# Create pull request

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | User asks to create a PR, open or update a draft PR, write or refresh a PR description, revise an existing PR body for reviewer context, or append GitHub issue and Linear ticket references to a PR body. |
| Authority | Human-gated: requires explicit human invocation and preview confirmation before each remote mutation. The write set is one GitHub PR: create or update its title, body, draft state, head, and base, or append one `#### Issues` block to its body. Rollback is `gh pr edit` restoring the prior body or closing the created PR. |
| Side effect | Creates or updates a GitHub PR with a descriptive title and body, optionally as a draft; rewrites an existing PR body; or appends one `#### Issues` block. Remote mutation on GitHub, bounded to one PR. |
| Done | The mode's done state holds: a created or updated PR whose remote title, body, draft state, head, and base match the preview (full, quick); a remote PR body that gives reviewers context the diff cannot, confirmed by a fresh read (describe); or a fresh remote read showing one non-duplicate `#### Issues` block with both supplied references (link-issues). |
