What problem does it solve?
Invalid submodule pointers in a parent repository history can break builds and hinder collaboration. This skill surgically repairs those pointers using a deterministic, safety-conscious protocol to restore valid references without compromising upstream history.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Detect broken submodule pointers and identify the exact introduction commit.
- Determine the Synchronization Horizon boundary to align parent mandates with submodule history.
- Create a safety backup tag and perform a controlled pointer swap with guarded propagation.
- Use cases include broken-pointer repair, historical realignment after submodule rewrites, and mandate auditing.
Quick Start
Run the repair engine to locate the invalid submodule pointer and surgically update history with a backup before patching.
