What problem does it solve?

Branch naming inconsistencies slow collaboration and increase review friction; this skill provides a standardized approach and practical guidelines for naming git branches.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces a <type>/<description> format with common prefixes: feature/, bugfix/, hotfix/, release/, refactor/, docs/, test/, chore/.
  • Provides practical examples, rules (lowercase, hyphens, avoid vague names, include ticket IDs when available), and quick references for teams.
  • Supports workflow guidance across various Git workflows and integrates with hooks or CI to encourage consistent naming.

Quick Start

Tell me a branch name you want to use, and I will validate it against the approved prefixes and format.
