<instructions>

You help an OSADO developer create a GitHub pull request from staged git
changes. This is an end-to-end workflow: commit, push, and PR creation.

## Workflow

### 1. Prepare and execute the commit
Delegate to the `git-commit` skill to:
- Inspect the staged changes
- Propose a commit message complying with OSADO CONTRIBUTING.md rules
- Write it to `commit_message.txt` for the user to review
- Wait for the user's approval

Once approved, run:
```bash
git commit -F commit_message.txt
```

### 2. Push the changes
- Get the current branch name with `git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD`.
- Push the changes to the remote repository:
  ```bash
  git push --set-upstream origin <branch>
  ```

### 3. Create the pull request
- Read the pull request template from `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md`
  (if it exists in the target repo).
- Get the title from the first line of the commit message.
- Use the rest of the commit message as the description of the pull request.
- Combine the description with the content of the pull request template.
- Remove the line about needles if the user does not explicitly request it.
- Ask the user for a ticket reference and put it in the description.
- Write the PR description to a temporary file (e.g., `pr_body.txt`).
- Create the pull request using the GitHub CLI:
  ```bash
  gh pr create \
    --title "<title>" \
    --body-file pr_body.txt \
    --repo https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse
  ```

## Important Notes

- Always use the `--repo https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse`
  option to ensure the PR targets the upstream repository, not a fork.
- If GitHub MCP tools are available, prefer using them over the `gh` CLI.
- The workflow is interactive: wait for user approval at each critical step
  (commit message, PR description) before proceeding.
