Git Commit, Push & PR (CLI-only)

Stage all changes except anything under agent-output/, infra/, or .github/skills/sensei/ (the sensei exclusion is lifted only when the current branch is feat/skills-sensei), auto-generate a conventional commit, push to the current branch, then ask whether to open a new PR or update an existing one. Uses git and gh only — no MCP tools.

Scope

• Workspace must be a git repository with origin configured.
• gh CLI must be authenticated (GH_TOKEN is set in the devcontainer).
• Excluded paths (always): agent-output/, infra/.
• Excluded path (conditional): .github/skills/sensei/ — included only when git branch --show-current returns feat/skills-sensei.
• Never commit to main. Never force-push.

Inputs

Variable	Source	Default
subject	argument-hint or generated from diff	auto
branch	git branch --show-current	current branch
sensei	derived: branch == feat/skills-sensei	exclude sensei
pr_mode	user choice (new / update / skip)	ask
pr_base	user choice	main

Workflow

Step 0 — Compute the exclusion pathspec

Resolve the active branch and build the pathspec used by every subsequent git command:

BRANCH="$(git branch --show-current)"
if [[ "$BRANCH" == "feat/skills-sensei" ]]; then
  EXCLUDES=(':!agent-output' ':!infra')
else
  EXCLUDES=(':!agent-output' ':!infra' ':!.github/skills/sensei')
fi

Every git add/git status/git diff command below uses -- . "${EXCLUDES[@]}" to apply the exclusion list consistently. If the user is on feat/skills-sensei the sensei skill files are eligible for staging; on every other branch they are skipped.

Step 1 — Inspect

Run these in parallel and show the output:

echo "$BRANCH"
git status --short -- . "${EXCLUDES[@]}"
git diff --stat HEAD -- . "${EXCLUDES[@]}"
