Finishes development branches by running the full test suite, detecting your project environment, and presenting integration options. Use this when implementation is complete and you're ready to merge, deploy, or hand off. Notable for its systematic approach: it won't let you proceed with failing tests, and it adapts to different tech stacks (Node, Rust, Python, Go, etc.).
- Runs full test suite and blocks if tests fail, with detailed failure reports
- Auto-detects project type and environment to present relevant integration paths
- Offers merge, deploy, or cleanup options based on your git/CI setup
- Cleans up branch artifacts and provides completion summary
