Refresh a local git repo back to a clean current default branch: fetch/prune, detect the remote HEAD, fast-forward main/master by --ff-only, delete merged local branches, and offer gated cleanup for upstream-gone, squash-merged, stale, or force-delete branch pruning. Use when the user asks to clean up branches, refresh main, refresh master, delete merged branches, get back to a clean main, prune stale local branches, or tidy local branches after merged PRs. Invoke only on that explicit request…
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
# git_refresh
<git_refresh_skill>
<objective>Refresh the current repository to its remote default branch and remove only branch refs whose deletion is provably safe by default.</objective>
<command_intent>fetch and prune, switch to the detected default branch, fast-forward only, delete cleanly merged local branches, and report gated branch cleanup candidates</command_intent>
<path_resolution>
Bundled scripts live in `scripts/` next to this `SKILL.md`. Resolve the helper path by combining the directory of this `SKILL.md` with `scripts/refresh_repo.sh` and invoke the absolute path. If the first invocation reports a missing file, re-resolve the absolute path once before treating the script as failed. Open `references/manual_fallback.md` only after the script exits non-zero after that retry.

How to install
mdr add theafh/ai-modules/git_refresh@sha256:0e6eeb951af75ad8The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, 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.
