What it does

Finishing A Development Branch is an agent skill from 6BNBN/FlowPilot. Use when implementation work is done and you need to decide how to finish it in Cursor, such as keeping the branch, merging locally, creating a pull request, or cleaning up temporary workspaces.

Its SKILL.md is about 260 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Git worktrees and Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: 一句需求,自动拆任务、并行多代理写码、断点恢复、验证收尾。FlowPilot 让 Claude Code / Codex / Cursor / snow-cli 进入真正的自动开发流程。 The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementation work is done and you need to decide how to finish it in Cursor
  • Such as keeping the branch
  • Merging locally
  • Creating a pull request

Example prompts

  • “/finishing-a-development-branch”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Verify the relevant tests, builds, or checks.
  2. Confirm the current branch and base branch.
  3. Present clear finish options to the user.
  4. Execute only the option the user chooses.
  5. Clean up temporary branches or worktrees only when appropriate.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 57b1d49. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Finishing A Development Branch loads about 257 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 119 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~257

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Finishing A Development Branch

Goal

Close out development work cleanly and safely.

Workflow

  1. Verify the relevant tests, builds, or checks.
  2. Confirm the current branch and base branch.
  3. Present clear finish options to the user.
  4. Execute only the option the user chooses.
  5. Clean up temporary branches or worktrees only when appropriate.
  • merge locally
  • push and create a pull request
  • keep the branch as-is
  • discard the work after explicit confirmation

Rules

  • Do not offer completion options until verification has run.
  • Do not discard work without an explicit confirmation step.
  • Do not force-push unless the user explicitly asks.
  • If a worktree was used, only clean it up when the chosen finish path makes that safe.
