Subject: [PATCH] feat: add AI-powered duplicate PR detection via opencode
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Same approach as the duplicate issue detector — uses opencode run
with gh pr commands to find potentially duplicate open PRs when
external contributors open new PRs. Skips core team and bots.

+
+          If you find potential duplicates, post a SINGLE comment on PR #${{ github.event.pull_request.number }} using gh pr comment with this format:
+
+          _This comment was generated by an LLM and may be inaccurate._
+
+          This PR might be a duplicate of existing PRs. Please check:
+          - #[pr_number]: [brief description of similarity]
+
+          If you find NO duplicates, do NOT post any comment. Stay silent."
