Which base branches are supported?

It automatically looks for common base branches like 'main' and 'master', and allows you to confirm the correct branch before proceeding.

Does this skill run my tests automatically?

Yes, it detects your project type and runs the relevant test suite (like npm test or pytest). It prevents merging or PR creation if tests fail.

What happens to my Git worktrees?

The skill automatically cleans up associated worktrees when merging or discarding, but preserves them if you choose to keep the branch for later.

Can I use this with GitHub specifically?

Yes, the skill integrates with the GitHub CLI (gh) to push your branch and create formatted Pull Requests automatically.

Will it delete my work without asking?

No. For branch deletion (discarding), it requires a specific typed confirmation to prevent accidental data loss.

Developer Tools

Automates the completion of feature development by verifying tests, managing branch merges, and streamlining pull request creation.

About

This skill provides a structured workflow for closing out development tasks, ensuring that no code is merged or submitted without passing local tests first. It intelligently detects base branches and presents four clear paths for integration: local merging with post-merge validation, automated Pull Request creation via GitHub CLI, branch preservation, or secure branch deletion. By handling the repetitive Git commands and worktree cleanup, it maintains repository hygiene and reduces the risk of human error during the critical handoff phase of development.

Key Features

Intelligent base branch detection and merge conflict prevention.
Automated test verification across multiple languages (npm, pytest, cargo, go).
One-command GitHub Pull Request creation with automated summaries.
Safe branch discarding with explicit confirmation requirements.
Automatic Git worktree cleanup for merged or deleted branches.
0 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Rapidly pushing code and opening a structured GitHub Pull Request with a single prompt.
Safely merging a completed feature branch into main after verifying all tests pass.
Cleaning up local environments by removing temporary development branches and worktrees.
