Does this skill work with GitHub?

Yes, it integrates directly with the GitHub CLI (gh) to push branches and create Pull Requests with automated titles and summaries.

Is it possible to accidentally delete work?

No. The discard option requires an explicit, typed 'discard' confirmation before any branches or commits are permanently removed.

Which programming languages are supported for testing?

It automatically detects test runners for Node.js (NPM/Yarn), Rust (Cargo), Python (Pytest), Go, and projects using Makefiles.

Does it support Git worktrees?

Yes, it is designed to recognize and clean up Git worktrees automatically upon successful merging or discarding of a branch.

What happens if my tests fail during the workflow?

The skill includes a strict guardrail that blocks the process and reports a BLOCKED:TESTS status, preventing you from merging unstable code.

Developer Tools

Streamlines the finalization of feature branches through automated testing, integration, and repository cleanup.

About

This skill provides a rigorous, standardized workflow for ending a development cycle on a Git branch. It intelligently detects your project's test suite to ensure code quality before integration, identifies the correct base branch (main, master, or develop), and provides clear options for local merging, GitHub Pull Request creation, or branch preservation. With built-in guardrails that block merges on test failures and handle worktree cleanup, it ensures your repository remains clean and your deployment pipeline stays stable.

Key Features

Automatic test runner detection for JS, Rust, Python, Go, and Make
Intelligent base branch (merge target) identification
Safe worktree and local branch cleanup management
One-click GitHub Pull Request creation via 'gh' CLI integration
Conflict and test failure blocking to prevent broken merges
0 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Finalizing a feature branch after completing development tasks
Automating the PR creation process with standardized summaries
Safely discarding experimental branches and cleaning up worktrees
