Summary
Replaces the free-form PR template with a structured three-section format and
adds a
/write-pr-descriptionClaude command so agents and contributors cangenerate high-quality PR descriptions automatically.
Why
The current PR template asks contributors to answer "what" and "why" but
provides little structure beyond that. In practice, PR descriptions vary widely
in quality and organization, making reviews harder and reducing the long-term
value of the git history.
A structured template (Summary / Why / What Changed) gives contributors a clear
framework to follow, while the Claude command automates the process for agent
workflows — reading the diff, analyzing the change, and producing a description
that follows the template.
What changed
Interface changes
None.
Behavioral changes
None. This only affects PR description authoring, not SDK behavior.
Internal changes
.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md— Rewritten with three sections(Summary, Why, What Changed) and ordered sub-sections under "What Changed":
Interface changes → Behavioral changes → Internal changes. Includes inline
guidance and examples in HTML comments so it works standalone for non-Claude
contributors.
.claude/commands/write-pr-description.md— New Claude command (invocablevia
/write-pr-description) with a four-phase workflow: gather context →analyze → write → update PR. References the PR template as the single source
of truth for structure.
How is this tested?
N/A — no code changes, only documentation and tooling configuration.
