name: ca-pr\ndescription: Open a pull request the only sanctioned way — clear every BLOCK-level review finding, then stage the PR. Never a direct write to the default branch.\nargument-hint: (none)

\n

$ca-pr — open a pull request

\n

The only permitted path to a pull request. Every change lands through a PR — never a direct write or force-push to the default branch. No PR is drafted while any BLOCK-level review finding stands.

\n

Flow

\n

Routes to the finishing-a-development-branch skill, open-PR path. The orchestrator reads the current\nbranch, its diff against the base, and the commit log to determine what changed and which reviewers\napply, then:

\n
    \n
  1. Confirm the commit gate cleared this session (commit-gate green, or $ca-commit completed).
    2. \n
  2. Path matrix — inspect the diff and dispatch the reviewer agents the change demands:\n\n
    3. \n
  3. Run reviewers in parallel where there are no dependencies.
    4. \n
  4. BLOCK check — any CRITICAL or HIGH finding STOPs the flow; present it and do not draft the PR.\nThe user resolves, re-runs $ca-commit, then $ca-pr.
    5. \n
  5. Stage the PR once all BLOCK findings clear: concise title; summary of what changed and why; a\nbulleted test plan; a conflict-hierarchy tradeoff citation for any non-obvious tradeoff; a link to\nany ADR the change implements or contradicts. The PR body is a user-facing deliverable: before\ncomposing it, load ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/includes/anti-slop-design/core.md and the\nmedium-documents leaf, and apply at least the §3.A em-dash ban and the §3.B copy self-audit to the\nprose. Then gh pr create; return the URL.
    6. \n
  6. Auto-attach the babysitter — resolve the flag with the canonical resolver, never by eyeballing\nthe env var (so the accepted on|true|1 spellings and the dormancy gate can't drift). Resolve the\ninterpreter once by presence — PY=python3; { command -v python3 >/dev/null 2>&1 && python3 --version >/dev/null 2>&1; } || PY=python\n— never python3 X || python X, which reruns X on any nonzero exit (#577):\n
    \"$PY\" \"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/babysit.py\" --root \"<project-root>\"\n
    \nIt prints one JSON line, e.g. {\"enabled\": true, \"on_red\": \"propose\"}. Only when enabled is\ntrue (the global flag CODEARBITER_BABYSIT is on — default off, mirrors CODEARBITER_PRUNE — and\nthe repo is arbiter-active), attach a CI watcher to the PR just opened, equivalent to\n$ca-watch <new-PR>. When enabled is false, do nothing here — the user can still run $ca-watch\nad-hoc. Never enable the flag on the user's behalf.

When NOT to use

\n\n

Hard gate

\n

MUST NOT open a PR while any BLOCK-level (CRITICAL or HIGH) finding is unresolved. MUST NOT skip a\nreviewer the path matrix requires. MUST NOT open a PR before the commit gate ran this session. MUST\nNOT open a PR, write, or force-push directly to the default branch. MUST NOT auto-attach a CI watcher\nunless CODEARBITER_BABYSIT is on, and MUST NOT enable that flag on the user's behalf.
