Sequential squash-merge of stacked PR chains into an epic branch. Handles dependency-ordered rebase, collision-safe backup tags, CI monitoring (delegates to /watch-ci), and post-merge verification. Use when: merging a chain of stacked PRs into an epic branch, collapsing a linear PR stack into per-PR squash commits, preparing an epic branch for final review. Triggers on: 'merge PRs into epic', 'squash chain', 'collapse PR stack', 'epic merge', or when user has a linear PR dependency chain…
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
# Epic Merge — Stacked PR Chain Squash-Merge **Read first**: `@skills/push-ci/references/authorization-contract.md` before any push or merge — § Push safety for the credential, the unshared attestation and the force-with-lease rules, § Efficacy Boundary for what the per-iteration approval authorizes. If that Read fails, stop and report it; push and merge nothing. Sequentially squash-merge a chain of stacked PRs into an epic branch, producing one squash commit per PR for clean per-PR review on the epic. Every destructive iteration is gated by `AskUserQuestion` to keep the operator in control. ## When NOT to Use - Single PR merge — use `/create-pr` + GitHub UI - Simple rebase without stacked dependencies — use `/smart-rebase` - Pre-merge conflict / impact analysis only — use `/merge-prep` - Diamond / parallel merge chains — this skill handles **linear chains only** - Repos that use merge-commit or rebase-merge — this skill assumes squash-merge only ## Permissions …

How to install
mdr add sd0xdev/sd0x-harness/epic-merge@sha256:ab1b9cc5c4474cf4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261003.6156945, 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.
