excel-mcp: Command for Claude Code

Create Git Branch

Generate a conventional branch name based on user request and create a new git branch.

Variables

User request: $1

Instructions

Step 1: Check Current Branch

• Check current branch: git branch --show-current
• Check if on main/master:

  CURRENT_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
  if [[ "$CURRENT_BRANCH" != "main" && "$CURRENT_BRANCH" != "master" && "$CURRENT_BRANCH" != "development" ]]; then
    echo "Warning: Currently on branch '$CURRENT_BRANCH', not main/master/development"
    echo "Proceeding with branch creation from current branch"
  fi
  

• Note: We proceed regardless, but log the warning

Step 2: Generate Branch Name

Use conventional branch naming:

Prefixes:

• feat/ - New feature or enhancement
• fix/ - Bug fix
• chore/ - Maintenance tasks (dependencies, configs, etc.)
• docs/ - Documentation only changes
• refactor/ - Code refactoring (no functionality change)
• test/ - Adding or updating tests
• perf/ - Performance improvements

Naming Rules:

• Use kebab-case (lowercase with hyphens)
• Be descriptive but concise (max 50 characters)
• Remove special characters except hyphens
• No spaces, use hyphens instead

Examples:

• "Add user authentication system" → feat/add-user-auth
• "Fix login redirect bug" → fix/login-redirect
• "Update README documentation" → docs/update-readme
• "Refactor database queries" → refactor/database-queries
• "Add unit tests for API" → test/api-unit-tests

Branch Name Generation Logic:

1. Analyze user request to determine type (feature/fix/chore/docs/refactor/test/perf)
2. Extract key action and subject
3. Convert to kebab-case
4. Truncate if needed to keep under 50 chars
5. Validate name is descriptive and follows conventions

Step 3: Check Branch Exists

• Check if branch name already exists:

  if git show-ref --verify --quiet refs/heads/<branch-name>; then
    echo "Branch <branch-name> already exists"
    # Append version suffix
    COUNTER=2
    while git show-ref --verify --quiet refs/heads/<branch-name>-v$COUNTER; do
      COUNTER=$((COUNTER + 1))
    done
    BRANCH_NAME="<branch-name>-v$COUNTER"
  fi
  

• If exists, append -v2, -v3, etc. until unique
