Enhances the pr-creator skill to enforce stricter safety checks and non-interactive workflows.

Changes

  • Branch Verification: Explicitly checks if the current branch is main and instructs the user to switch to a descriptive branch.
  • Commit Enforcement: Adds a step to verify and commit changes before proceeding.
  • Safety Rails: Adds a critical safety rail to double-check the branch name before pushing.
  • Non-Interactive Push: Uses git push -u origin HEAD to ensure the push is non-interactive for new branches, preventing CLI hangs.
  • Safety Principle: Elevates "NEVER push to main" to a core principle.

Validation

  • Validated via npm run preflight (noting an unrelated timeout in read-file.test.ts which appears flaky/independent).
  • Verified prompts.test.ts passes with updated snapshots.
