CI PR Helper

Overview

Run project checks locally, then prepare and open a PR with a clear title and summary.

Workflow

Ensure you are on a feature branch (not main).
Run local checks via the script in scripts/.
Draft a PR title/body using the template below.
If gh is available and authenticated, run gh pr create yourself; otherwise, surface the exact command for the user to execute manually.

Local checks

Run:

./.codex/skills/ci-pr-helper/scripts/run_ci_checks.sh

If it fails due to missing tools, install uv, cargo, or Python deps, then rerun.

PR creation

Draft a conventional title (e.g., feat:/fix:/ci:) and use:

## Summary
- ...

## Testing
- uv run pytest
- cargo test --manifest-path rust/lance-context/Cargo.toml
- cargo fmt --manifest-path rust/lance-context/Cargo.toml -- --check
- cargo clippy --manifest-path rust/lance-context/Cargo.toml --all-targets -- -D warnings
- ruff format --check python/
- ruff check python/
- pyright

If you need to check auth status, you may still run:

gh auth status

When ready:

If gh is ready to use, execute:

gh pr create --title "<title>" --body "<body>"

Some environments emit a spurious Unsupported subcommand 'pr' warning before running gh; ignore that message and continue with the command.
If gh is missing or fails, print the command instead so the user can run it locally.
