Will it delete my work by accident?

No. The skill includes a 'Discard' option that requires an explicit, typed confirmation before any branches or worktrees are permanently deleted.

What happens if my tests fail during the finishing process?

The skill will halt the process immediately and display the failures, preventing you from merging or pushing broken code until the issues are resolved.

Does this skill work with any testing framework?

Yes, it is designed to recognize and run common test suites including npm, pytest, cargo, and go test before proceeding with any branch operations.

Can I use this skill to create GitHub Pull Requests?

Absolutely. If you select the PR option, the skill uses the GitHub CLI to push your branch and generate a structured PR with a summary and test plan.

Developer Tools

Streamlines the conclusion of coding tasks by automating test verification, branch integration, and repository cleanup.

This skill provides a structured workflow for finalizing development work, ensuring that no code is merged or pushed without passing tests. It guides the user through identifying the correct base branch and presents four clear options for completion: local merging, creating a GitHub Pull Request, preserving the branch for later, or safely discarding the work. By automating the boilerplate of Git management—such as worktree cleanup and PR template generation—it helps maintain a clean development environment and high code quality standards.
