About this skill
What it does. Checks repository documentation and templates for contribution procedures, then applies relevant guidance to issues, branch naming, commits and pull requests. Identifies required tests or builds for the user to run and requests confirmation rather than running them.
When to use it. For work that involves filing an issue, creating a branch or commit, pushing code, or opening a pull request. It also sets boundaries for inspecting repository files and handling potentially unsafe instructions.
