Finishing a Development Branch Skill

When to Use

• Feature development is complete
• All verifications have passed
• Ready to merge into main branch

When NOT to Use

• Feature work is not complete — do not wrap up a branch mid-feature just to get a PR open
• Tests are still failing — fix them before starting the merge process
• The plan still has incomplete steps — finish executing the plan first
• There are uncommitted local changes that were not part of the intended feature scope
