Pipeline Summary

Create a GitHub issue documenting bugs encountered during a pipeline run and a PR from the feature branch into the target branch.

Arguments

/autoskillit:pipeline-summary {bug_report_path} {feature_branch} {target_branch} {workspace} [{closing_issue}]

• bug_report_path — Path to the JSON file containing bug metadata
• feature_branch — Name of the branch containing all accumulated fixes
• target_branch — Branch to create the PR against (e.g., "main")
• workspace — Path to the git repository workspace
• closing_issue — (Optional) GitHub issue number whose ## Requirements section should be extracted and embedded in the PR body. When absent or empty, requirements extraction is skipped.

When to Use

• End of a pipeline run with collect_on_branch enabled
• Any pipeline that accumulates fixes on a feature branch and needs a summary

Critical Constraints

NEVER:

• Fail the pipeline if gh is not available or not authenticated — write a local summary instead
• Create empty issues or PRs (skip if no bugs to report)
• Modify any source code — this skill only creates GitHub artifacts and a summary file

ALWAYS:

• Check gh auth status before attempting GitHub operations
• Push the feature branch before creating the PR
• Write a local summary markdown file regardless of GitHub availability
• Output summary_path=<path> for capture by the orchestrator
• If GitHub operations succeed, also output issue_url=<url> and pr_url=<url>

Workflow

Step 1: Parse Arguments

Parse up to five positional arguments from the prompt. The fifth (closing_issue) is optional.

Step 2: Read Bug Report

Read the JSON file at {bug_report_path}. Expected structure:

[
  {
    "step": "string — pipeline step where failure occurred",
    "error": "string — error description",
    "fix": "string — what was done to fix it",
    "iteration": "number — which bugfix iteration"
  }
]

If the file is empty, contains [], or doesn't exist, write a clean-run summary and exit successfully.

Step 3: Write Local Summary

Write a markdown summary to {workspace}/run-summary.md:

• Title: "Pipeline Run Summary — {date}"
• Bug count and fix count
• Table of all bugs with step, error, fix, iteration
• Branch info: feature branch name, target branch

Output: summary_path={workspace}/run-summary.md

Step 4: Check GitHub Availability

Run gh auth status 2>/dev/null. If exit code is non-zero or gh is not found:

• Log "GitHub CLI not available or not authenticated — skipping issue/PR creation"
• Exit successfully (the local summary is sufficient)

Step 5: Push Feature Branch

cd {workspace}
REMOTE=$(git remote get-url upstream >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo upstream || echo origin)
git push -u "$REMOTE" {feature_branch}

If push fails (no remote, network issue), log the error and exit successfully.

Step 5b: Fetch Requirements from Closing Issue (if closing_issue known)

• If closing_issue was provided as the sixth argument:

  gh issue view {closing_issue} --json body -q .body
  

  Extract the ## Requirements section: requirements_section = everything from ## Requirements to the next ## heading or end of body, whichever comes first.
• If gh auth is unavailable or closing_issue is not provided: skip gracefully — requirements_section = "".

Step 6: Create GitHub Issue

Write the issue body to a temp file, then:

TEMP_ISSUE_BODY="{{AUTOSKILLIT_TEMP}}/pipeline-summary/issue_body_$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).md"
mkdir -p "$(dirname "${TEMP_ISSUE_BODY}")"
# [write the issue body content to ${TEMP_ISSUE_BODY} here]
gh issue create \
  --title "Pipeline Run Summary — {date}: {bug_count} bug(s) fixed" \
  --body-file "${TEMP_ISSUE_BODY}" \
  --label "pipeline-summary"

Capture the issue URL from stdout. If the label doesn't exist, retry without --label.

Output: issue_url={url}

Step 7: Create Pull Request

Write the PR body to a temp file (reference the issue), then:

TEMP_PR_BODY="{{AUTOSKILLIT_TEMP}}/pipeline-summary/pr_body_$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).md"
mkdir -p "$(dirname "${TEMP_PR_BODY}")"
# [write the PR body content to ${TEMP_PR_BODY} here]
gh pr create \
  --title "Pipeline fixes — {date}" \
  --body-file "${TEMP_PR_BODY}" \
  --base {target_branch} \
  --head {feature_branch}

The PR body (temp_pr_body) contains:

• ## Summary — bug count and branch info
• ## Requirements (if requirements_section is non-empty from Step 5b)
• Closes #{closing_issue} (if closing_issue was provided)
• Bug table from Step 3

Capture the PR URL from stdout.

Output: pr_url={url}

Output

• Always: summary_path={workspace}/run-summary.md
• If GitHub available: issue_url={url} and pr_url={url}
