Summary & Motivation

Enhance the ai_update_pr command documentation with comprehensive workflow improvements to prevent common errors and ensure accurate PR updates.

The key improvement is adding a mandatory Step 0 that requires inspecting the actual repository state before proceeding. This prevents the command from making incorrect assumptions based on stale context or previous conversation history.

Key changes:

  • Step 0: Always inspect repository state first using git branch --show-current, gt ls -s, and git status
  • Step 1: Detailed guidance on identifying the previous branch with clear examples and visual diagrams
  • Step 2: Better verification instructions to ensure correct branch identification
  • Step 3: Added commit message updating functionality

The updated documentation includes concrete examples showing how to read gt ls -s output correctly and emphasizes that the previous branch is the one immediately AFTER the current branch (marked with ◉) in the stack listing.

How I Tested These Changes

Manually verified the command workflow by following the new Step 0 instructions and confirming accurate branch identification and diff generation.
