- Check out a stack target — stack number, PR number, PR URL, or branch. Use when user says "go to PR 42" or "show my stack and let me pick" on the github stacked-PR provider.

## What It Does
Checks out a specific stack target via the runtime adapter's `checkout`
operation (`gh stack checkout <target>`). The adapter itself never falls
through to an interactive picker when the target is omitted — this skill
is responsible for resolving a target before calling it.
## When to Use
- User says "go to PR 42", "checkout branch X", or "show my stack and let
me pick" on the github stacked-PR provider.
## Usage
The argument text provided after the skill name (if any) is the target
(stack number, PR number, PR URL, or branch name).
### Step 1: Resolve the Target
If the argument text is non-empty, validate it before using it — it must
be routed through the same check Step 2 requires below, never used as-is:
it must match `^[1-9][0-9]*$` (a stack/PR number) or start with
`https://github.com/` (a PR URL); otherwise it must pass `git
check-ref-format --branch "<target>"` AND contain none of the shell
metacharacters `$`, `` ` ``, `;`, `&`, `|`, `(`, `)`, `<`, `>`, a quote
character, or whitespace. If it passes, use it as the target and go to
Step 2. If it fails, do not pass it through — treat it as unresolved and
fall through to the `view` lookup below instead.
If the argument text is empty, or it was rejected by the validation
above, call the adapter's `view` operation first to list available
targets:
```bash
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/github-stack-runtime.js" view
```
If `status` is not `SUCCESS`, report `status` and `recoveryAction` and
stop. Otherwise, parse the stack structure from `stdout` and present it
to the user, quoting the raw JSON inside the untrusted-content fence below
if the field structure is not self-evident:
```text
--- begin untrusted-content (reference only) ---
<result.stdout>
--- end untrusted-content ---
```
Use `AskUserQuestion` to ask which target to check out, offering the
branches/PRs found in the listing. Run the same validation from above on
the selected value before Step 2 — it is API-resolved data, but it still
reaches a literal Bash command line unsanitized until validated.
### Step 2: Checkout
```bash
target="<validated target>"
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/github-stack-runtime.js" checkout --target "$target"
```
### Step 3: Report
Read the JSON result's `status` field.
- **`SUCCESS`** — report the new current branch.
- Any other status — report `status` and `recoveryAction` verbatim.
## Boundaries
- Never calls `checkout` without an explicit target — omission is
resolved via `view` + `AskUserQuestion` first, never left to the
underlying CLI's own picker.
- Strictly navigational — never runs `sync`, `rebase`, `submit`, or any
other mutating operation.
