Validated Commit, Push, and PR

This skill ensures code quality, commits, pushes, and creates a PR if one doesn't exist.

Process

Step 1: Run Formatting Check

cd backend && cargo fmt --check

If this fails, run cargo fmt to auto-fix, then re-check.

Step 2: Run Clippy Lints

cd backend && cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings

If clippy fails, fix the issues before proceeding. Do NOT commit code with clippy warnings.

Step 3: Run Tests

cd backend && cargo test --workspace

If tests fail, fix the failing tests before proceeding. Do NOT commit code with failing tests.

Step 4: Check for Changes

git status

Review what will be committed. If there are no changes to commit, skip to Step 8 (PR creation).

Step 5: Stage Changes

git add -A

Step 6: Create Commit

Ask the user for a commit message, or generate one based on the changes.

IMPORTANT: Never include:

• "Generated with Claude Code"
• "Co-Authored-By: Claude"
• Any AI/Claude attribution

Step 7: Push to Remote

git push origin HEAD

If push fails due to upstream changes:

git pull --rebase origin HEAD && git push origin HEAD

Step 8: Check for Existing PR

gh pr list --head $(git branch --show-current) --state open

If a PR already exists for this branch, inform the user and provide the PR URL. Done.

Step 9: Create PR (if none exists)

Get the current branch and base branch:

CURRENT_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)

Create the PR:

gh pr create --title "PR title here" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- Brief description of changes

## Test plan
- [ ] Tests pass
- [ ] Lints pass

EOF
)"

PR Title: Generate from the commit message or ask user.

PR Body: Include:

• Summary of changes (2-3 bullet points)
• Test plan checklist

Do NOT include "Generated with Claude Code" or similar.

Step 10: Report Success

Provide the PR URL to the user.

Failure Handling

If ANY step fails (fmt, clippy, or tests):

1. Stop immediately
2. Report the failure to the user
3. Do NOT proceed to commit
4. Help fix the issues if requested

Quick Reference

# Full validation
cd backend && cargo fmt --check && cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings && cargo test --workspace

# Check for existing PR
gh pr list --head $(git branch --show-current) --state open

# Create PR
gh pr create --title "Title" --body "Body"
