- Push and create a Pull Request
- Keep the branch as-is
- Discard this work (requires typed confirmation)
Process
- Verify all tests pass (STOP if they fail)
- Determine base branch
- Present exactly 4 options
- Execute chosen option
- Clean up worktree (Options 1 and 4 only)
Agents Used
- Process agents referenced in workflow processes
