Finishing a Development Branch
Overview
Guide completion of development work by presenting clear options and handling chosen workflow.
Core principle: Verify tests -> Present options -> Execute choice -> Clean up.
Announce at start: "I'm using the finishing-a-development-branch skill to complete this work."
The Process
Step 1: Verify Tests
Run project's test suite using scripts/run-tests for auto-detection. If tests fail: show failures, stop — cannot proceed until tests pass. If tests pass: continue.
Step 2: Determine Base Branch
