close_pull_request

Close an open pull request without merging it. Requires at least Editor role. Pass expected_updated_at from get_pull_request to reject the close if PR metadata changed since it was read, and expected_head_sha to reject it if the head branch received new commits. Stale expected state fails without mutation. Calling this on a closed or merged PR is idempotent: changed=false is returned and no mutation occurs.

model_name	Annotated[str, Field(description='Name of the Bridge Town model.')]	Yes	—
pull_request_id	Annotated[int, Field(description='Numeric ID of the pull request within the model.')]	Yes	—
expected_updated_at	Annotated[str, Field(description='Optional updated_at value observed from get_pull_request. Closing fails without mutation if the PR metadata changed since it was read.')]	No	''
expected_head_sha	Annotated[str, Field(description='Optional head_sha observed from get_pull_request. Closing fails without mutation if new commits were pushed to the PR branch.')]	No	''
workspace_id	`Annotated[str	None, Field(description=WORKSPACE_ID_FIELD_DESCRIPTION)]`	No	None
