Wrap up a branch — run tests, create PR, merge or discard — use when implementation is done.
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
# Finishing a Development Branch **Your first output line MUST be:** `🐙 **CLAUDE OCTOPUS ACTIVATED** - Branch Completion` ## Overview Full ship pipeline: tests → multi-provider review → version bump → changelog → commit → push → PR. **Core principle:** Verify tests → Review diff → Bump version → Update changelog → Present options → Execute choice → Clean up. --- ## The Process ### Step 1: Verify Tests Pass **Before anything else, verify tests pass:** ```bash # Detect and run project's test suite if [[ -f "package.json" ]]; then npm test elif [[ -f "pytest.ini" ]] || [[ -f "pyproject.toml" ]]; then pytest elif [[ -f "Cargo.toml" ]]; then cargo test elif [[ -f "go.mod" ]]; then go test ./... elif [[ -f "Makefile" ]] && grep -q '^test:' Makefile; then make test fi ``` **If tests fail:** STOP. Show failures. Do not proceed. **If tests pass:** Continue to Step 2. --- ### Step 2: Multi-Provider Diff Review **Run a quick multi-provider review of the changes before shipping.** This catches issues before they reach PR reviewers. ```bash # Get the diff summary DIFF_STAT=$(git diff --stat $(git merge-base HEAD main)..HEAD) …

How to install
mdr add nyldn/claude-octopus/skill-finish-branch@sha256:f6baec11ced4b8d8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261108.8380d65, 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.
