Ship the current changes through commit, push, and PR creation. Confirm with the user before each step using the AskUserQuestion tool.

Step 1: Scan

• Run git status to see all changed, staged, and untracked files
• Run git diff to see what changed (staged + unstaged)
• Run git log --oneline -5 to see recent commit style
• Present a clear summary to the user:
  • Files modified
  • Files added
  • Files deleted
  • Untracked files
• If there are no changes, tell the user and stop

Step 2: Stage & Commit

• Propose which files to stage. Never stage these:
  • Secrets: .env*, *.pem, *.key, credentials.json
  • Lock files: package-lock.json, yarn.lock, pnpm-lock.yaml (unless intentionally updated)
  • Generated: *.gen.ts, *.generated.*, *.min.js, *.min.css
  • Build output: dist/, build/, .next/, __pycache__/
  • Dependencies: node_modules/, vendor/, .venv/
  • OS/editor: .DS_Store, Thumbs.db, *.swp, .idea/, .vscode/settings.json
• Draft a commit message based on the changes, matching the repo's existing commit style
• ASK the user to confirm or edit: show the exact files to stage and the proposed commit message
• Only after confirmation: stage the files and create the commit
• If the commit fails (e.g., pre-commit hook), fix the issue and try again with a NEW commit

Step 3: Push

• Check if the current branch has an upstream remote
• If not, propose creating one with git push -u origin <branch>
• ASK the user to confirm before pushing
• Only after confirmation: push to remote

Step 4: Pull Request

• Check if a PR already exists for this branch (gh pr view. If it exists, show the URL and stop)
• Analyze ALL commits on this branch vs the base branch (not just the latest commit)
• Draft a PR title (under 72 chars) and body with:
  • Summary: 2-4 bullet points
  • Test plan: how to verify
• ASK the user to confirm or edit the title and body
• Only after confirmation: create the PR with gh pr create
• Show the PR URL when done

Step 5: Branch cleanup (optional)

After the PR is created (or if invoked when everything is already shipped), offer to clean up stale local branches:

• git fetch --prune, then find branches whose upstream is gone: git for-each-ref --format '%(refname:short) %(upstream:track)' refs/heads | grep '\[gone\]'
• Show the list and ASK before deleting. Delete with git branch -d only.
• If a branch isn't fully merged (-d refuses), list it separately — deleting unmerged branches needs the user to explicitly say so, every time.

Rules

• NEVER skip a confirmation step. Each step requires explicit user approval
• NEVER force-push
• NEVER commit .env, secrets, or credential files
• If the user says "skip" at any step, skip that step and move to the next
• If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as the commit message / PR title
