fix: add pull_request_template.md so GitHub auto-loads it on new PRs#100
Merged
Conversation
The templates in .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/ are only available via ?template= URL param and never auto-populate. GitHub auto-loads a default template from .github/pull_request_template.md (lowercase). Added that file with the same content as PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/default.md so all new PRs pre-populate with the summary/testing/success-criteria sections. The named templates in PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/ remain available for anyone who wants a specific template via URL. Closes #23 https://claude.ai/code/session_01VdFLjQPRxkWMY96TZBNHKp
