drupal-contribute

Drupal Contribute

Full drupal.org contribution workflow — create an issue and set up a merge request in one workflow.

⚠️ Side Effect Warning

This skill has external side effects:

• Creates a new issue on drupal.org (publicly visible)
• Clones the project repository to ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}/
• Pushes to an issue fork on git.drupalcode.org

Two manual interaction points are required (CAPTCHA protection prevents automation):

1. You paste and submit the issue on drupal.org
2. You click "Create issue fork" on the issue page

Usage

• "Contribute to the paragraphs module — create an issue and MR"
• "Start a new drupal.org contribution for the webform module"
• /drupal-contribute {project} [issue-number]

If issue already exists: /drupal-contribute paragraphs 3456789 (skips to MR setup)

Prerequisites

• drupal.org account (logged in via browser)
• SSH key added to git.drupalcode.org (for MR setup)
• Or HTTPS token from git.drupalcode.org (if SSH blocked)

Environment Detection

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

When Task() is unavailable:

1. Gather issue details — Ask user for: issue type, title, description, Drupal/module version, priority
2. Generate issue content — Format using official drupal.org HTML template:

   <h3 id="summary-problem-motivation">Problem/Motivation</h3>
   {description}
   <h3 id="summary-proposed-resolution">Proposed resolution</h3>
   {resolution}
   <h3 id="summary-remaining-tasks">Remaining tasks</h3>
   - [ ] Confirm the bug
   - [ ] Write fix
   - [ ] Add tests
   

3. Display for manual submission — Show complete formatted content for copy/paste
4. Provide issue URL — https://www.drupal.org/node/add/project-issue/{project}
5. ⛔ STOP: User pastes content and submits issue, then replies with issue number
6. Guide MR setup — Provide git commands:

   git clone git@git.drupal.org:project/{project}.git ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}
   cd ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}
   # User creates issue fork at: https://www.drupal.org/project/{project}/issues/{issue_number}
   git remote add {project}-{issue} git@git.drupal.org:issue/{project}-{issue_number}.git
   git fetch {project}-{issue_number}
   git checkout -b {issue_number}-{description-slug}
   

7. ⛔ STOP: User creates issue fork, replies "done"
8. Provide push command:

   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 available:

Phase 1 — Issue Creation:

Task(cms-cultivator:drupalorg-issue-specialist:drupalorg-issue-specialist,
     prompt="Create a new issue for {project}. Generate issue content using drupal.org HTML templates, copy title to clipboard, open browser, guide user through submission, and return the issue number.")

Phase 2 — MR Setup (after user provides issue number):

Task(cms-cultivator:drupalorg-mr-specialist:drupalorg-mr-specialist,
     prompt="Create a merge request for {project} issue #{issue_number}. Clone repo, guide user through manual fork creation, set up branch, push changes, and provide MR creation URL.")

Contribution Workflow

New Contribution (Issue + MR)

1. Agent generates issue content and opens browser
2. You paste and submit — reply with issue number
3. Agent opens issue page for fork creation
4. You click "Create issue fork" — reply "done"
5. Agent sets up branch and remote
6. Make your code changes in ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}/
7. Commit and push (git outputs MR URL automatically)
8. Open MR URL in browser to complete creation

Existing Issue (MR Only)

Use /drupal-contribute {project} {issue_number} to skip issue creation.
