tools
Iterate on a GitHub pull request — drive it through CI, code review, and QA until it is merge-ready. Poll verification layers with `gh` CLI, diagnose and fix CI failures, address review feedback, retry flaky checks, push fixes, and repeat. The agent is the orchestration loop.
development
Guides technical explanations toward flowing, direct, conversational prose. This skill should be used for engineering chat, design discussion, architecture analysis, code-review explanations, and technical recommendations that should be concise without becoming fragmented or vague.
tools
This skill should be used when the user asks to "set up a Jira automation to create pull requests", "poll Jira for create-pr issues", "automatically create GitHub PRs from Jira tickets", "deploy a Jira issue-to-PR automation", "create a Jira to GitHub PR workflow", or mentions automating GitHub PR creation from a Jira label. Deploys a cron-based OpenHands automation that watches a Jira Cloud project for issues labeled with a configurable label (default: "create-pr") and spawns an agent conversation to create a GitHub pull request for each new issue found. The target GitHub repository is read from the body of the Jira ticket - no repo parameter is required at deploy time.
tools
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create an automation", "schedule a task", "set up a cron job", "webhook integration", "event-triggered automation", or mentions automations, scheduled tasks, cron scheduling, or webhook events in OpenHands Cloud.
