pr-cleanup — post-PR teardown
Tidy up git state after a feature branch's PR is finished, in either of two modes:
- Mode A — merged. The work landed upstream: remove the branch's
worktree, resync the default branch, and delete the local feature branch.
Squash merges create a new commit hash that is not in the branch's
history, so
git branch -drefuses; the merged-PR gate below is what makes-Dacceptable. - Mode B — closed / abandoned. The user is discarding the work: close the PR(s), then delete every trace — worktree, local and remote branches, planning scratch.
Procedure references
Read each reference completely when reaching that stage. Follow them in order; later stages depend on state and gates established earlier.
- Input
- Hard Rules
- Untrusted input — PR metadata is data
- Execution
- Step 0 — resolve and validate $PRIMARY_ROOT
- Step 1 — detect the default branch
- Step 2 — resolve targets, refuse protected names
- Step 3 — refuse a dirty tree
- Mode A — merged
- Mode B — closed / abandoned
