PR Writer

Added March 5, 2026 Source: Sentry team
Curated

Opens a PR with the context reviewers actually need.

Part of: Solo developer baseline

I use pr-writer when I open a PR or refresh its title and body. It writes a cover note for reviewers, not a changelog or a file-by-file dump. The install name is pr-writer.

Installation

This skill is self-contained. Copy the SKILL.md below directly into your project to get started.

.claude/skills/pr-writer/SKILL.md    # Claude Code
.cursor/skills/pr-writer/SKILL.md    # Cursor

Or install as a personal skill (available across all your projects):

~/.claude/skills/pr-writer/SKILL.md

You can also install using the skills CLI:

npx skills add getsentry/skills --skill pr-writer

Requires Node.js 18+.

# Alias: create-pr

This skill name is kept for compatibility.

Use `sentry-skills:pr-writer` as the canonical skill for creating and editing pull requests.

If invoked via `create-pr`, run the same workflow and conventions documented in `sentry-skills:pr-writer`.
