Create or Update a Pull Request

Publish the requested NemoClaw change and follow required CI and scheduled automated reviews until one unchanged latest PR commit has a complete disposition. A successful push alone is not completion. Preserve the user's scope and any explicit instruction to stop at a draft or withhold approval.

Select the stage

• Initial publication: read Validation, then Publication. Use the implementation evidence already collected.
• Update an open PR: first complete the PR follow-up contract. Repair valid in-scope findings through nemoclaw-contributor-implement-issue, then apply the validation and publication references. These are stages of the same authorized task.
• Inspect CI or review feedback: use the shared follow-up contract. Load publication procedures only if an authorized branch or PR write is needed.
• Mark a draft ready: use the ready-state requirements in Publication after the latest commit completes follow-up.

Publication requirements

Use the canonical NVIDIA/NemoClaw base, template, sensitive-path policy, and trusted validation surface described in the references. Publish from a clean feature branch. Every published commit must be GitHub Verified; the PR body must contain the configured identity's DCO declaration.

Bind branch writes to the declared repository, branch, local commit, and expected remote state. Preserve the atomic prior-state guard, fast-forward ancestry check, and readback requirements. Reconcile inconclusive writes before any permitted bounded retry. Never infer success from a write response alone or weaken the reference's concurrency and recovery rules.

Open code-changing or sensitive-path PRs as drafts. Record available review context without claiming unobserved approval. Do not select labels or request maintainer reviews in this workflow. When the diff adds, expands, or repairs live E2E evidence, require the implementation handoff to apply Define the Live Contract. When it prunes or relocates live assertions, require the handoff to apply Move or Remove Evidence. Route a handoff that omits any required field back to implementation before publication. Follow GitHub access for access errors and Writing and review for PR text.

Completion

Carry the original objective, accepted scope, deferred scope, tested commit, and validation evidence through repairs and publication. Continue authorized work without asking the user to restate the PR request. Ask only for a decision outside that scope or a required authorization that is still missing.

Report the PR URL, current commit, CI and automated-review results, and any remaining human decision or external blocker. Distinguish pending evidence from completed evaluation. This skill does not grant merge authority.
