## Step 6.5: Early Greptile PR (after the free tests pass) When the repo uses Greptile, push and open the PR now so Greptile reviews while Steps 7–9 run; Step 10 collects its comments. Without Greptile nothing changes. ```bash ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-greptile-early detect ``` - **`GREPTILE_EARLY: off`** — print the reason (and any turn-back-on line) and continue to Step 7. - **`GREPTILE_EARLY: ask`** (a public repo, or unknown visibility, the first time) — AskUserQuestion: > This repo is public. Early Greptile review pushes this branch and opens a draft PR > before /ship's own review, so the code is visible before that review finishes. If > /ship stops later, the draft stays up with a comment saying why. A) Push early for this repo (remembered) · B) Keep today's order for this repo (remembered). Run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-greptile-early consent yes` (A) or `consent no` (B). B continues to Step 7. - **`GREPTILE_EARLY: on`**, or after A — show the user the printed `Greptile: found …` line, then follow 1-3 below. **1.** Push: `git push -u origin `. If it fails, record "Greptile early review: not run (push failed)" and continue to Step 7; Step 17 pushes later. **2.** Write a provisional `:

` title (Step 18 replaces it) into a private file: ```bash _GT="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)/.gstack/tmp" mkdir -p "$_GT" && chmod 700 "$_GT" || { echo "Not sent: cannot create $_GT for the text file." >&2; exit 1; } _EX=$(git rev-parse --git-path info/exclude 2>/dev/null) && mkdir -p "$(dirname "$_EX")" && { grep -qxF '/.gstack/tmp/' "$_EX" 2>/dev/null || echo '/.gstack/tmp/' >> "$_EX"; } TITLE_FILE=$(mktemp "${_GT:?}/early-title.XXXXXX") || { echo "Not sent: mktemp failed in $_GT." >&2; exit 1; }; echo "TITLE_FILE: $TITLE_FILE (name: ${TITLE_FILE##*/})" ``` Write the text into each printed file with your file-write tool (Claude Code's Write tool needs a Read of the empty file first), exactly as it should appear. The text never goes into a shell command, heredoc or quoted argument. If a write fails or is refused, do not send: print the cause, the file path and the command below for sending by hand. **3.** Open the draft, substituting the printed name. Add `--ready` only when the user asked for a non-draft PR: ```bash TITLE_FILE="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)/.gstack/tmp/" ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-greptile-early open --base --title-file "$TITLE_FILE" ``` It opens the PR through `gstack-post` with a body saying /ship opened it early, and posts one `@greptileai` comment when Greptile skips drafts. Save the printed `EARLY_PR` and `EARLY_PR_OPENED_AT` in the invocation record. `EARLY_PR: none` means a PR was already open: Step 10 triages it as before. Exit 1 or 2 means `gstack-post` flagged the provisional title: write a plainer one and rerun. Exit 3: record the error and continue without early review. **If /ship stops after the early PR opened and before Step 19 publishes**, leave the draft open (never close or force-push it) and post one comment saying /ship stopped and why: write the reason into a private file with your file-write tool, then run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-post pr-comment --body-file `. ---
