description	Efficiently bring upstream map-poi-agent updates into a customized install, with preview, selective cherry-pick, and low token usage.

About

Your map-poi-agent fork drifts from upstream as you customize it. This skill pulls upstream changes into your install without losing your modifications.

Run /update-map-poi-agent in Claude Code.

How it works

Preflight: checks for clean working tree (git status --porcelain). If upstream remote is missing, asks you for the URL (defaults to https://github.com/qwibitai/map-poi-agent.git) and adds it. Detects the upstream branch name (main or master).

Backup: creates a timestamped backup branch and tag (backup/pre-update-<hash>-<timestamp>, pre-update-<hash>-<timestamp>) before touching anything. Safe to run multiple times.

Preview: runs git log and git diff against the merge base to show upstream changes since your last sync. Groups changed files into categories:

• Skills (.claude/skills/): unlikely to conflict unless you edited an upstream skill
• Source (src/): may conflict if you modified the same files
• Build/config (package.json, tsconfig*.json, container/): review needed

Update paths (you pick one):

• merge (default): git merge upstream/<branch>. Resolves all conflicts in one pass.
• cherry-pick: git cherry-pick <hashes>. Pull in only the commits you want.
• rebase: git rebase upstream/<branch>. Linear history, but conflicts resolve per-commit.
• abort: just view the changelog, change nothing.

Conflict preview: before merging, runs a dry-run (git merge --no-commit --no-ff) to show which files would conflict. You can still abort at this point.

Conflict resolution: opens only conflicted files, resolves the conflict markers, keeps your local customizations intact.

Validation: runs npm run build and npm test.

Rollback

The backup tag is printed at the end of each run:

git reset --hard pre-update-<hash>-<timestamp>

Backup branch backup/pre-update-<hash>-<timestamp> also exists.

Token usage

Only opens files with actual conflicts. Uses git log, git diff, and git status for everything else. Does not scan or refactor unrelated code.

Goal

Help a user with a customized map-poi-agent install safely incorporate upstream changes without a fresh reinstall and without blowing tokens.

Operating principles

• Never proceed with a dirty working tree.
• Always create a rollback point (backup branch + tag) before touching anything.
• Prefer git-native operations (fetch, merge, cherry-pick). Do not manually rewrite files except conflict markers.
• Default to MERGE (one-pass conflict resolution). Offer REBASE as an explicit option.
• Keep token usage low: rely on git status, git log, git diff, and open only conflicted files.

Step 0: Preflight (stop early if unsafe)

Run:

• git status --porcelain If output is non-empty:
• Tell the user to commit or stash first, then stop.

Confirm remotes:

• git remote -v If upstream is missing:
• Ask the user for the upstream repo URL (default: https://github.com/qwibitai/map-poi-agent.git).
• Add it: git remote add upstream <user-provided-url>
• Then: git fetch upstream --prune

Determine the upstream branch name:

• git branch -r | grep upstream/
• If upstream/main exists, use main.
• If only upstream/master exists, use master.
• Otherwise, ask the user which branch to use.
• Store this as UPSTREAM_BRANCH for all subsequent commands. Every command below that references upstream/main should use upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH instead.

Fetch:

• git fetch upstream --prune

Step 1: Create a safety net

Capture current state:

• HASH=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)
• TIMESTAMP=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)

Create backup branch and tag (using timestamp to avoid collisions on retry):

• git branch backup/pre-update-$HASH-$TIMESTAMP
• git tag pre-update-$HASH-$TIMESTAMP

Save the tag name for later reference in the summary and rollback instructions.

Step 2: Preview what upstream changed (no edits yet)

Compute common base:

• BASE=$(git merge-base HEAD upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH)

Show upstream commits since BASE:

• git log --oneline $BASE..upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH

Show local commits since BASE (custom drift):

• git log --oneline $BASE..HEAD

Show file-level impact from upstream:

• git diff --name-only $BASE..upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH

Bucket the upstream changed files:

• Skills (.claude/skills/): unlikely to conflict unless the user edited an upstream skill
• Source (src/): may conflict if user modified the same files
• Build/config (package.json, package-lock.json, tsconfig*.json, container/, launchd/): review needed
• Other: docs, tests, misc

Present these buckets to the user and ask them to choose one path using AskUserQuestion:

• A) Full update: merge all upstream changes
• B) Selective update: cherry-pick specific upstream commits
• C) Abort: they only wanted the preview
• D) Rebase mode: advanced, linear history (warn: resolves conflicts per-commit)

If Abort: stop here.

Step 3: Conflict preview (before committing anything)

If Full update or Rebase:

• Dry-run merge to preview conflicts. Run these as a single chained command so the abort always executes:

  git merge --no-commit --no-ff upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH; git diff --name-only --diff-filter=U; git merge --abort
  

• If conflicts were listed: show them and ask user if they want to proceed.
• If no conflicts: tell user it is clean and proceed.

Step 4A: Full update (MERGE, default)

Run:

• git merge upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH --no-edit

If conflicts occur:

• Run git status and identify conflicted files.
• For each conflicted file:
  • Open the file.
  • Resolve only conflict markers.
  • Preserve intentional local customizations.
  • Incorporate upstream fixes/improvements.
  • Do not refactor surrounding code.
  • git add <file>
• When all resolved:
  • If merge did not auto-commit: git commit --no-edit

Step 4B: Selective update (CHERRY-PICK)

If user chose Selective:

• Recompute BASE if needed: BASE=$(git merge-base HEAD upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH)
• Show commit list again: git log --oneline $BASE..upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH
• Ask user which commit hashes they want.
• Apply: git cherry-pick <hash1> <hash2> ...

If conflicts during cherry-pick:

• Resolve only conflict markers, then:
  • git add <file>
  • git cherry-pick --continue If user wants to stop:
  • git cherry-pick --abort

Step 4C: Rebase (only if user explicitly chose option D)

Run:

• git rebase upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH

If conflicts:

• Resolve conflict markers only, then:
  • git add <file>
  • git rebase --continue If it gets messy (more than 3 rounds of conflicts):
  • git rebase --abort
  • Recommend merge instead.

Step 5: Validation

Run:

• npm run build
• npm test (do not fail the flow if tests are not configured)

If build fails:

• Show the error.
• Only fix issues clearly caused by the merge (missing imports, type mismatches from merged code).
• Do not refactor unrelated code.
• If unclear, ask the user before making changes.

Step 6: Summary + rollback instructions

Show:

• Backup tag: the tag name created in Step 1
• New HEAD: git rev-parse --short HEAD
• Upstream HEAD: git rev-parse --short upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH
• Conflicts resolved (list files, if any)
• Remaining local diff vs upstream: git diff --name-only upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH..HEAD

Tell the user:

• To rollback: git reset --hard <backup-tag-from-step-1>
• Backup branch also exists: backup/pre-update-<HASH>-<TIMESTAMP>
• Restart the service to apply changes:
  • If using launchd: launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.map-poi-agent.plist && launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.map-poi-agent.plist
  • If running manually: restart npm run dev
