git-push — NanoRTC Pre-flight Push Workflow
Run local CI, fix formatting, review commits, check doc freshness, then push. The goal is to catch everything GitHub Actions would catch, before the code leaves your machine.
Step 1: Pre-flight Status
Gather context. Run ALL of these in parallel:
git status
git branch --show-current
git remote -v
git log --oneline -5
git rev-parse --abbrev-ref @{upstream} 2>/dev/null || echo "NO_UPSTREAM"
Handle edge cases before proceeding:
- Detached HEAD: Stop. Tell the user to create or checkout a branch first.
- No remote configured: Stop. Tell the user to add a remote.
- On main/master with uncommitted changes: Warn and ask for confirmation before continuing.
- Clean working tree AND up-to-date with remote: Tell the user nothing to push. Stop.
Step 2: CI Validation
This is the ONE command that validates everything. Do not replicate its individual checks.
./scripts/ci-check.sh
This script covers: architecture constraints (no platform headers, no malloc in src/), clang-format, all 3 profile builds (DATA/AUDIO/MEDIA), ctest for each profile, symbol prefix validation, no global mutable state, and AddressSanitizer build+test.
If it fails:
Check if the failure is clang-format. Look for
FAILnext toclang-format checkin the output while other checks passed. If so, auto-fix:clang-format -i src/*.c src/*.h include/*.h crypto/*.h crypto/*.cThen re-run
./scripts/ci-check.sh. If it passes now, the formatting fixes become part of the uncommitted changes handled in Step 3.If the failure is NOT clang-format (build error, test failure, architecture constraint violation, symbol naming, ASan failure): stop the entire flow. Show the failure output clearly to the user. Do NOT attempt automatic fixes for anything other than formatting.
Step 3: Handle Uncommitted Changes
Only reached after Step 2 CI validation passes. If git status shows uncommitted changes
(including any clang-format auto-fixes from Step 2):
Show changes:
git status git diff HEADStage relevant files by name. Never stage files matching:
.env*,credentials*,*.key,*.pem,*.p12. Warn the user if such files appear in the working tree.Generate a commit message with conventional commit prefix (
feat:,fix:,docs:,refactor:,test:,chore:,style:) based on the actual changes. If the only change is formatting, usestyle: auto-fix clang-format.Commit using HEREDOC format:
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF' <type>: <description> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> EOF )"
If no uncommitted changes, skip this step.
Step 4: Patch-on-Patch Review (Advisory)
Detect layered incremental fixes in today's commits that could be squashed into cleaner history.
# Today's commits on this branch
git log --since="00:00" --format='%h %s' --no-merges
# Source files modified in multiple commits today
git log --since="00:00" --format='%h' --no-merges | \
xargs -I{} git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r {} | \
grep -E '\.(c|h)$' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
If fewer than 2 commits today: Skip entirely. Proceed to Step 5.
Look for these signals:
- Any
.cor.hfile modified in 3+ commits today (strong signal) - Fix chains: "implement X" then "fix X" or "fix typo in X"
- Messages containing "forgot to", "actually", "another attempt"
If detected, warn the user:
Patch-on-patch detected:
nano_stun.cmodified across multiple commits today. Consider squashing withgit rebase -ibefore pushing.
This is advisory only — if the user says proceed, continue to Step 5.
Step 5: Documentation Freshness Check (Advisory)
Compare changed files against upstream to detect potentially stale documentation.
UPSTREAM=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref @{upstream} 2>/dev/null || echo "origin/main")
git diff --name-only "$UPSTREAM"...HEAD 2>/dev/null || git diff --name-only HEAD~5..HEAD
Apply these mapping rules:
| Changed files | Check this doc | Reason |
|---|---|---|
src/nano_*.c or src/nano_*.h |
docs/QUALITY_SCORE.md |
Module grade may need updating |
include/nanortc.h |
ARCHITECTURE.md |
Public API change affects architecture |
New file in src/ |
docs/engineering/development-workflow.md |
Module order may need updating |
CMakeLists.txt |
AGENTS.md |
Build instructions may have changed |
New tests/test_*.c |
docs/QUALITY_SCORE.md |
Test coverage column may need updating |
crypto/nanortc_crypto*.c |
docs/references/rfc-index.md |
Crypto RFC refs may need adding |
Any src/ or crypto/ file |
docs/exec-plans/active/*.md |
Active plan progress may need updating |
If staleness detected, list the potential gaps and let the user decide:
Docs may need updating:
docs/QUALITY_SCORE.md— nano_stun implemented, grade may need bumping from DARCHITECTURE.md— nanortc.h public API changed
Do not block. The user decides whether to update docs before or after pushing.
Step 6: Push
Check upstream tracking and push:
# Check if upstream exists
git rev-parse --abbrev-ref @{upstream} 2>/dev/null
- No upstream:
git push -u origin $(git branch --show-current) - Has upstream:
git push
Step 7: Post-push Summary
Display a summary in English:
Push complete
Branch: feat/stun-parser
Commits: 3
Remote: origin (git@github.com:user/nanortc.git)
CI validation: PASSED
Doc reminders: 1 (QUALITY_SCORE.md)
If branch is not main, suggest creating a PR.
Rules
- Never force push unless the user explicitly requests it. Warn if targeting
main/master. - Never skip CI. Always run
./scripts/ci-check.shbefore pushing. No shortcuts. - Never commit secrets. Abort and warn if any staged file looks like a key, token, or credential.
- Do not replicate ci-check.sh. The script handles architecture constraints, formatting, 3 profile builds, tests, symbol checks, and ASan. Just run it. If the script is updated, the skill automatically benefits.
- Only auto-fix formatting. Build failures, test failures, and constraint violations need human judgment. clang-format is the only auto-fixable issue.
- Patch-on-patch and doc freshness are advisory. Warn but never block the push.
- HEREDOC for commit messages. Always use the heredoc format.
- Co-Authored-By trailer on all auto-generated commits.
- Prefer new commits over amending. Format fixes get their own commit.
