[JENKINS-64824] Cannot filter Pull Request jobs by title/description

I am using GitHub branch source plugin to build pull requests and it works perfectly. However, I want to customize the builds such that some of the pull request jobs are skipped.

For example: If Pull Request title or description contains a specific word like "Automated" then skip the build.

Is there a way this can be achieved ? I tried using Filter by name (with wildcard) but that does not seem to work. Build get started as soon a Pull Request is opened.
