Worktree Deliver

Commit all work, push, and create a pull request from the current worktree.

Instructions

You are inside a worktree. Package up the work and deliver it as a PR.

Step 1: Validate Environment

  1. Verify this is a worktree (not the main working tree) using git worktree list
  2. Get current branch: git branch --show-current
  3. Verify branch follows claude/*, claude-daniel/*, or review/* pattern. If not, warn the user and ask if they want to continue.
  4. Read .worktree-task.md if it exists to get the original task description

Step 2: Review Changes

  1. Run git diff --stat and git diff --cached --stat to show all changes
  2. Run git status --short to show the full picture
  3. If there are no changes at all (clean working tree, no commits ahead of main), inform the user there's nothing to deliver and stop.

Step 3: Clean Up Task File

Before staging anything, remove the worktree task file so it doesn't end up in the commit:

bash
rm -f .worktree-task.md

Step 4: Confirm Files to Commit

Use AskUserQuestion to show the user what will be committed and ask for confirmation. List all modified, added, and untracked files.

Options:

  • "Stage all changes" — stage everything
  • "Let me choose" — user will specify which files to include

If the user wants to choose, ask them which files to stage.

Step 5: Stage and Commit

  1. Stage the confirmed files with git add
  2. Generate a commit message following conventional commits format

Commit Message Strategy:

  1. Analyze the diff to determine the conventional commit type:

    • feat: — New functionality, new files, new exports, new API endpoints
    • fix: — Bug fixes, error corrections, fixing broken behavior
    • refactor: — Code restructuring without changing behavior
    • docs: — Documentation only changes
    • test: — Adding or modifying tests
    • chore: — Build scripts, configs, maintenance tasks
  2. Generate a commit message based on:

    • The task description from .worktree-task.md (if it was found)
    • A brief summary of what the diff actually changed
    • Format: <type>: <subject> (max 72 characters)
  3. Show the proposed message to the user with AskUserQuestion:

    • Display the generated message clearly
    • Options: "Use this message" / "Let me write my own"
  4. If user chooses to write their own:

    • Ask them to provide their commit message
    • Validate it follows conventional commits format (warn if not, but allow)
  5. Always include body and co-author:

    • Add a brief body summarizing what changed (2-3 bullet points if multiple changes)
    • Include the standard co-author line
  6. Create the commit with the message using a HEREDOC:

    bash
    git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
    <commit message here>
    EOF
    )"

Step 6: Push

Push the branch to origin:

bash
git push -u origin HEAD

If push fails due to no upstream, the -u flag should handle it. If it fails for another reason, show the error and suggest fixes.

Step 7: Create Pull Request

  1. Determine the base branch (main or master) using the same detection as worktree-init
  2. Create the PR using gh pr create:
bash
gh pr create --base <main-branch> --title "<PR title>" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary

<bullet points describing the changes based on task description and diff>

## Original Task

<task description from .worktree-task.md>

## Changes

<git diff --stat summary>

Created from worktree `claude/<name>` using `/worktree-deliver`
EOF
)"
  1. Display the PR URL prominently

Step 8: Next Steps

Tell the user:

  • PR is ready for review at <URL>
  • After merging, run /worktree-cleanup from the main repo to clean up
  • They can close this terminal panel
