Finish Dev

Finish Development

Complete development work by verifying tests, presenting options, and cleaning up.

Process

1. Verify Tests Pass

Before anything else, verify all tests pass:

mix test  # or appropriate test command

If tests fail: Stop. Fix failures before proceeding.

If tests pass: Continue to step 2.

2. Determine Base Branch

git merge-base HEAD main 2>/dev/null || git merge-base HEAD master

3. Present Options

Present exactly these 4 options:

Implementation complete. What would you like to do?

1. Merge back to <base-branch> locally
2. Push and create a Pull Request
3. Keep the branch as-is (I'll handle it later)
4. Discard this work

Which option?

4. Execute Choice

Option 1: Merge Locally

git checkout <base-branch>
git pull
git merge <feature-branch>
# Verify tests on merged result
git branch -d <feature-branch>

Option 2: Push and Create PR

git push -u origin <feature-branch>
gh pr create --title "<title>" --body "## Summary
- <bullet points>

## Test Plan
- [ ] <verification steps>"

Option 3: Keep As-Is Report: "Keeping branch . You can return to it later."

Option 4: Discard Confirm first:

This will permanently delete:
- Branch <name>
- All commits: <list>

Type 'discard' to confirm.

Then if confirmed:

git checkout <base-branch>
git branch -D <feature-branch>

Quick Reference

Never:

• Proceed with failing tests
• Merge without verifying tests on result
• Delete work without confirmation
• Force-push without explicit request

Always:

• Verify tests before offering options
• Present exactly 4 options
• Get typed confirmation for discard
