ce-clean-gone-branches

To delete local git branches whose remote tracking branches are gone, this Skill fetches and prunes remotes, parses git branch -vv output for the gone state, and safely deletes identified branches after user confirmation.

To prune stale local branches and their worktrees safely, the workflow detects branches whose remote counterparts no longer exist and presents them for user confirmation before deleting both the branches and linked worktrees.

If there are no stale branches to clean up in your repository, the clean-gone script reports the __NONE__ state and exits gracefully without making any changes to your local branches or worktrees.

The git branch -vv command identifies branches with gone remotes by outputting tracking information that the script parses for the ': gone]' marker, indicating the remote tracking branch has been deleted.

Yes, you need to manually confirm before the script removes local branches, as the workflow presents identified stale branches for user approval before deleting them and any associated worktrees.
