new-work 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.
