SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of cleaning up and organizing experimental branches from autoresearch sessions, helping developers produce clear, reviewable code changes efficiently.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Propose and group changesets based on commit history and modified files for logical separation.
  • Create independent branches for each group, isolating different experiment results and improvements.
  • Verify that combined branches match the original autoresearch branch, ensuring consistency.
  • Use case: When an engineer finishes an autoresearch session with multiple experiments, they can run this Skill to generate clean branches for review, merging, or deployment, saving manual effort and reducing errors.

Quick Start

Run the finalize script with a JSON file specifying experiment groups, which will automatically generate branches and validate their correctness.

FAQPage Schema
How do I organize experimental commits into independent branches?

Organize experimental commits by analyzing git history and diffing files to logically group changesets, creating independent branches for each group. This automated process ensures combined branches accurately represent original changes while preventing conflicts.

What is the best way to clean up experiment branches after a research session?

Clean up experiment branches by proposing and grouping changesets based on commit history and modified files. This creates clear, reviewable independent branches for each experiment result, saving manual effort and reducing errors during systematic cleanup.

How do I verify that combined git branches match the original experiment branch?

Verify combined branches match the original branch through built-in safety checks that analyze git history and diff files. This ensures consistency between generated independent branches and the original autoresearch branch state.

Can I automate branch management for multiple experiment tweaks in git?

Automate branch management for multiple experiment tweaks by running a finalize script with a JSON file specifying experiment groups. This automatically generates branches, validates correctness, and implements safety checks to prevent conflicts.

Does automated experiment cleanup work for teams managing multiple git branches?

Automated experiment cleanup works for teams managing multiple experiment tweaks by systematically organizing commits into independent branches. Safety checks prevent conflicts, ensuring final branches accurately represent combined changes for review, merging, or deployment.

How do I prevent conflicts when creating independent branches from experiment commits?

Prevent conflicts when creating independent branches through built-in safety checks that analyze git history and diff files. These checks ensure generated branches accurately represent combined changes without introducing conflicts.
