Merge Pull Request

Merge a pull request using gh pr merge --admin.

Input

the user's request

Step 1: Determine the Target PR

Parse the user's request to identify the PR to merge:

Case A: PR number or URL is provided

• Extract the PR number from the argument
• Examples: 123, #123, https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/123

Case B: No argument provided

• Get the PR associated with the current branch:

  gh pr view --json number,title,state

Case C: Unable to determine the PR

If the PR cannot be determined (e.g., no PR exists for the current branch, or the argument is ambiguous), ask the user to specify which PR to merge.

Step 2: Verify the PR

Before merging, confirm the PR details:

gh pr view <pr_number> --json number,title,state,mergeable,author,baseRefName,headRefName

Check:

1. The PR state is OPEN
2. Display the PR title and number to the user for confirmation

If the PR is not open or not mergeable, inform the user and stop.

Step 3: Check GitHub Actions Workflow Status

Verify that all CI checks have passed before merging:

gh pr checks <pr_number>

Check:

1. All workflow checks show pass status
2. No checks are pending or fail

If any checks have failed or are still running, inform the user and ask whether to:

• Wait for pending checks to complete
• Investigate failed checks before merging
• Proceed with merge anyway (using --admin will bypass required checks)

Step 4: Merge the PR

Execute the merge command:

gh pr merge <pr_number> --admin --merge

Important: Only merge ONE PR at a time. If multiple PRs are somehow specified, ask the user which single PR to merge.

Step 5: Comment on the PR

After the merge succeeds, leave a thank-you comment mentioning the PR author:

gh pr comment <pr_number> --body "@<author_login> Thank you!"

Use the author.login value obtained in Step 2 for the mention.

Step 6: Report Result

After merging:

1. Confirm the PR was successfully merged
2. Display the merged PR number and title

Step 7: Clean Up Local Branch

If the local branch exists, please clean up the local branch. Execute:

git checkout main && git pull --prune && git branch -d <branch-name>

Where <branch-name> is the head branch name from Step 2 (e.g., fix/rulesync-import-targets).
