6. Implement the narrow scope only — no unrelated refactors or formatting churn.
7. Add/update focused tests when behavior changes.
8. Run the checks (tests, compile/lint, `git diff --check`, secret scan).
9. Commit with an issue-linked message.
10. Push the branch.
11. Open a PR to `master`.
12. **If you are the author, stop before review/merge.**
13. **Normal issue work must not directly push to `master`.** PR content should be merged through the forge PR merge mechanism.
14. Direct push to `master` is allowed only as a documented recovery exception. If used, the final report must include:
Record the branch name and `HEAD` SHA at validation time — the drift
check in step 9 compares against exactly this state.
9. **Branch proof before commit (#177):** prove and state, immediately
before staging/committing (`author_proofs.verify_branch_for_commit`,
`author_proofs.detect_branch_drift`):
- current branch (`git branch --show-current`) equals the intended
feature branch from the issue claim
- current branch is not `master`, `main`, `develop`, `development`, or
`dev`
- branch and `HEAD` have not changed since validation (step 8) — in a
shared checkout another session may switch branches mid-session;
treat that as expected and **stop before committing** when detected
If any check fails, stop and reconcile; do not commit.
10. Commit with an issue-linked message.
11. **Branch proof before push (#177):** prove that the local branch, the
push target branch, and the intended issue branch all match, and that
none of them is a protected branch
(`author_proofs.verify_push_target`). If a commit accidentally landed
on a protected branch, do **not** push: report the accident and the
exact repair steps (`author_proofs.assess_protected_branch_commit`) —
never silently continue after a repair.
12. Push the branch.
13. Open a PR to `master`. The final report must include the branch proofs
from steps 9 and 11 (`author_proofs.build_commit_push_report`).
14. **If you are the author, stop before review/merge.**
15. **Normal issue work must not directly push to `master`.** PR content should be merged through the forge PR merge mechanism.
16. Direct push to `master` is allowed only as a documented recovery exception. If used, the final report must include:
- why the PR merge path could not be used
- exact commits pushed
- PR metadata state
