What This Skill Does

Provides patterns for working with GitHub via the gh CLI, covering pull request creation, stacked PR workflows, squash merges, rebasing, and repository automation. Designed for teams that manage complex branching strategies or chains of dependent PRs.

Stacked PR merges normally require manual rebasing, force-pushing, and base branch updates for each PR in the chain — this skill codifies the exact sequence so nothing gets skipped or merged out of order.

When to use it

  • Merging a chain of stacked PRs into main as individual squash commits
  • Rebasing a dependent branch after its parent PR is merged
  • Creating PRs with consistent title and body formats from the terminal
  • Checking PR status and CI results without leaving the shell
  • Updating a PR's base branch after the target branch changes
