roo-conflict-resolution

A procedure for resolving Git merge conflicts, which happen when different changes affect the same code. It uses commit history, messages, and line ownership to understand the intended result.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for conflicts during pull requests, rebasing, or other Git merges, including reviewing blame and commit context before editing the result.
Why use it?
It helps decide which conflicting changes to keep or combine instead of resolving conflicts by guesswork.

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

roo-conflict-resolution 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 3d ago.

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.

Roo Code Conflict Resolution Skill

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the task involves:

  • Resolving merge conflicts for a specific pull request
  • Rebasing a branch that has conflicts with the target branch
  • Understanding and analyzing conflicting code changes
  • Making intelligent decisions about which changes to keep, merge, or discard
  • Using git history to inform conflict resolution decisions

When NOT to Use This Skill

Do NOT use this skill when:

  • There are no merge conflicts to resolve
  • The task is about general code review without conflicts
  • You're working on fresh code without any merge scenarios

Workflow Overview

This skill resolves merge conflicts by analyzing git history, commit messages, and code changes to make intelligent resolution decisions. Given a PR number (e.g., "#123"), it handles the entire conflict resolution process.

Initialization Steps

Step 1: Parse PR Number

Extract the PR number from input like "#123" or "PR #123". Validate that a PR number was provided.

Step 2: Fetch PR Information

gh pr view [PR_NUMBER] --json title,body,headRefName,baseRefName

Get PR title and description to understand the intent and identify the source and target branches.

Step 3: Checkout PR Branch and Prepare for Rebase

gh pr checkout [PR_NUMBER] --force
git fetch origin main
GIT_EDITOR=true git rebase origin/main
  • Force checkout the PR branch to ensure clean state
  • Fetch the latest main branch
  • Attempt to rebase onto main to reveal conflicts
  • Use GIT_EDITOR=true to ensure non-interactive rebase

Step 4: Check for Merge Conflicts

git status --porcelain
git diff --name-only --diff-filter=U

Identify files with merge conflicts (marked with 'UU') and create a list of files that need resolution.

Main Workflow Phases

Phase 1: Conflict Analysis

Analyze each conflicted file to understand the changes:

  1. Read the conflicted file to identify conflict markers
  2. Extract the conflicting sections between <<<<<<< and >>>>>>>
  3. Run git blame on both sides of the conflict
  4. Fetch commit messages and diffs for relevant commits
  5. Analyze the intent behind each change

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.
