  3. Review files and risks before approving any action.
Prompt to paste
Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/gastownhall/gastown/blob/HEAD/.claude/skills/pr-list/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/pr-list, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.

PR List - Formatted Pull Request Table

Display GitHub pull requests in a clean ASCII box-drawing table format.

Usage

/pr-list [options]

Options (passed to gh pr list)

  • --state open|closed|merged|all - Filter by state (default: open)
  • --author <user> - Filter by author
  • --label <label> - Filter by label (can repeat)
  • --limit <n> - Max items to fetch (default: 30)
  • --assignee <user> - Filter by assignee
  • --draft - Show only drafts
  • --all-reviews - Include PRs with CHANGES_REQUESTED (excluded by default)

Execution Steps

  1. Run gh pr list with any provided options plus --json number,author,title,state,isDraft,reviewDecision
  2. Filter out PRs with reviewDecision="CHANGES_REQUESTED" (unless --all-reviews specified)
  3. Format output as an ASCII table using box-drawing characters
  4. Truncate titles to fit reasonable terminal width (~50 chars)
  5. Truncate author names if needed (~18 chars)
  6. Show state as OPEN/CLOSED/MERGED/DRAFT, append "(changes requested)" if filtered with --all-reviews

Output Format

Use this exact table style with box-drawing characters:

┌─────┬────────────────────┬───────────────────────────────────────────────────┬────────┐
│  PR │ Author             │ Title                                             │ State  │
├─────┼────────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────────┼────────┤
│ 123 │ username           │ feat: add new feature for something               │ OPEN   │
│ 122 │ another-user       │ fix: resolve bug in component                     │ DRAFT  │
└─────┴────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────────────────────────┴────────┘

Table Requirements

  • Use Unicode box-drawing: ┌ ┐ └ ┘ ├ ┤ ┬ ┴ ┼ │ ─
  • Right-align PR numbers
  • Left-align text columns
  • Pad columns consistently
  • Show count summary below table: "N open PRs (M drafts)"
