Supporting Evidence

Ship the current feature branch: commit all changes, push, and open a PR.

Steps:

  1. Run git status (no -uall flag), git diff (staged + unstaged), and git log --oneline -5 to understand the current state.
  2. Stage all relevant changed/new files (prefer naming files explicitly over git add -A). Do NOT stage files that likely contain secrets.
  3. Write a concise commit message (1-2 sentences) focusing on the "why". End the message with: 
    Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
    Use a HEREDOC to pass the commit message.
  4. Push the branch to the remote with -u.
  5. Create a PR with gh pr create. The PR body must include:
    • ## Summary (1-3 bullet points)
    • ## Test plan (bulleted checklist)
    • Footer: Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Use a HEREDOC for the body.
  6. Print the PR URL when done.

If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as additional context for the commit message.
