sync

A branch-synchronisation command for a Git repository, where branches are separate lines of development. It carries merged changes from hotfix to dev, then main, and finally release.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a pull request is merged into hotfix to update dev, main, and release in sequence, then report the resulting commits and states.
Why use it?
It removes the repetitive work of fetching, merging, pushing, and returning to the expected branch after a hotfix is merged.

Command for Claude Code

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 17 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 477 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sync scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Sync Branches (standalone utility — not part of the workflow)

PR: $ARGUMENTS (if empty, finds the most recent merged PR)

After you approve and merge a PR into hotfix, run this to propagate changes to the other branches.

Branch flow

hotfix (receives PRs from feature branches)
  ↓ sync
dev (development branch)
  ↓ sync
main (stable reference)
  ↓ sync
release (release branch)

Process

1. Find the merged PR

# If argument given, use it. Otherwise find most recent merged PR to hotfix.
gh pr list --base hotfix --state merged --limit 1

2. Fetch latest

git fetch origin

3. Sync dev to hotfix

git checkout dev
git pull origin dev
git merge origin/hotfix --no-edit
git push origin dev

4. Sync main to dev

git checkout main
git pull origin main
git merge origin/dev --no-edit
git push origin main

5. Sync release to main

git checkout release
git pull origin release
git merge origin/main --no-edit
git push origin release

6. Return to dev

git checkout dev

7. Report

Done. All branches contain the latest work.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
