triage

Git Triage

Overview

Full inventory of your git work state with rich context for decision-making. Shows worktrees, stashes, branches, and uncommitted work with enough detail to decide what to clean up, resume, or address.

Announce: "Using git:triage to inventory your work in progress..."

When to Use

• Starting your day - "what was I working on?"
• User asks about git state, worktrees, stashes
• User wants to clean up old work
• User says "triage", "inventory", "what's in progress?"

Scope

Full inventory by default. User can scope to:

• worktrees - just worktrees
• stash - just stashes
• branches - just local branches

Workflow

1. Gather State

# Worktrees
git worktree list --porcelain

# Stashes
git stash list

# Local branches with tracking info
git branch -vv

# Current status
git status --porcelain

2. Enrich Each Item

For Worktrees

For each worktree, gather:

# Get branch and status
cd {worktree_path}
branch=$(git branch --show-current)
git status --porcelain

# Check for associated PR
gh pr list --head {branch} --json number,title,state,url

# Check for plan file
ls docs/plans/*{branch-keywords}* 2>/dev/null

If uncommitted changes exist:

• List files changed, grouped by directory
• Summarize what the changes appear to be doing (infer from diff)
• Show unpushed commit subjects

For Stashes

# Get stash details
git stash show stash@{N} --stat

# Check if source branch still exists
git branch --list {branch_from_stash_message}

For Branches

# Check if merged to main
git branch --merged main | grep {branch}

# Get associated PR
gh pr list --head {branch} --state all --json number,state,url

# Last commit age
git log -1 --format="%cr" {branch}

3. Present Inventory
