User description

Summary

  • Adds a footgun callout to the sverka-gh-stack skill warning that gh stack submit force-pushes local branch refs to remote
  • Includes a pre-submit SHA verification checklist and a safer REST API alternative (POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/stacks) for linking existing PRs without touching branches
  • Adds rule fix: Core ID assignment — SHA-256 content-addressed IDs (ADR-006) #6 to Conflict prevention rules

Context

Learned from a real incident during dependabot stack remediation (stack #79 → #101). gh stack init adopted existing branch names but local refs pointed at main's HEAD. gh stack submit --auto then force-pushed those wrong refs, destroying 9 remote branches and making all PRs unreopenable. The stack had to be fully recreated with new PRs (#92-#100).

Test plan

  • Skill file is valid markdown with correct frontmatter
  • Footgun callout renders as a blockquote with code blocks
  • REST API example uses correct endpoint syntax

Generated with Devin


Summary by cubic

Adds a footgun warning and safer workflows to the sverka-gh-stack skill to prevent accidental force-pushes and unsafe merges. Also removes the unsupported top-level ignore from nx.json (.nxignore already excludes .worktrees).

  • Before gh stack submit: verify each local branch SHA, create a backup ref, find the owning worktree, validate the target SHA with git cat-file, repair in place, then submit.
  • When adopting existing PRs into a stack: use POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/stacks with PR numbers ordered bottom-to-top; do not use gh stack link with branch names.
  • Sync and merge behavior: if gh stack sync prints “Sync aborted” (exit 0), do not merge—reconcile divergence first. After exit 3, start a new gh stack rebase and continue. Documented gh stack merge as all-or-nothing; merge queues may ignore --squash; verify that lower PRs close.
  • CLI usage: avoid bare gh stack init (interactive); always pass branch arguments.
  • Config: removed the inert ignore block from nx.json; no build behavior change.

Written for commit 389607d. Summary will update on new commits.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to af53d

The PR adds useful safeguards for stacked pull requests, but the current guidance still includes potentially unsafe repair and recovery steps, synchronization behavior that may leave branches divergent, merge instructions that may produce the wrong outcome, and an interactive fallback unsuitable for automation; removing the Nx Cloud workspace ID may also reduce CI cache reuse. These are bounded but concrete merge-readiness risks that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Document safe stacked PR workflow for Gas City

AI Description

• Adds Sverka-specific conventions for planning, creating, syncing, and merging stacked PRs.
• Warns that stack submission force-pushes branches and requires pre-submit SHA verification.
• Documents a branch-safe REST alternative for linking existing pull requests.

High-Level Assessment

Keeping the warning immediately beside the dangerous command, reinforced by a conflict-prevention rule, is the most effective approach. Removing the submit example would obscure the normal new-stack workflow, while recommending REST linking universally would not cover branch submission; the documented split preserves both workflows and clearly identifies their safety boundaries.

Pull Request Overview

This documentation update introduces critical safety warnings and verification steps for the gh stack submit command, alongside a safer REST API alternative for linking Pull Requests. The PR is technically up to standards according to Codacy, and all primary acceptance criteria have been addressed.

However, there is a significant technical conflict in the 'Conflict prevention rules' section: the documentation recommends a multi-worktree workflow but then suggests a bulk gh stack sync command that will fail because Git prohibits updating branches currently checked out in active worktrees. This logic error should be corrected before merging to prevent user frustration.

Additionally, while the safety warnings are valuable, the main workflow examples should be updated to include the proposed verification steps (git log) to ensure users adopt the safer pattern immediately.

About this PR

  • There is an architectural inconsistency in the guide: the document promotes using separate worktrees for each wave of changes but then suggests bulk operations (like gh stack sync) that are fundamentally incompatible with worktrees if those branches are active. The documentation should provide specific instructions for syncing within a worktree-based workflow.
3 comments outside of the diff
[REDACTED:HIGH_ENTROPY]

line 144 🔴 HIGH RISK
The gh stack sync command will fail for any branch in the stack that is currently checked out in a separate worktree. Git prohibits rebasing or updating the HEAD of a branch that is active elsewhere. To maintain a worktree-based workflow, users must run the sync/rebase within each specific worktree or ensure branches are detached before running a bulk sync.

line 75 🟡 MEDIUM RISK
Suggestion: The example command gh stack submit --auto is identified as a 'footgun' at line 79 because it can force-push incorrect local refs. It is safer to show the branch verification steps (git log) as part of the primary example so that users do not skip them.

