Drupal MR

Create and manage merge requests for drupal.org projects via git.drupalcode.org.

⚠️ Side Effect Warning

**This skill has external side effects:**

• Clones the project repository to `~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}/`
• Pushes branches to git.drupalcode.org issue forks (public)

**One manual interaction required** — Issue fork creation must be done via the drupal.org web UI (CAPTCHA-protected).

Usage

• "Create a merge request for paragraphs issue 3456789"
• "Set up an MR for issue #3456789 in the webform module"
• `/drupal-mr {project} {issue_number}` — Create MR
• `/drupal-mr list [{project}]` — List MRs

Prerequisites

**SSH key** added to git.drupalcode.org: 1. Go to: https://git.drupalcode.org/-/user_settings/ssh_keys 2. Add your public key (`~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub`) 3. Verify: `ssh -T git@git.drupal.org`

**HTTPS fallback** (if SSH port 22 is blocked):

• Create token at: https://git.drupalcode.org/-/user_settings/personal_access_tokens
• Scopes needed: `read_repository`, `write_repository`

Environment Detection

Tier 1 — Portable (Claude Desktop, Codex, any environment)

When Task() is unavailable:

1. **Check SSH connectivity** — Instruct user to verify: `ssh -T git@git.drupal.org` 2. **Clone repository** — Provide command:

   git clone git@git.drupal.org:project/{project}.git ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}
   cd ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}

3. **Open issue page** — URL: `https://www.drupal.org/project/{project}/issues/{issue_number}` 4. **⛔ STOP: User clicks "Create issue fork" in the right sidebar, then replies "done"** 5. **Set up remote and branch**:

   git remote add {project}-{issue_number} git@git.drupal.org:issue/{project}-{issue_number}.git
   git fetch {project}-{issue_number}
   git checkout -b {issue_number}-{description-slug}

6. **Guide code changes** — User makes their changes in the cloned repo 7. **Push and create MR**:

   git add .
   git commit -m "Issue #{issue_number}: {description}"
   git push {project}-{issue_number} {branch_name}
   # Git outputs MR creation URL — open in browser to complete

Tier 2 — Claude Code Enhanced

When running in Claude Code with Task() and git/ssh available:

Task(cms-cultivator:drupalorg-mr-specialist:drupalorg-mr-specialist,
     prompt="Execute the drupal-mr command with arguments: {arguments}. Check prerequisites (SSH key), clone project to ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/ if needed, guide user through manual issue fork creation, set up branch, push changes, and provide MR creation URL. Return MR URL and next steps.")

The agent handles git operations automatically, pausing for the one required manual step (issue fork creation).

Branch Naming Convention

{issue_number}-{description-slug}

Examples:
3456789-fix-validation-error
3456789-add-ckeditor5-support

Clone Location

All drupal.org projects clone to `~/.cache/drupal-contrib/`:

~/.cache/drupal-contrib/
├── paragraphs/
├── webform/
└── easy_lqp/

This location persists across sessions and avoids conflicts with your main projects.

Resuming Work on Existing MR

cd ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}
git fetch --all
git checkout {branch_name}
# Make changes
git add . && git commit -m "Issue #{issue}: additional fixes"
git push {project}-{issue_number} {branch_name}
# MR updates automatically

MR Success Output

**Merge Request Ready**

**Project**: paragraphs
**Issue**: #3456789
**Branch**: 3456789-fix-validation-error
**Local repo**: ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/paragraphs/

**Next Steps**:
1. Complete MR creation via the URL in git push output
2. Update drupal.org issue status to "Needs review"
3. Respond to review feedback
