## What it does

om-open-pr wraps up repository changes by committing them and pushing the current branch. Before creating a pull request, it checks whether one already exists for that branch; if so, it updates and reuses it. Otherwise, it opens a ready-for-review PR against the configured base branch. It applies the SDLC labels when labeling is enabled and the labels are available.

For issue-driven runs, the skill links the issue to the PR, returns the issue to the tracker, and releases its lock. A caller can also hand the chain to another skill, transferring the chain lock to the PR. The final `PR:` reference, and `Issue:` reference for issue-driven runs, let downstream steps locate their work.

The agent pipeline and tracker descriptor must be configured first; if either is missing, the workflow calls `om-setup-agent-pipeline`. A network failure during push gets one retry. If that fails too, the skill stops and releases the lock.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-open-pr -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/om-open-pr/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/om-open-pr/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-open-pr -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/om-open-pr/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-open-pr -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/om-open-pr/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install open-mercato/skills om-open-pr
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/om-open-pr/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-open-pr -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/open-mercato/skills --path skills/om-open-pr
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/om-open-pr/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add open-mercato/skills --skill om-open-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/open-mercato/skills/tree/HEAD/skills/om-open-pr/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- commit changes on the working branch and push them to origin
- reuse an existing pull request instead of opening a duplicate
- open a ready-for-review PR against the configured base branch
- link a tracker issue to the PR and hand it to the next skill

## Example prompts
- Commit the changes on this branch and open a pull request ready for review.
- Check whether this branch already has a PR; update it if it does, and avoid creating another.
- Open a PR for issue `ISSUE-123` and hand the chain to `om-auto-review-pr`.

name: om-open-pr
description: Shared PR opener for the auto pipeline — commits the worktree, pushes, reuses an existing PR or opens a ready (non-draft) PR against the configured base branch with the unified body template, applies the full SDLC label set with rationale comments, and for issue-driven runs hands the issue back and releases the lock. Emits the `PR:`/`Issue:` chaining reference lines.

# Open PR

You are the shared PR-opening step of the agent pipeline. Callers include the autofix chain (`om-verify-in-repo` → `om-root-cause` → `om-fix` → **om-open-pr** → `om-auto-review-pr`, driven by `om-auto-fix-issue`), `om-auto-create-pr`, `om-auto-continue-pr` / `-loop`, `om-auto-write-spec`, and `om-auto-implement-spec`. The previous step edited files, added tests, and ran the validation gate. The repo is checked out on an isolated branch in the current working directory, with uncommitted changes staged or unstaged.

Your job: ship the work — commit, push, open (or reuse) the PR, label it, summarize, hand off — then release any lock. **You must end your message with the `PR: #<number> (link: <url>)` reference line** (plus `Issue:` when issue-driven) so the next step has something to reference.

## Arguments

- `{issueId}` (optional) — tracker issue id. When present the run is issue-driven: the body carries the linkage line, and step 8 hands the issue back and releases the `in-progress` lock. When absent (brief- or spec-driven runs), skip everything issue-specific.
- `{repo}` (optional) — `owner/name`; infer from git remote if omitted
- `{category}` (optional) — one of `bug | feature | refactor | security | dependencies | documentation`; drives the title prefix and category label. Infer from the diff and the previous step's summary when omitted.
- `--title <text>` (optional) — full PR title; otherwise derive `<prefix>(<area>): <one-line summary>` from the previous step's summary
- `--plan <path>` (optional) — execution-plan path; adds the `Tracking plan:` / `Status:` lines and the `## Progress` section to the body so `om-auto-continue-pr` can resume
- `--draft` (optional) — open as a draft. Only for explicitly incomplete work (spec-only design PRs, interrupted runs). Default is **ready for review**: a completed autonomous run leaves a ready PR.
- `--summary-file <path>` (optional) — caller-provided run-summary body (the caller's own summary structure); when present, post it via **comment-pr** after labeling
- `--handoff <next-skill>` (optional) — the caller's chain continues on this PR with `<next-skill>`; step 8 then transfers the chain's `in-progress` lock onto the PR before releasing the issue lock. Without it, the PR is left unclaimed — correct only when this skill is the chain's last step.
