Write PR Message

Overview

Write a concise, high-signal GitHub pull request message that explains intent, impact, and risk without duplicating information already visible in GitHub.

PR Structure

Summary

  • 1–3 sentences.
  • Explain what this PR does and why it exists.
  • Focus on behavior and outcome, not implementation details.
  • Do not list files, commits, tickets, or branches.

What Changed

  • 1–3 short bullet points.
  • Describe behavioral or functional changes only.
  • No file names or low-level implementation details.
  • Skip this section if it adds no value.

Testing

  • 1–2 bullets describing how this was verified.
  • Be concrete (tests added, manual flows checked, API exercised).
  • Avoid generic statements like "tests passed".

Screenshots (UI only, optional)

  • Include screenshots only if this PR changes UI or UX.
  • Prefer inline images over external links.
  • Omit this section entirely for non-UI changes.

Risk / Rollout

  • Answer briefly:
    • Is this feature-flagged?
    • Is a migration required?
    • How can this be reverted?
  • "No / Not needed" is a valid and useful answer.

Notes for Reviewers (Optional)

  • Call out:
    • Tricky logic
    • Non-obvious decisions
    • Areas that deserve extra attention
  • Keep this short and targeted.

Rules

  • Keep the entire PR message scannable.
  • Avoid repeating information GitHub already shows.
  • Prefer clarity over completeness.
  • Omit sections that don't apply rather than filling them with placeholders.
  • Always write PR message in markdown code.

Steps

  1. Review the changes and commits on the branch.
  2. Write the Summary first.
  3. Add only the sections that meaningfully help a reviewer.
  4. Output a clean PR message ready to paste into GitHub.
