branch-rebaseline-preflight

What problem does it solve?

Prepare a preflight audit of a repository's branches to identify non-lane work, clean safe local leftovers, and report merged remote cleanup candidates, enabling a safe transition to the next implementation cycle without hiding unmerged work.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Audit local branches to identify non-lane work and blockers before cleanup.
• Report merged remote cleanup candidates for user review and removal.
• Safely delete local branches that are outside the promotion lane, have no upstream remote, and are present in origin/dev by ancestry or patch-equivalence.
• Rebaseline to origin/dev only after validating safety and workspace readiness.
• Enforce promotion-lane boundaries and avoid gitlink modifications during rebaseline.

Quick Start

Run a preflight audit to identify non-lane branches, collect safe local cleanups, and report remote cleanup candidates before deciding to rebaseline to origin/dev.
