Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

By bendrucker/claude (GitHub) · coding · 18 stars · scanned at commit 497d619

Update a pull request or merge request body to reflect the current state of changes. Use when a PR/MR has evolved through additional commits and the body needs to reflect what will be merged.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'pull-request-update' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'pull-request-update' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named pull-request-update already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/bendrucker/claude' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '497d619eb22e6f93dd49c4d8f6ff4a52578e0949' -- 'plugins/pull-request/skills/update' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/pull-request/skills/update' ~/.agents/skills/'pull-request-update' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'pull-request-update' ~/.claude/skills/'pull-request-update' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