Consider updating the bash code block to include git log verification for each branch before the 'gh stack submit' command.

line 83 ⚪ LOW RISK
Nitpick: The warning about PRs being 'unreopenable' is a bit imprecise. Force-pushing doesn't block reopening unless the branch is deleted or the PR becomes empty relative to the base. The primary danger of gh stack submit is the silent overwriting of remote work with stale local branch refs.

Test suggestions

  • Verify the inclusion and content of the 'Footgun' warning blockquote regarding force-pushes.
  • Verify the presence of the pre-submit verification steps using git log command examples.
  • Confirm the REST API example for linking PRs uses the correct endpoint and syntax.
  • Verify that Rule #6 is added to the Conflict prevention rules section with consistent guidance.

Action required

1. REST example omits stack ordering ✓ Resolved 🐞 Bug ≡ Correctness
Description
The example presents [92,93,94] as sufficient for creating a stack, but GitHub requires pull
requests in bottom-to-top order and requires each PR base ref to match the previous PR head ref. In
a recovery workflow where existing PRs may not be adjacent or ordered as shown, this request fails
or does not establish the intended stack.
Code

.agents/skills/sverka-gh-stack/SKILL.md[R90-94]

+> **Safer alternative for linking existing PRs into a stack:** use the REST API
+> directly — it creates the stack linkage without touching branch refs:
+> ```bash
+> echo '{"pull_requests":[92,93,94]}' | gh api -X POST repos/OWNER/REPO/stacks --input -
+> ```
Relevance

●●● Strong

The example omits required API ordering constraints, making this a concrete correctness issue in
documentation.

PR-#61

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The official API documentation says the request must contain an ordered bottom-to-top list and that
each pull request’s base ref must match the preceding pull request’s head ref; the added example
gives neither constraint.

The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The REST example omits the API’s required ordering and base/head compatibility constraints, so users may copy the example with arbitrary PR numbers and fail to create the intended stack.

## Issue Context
GitHub’s create-stack REST API requires PR numbers ordered from bottom to top, and each PR base ref must match the previous PR head ref. Explain that the numbers are placeholders and show or state how to verify the chain before posting.

Remediation recommended

2. Force-push claim overstates PR impact ✓ Resolved 🐞 Bug ≡ Correctness
Description
The callout states that gh stack submit will overwrite branches, close all PRs, and make them
unreopenable merely when local refs contain the wrong commits. That conflates the destructive branch
update with PR closure/reopen behavior and gives agents an inaccurate recovery model; the warning
should describe the actual effect of the command and distinguish it from any separate stack/PR state
transition.
Code

.agents/skills/sverka-gh-stack/SKILL.md[R75-80]

+> **Footgun — `gh stack submit` force-pushes local branch refs.**
+> `submit` pushes whatever your local branches point at. If `gh stack init`
+> adopted branch names without the correct SHAs (e.g., local refs still point
+> at `main` after adoption), `submit` will overwrite the remote branches with
+> the wrong commits, close all PRs, and make them unreopenable (GitHub blocks
+> reopening PRs whose branches were force-pushed).
Relevance

●●● Strong

Documentation correction is specific, correctness-focused, and aligns with accepted repository
documentation fixes.

PR-#28
PR-#29

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The changed text explicitly attributes PR closure and permanent inability to reopen to the wrong
local refs, while the official stack API documentation describes stack operations separately and
does not establish that force-pushing alone causes this lifecycle result.

.agents/skills/sverka-gh-stack/SKILL.md[75-80]
🌐 GitHub documents stack creation and pull-request stack operations as separate API operations; the cited create-stack documentation does not state that a branch force-push closes or permanently unreopens pull requests.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The warning makes an unconditional claim that force-pushing wrong commits closes all PRs and makes them unreopenable, which is not established by the command description and overstates the direct effect of a branch update.

