FAQPage Schema
How do I merge a development branch after verifying tests pass?▼

To merge a development branch, the skill first checks if tests pass, then presents structured integration options including a local merge. It executes the chosen workflow and automatically cleans up the worktree.

Can I create a pull request directly from a local development worktree?▼

Yes, you can create a pull request directly from your development branch. The skill offers pull request creation as a structured integration option after verifying that your code changes pass all tests.

What is the best way to preserve unfinished work on a git branch without merging?▼

To preserve work on a git branch without merging, the skill provides a branch preservation option. This keeps your branch intact and manages the worktree cleanup so your codebase remains stable for later development.

Does this branch management workflow require any external dependencies?▼

No external dependencies are required for this branch management workflow. The skill operates independently using its internal scripts and references to guide code integration, pull request creation, and worktree cleanup.

Why should I verify tests before proceeding with code integration?▼

Verifying tests before code integration ensures your development work is stable. The skill automatically checks test results to prevent merging broken code, satisfying requirements for a smooth transition from development to deployment.
