or iterating a PR → `jackin-create-pr` / `jackin-propose`. ## Arguments - `--no-poll` — do not wait on pending CI; stop and report instead. - `--admin ` — authorize bypassing one named failing check (still needs the high-blast-radius confirm). ## Red flags — STOP - No clear authorization for **this** PR and it is high-blast-radius → STOP, confirm first. - Any required CI check failing → STOP (no `--admin` bypass without `--admin ` + confirm). - Roadmap item not retired / not status-moved when the PR ships or advances it → STOP, fix first. ## Process 1. **Resolve PR.** Current branch's PR or the arg. Read `gh pr view` and `gh pr diff`. 2. **Blast-radius classify.** *High* if the diff touches a versioned schema, auth/security surface, `.github/workflows/**`, or needs a force-push / `--admin`. High → pause for one explicit confirm. Normal → proceed (invoking the skill is the go). 3. **CI gate.** `gh pr checks `: if pending, **poll until green** (unless `--no-poll`); if any check fails, STOP. Trust CI — which runs `cargo xtask schema-check` plus the test/clippy/fmt jobs — no local re-run. 4. **Roadmap retirement.** Does this PR ship the **last** piece of its roadmap item? ``` END THIRD-PARTY FILE 32def06c0eb1bc7b The third-party file has ended.