## Issue Context
Keep the SHA verification warning, but state precisely that submitting can force-update remote branch refs and thereby replace the commits/PR diffs; only describe closure or inability to reopen if tied to the specific stack command behavior and documented conditions.

Inline comments:
In @.agents/skills/sverka-gh-stack/SKILL.md:
- Around line 4-5: Update the skill frontmatter description to use the canonical
initiative name “v0-port” instead of “v0-n-docs”, keeping the branch and stack
terminology consistent.
- Around line 87-89: Update the local-ref repair step in the worktree workflow
to handle branches checked out by another worktree: identify the owning
worktree, verify it is clean, and reset it to the correct commit, or document an
equivalent worktree-safe repair instead of relying solely on git branch -f.
- Around line 85-86: Update the branch verification step in the stack submission
instructions to obtain each branch’s full SHA with git rev-parse --verify and
compare it against its recorded expected SHA. Apply this exact comparison to
every branch instead of relying on the shortened output from git log --oneline
-1.
- Line 30: Update the markdown in SKILL.md by adding text language identifiers
to the diagram fences near the referenced sections and inserting a blank line
before the REST API fence. Ensure the markdownlint-cli2 findings are cleared
without changing the documented content.
- Around line 156-160: The merge-order guidance is inconsistent across the stack
workflow documentation. Choose one canonical merge procedure, then update the
instructions in the referenced gh-stack and merge-stack skill documents so their
ordering, PR handling, and sync steps consistently describe that procedure.
- Around line 102-104: Update the gh stack link usage in the documented workflow
to reference existing pull request numbers, or use the REST API, instead of
branch names; avoid commands that can push local branches or create pull
requests.
- Around line 148-152: Update the sync-conflict guidance to state that after `gh
stack sync` exits 3, the stack is restored with no rebase in progress: run `gh
stack rebase`, resolve and stage conflicts, then run `gh stack rebase
--continue` followed by `gh stack push`.
- Around line 202-203: Correct the documentation around gh stack unstack and gh
stack init so they are not described as renaming branches. State that unstack
removes stack tracking and init adopts or creates branches; reference gh stack
modify for branch renames, or provide a tested non-interactive migration
procedure.
- Around line 140-145: Update the sync workflow guidance so that after gh stack
sync exits with status 3, the mayor first runs gh stack rebase, then resolves
conflicts, stages the resolutions, and continues with gh stack rebase
--continue. Replace any claim that wave-b automatically changes its GitHub base
to main with an instruction to verify the PR base after sync.

init because it opens interactive prompts.

instructions to accurately describe gh stack merge behavior, including
merge-queue cases where the stack may be split into multiple merge groups.
Remove claims that the top PR always becomes one squash commit or that lower PRs
are necessarily closed, and document the required final-state checks, including
verifying PR bases and statuses, or provide a separately tested manual merge
procedure.
- Around line 89-92: Update the branch-repair instructions around git branch -f
and git reset --hard to require identifying the owning worktree, confirming the
target branch and clean status, validating correct-sha, and creating a backup
ref before rewriting. State that git branch -f is allowed only when the branch
is not checked out; otherwise perform the reset from its owning worktree.

…kill

- Make branch repair explicit and reversible: create backup ref before
  rewriting, identify owning worktree, validate correct-sha exists
- Handle `Sync aborted` (exit 0, diverged stacks) separately from exit 3
  — do not proceed with merging until divergence is reconciled
- Align merge procedure with actual `gh stack merge` behavior: document
  all-or-nothing semantics, merge queue ignoring --squash, and verify
  lower PR closure rather than assuming
- Warn that bare `gh stack init` starts interactive prompts and blocks
  agents — always pass branch arguments

Nx 23.1.1 does not support a top-level `ignore` property in `nx.json`.
The `.nxignore` file already excludes `.worktrees`, so this block has no
effect. Removing it to avoid confusion.

The `nxCloudId` removal in af53d54 was intentional — the old Nx Cloud
org was deleted and a new one is configured via `nx connect`. Restoring
the stale ID would be harmful.
