Clean copy

Reimplement the current branch on a new branch with a clean, narrative-quality commit history suitable for reviewer comprehension.

Workflow

1. Gather context:
   • Source branch: git branch --show-current.
   • Working tree: git status --short.
   • Commits since main: git log main..HEAD --oneline.
   • Diff summary: git diff main...HEAD --stat.
2. Validate the source branch:
   • Ensure there are no uncommitted changes or merge conflicts.
   • Confirm the source branch is up to date with main.
3. Choose the new branch name:
   • Use the user's requested name when provided.
   • Otherwise use <source-branch>-clean.
4. Analyze the diff:
   • Study all changes between the source branch and main.
   • Understand the final intended state before recreating it.
5. Create the clean branch from main.
6. Plan the commit storyline:
   • Break the implementation into self-contained logical steps.
   • Each step should read like a stage of development in a tutorial.
7. Reimplement the work:
   • Recreate the final changes step by step.
   • Commit after each coherent idea.
   • Use clear commit subjects and descriptions.
   • Use git commit --no-verify for intermediate commits so hooks do not block temporarily incomplete states.
8. Verify correctness:
   • Confirm the final clean branch state exactly matches the original source branch.
   • Run the final commit without --no-verify so normal checks run.
9. Open a pull request using the pr skill.
   • Include a link to the original branch in the PR description.

Rules

• Never add yourself or an AI tool as an author, contributor, or co-author.
• Never include AI attribution in commits or PR content.
• The final clean branch must be identical to the source branch.
• Do not force push unless the user explicitly asks for it.
