concurrent-branches SKILL.md skillA

concurrent-branches from kajisho5/ffmpeg-skill is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add kajisho5/ffmpeg-skill/concurrent-branches@git:20260906.24c1610

Pins git:20260906.24c1610 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Resolve conflicts and merges when several branches are open against one repo at the same time — the hotspot files every change must touch (registry manifests, a single version field, shared tool config, one aggregated test module, tracked build output), union-vs-recompute-vs-rebuild as three different correct resolutions, generated artifacts that must never be merged, non-deterministic serialization that makes every branch conflict, renumbered identifiers that git cannot show you, and why a…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Merging Concurrent Branches

When several branches are open against the same repo at once, the conflicts do
not land in the code you were thinking about. They land in a small, predictable
set of **hotspot** files that nearly every change has to touch — a registry
manifest, a version field, shared tool config, one aggregated test module, a
tracked build output.

Each hotspot has exactly one correct resolution, and they are not the same rule.
"Take ours" / "take theirs" is right for almost none of them. Worse, getting one
wrong is silent: the dropped entry, the collided version, the stale bundle all
merge green and are found later by someone who cannot reproduce them.

## Find the hotspots before you need to resolve them

Files touched by nearly every commit are the files your branch will conflict on.

```bash
# the 15 files most commits touch — your hotspot list
git log --format= --name-only -n 200 | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -15
```

Write the resolution rule for each one into the contributing docs. Under
conflict pressure, with a stale branch and a red CI run, nobody re-derives
"the version field is recomputed, not merged" correctly.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kajisho5/ffmpeg-skill/concurrent-branches@sha256:07b9d877010b56a9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.24c1610, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
