What branch prefixes are supported by this skill?

The skill supports custom prefixes, defaulting to 'drive' for standard development tasks and 'trip' for AI-oriented development workflows.

Why does it use timestamped branches?

Timestamping ensures that every topic branch has a unique name, preventing naming collisions and providing a clear chronological history of your work.

Does it detect if I am on the main branch?

Yes, the check tool returns a JSON object with an 'on_main' boolean to help you avoid making direct commits to your primary branch.

Is this skill compatible with any Git repository?

Yes, as long as the environment has Bash and Git installed, this skill can manage branches for any local repository.

Developer Tools

Manages Git branch states and automates the creation of timestamped topic branches for organized development workflows.

This skill streamlines Git workflows by providing automated tools to check the current branch status and instantly generate uniquely named topic branches. By enforcing specific naming conventions like 'drive-' for standard development and 'trip-' for AI-assisted tasks, it ensures a clean repository history and helps developers transition away from the main branch quickly. It is ideal for teams practicing trunk-based development or those using AI agents that require isolated environments for safe feature implementation and experimentation.
