gh-stack-pr-skill

A Claude Code skill for working with stacked pull requests via GitHub's official gh stack extension.

It exists to stop the agent from hand-rolling stack management with git rebase --update-refs and manual gh pr create --base calls when a supported tool already does it — and to make it ask before stacking PRs that don't actually depend on each other.

Install

Personal (all projects):

git clone https://github.com/nir-mo/gh-stack-pr-skill.git ~/.claude/skills/stacked-pr

Single project:

git clone https://github.com/nir-mo/gh-stack-pr-skill.git .claude/skills/stacked-pr

Then install the extension it drives:

gh extension install github/gh-stack

Use

Ask Claude for anything stack-shaped — "stack a PR on top of this", "restack", "split this into a stack" — and the skill loads. See SKILL.md for the full workflow.

Adapting it

The skill is written for a generic repo. If yours has conventions gh stack submit bypasses — required labels, a title format, a post-PR step — see the Adapt to your repo section of SKILL.md and edit it in.
