GitHub does not report mutation-created issue-to-PR links through closedByPullRequestsReferences(userLinkedOnly: true), so the verification in `gh.py link-issue` failed even when addCloseIssueReferences succeeded and the link existed. Drop the re-query and trust the successful mutation: the command now fails only when a link target is missing or the mutation does not return the issue. Update the tests, the gh helper memory, the PR/issue workflow memories, and the create-pr skill so they no longer promise verification. AI-assisted-by: deepseek-v4.1-flash

Creating Pull Requests
PR only on explicit request.
Branch Naming
- Primary:
issue-NNNN— one branch per GitHub issue (e.g.issue-11525). - No issue: free-form descriptive name, dash-separated, no slashes (e.g.
fix-ellipse-icon-typo,feat-auto-link-libraries). - If the user already created the branch, use it as-is — never rename.
Target Branch
Auto-detect the base branch with scripts/detect-target-branch:
TARGET=$(scripts/detect-target-branch)
This outputs staging or develop by walking the local commit graph (pure local, no remote/network). Do not ask the user for the target branch unless the tool fails.
Metadata
Always add the PR to the Main project (--project "Main") unless the user explicitly requests a different project.
Title Format
PR titles follow commit title conventions:
:emoji: Subject line (imperative, capitalized, no period, <=70 chars)
See mem:workflow/creating-commits for emoji codes. Squash merge uses the PR title as the final commit subject, so title format matters.
Description Body
Include concise sections covering:
- what changed and why;
- related GitHub issues or Taiga stories (
Closes #NNNNfor issues resolved by the PR,Relates to #NNNNfor context,Taiga #NNNN); use the explicit issue assignment process below for eachClosesissue; - screenshots or recordings for UI-visible changes;
- testing performed and residual risk;
- breaking changes or migration notes, if any.
PR descriptions follow this structure:
**Note:** This PR was created with AI assistance.
## What
<the problem or feature and its user-facing impact — short bullet items where there is more than one point>
## Why
<root cause or motivation — a short paragraph or bullets>
## How
<high-level approach and key decisions — bullet items, grouped by area (bold lead-ins) for larger PRs>
The "Note:" line is required at the top. Adjust if this is a manual (non-AI) PR.
Writing Principles
- Write for humans. The diff shows what changed. The description explains why.
- Be concise. Focus on reasoning: What was the problem? Why did it happen? How did you solve it?
- Prefer bullets over paragraphs. Short bullet items, grouped by area with bold lead-ins where helpful, are far easier to digest than prose; keep any remaining paragraph to a few sentences.
- No manual line wraps. Markdown renders adapting to the viewport; hard-wrapped lines degrade rendering. One line per paragraph or bullet, however long.
- Skip the obvious. Don't explain what
git diffalready shows.
What NOT to Include
- ❌ List of files changed (visible in diff)
- ❌ Testing steps (CI handles this)
- ❌ Screenshots unless UI-visible
- ❌ Migration notes unless breaking changes
- ❌ Regression fixes introduced during the PR (they're part of the development process, not the feature)
Explicit Issue Assignment
- For each GitHub issue that a PR resolves, run
python3 scripts/gh.py link-issue <ISSUE_NUMBER> <PR_NUMBER>after creating or editing the PR. Do not rely onCloses #NNNNin the body; it is only human-readable context. - The command calls
addCloseIssueReferencesand trusts the successful mutation: GitHub does not reliably report mutation-created links back throughclosedByPullRequestsReferences(userLinkedOnly: true), so the command exits non-zero only when a link target is missing or the mutation fails. It is safe to rerun and also works for an already merged PR; it does not close an issue retroactively. - Skip this process for
Relates to #NNNNand Taiga references, which do not represent a closing relationship.
Before Opening
- Follow
mem:workflow/creating-commitsfor commits - Run the focused tests/lints appropriate to touched modules.
- Do not force-push during review unless the maintainer workflow explicitly asks for it.
- When the user says the code is already pushed, trust that — do not verify remote branch existence via
git ls-remoteorgit fetch.
