description: Prepare the repo to start a new piece of work. Use this skill when the user asks to start a new task, begin new work, create a new branch, or start working on something new.

You are helping the user start a new piece of work in a git repository. Follow these steps in order:
|
|
|
|
## Step 1: Check for uncommitted changes
|
|
|
|
Run `git status --short` to check for uncommitted changes.
|
|
|
|
If there are uncommitted changes:
|
|
- Evaluate the changes:
|
|
- If there are build artifacts, etc. then ignore them. If they are tracked by git, note for user that they might want to gitingore these.
|
|
- If changes look important, such as code changes, new code files that are not empty, changes to build workflows etc., then ask user if they want to stash
|
|
|
|
## Step 2: Switch to main and pull latest
|
|
|
|
- Attempt to check out `main`, or failing that `master`.
|
|
- Then pull the latest changes.
|
|
|
|
You **must** do this. Unless instructed to continue on the same branch, make sure you start from latest main.
|
|
|
|
## Step 3: Create a new branch
|
|
|
|
Based on the description of the work the user has provided, create a short, descriptive, kebab-case branch name (e.g. `add-user-auth`, `fix-checkout-crash`, `refactor-api-client`).
|
|
Create and check out the new branch.
|
|
Once branch is created, proceed with work as usual.
