Push Workflow: Issue → Branch → PR → Continue

Argument $ARGUMENTS is either:

• An existing issue number (e.g. 42) — update it and wire up the branch/PR
• A short description (e.g. add retry logic for HTTP calls) — create a new issue first

Step 1: Resolve or create the GitHub issue

If $ARGUMENTS is a number — view the existing issue:

gh issue view $ARGUMENTS

If $ARGUMENTS is a description — create a new issue:

gh issue create \
  --title "$ARGUMENTS" \
  --body "## Context
<fill in context from current conversation / recent commits>

## Acceptance criteria
- [ ] <criterion 1>
- [ ] <criterion 2>"

Capture the new issue number from the output (e.g. #59).

Step 1.5: Shortcut — skill-only changes go directly to main

If the only changed files are under .claude/skills/ (skill updates, no source code changes):

git diff --stat

If all changed files are .claude/skills/** files:

1. Skip Steps 2–6 (no branch, no PR)
2. Commit directly on main:
   bashCopy

   git add .claude/skills/<changed-file>
   git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
   <imperative summary under 72 chars>
   
   Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
   EOF
   )"
   git push
   

3. Report the commit SHA and stop. No CI wait needed for skill-only commits.

Otherwise continue with the full workflow below.

Step 2: Ensure we're on main and up to date

git checkout main && git pull

Step 3: Create a feature branch named after the issue

git checkout -b feature/<issue-number>-<short-slug>

Where <short-slug> is 2–4 words from the issue title, kebab-cased (e.g. feature/59-retry-http-calls).

If a matching branch already exists, check it out instead:

git checkout feature/<issue-number>-<short-slug>

Step 4: Stage and commit any local changes (if present)

Check for uncommitted work first:

git status
git diff --stat

If there are changes to commit:

git add <changed-files>
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
<imperative summary under 72 chars>

Closes #<issue-number>

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
EOF
)"

If there are no changes yet, skip this step — implementation comes after the PR is open.

Step 5: Push the branch

git push -u origin HEAD

Step 6: Create the pull request (draft if no code yet)

gh pr create \
  --title "<concise title matching issue>" \
  --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- <bullet 1>
- <bullet 2>

## Test plan
- [ ] Run `./mvnw test -pl <module>`
- [ ] Verify <key behavior>

Closes #<issue-number>

🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)
EOF
)" \
  --draft

Remove --draft if there are already commits with real code on the branch.

Report the PR URL to the user.

Step 7: Continue implementing

Now implement the work described in the issue:

• Read the issue body for full requirements
• Follow project coding standards (Java 21, Lombok, tabs, spring-javaformat)
• Run ./mvnw test -pl <module> after each meaningful change
• When done, mark the PR ready for review:
  bashCopy

  gh pr ready
