# Git Operations

Unlike other skills in this system, this one documents *write* commands — that's intentional. `git-agent` is the sole component permitted to write git history or touch a remote; this skill is its exclusive execution reference and does not apply to any other agent.

## `create-branch`

Params: `branch` (exact name), `base` (optional; default: repository default branch).

`git fetch`, then create `branch` off `base` and check it out.

Returns:

```

Branch: <branch> (created off <base>)

```

## `checkout`

Params: `target` (a branch name, a PR number, `#N`, or a PR URL).

Resolve and check out: PR number/URL → `gh pr checkout <target>`; a branch that exists locally or remotely → check it out (`git fetch` first if remote-only). If `target` matches nothing, report not-found — create nothing.

Returns:

```

Branch: <branch> (checked out)

PR: <none | #N (draft|ready) — <url>>

```

## `commit`

Params: `paths` (files/globs to stage), `message` (exact commit message).

`git add <paths>`, `git commit -m "<message>"`. Nothing staged or nothing changed is a no-op, not an error.

Returns:

```

Committed: <sha> "<subject>"

```

Nothing to commit

```

## `push`

Params: none — pushes the current branch (`-u origin <branch>` on first push).

Returns:

```

Pushed: <branch>

```

## `create-pr`

Params: `title`, `body`, `draft` (bool), `base` (optional; default: default branch), `head` (optional; default: current branch).

If a PR already exists for `head`, do not recreate it — return it unchanged. Otherwise `gh pr create` with the given title and body, adding `--draft` when `draft` is true.

Returns:

```

PR: #N (draft|ready) — <url> (created | already existed)

```

## `ready-pr`

Params: `pr` (optional; default: PR for current branch).

`gh pr ready <pr>` when it is a draft; no-op if already ready.

Returns:

```

PR: #N (ready) — <url>

```

## `comment-pr`

Params: `pr` (optional; default: PR for current branch), `body` (exact comment text).

`gh pr comment <pr> --body "<body>"`.

Returns:

```

Comment: <url>

```

## `create-issue`

Params: `title`, `body`, `labels` (optional).

`gh issue create` with the given fields.

Returns:

```

Issue: #N — <url>

```

## `comment-issue`

Params: `issue` (number or URL), `body` (exact comment text).

`gh issue comment <issue> --body "<body>"`.

Returns:

```

Comment: <url>

```

## `read-comments`

Params: `target` (PR or issue number/URL; default: PR for current branch), `since` (optional ISO timestamp — return only comments and reviews posted at or after it).

`gh pr view --json comments,reviews` or `gh issue view --json comments` (or `gh api`). Concatenate each body as plain text with author and timestamp. An empty result is valid.

Returns:

```

Comments found: N

<author> @ <timestamp>:

<body>

...

```

Comments found: 0

```

+ ## Composite operations

+ Each composite below is one operation whose internal sequence is fixed by this skill — the caller supplies parameters, never the sequence. "Nothing to commit" at the commit step is a no-op: continue with the remaining steps (a resumed run may need only push/create-pr). Stop at the first genuinely failing step and report which steps completed and which step failed.

+ ## `ship-draft`

+ Params: `paths` (files/globs to stage), `message` (exact commit message), `title`, `body`.

+ Sequence: `commit`(paths, message) → `push` → `create-pr`(draft: true, title, body).

+ Returns:

+ ```

+ Committed: <sha|no-op> / Pushed: <ref> / PR: #<n> (draft) — <url>

+ ```

+ ## `ship-ready`

+ Params: `paths` (files/globs to stage), `message` (exact commit message), `title`, `body`.

+ Sequence: `commit`(paths, message) → `push` → `create-pr`(draft: true, title, body) → `ready-pr`.

+ Returns:

+ ```

+ Committed: <sha|no-op> / Pushed: <ref> / PR: #<n> (draft) — <url> / Ready: true

+ ```

+ ## `flag-blocked`

+ Params: `paths` (files/globs to stage), `message` (exact commit message), `title`, `body`, `comment_body` (exact comment text).

+ Sequence: `commit`(paths, message) → `push` → `create-pr`(draft: true, title, body) → `comment-pr`(comment_body).

+ Returns:

+ ```

+ Committed: <sha|no-op> / Pushed: <ref> / PR: #<n> (draft) — <url> / Commented: <comment-url>

+ ```
