Use when the feature is implementation-complete and the next step is 'ship it' — verifies, cleans up, routes to merge/PR/park/discard; never destroys work without explicit confirmation.
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 ## When to use * Implementation of a feature or bug fix is complete on a development branch * All planned commits are in, the user is ready to hand off * You are about to say "done" and suggest the next action * The branch has been idle and the user wants to decide its fate Do NOT use when: * Still implementing — use targeted verification, not the ship gate * A PR already exists and is mid-review — use [`receiving-code-review`](../receiving-code-review/SKILL.md) * Only documentation changed and no tests apply — simplify to commit + PR without the full gate ## Goal Route a finished branch to its next state **with evidence** — merged, pushed for PR, parked, or discarded. Never let a half-verified branch become a PR. Never destroy work without explicit confirmation. ## The Iron Law ``` NO MERGE, NO PR, NO DISCARD WITHOUT VERIFIED TESTS + EXPLICIT CHOICE. ``` Skipping verification because "it worked a minute ago" is how broken `main` happens. Discarding because "I assumed the user meant it" is how work gets lost. ## Procedure ### 1. Inspect the current branch state Before presenting any options, gather context. Do not assume — check: …

How to install
mdr add event4u-app/agent-config/finishing-a-development-branch@sha256:3c99950b64e4174eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.8f47545, 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.
