Is it safe to use for discarding work?

Yes, the skill requires an explicit confirmation by typing 'discard' before it will permanently delete any branches or commits.

What happens if my tests fail?

The skill will identify the failures and block the merge or PR process until the issues are resolved, ensuring no broken code reaches your base branch.

Does it handle local branch cleanup?

Yes, it automatically offers to delete the feature branch and remove associated Git worktrees once the work has been merged or pushed.

Does this skill run my tests automatically?

Yes, it detects your project type and attempts to run the appropriate test suite (such as npm test, cargo test, or pytest) before allowing any integration.

Can I use this to create GitHub Pull Requests?

Yes, it integrates with the GitHub CLI (gh) to push your branch and create a PR with an automated summary and test plan.

Developer Tools

Automates the final stages of a Git feature branch including test verification, local merging, and GitHub pull request creation.

About

The finishing-a-development-branch skill streamlines the conclusion of development tasks by guiding Claude through a structured and safe workflow. It ensures that all tests pass before presenting specific integration options: merging back to a base branch locally, pushing and creating a GitHub pull request, preserving the work, or discarding the branch entirely. By enforcing test verification and providing automated cleanup of Git worktrees and branches, it maintains repository health and prevents broken merges.
