Help me create a pull request with a well-crafted description.
## Arguments
`$ARGUMENTS`
- `--draft` or `-d`: Create as draft PR
- `--base <branch>`: Specify base branch (default: main)
- Examples: `/pr --draft`, `/pr --base develop`
## Jira Configuration
Read Jira config from the project's `CLAUDE.md` if present (look for a
`## Jira` section with `Base URL` and `Ticket Pattern`). If absent, prefer
the `mcp__plugin_atlassian_atlassian__*` tools (dormant unless the atlassian plugin is enabled; they return canonical URLs from
the API), or ask the user. Do not assume any specific organisation's URL.
- **Common ticket patterns**: `[A-Z]+-\d+` (e.g. `ABC-123`, `PROJ-456`), `#123`, `GH-123`
## Steps
### Step 1: Understand current state
```bash
git branch --show-current
git log origin/main..HEAD --oneline
git diff origin/main..HEAD --stat
```
### Step 2: Analyze all commits being included
- Read each commit message
- Look at the actual changes with `git diff origin/main..HEAD`
- Identify the main themes and purpose
### Step 3: Check for related context
- Look for ticket/issue numbers in branch name or commits
- Check if there are related specs in `specs/` directory
- Note any breaking changes or migrations
### Step 4: Extract Jira context from branch name
Extract ticket ID from branch name patterns:
- `feature/BIL-123-description` → `BIL-123`
- `fix/BIL-456-bug-fix` → `BIL-456`
- `BIL-789/some-feature` → `BIL-789`
**If Jira MCP is available (`mcp__plugin_atlassian_atlassian__getJiraIssue`):**
- Fetch ticket summary, description, acceptance criteria
- Extract linked issues and epic context
- Auto-populate "Related Issues" section in PR with ticket details
**If Jira MCP is NOT available but ticket ID found:**
- Add a Jira link to the PR body using the project CLAUDE.md base URL:
`Related: [TICKET-ID](<base_url>/TICKET-ID)`
- If no base URL is configured, include the ticket ID as plain text and note:
"Jira base URL not configured in project CLAUDE.md - add manually if needed"
### Step 5: Check for PR template
Search for PR templates in order:
1. `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md`
2. `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/default.md`
3. `.github/pull_request_template.md`
4. `docs/pull_request_template.md`
**If template found:**
- Use template as base structure for PR body
- Merge Jira context and commit analysis into template sections
- Fill in template placeholders where possible
**If no template found:**
- Use default structure (see Step 6)
### Step 6: Generate PR description
**Default structure (if no template):**
```markdown
## Summary
<1-3 bullet points explaining what this PR does and why>
## Changes
<Grouped list of significant changes>
## Testing
<How this was tested or how reviewers should test>
## Notes for Reviewers
<Any context that helps review: focus areas, known issues, follow-ups>
## Related Issues
- [TICKET-ID](<base_url>/TICKET-ID) - {summary from Jira if available}
```
### Step 7: Ask for confirmation before creating
- Show the proposed title and description
- Confirm the base branch (usually main)
- If Jira ticket found, confirm linking is correct
- Ask if ready to create
### Step 8: Create the PR (only when confirmed)
```bash
gh pr create --title "<title>" --body "<body>"
```
## Output
Present the PR title and description for review, then create when approved.
Return the PR URL when complete.
