What happens if my tests fail?

The skill prioritizes code quality and will halt the completion process, displaying the failures and requiring you to fix the tests before allowing a merge or PR.

How does it keep project documentation updated?

It attempts to invoke a project librarian subagent to analyze branch changes and update CLAUDE.md files, ensuring your project context stays in sync with code changes.

Can I use this with GitHub?

Yes, it supports creating Pull Requests directly via the GitHub CLI (gh) as one of its core integration options, including automated summary generation.

Does this skill automatically delete my code?

No, the skill provides multiple options to merge or create a PR first. If you choose to discard work, it requires an explicit typed confirmation ('discard') to prevent accidental data loss.

Developer Tools

Automates the final steps of a git development branch by verifying tests, managing merges or pull requests, and cleaning up worktrees.

This skill provides a structured framework for finalizing development work within Claude Code. It ensures code quality by enforcing mandatory test verification before offering a clear set of options: local merging, pull request creation, preservation, or safe discarding. By automating repetitive Git tasks, updating project documentation via a context librarian, and managing worktree cleanup, it minimizes human error and maintains a clean repository state during the transition from implementation to integration.
