Branch Strategy

Use when creating, naming, checking, reviewing, or documenting git work branches in any repository, with or without a tracking ticket.

Read

• Repo-local branch, PR, protected-branch, release-branch, and push rules first.
• references/current-guidance.md for the default shared branch naming and branch creation strategy.
• ../worktree-hygiene/SKILL.md before creating, switching, pushing, or publishing branches.
• ../commit-workflow/SKILL.md when the branch work continues into a commit.
