Root cause

The create-pr skill stopped at the merge. Two follow-up steps were left to memory, and both got missed recently:

Change

  • Step 5 (merge): add the issue reporter to the squash commit as Co-authored-by, using their verified GitHub noreply address.
  • New step 6: after merging, reply on each linked issue and on any superseded contributor PR or branch. Say what landed, in which PR, and whether it has shipped.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated merge guidance to credit issue reporters as squash-commit co-authors when their reported issue is fixed, while preserving default commit-message trailers.
    • Added post-merge guidance for replying to linked issues, superseded contributor pull requests, or branch-offer locations with details about what was merged, the pull request, and release status when applicable.

Squash merges of #2050, #2051 and #2034 left out the reporters whose issues
drove the fixes, and #2004 and #1987 got no reply after the contributor pinged.
The create-pr skill now covers both steps at merge time, so they are no longer
left to memory.

Walkthrough

The create-PR skill now specifies how to credit an issue reporter in a squash commit and how to follow up after the merge. It also describes where to post the follow-up and what release information to include when applicable.

Changes: PR workflow instructions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reporter co-author credit
.agents/skills/create-pr/SKILL.md
When a PR fixes an issue reported by someone else, the merge instructions specify how to find the reporter’s noreply address, add it as a squash-commit co-author, and pass the commit body with --body-file while retaining the default squash-body trailers. The post-merge instructions specify where to reply and what landed, including release status when applicable.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~3 minutes

  • ccusage/ccusage#2057: This PR updates the same create-PR skill with the same reporter co-author and post-merge reply instructions.
  • ccusage/ccusage#1976: This PR adds a Co-authored-by trailer for a contributor, which is related to co-author attribution.
Merge Risk: Low · up to e7c96

Reporter credit for legacy accounts remains unverified. The change is mergeable with that limitation acknowledged.

ℹ️ Minor suggestions only — the credit mechanism and the ship-status wording need tightening.

Reviewed changes — reviewed the single skill-doc change in this run:

  • Merge-step reporter credit — step 5 adds the issue reporter to the squash commit as Co-authored-by using their GitHub noreply address.
  • Post-merge replies — new step 6 requires a reply on each linked issue and any superseded contributor PR or branch, stating what landed, in which PR, and whether it has shipped.

- Line 19: Clarify the follow-up instruction around linked issues and superseded
contributor PRs or branches: when a contributor offered only a branch, direct
the reply to the original issue or discussion and mention the contributor, since
there is no branch-level comment target.
- Line 18: Update the merge instructions in the skill so that, when a reporter
needs co-author credit, the squash commit body is prepared before merging and
supplied through the merge command’s body-file option, including the reporter’s
verified GitHub noreply address as a Co-authored-by trailer. Preserve the
existing explicit-user-request and merge-condition requirements.

Reviewed changes — reviewed the delta since the prior pullfrog review (one commit touching the create-pr skill doc):

  • Named the squash-body mechanism — step 5 now specifies --body-file, the noreply <id>+<login> format with the gh api users/<login> --jq .id lookup, and keeping the default body's trailers.
  • Fixed the ship-status wording — step 6 now says the change ships with the next release via tagpr instead of asking whether it has shipped.

Verified gh pr merge --help exposes -F, --body-file, and tagpr owns releases in this repo, so both wordings are accurate. Both previously open pullfrog threads read as resolved against the new text.

- Line 18: Update the co-author guidance in the merge instructions to avoid
assuming the ID-based noreply address is valid for every reporter; when that
address is not verified, ask the reporter for an associated address, and do not
infer the correct format from account age alone. Preserve the existing
squash-commit trailer requirements.
- Line 19: Update step 6’s post-merge reply instructions to check release status
before responding; report the shipped version if the merge has been released, or
state that release is pending instead of always saying it ships with the next
release.

✅ No new issues found.

Reviewed changes — reviewed the delta since the prior pullfrog review (bb65982 → 22f6c8c, one commit touching the create-pr skill doc):

  • Conditioned the release note — step 6 now says the post-merge reply promises the next release only when the change affects the published package, instead of unconditionally.

The conditional wording is accurate and avoids over-promising a release for docs-only changes. Both previously open pullfrog threads remain resolved against the new text.
