# Git Triage

- ## Overview

- Full inventory of your git work state with rich context for decision-making. Shows worktrees, stashes, branches, and uncommitted work with enough detail to decide what to clean up, resume, or address.

- **Announce:** "Using git:triage to inventory your work in progress..."

- ## When to Use

- - Starting your day - "what was I working on?"

- - User asks about git state, worktrees, stashes

- - User wants to clean up old work

- - User says "triage", "inventory", "what's in progress?"

- ## Scope

- Full inventory by default. User can scope to:

- - `worktrees` - just worktrees

- - `stash` - just stashes

- - `branches` - just local branches

- ## Workflow

- ### 1. Gather State

- ```bash

- # Worktrees

- git worktree list --porcelain

- # Stashes

- git stash list

- # Local branches with tracking info

- git branch -vv

- # Current status

- git status --porcelain

- ```

- ### 2. Enrich Each Item

- #### For Worktrees

- For each worktree, gather:

- ```bash

- # Get branch and status

- cd {worktree_path}

- branch=$(git branch --show-current)

- git status --porcelain

- # Check for associated PR

- gh pr list --head {branch} --json number,title,state,url

- # Check for plan file

- ls docs/plans/*{branch-keywords}* 2>/dev/null

- ```

- **If uncommitted changes exist:**

- - List files changed, grouped by directory

- - Summarize what the changes appear to be doing (infer from diff)

- - Show unpushed commit subjects

- #### For Stashes

- ```bash

- # Get stash details

- git stash show stash@{N} --stat

- # Check if source branch still exists

- git branch --list {branch_from_stash_message}

- ```

- #### For Branches

- ```bash

- # Check if merged to main

- git branch --merged main | grep {branch}

- # Get associated PR

- gh pr list --head {branch} --state all --json number,state,url

- # Last commit age

- git log -1 --format="%cr" {branch}

- ```

- ### 3. Present Inventory

- Format with full context:

- ```markdown

- ## Git Triage

- ### Worktrees

- #### `.worktrees/feature-oauth` (feature/oauth)

- - **PR:** https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/1234 (open, 2 approvals)

- - **Plan:** `docs/plans/2025-01-15-oauth-design.md`

- - **Uncommitted:** 3 files in `src/auth/`

- - Adding Google OAuth provider configuration

- - `oauth.ts`, `config.ts`, `types.ts` modified

- - **Unpushed:** 1 commit - "Add OAuth config scaffolding"

- - **Recommendation:** Resume - PR is approved, needs final push

- #### `.worktrees/pr-999-fix-typo`

- - **PR:** https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/999 (merged)

- - **Clean:** No uncommitted changes

- - **Recommendation:** Safe to delete - PR merged

- ---

- ### Stashes

- #### `stash@{0}` - "WIP on feature/auth: debugging session"

- - **Age:** 3 weeks

- - **Source branch:** feature/auth (exists)

- - **Files:** 5 files in `src/auth/`

- - **Recommendation:** Review - branch exists, may be superseded

- #### `stash@{1}` - "WIP on old-feature: abandoned work"

- - **Age:** 2 months

- - **Source branch:** old-feature (deleted)

- - **Recommendation:** Likely safe to drop - source branch gone

- ---

- ### Branches

- #### `feature/old-experiment`

- - **Last commit:** 6 weeks ago

- - **PR:** https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/800 (closed, not merged)

- - **Tracking:** origin/feature/old-experiment (gone)

- - **Recommendation:** Safe to delete - PR closed, remote deleted

- ---

- ## Summary

- - **2 worktrees** (1 active, 1 safe to delete)

- - **2 stashes** (1 to review, 1 likely droppable)

- - **1 branch** safe to delete

- Ready to clean up?

- ```

- ### 4. Offer Actions

- Use AskUserQuestion for cleanup decisions:

- ```

- What would you like to do?

- (A) Delete merged worktree `.worktrees/pr-999-fix-typo`

- (B) Review stash@{0} contents

- (C) Delete stale branch `feature/old-experiment`

- (D) Clean up all safe-to-delete items

- (E) Nothing right now

- ```

- **Never auto-delete** - always require user confirmation.

- For option (D), list exactly what will be deleted and confirm:

+ Inventory git work in progress (worktrees, stashes, local branches, uncommitted work) with enough context to decide what to resume, review, or clean up. The user can scope it to `worktrees`, `stash`, or `branches`; default is everything.

- ```

- This will delete:

- - Worktree: .worktrees/pr-999-fix-typo

- - Branch: feature/old-experiment

- - Stash: stash@{1}

+ ## For each item, find

- Proceed?

- (A) Yes, delete all

- (B) Let me pick individually

- (C) Cancel

- ```

+ - **Worktree:** branch, associated PR (`gh pr list --head <branch> --state all`) with state and a full URL, matching plan file under `docs/plans/`, uncommitted changes summarized by what they appear to do (infer from the diff, don't just count files), and unpushed commit subjects.

+ - **Stash:** age, source branch and whether it still exists, files touched.

+ - **Branch:** last commit age, PR and its state, whether the remote branch is gone. Judge "merged" by the PR state: squash merges don't show up in `git branch --merged`.

- ## Quick Reference

+ ## Present

- | Item | Key Info | Commands |

- |------|----------|----------|

- | Worktree | Branch, PR, plan, uncommitted | `git worktree list`, `gh pr list --head` |

- | Stash | Age, source branch, files | `git stash list`, `git stash show` |

- | Branch | Merged?, PR, tracking, age | `git branch -vv`, `gh pr list --head` |

+ Group by worktrees, stashes, branches. Give every item a recommendation with its reason: resume (PR approved, needs a push), review (stash on a live branch, may be superseded), or safe to delete (PR merged, source branch gone, PR closed and remote deleted). End with a one-line count per group.

- ## Output Guidelines

+ ## Act

- - **Full PR URLs** - always clickable/copy-pasteable

- - **Summarize uncommitted work** - infer purpose from diff, not just file count

- - **Include plan references** - link to docs/plans/ if relevant

- - **Actionable recommendations** - explain why something is safe/needs attention

- - **Never auto-delete** - always confirm destructive actions

+ Offer the cleanup choices: individual items, "all safe-to-delete items", or nothing. **Never auto-delete.** For a bulk cleanup, list exactly what will be deleted and confirm before deleting anything.
