  1. A template shown when opening a pull request, usually prompting authors for context, testing notes, screenshots, rollout details, or linked issues. In good engineering culture, PR templates improve clarity without becoming bureaucratic noise.

    In plain English: A template used to guide what information goes into a pull request.

    Example: "The project's PR template asked one genuinely useful question: how should this change be verified by someone who did not write it?"
