--- name: submit-suggestion description: Propose declarative configuration updates securely by committing file changes and submitting GitHub Pull Requests (PRs) for SRE review. --- # submit-suggestion - Secure GitOps Pull Request Orchestrator This skill equips the Platform Agent to propose declarative file updates, GKE infrastructure adjustments, or configuration changes securely by committing local repository changes and submitting GitHub Pull Requests (PRs) for human review. ## When to Use - **Declarative File Provisioning:** Triggered when new GKE manifests or configs are requested. - **Configuration Upgrades:** Triggered when upgrading version configurations, security patches, or network policies. - **Governance Policy Syncs:** Triggered when compliance playbooks or settings require updates. _Crucially, you are strictly forbidden from executing direct, manual mutations. All changes must flow through this secure PR suggestion skill._ ## Execution Instructions Follow these steps to make, commit, and submit your GitOps suggestions asynchronously: ### Step 1: Lease a Private Workspace and Branch Never run `git` from wherever your shell happens to be. You share one volume with every other agent in this pod — the fleet audits, the other kanban workers — and a bare `git checkout` there lands inside a clone somebody else is mid-way through. `prepare` hands you a clone that is yours alone: ```bash ./skills/submit-suggestion/scripts/submit_suggestion.py prepare \ --branch "platform-agent/-" ``` _(Example: `platform-agent/provision-mercury-09` or `platform-agent/upgrade-policy-baseline`)_ It clones and refreshes the GitOps repository, takes the branch, and prints one JSON line: ```json { "workspace": "/opt/data/gitops/t_9f3c1e07/acme__fleet", "lease": "t_9f3c1e07", "branch": "platform-agent/provision-mercury-09", "base": "main", "repo": "acme/fleet", "started_from": "origin/main" } ``` **Keep that whole line. Step 3 needs `workspace` and `lease` back.** The credential proxy refuses `git add`, `commit`, `checkout`, `push` and every other tree-mutating verb outside a leased workspace, so a command run anywhere else comes back as a security refusal rather than quietly damaging another agent's work. `base` is the repository's own default branch, not a hardcoded `main` — `started_from` records what the branch was actually cut from. When the branch already exists on the remote (Step 5, addressing feedback on an open PR), `started_from` is `origin/` and your commits land **on top of** the ones already under review. When it does not, the branch is cut fresh from `origin/`. ### Step 2: Make and Commit the Changes 1. Generate or edit the required declarative files **inside the returned `workspace`**. 2. Stage and commit the changes locally following Conventional Commit standards. **CRITICAL SECURITY RULE:** You **must** explicitly stage only the targeted declarative manifest files you generated or modified. **Never use `git add .` or `git add -A`** to prevent committing transient debugging files, volatile local credentials, or workspace logs: ```bash cd git add git commit -m "" ``` _(Example: `git add config/manifest.yaml && git commit -m "feat(fleet): provision GKE operator for mercury-09"` or `git add policies/baseline.yaml && git commit -m "fix(policy): restrict baseline network policy ingress"`)_ ### Step 3: Call the Secure Submit Suggestion Script Invoke the same helper with `submit` to handle the GitHub App token exchange, git credential configuration, branch push, and Pull Request creation. Pass **both** the `workspace` and the `lease` from Step 1 — the script verifies the lease on that tree is still yours and refuses outright if it belongs to another agent: ```bash ./skills/submit-suggestion/scripts/submit_suggestion.py submit \ --workspace "" \ --lease "" \ --branch "platform-agent/-" \ --title "" \ --body "This Pull Request was generated automatically by the **Platform Agent** control plane. ### 🚀 Functional Impact: Please review the code diffs and merge this PR to trigger the GitOps CI/CD rollout!" ``` `--lease` is not optional bookkeeping. `prepare` and `submit` are separate processes, and outside a kanban card there is no session identity for `submit` to re-derive the lease from — so without it the script stops and tells you to pass it, rather than inventing an id that could never match the workspace. The script returns the clean, live GitHub PR URL. If a Pull Request for this branch is already open, it updates that one's title and body in place and returns its URL — resubmitting is not an error. ### Step 4: Confirm Suggestion Record the PR link returned by the script, update the pending status inside your local state registry (if applicable), and present a clean, human-readable confirmation containing the PR URL link back to the user. ### Step 5: Addressing Review Feedback on an Existing PR When you are asked to **address review comments / reviewer feedback** on an existing PR, **read the comments yourself — never expect them pasted into the task.** You have GitHub access via the minted, repo-scoped App token (cached into `gh` and the git credential store by `scripts/github_token_refresh.py`). 1. **Refresh auth** if a call is unauthorized: `./scripts/github_token_refresh.py`. 2. **Read the PR and all its feedback** — both the conversation and inline (diff) review comments: ```bash gh pr view --repo --json title,url,headRefName,body,comments,reviews gh api repos//pulls//comments # inline review-thread comments ``` 3. **Apply the requested changes on the PR's own branch.** Lease a workspace for that branch the same way Step 1 does — `prepare --branch ` — and work inside the `workspace` it prints. Because the branch already exists on the remote, `prepare` bases it on `origin/`, so the commits already under review are still there and yours go on top; `started_from` in its JSON says which. Make the targeted edits, then — following the **same CRITICAL security rule as Step 2** — stage only the specific files (**never `git add .` / `-A`**), commit with a Conventional Commit message, and run `submit` with the same `--workspace`, `--lease` and `--branch ` so the existing PR updates in place. `submit` pushes with `--force-with-lease`: it will update the branch your workspace fetched, and refuse rather than overwrite one somebody else has moved in the meantime. 4. **Reply on the PR** summarizing what changed (`gh pr comment --repo --body "..."`), then relay a clean confirmation (PR URL + what you changed) back through your kanban result. Never ask the requester to paste the comment text — fetching it from GitHub and addressing it is your job.
