name sync-upstream description Update a stale session branch by rebasing onto the latest origin. Use when the upstream has moved significantly and the session needs to catch up, resolving conflicts by preserving upstream changes and adapting session work to fit. Update Branch Rebase the current session branch onto the latest upstream so the work stays grounded in origin. Workflow If there are uncommitted changes, use the /commit skill to commit them first. Fetch the latest upstream and rebase onto it: git fetch origin git rebase origin/main Use the appropriate base branch if it is not main . Conflict Resolution When conflicts arise, upstream always wins : Never alter upstream logic, APIs, or patterns to accommodate session changes. Adapt session work to fit the new upstream — rename, restructure, or rewrite as needed while preserving the session's goals. After resolving each conflict, git add the files and git rebase --continue . Validation After the rebase completes, verify the result still compiles and meets the session's objectives. If session changes no longer make sense against the updated upstream, explain what changed and propose a revised approach.
