What problem does it solve?
Customized NauggieClaw forks drift from upstream, making merges risky, token-heavy, and prone to losing localized changes; this Skill orchestrates preflight safety checks, backups, previews, and optional migrations so you can catch up without a reinstall.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Safety-first preflight: Enforces a clean working tree, adds or verifies the upstream remote, detects the active branch, and fetches commits before touching anything.
- Backup + preview: Creates timestamped backup branches and tags, shows upstream vs. local diffs, buckets changed files, and previews conflicts via a dry-run merge before committing.
- Flexible update paths: Supports merge, cherry-pick, and rebase workflows with conflict resolution best practices, followed by npm build/test validation and breaking-change detection that triggers migration skills when necessary.
- Use Case: Run this Skill whenever you want to merge a long-running upstream spree into your customized fork so you know exactly what will change, where conflicts may arise, and how to return to the previous state if needed.
Quick Start
Run /update-nanoclaw in Auggie to preview upstream diffs, create backups, and merge or cherry-pick safely.
