push

Push current branch to remote.

When to invoke

User says: "/push", "push my branch", "push this up", "get my branch onto GitHub", or needs the current branch pushed to origin before opening a PR. Not this: ready to open the PR itself → /pr (run after push).

Execution boundary

This is a deterministic Git transport operation. Run it inline; do not spend a Loom/model-routing call or delegate it to another agent.

Before anything else

Resolve the base with bash bin/base-branch.sh (add the managed repo name when applicable); it prints {base} or fails, in which case stop. Check git branch --show-current. If on a protected branch ({base}, develop, main, or master): → Use the resolved base branch (default "develop") → Create a working branch: git fetch origin "{base}" --quiet, then git checkout --no-track -b dev/{author}/{topic-slug} "origin/{base}" → Tell the user: "Creating a working branch for this..." — never mention git commands to the user. → Then proceed with the push.

What to do

1. Push current branch to origin
2. Set upstream if first push

Example

> /push

Pushing feature/2026-01-20-mcp-authentication...

  git push -u origin feature/2026-01-20-mcp-authentication
  ✓ Pushed

Branch is now on GitHub.
Run /pr when ready for review.
