Merging with the target branch

Read codex-workflow.json → targetBranch (default main only when the file/property is missing). The dev UI's worktree drawer updates this file.
Sync FROM target: git merge <targetBranch> (or the selected target history point) into the current branch. Abort and stop on conflicts — surface them, don't resolve unilaterally.
Merge TO target (whole work branch): the destination is targetBranch, never an assumed main.
Never cherry-pick target commits from the dev UI rows — selecting a newer target commit merges all older target commits in history order.
The dev UI pending-commit action merges only the selected commit into targetBranch — one row ≠ the whole branch.
Before any PR: pnpm version:check + the run-tests ladder.
