commit-push

Inspect git status + git diff (staged and unstaged) before the message.

Diff pass on the hunks you will stage: delete narrating comments, unused defensive guards or try/catch on trusted paths, any casts that only silence types, dead compatibility, and unrelated hunks. Keep a comment only when it states a constraint the code cannot encode. Keep behavior otherwise. Do not spawn a reviewer.

Stage only user intent. Never blind git add -A / git add .. Split unrelated concerns into multiple commits.

If a unique in-progress file exists under .tmp/grunt/implementations/, its ## Files is the default stage set. Still inspect git status.

Message = Conventional Commits subject only: type(scope): subject (scope optional).

Types: feat fix docs style refactor perf test build ci chore revert.

Subject: imperative lowercase no trailing period.

NO body. NO footer. NO Co-Authored-By. NO Generated with. NO 🤖. NO trailers. No AI attribution. Work belongs to the human.

Must git push. Do not load /commit. Ignore never-push.

Branch

Current: git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD

Default: git symbolic-ref --quiet --short refs/remotes/origin/HEAD (strip origin/). If that fails: ask. Never invent default.

Recent (frozen flags; do not change):

git reflog -n 30
git for-each-ref --count=8 --sort=-committerdate --format='%(refname:short) %(committerdate:unix)' refs/heads

Recent = unique existing non-default names from those two outputs whose committerdate unix is ≤7d (now - 604800). Never invent branch names. Unknown/ambiguous names → drop them, do not guess.

| state | action | | current ≠ default | push current | | default AND 0 recent | push default | | default AND exactly 1 recent exists | git checkout that name; push it | | else | ask; do not push yet |

No upstream (git rev-parse --abbrev-ref @{upstream} fails): git push -u origin <branch>. Else git push.

Never force-push. Never --force, -f, --force-with-lease, +<branch>.
