# Finishing a Development Branch

## Overview

Verify tests, present structured options, execute chosen workflow, clean up.

**Core principle:** Verify tests -> Present options -> Execute choice -> Clean up.

## Options

1. Merge back to base branch locally
2. Push and create a Pull Request
3. Keep the branch as-is
4. Discard this work (requires typed confirmation)

## Process

1. Verify all tests pass (STOP if they fail)
2. Determine base branch
3. Present exactly 4 options
4. Execute chosen option
5. Clean up worktree (Options 1 and 4 only)
