If on main/master/default, create a branch: `git checkout -b "codex/{description}"`
Otherwise stay on the current branch.
Confirm status, then stage everything: `git status -sb` then `git add -A`.
Commit tersely with the description: `git commit -m "{description}"`
Run checks if not already. If checks fail due to missing deps/tools, install dependencies and rerun once.
Push with tracking: `git push -u origin $(git branch --show-current)`
If git push fails due to workflow auth errors, pull from master and retry the push.
Open a PR and edit title/body to reflect the description and the deltas: `GH_PROMPT_DISABLED=1 GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0 gh pr create --draft --fill --head $(git branch --show-current)`
Write the PR description to a temp file with real newlines (e.g. pr-body.md ... EOF) and run pr-body.md to avoid \\n-escaped markdown.
PR description (markdown) must be detailed prose covering the issue, the cause and effect on users, the root cause, the fix, and any tests or checks used to validate.
