Maybe on your team, but I don't think AI PRs are universally disliked. The people that submit PRs without understanding them are universally disliked.

Have you tried writing in AGENTS.md or whatever to exactly explain what you like/dislike about the PR descriptions?

The PR descriptions are pretty universally disliked. We have centralized tooling that manages the prompts for that, I’m sure they’ve tried tuning it but maybe there’s more they could do.

Though I have some local workflows where I try to teach Claude about my writing style preferences via skills and examples, and it’s still not great.

The basics are always so basic yet so necessary. Thanks for the recommendation.
